Several examples we will help to include/understand how much it is advisable to be careful even with its grandchildren! With)
1st example: You have real goods and you decide to place your grandson in a Parisian apartment (or other) in order to facilitate the continuation of its studies to him.

1 - Advantages and disadvantages of the hiring: If your grandson pours you a rent, it is about a lease of dwelling subjected to the law of July 6, 1989 even if there is no written contract.
The Disadvantage is for you if your small-child has suddenly married, to live in cohabitation or with PACSER.
Indeed and according to this law, his wife will become cotitulaire lease i.e. that it will have right has to be maintained in the rented places.
And it will be the same for his concubine (beyond of a year of common life) or her partner for PACS.
Consequently if you wish to perceive a rent, there remains preferable to establish a lease which will stipulate the amount of the rent, the methods of its revision and the date of the beginning of the hiring.
However, Take Guard not to authorize a too favorable rent to him! Indeed, if the TAX DEPARTMENT considers that it is abnormally low (price much lower than those practised on the real market), you will be liable to a rectification and the tax will be calculated on the normal rental value. Consequence: the tax will be higher or equal to the boxed rents.
Advantages: Thus, if you grant to him a preferential but reasonable rent compared to the prices of the market, this hiring can prove fiscally interesting if Housing is located in a building requiring of the expensive renovation work (maintenance, repair, improvement, installation of elevator) Why? because n the other hand from the rents (returned land) to declare you can deduce the loads related with this income.
These loads are certainly repairs but also the Land Tax and the Interests of the loan necessary to acquisition. Moreover, if these loads prove to be higher than the rents, these losses (except interests of loans) will be ascribable on your Taxable Total Income (within the limit of 10.000/an).
(Caution, it is not taken into account in this study special tax devices the such microphone-land mode/BESSON or PERISSOL) In conclusion, the hiring can prove financially or fiscally dangerous have regard to the sentimental relations leading to rebates which the TAX DEPARTMENT would be likely to rectify.
The whole is to find a right balance between will to help its grandchildren (a preferential rent) and your financial and tax interests. The Loan of a housing to its grandchildren will occult these tax problems but will not bring any financial interest.

 2 - Advantages and disadvantages of the Loan:
No lease to write, indeed, to place free at the disposal of its grandson an apartment constitutes a loan with use (article 1875 of the civil code) because no rent is required.
However, it is always preferable to write a contract specifying that it is about a loan, that he is personal (i.e. only affected at the disposal of your grandchildren), and fixing a term (end of its studies for example) in order to facilitate the recovery of your real estate.
- Any legal obligation, Burden-sharing, with you to put agreement to you on such a distribution!
- Fiscally, not of imposition bus not of payment of rents! (unless the tax authorities prove that a rent is versed)
- No imposition of your small-child on this advantage
- No deduction of loads related with this apartment will be acceptable since you do not declare any income land.
- However, you indebted summers of the Land Tax and your grandson will be to it Tax of Dwelling. Thus the loan fiscally appears interesting even if if financially it does not bring anything. Consequently with you to find the right balance of your interests between the hiring and the loan. B)
2nd example: If you prefer to bring money to your grandchildren, several legal instruments are with your service.
1-to carry out a Donation To give can part of its inheritance (of alive sound) to its grandchildren seem natural and stripped of dispute? FORGERY: family quarrels and tax department prove the opposite as regards donation. has)
- Principle of the frankness from tax of a donation of 15.000 (every 10 years for each ascending) Beyond this sum the donation will be chargeable: 5% until 7.500, 10% between 7,5 and 10.000, 15% between 10 and 15.000, 20% between 15.000 and 480.000
However caution not to be encroached on the hereditary reserve that the law grants to your own children. Indeed, the civil code organized a protection of the children against the lightness or the bad intention of the parents who cannot have (i.e. give) all their inheritance.
A share of your inheritance is reserved for your children, it is the hereditary reserve! If you encroach above, from your death your children will be able to request the restitution of the sums which were given (for more detail on this subject to refer to our Succession file).
b) Interest of the notarial act and the declaration
- It is an obligation if it is about a real estate.
- If it is about a manual gift of money, the Law of 1992 imposes a declaration and payment of the tax in the month which follows. The interest for the recipient lies in the unquestionable date which the declaration confers on the donation, thus in 10 years it will be able to profit again from a donation.
The interest of the giver to pay the tax (beyond the sum of 15.000) will lie in the absence of payment of back taxes in the event of control of the tax department, in the intervention of the notary who will prevent that the sum given encroaches on the hereditary reserve.
However you will have to discharge the fees and expenses of acts from approximately 3% of the transmitted amounts.

