Local Taxation: Support Linked To the Life Cycle of Your Buildings

Does your company have premises? Property tax consultants help you reduce the office tax and the parking space tax.

The first element to examine is the area of ​​the room: you can quite easily determine its real area. On the other hand, the weighted area, which is based on the application of correct weights, is much more difficult to calculate.

The second element is (in general) the term of comparison: is its size, its activity, its location, its composition comparable to those of your premises? With the revision of the rental values ​​of professional premises, which entered into force in 2017, the comparison term has been replaced by a category of premises + a geographical sector + a rate based on the departmental tariff schedule. dra. minguita padilla
