Usufruit and real estate sales Massy Palaiseau Chilly-Mazarin

Discover how usufruct changes buying, selling or succession strategies in the Massy, Palaiseau and Chilly-Mazarin area. Usufruct lets you transfer and occupy a home, invest at a lower cost, or plan a succession while retaining use of your property.

Usufruct separates everyday use of a property from its ownership. The usufructuary enjoys the home, whether by living in it or renting it out, while the bare owner holds the legal title and regains full control at the end of the arrangement.

"Usufruct is the asset solution that optimizes transmission and adapts your investment to market shifts."

How real estate usufruct works

Usufruct divides daily management and ownership. The usufructuary keeps the property in good condition, pays ongoing fees and taxes, and collects any rent. When selling a property subject to usufruct, both parties must agree. However, each can sell their portion independently. In a joint sale, the division of proceeds depends on the usufructuary’s age, ensuring fair compensation.

Also applies to movable assets and inheritance

In an inheritance, the surviving spouse may choose usufruct on the home and its furniture. Children get bare ownership. New furniture bought during usufruct belongs personally to the usufructuary.

Why buy or sell under usufruct?

Purchasing under usufruct reduces up-front costs and generates rental income. The local market varies from 3,900 to 4,700 euros per square meter. Sellers avoid property management and anticipate future asset recovery.