 2 - To save You wish to constitute a capital for your grandchildren so that they do not spend of a blow the money which they will need later. For this reason, several form of saving are proposed to you
The traditional Booklet of Saving, possibility of opening, as of the birth of the child and with its name, a booklet A (Station or Savings bank) is a Bleu booklet (with the Mutual Credit) limited to the sum of 15.000, and which have as principal interests to bring back 3% of frankness from tax.
When with the Young Booklet, it can be open only to 12 years for a maximum amount of 15.000, of frankness from tax and witha rate freely fixed by the banks (approximately 3,20%).
In all the cases, the minor because of his incapacity needs a parental authorization to carry out withdrawals (up to 16 years, starting from this age the minor is entitled to the withdrawal except opposition of the parents)
Far from gravitational are the not regulated banking booklets, fiscally taxable (25% of levy at source), remuneration seems weak (2%).
Interests of the saving housing, it allows obtaining an affected loan the purchase of a housing (approximately 5% without insurance) with the proviso of not withdrawing during at least 4 years. The PEL brings back 4,5%/an with a limited amount of 55.000.
3 - Concerning the transferable securities The Stock Exchange constituting a riskier placement, nevertheless in certain connections such a placement can prove to be interesting. - It is fiscally more advantageous to give its transferable securities to its grandchildren than to sell them and to reassign the appreciation of it. Why?
Because by selling your titles you will be imposed on 26% on the appreciation, whereas by carrying out a donation escape to you from it! Of surcroit, when your small-child decides certainly to sell his titles (given), it will be imposed but on the difference between their value on the day of the donation and that on the day of the sale.
Another interesting tax instrument, the PEA: It is about a plan of saving having for object of the actions. The placement remains risky because of the stock exchange fluctuations and your aptitude to anticipate them.
However this instrument makes it possible to make escape the tax the movable appreciations if you respect the obligations which are obligations there.
In short, each taxpayer has right only to one PEA, possible payment until 82.000 to profit from the frankness from income tax and appreciations you cannot carry out any withdrawal before 5 years (except social taking away).
If you withdraw before this date, you are taxable at the rate of 22.5% if the plan with less than 2 years, 16% if it has between 2 and 5 years plus the social taking away. C) financial assistance serat it deductible from your assessed income?
It is possible to think that the assistance addressed to his/her small-child is not taxable in what it constitutes a load. This reasoning is neither true nor false, it must be moderate according to 2 situations.
1 - Your small-child is major If it is not attached any more to the tax hearth of his parents and that these cannot assume its needs any more (see partially), the assistance that you will bring to him will be deductible only with height from 3.000 approximately.
2 - If he is a minor The maintenance obligation that the law provides relates to the ascending ones and descendants in hot line.
However a hierarchy exists between these obliged, the parents initially, the grandparents then if the parents do not manage to assume. Since the child is a minor, you thus have any obligation no deduction.
However if you absolutely make a point of contributing to the rectification of a precarious financial standing of your family, it will be permissible for you to pour a pension with your children (parents) which will be deductible (since they are your children) with height from 3.000 approximately.
Thus in the case of minority of the small-child him versed step directly the money, contributed to its blooming via his/her parents and the sum above will be deductible !
