Glossary

Every term, input and calculated figure used in this app: what it means, how the app calculates it, and its standard name in the real-estate finance literature.

Differs from textbookInconsistencyArchived“Differs from textbook” = the app deliberately calculates it another way (explained). “Inconsistency” = the label and the number behind it don’t match, or two places in the app disagree. “Archived” = no longer shown in the app, kept for reference. Code names are in small grey type.

Tax — owned personally, furnished (LMNP régime réel)

A furnished rental you own yourself, not through a company: the rent is taxed in your own income tax, after the real costs and the wear-and-tear of the building and the furniture. These are the words behind the LMNP report and its "Where the money goes" page (one owner, a personal rental account, the tax office).

Tax — owned personally, unfurnished (micro-foncier)

An unfurnished rental you own yourself, with a rent excluding charges of at most €15,000 a year: income tax and social contributions are paid on 70% of that rent (a flat 30% allowance replaces every cost), and the tax on the gain when you sell. These are the words behind its "Where the money goes" page (one owner, a personal rental account, the tax office).
