A freehold holiday home that makes sense. Use it for your holidays, then when you are not using it, the operator, Domaine & Demeure will rent your home for you and simply share the rental income with you. Easy and hassle free. These properties are designed to be holiday homes rather than second homes or full-time homes. They are designed for people who want a holiday home in France without the stresses that come with trying to manage a holiday home from another country. For people who are looking for a hands off experience of owning a property in France they are fantastic. The basic principle is that you use the property for your holidays and then it is rented out by Domaine & Demeure when you are not using it. All rental income is shared between the owner (55%) and D&D (45%). There are annual management charges where owners pay D&D to manage their houses and the estate. These costs are based on the actual running costs of the estate plus a 20% margin for D&D to provide this service. I like to suggest to potential buyers that their share of rental income would typically cover the costs of the management charges so that they end up at the end of the year with a zero balance and so effectively have their property fully managed for free. Typically, owners do end up making a profit at the end of the year but I prefer that this profit is not the main focus of a decision to buy.
