  1. Buying a house with management (Residence gérée): The net annual income of different types of managed houses (tourism, senior housing, student housing, etc.) on the market is about 4%. If you can use the loan cost of about 1% to "leverage" , If you can also take advantage of different tax incentives to reduce or exempt taxes, the comprehensive investment return will be very gratifying.

  2. The key to investment is to find a good professional management company (after the first phase of the 12-year lease expires, the contract conditions and prospects for the next phase) to invest in the location of the property (the potential for appreciation when selling).

  3. Buying a vacant house and handing it over to a professional company for management: the advantage is freedom, but it requires more energy investment: house renovation and maintenance, cost of vacant time, rental costs, management costs, etc.
