Example viager in Rochefort

Take a 48 m² flat, the median size of the sales in Rochefort. At the median price of €2,300/m², it is worth about €110,000 vacant. Sold as an occupied viager by a woman aged 80:

Vacant value€110,000floor area × median price

Bouquet€20,90030% of the occupied value, paid on signing
Fair rente€390 /monthindex-linked, for 11.2 years on average

Where these figures come from

Prices come from actual sales recorded by the French tax authority (the DVF database): only sales of a single house or a single flat, with no commercial premises. The median price is the one that splits the sales into two halves; it is brought to the level of the last 12 months using the price trend of the département.

In an occupied viager, the buyer pays the value of the property minus the value of the use the seller keeps. This occupied value is split between a bouquet, paid upfront, and a rente paid for life. To check a specific listing, the simulator compares the property with the closest sales and calculates the yield after all costs.
