Your profit (or your gain) corresponds to the difference between the price at which you sell now and the price you yourself paid at the time of purchase.<\/p>\n<h3>Deductions are possible<\/h3>\n<p>Dans certains cas, il est possible de r\u00e9duire ce montant imposable\u00a0:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>In certain cases, it is possible to reduce the taxable amount: you can deduct the amount of <strong>the brokerage commission form the selling price.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>To increase the value of your purchase, add:\n<ul>\n<li><strong>The acquisition costs<\/strong>\u00a0(registration fees, land register and notary fees)<\/li>\n<li><strong>The value of certain works<\/strong> you carried out (provided it resulted in an improvement of the property)<\/li>\n<li><strong>30%<\/strong>\u00a0(if you take as a reference value the tax value of the property 10 years before its sale)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>A tax whose rate decreases over time<\/h3>\n<h5>Sale of your property after 25 years = no tax to pay<\/h5>\n<p>For sales made by individuals, the state applies a <strong>decreasing rate<\/strong> on the gain depending on the duration of the ownership.<\/p>\n<p>If you have been an owner for:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Less than 2 years: the rate is 50% on the profit<\/li>\n<li>2 to 4 years: the rate is 40%<\/li>\n<li>4 to 6 years: the rate is 30%<\/li>\n<li>6 to 8 years: the rate is 20%<\/li>\n<li>8 to 10 years: the rate is 15%<\/li>\n<li>10 to 25 years: the rate is 10%<\/li>\n<li>More than 25 years: the rate is 0%*<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>*2% as of the 1st of\u00a0January 2024<\/p>\n<h5>Inheritance or donation\u00a0: a different calculation<\/h5>\n<p>If you inherited the property or received it as a gift, the duration of possession is calculated as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The death or donation took place prior to January 1<sup>st<\/sup> 2001: the duration of possession begins upon death or upon donation (en francais rien ecrit sur donation?)<\/li>\n<li>The death or donation took place after January 1st 2001\u00a0: the duration of possession goes back to the origin of ownership of the deceased or the donor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Defer payment of tax<\/h3>\n<p>If you sell your primary home in Geneva to buy a new one in Switzerland, you can ask to benefit from deferred tax.<\/p>\n<p>This measure allows you, under certain conditions, to <strong>use your equity gain for your new purchase<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>This tax remains due<\/strong>: the state will claim it from you the day you resell or if you let the property out.<\/p>\n<h3>Recover tax already paid<\/h3>\n<p>Have you already sold and paid your tax and you are buying a new property? If less than 5 years have passed between the two transactions, you can request the reimbursement of the tax on profit and earnings and use it for your purchase to increase your own funds.<\/p>\n<h3>And a real estate company ?<\/h3>\n<p>You are also affected if you sell shares in real estate companies. The same rules and calculations apply in this case.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, if you are considered a professional real estate company, another method of taxation applies.
