Life Estates – Property sale with right of residence
Enjoy your golden age!
Carefree into the best years!
Did you know that you can sell your property and still live in it
In other countries such as France and Germany, the so-called life estate – the sale of property with right of residence has long been common practice. With a deaurea life estate, you can exchange your valuable, debt-free property, which has increased significantly in value in recent years, for the sales proceeds plus a secured right of residence. You can stay in your own home for a limited period or for life, as you wish.

Registered, financially strong customers make immediate decisions when wanting to make long-term investments of their capital in a property like your own, and have no intention of residing there. In return, you keep your home, get the 100% right of residence and the capital from the sale of your property paid out immediately.

This is how your life estate capital is calculated
The capital amount to be paid out is calculated from the value of the property minus the value of the life estate – the right of residence. This limited in time or for life, depending on your preference. Basically, the older you are, the less capital is deducted for the right of residence. The higher the value of your property, the more it makes sense to start thinking of life estate tenancy from the age of 60 or 65.
Sale of real estate with right of residence example
Your house is worth 1 million euros and you want to live in it for another ten years before moving into a retirement home. The rent for the house would be € 2,500 per month, i.e. € 30,000 per year, and € 300,000 for ten years. The right of residence deduction for your property is therefore € 300,000.
The buyer purchases your property for € 700,000 and at the same time grants you a right of use limited to ten years, otherwise free of charge, in the form of a right of residence secured in the land register. You therefore continue to live in your own home without paying rent. It is also possible to agree a lifelong right of residence with the buyer. In this case, the deduction for use is calculated according to the average statistical life expectancy of the person(s) entitled to use the property.
100% security guaranteed: Your right of residence is inviolable
After selling the property, you can continue to use your own home in the usual way. Your right of residence as a life estate is entered in the land register. There are absolutely no restrictions to this right and the use of your property, for the contractually agreed time or for life, is guaranteed.
Absolute discretion is our top priority
The market for life estate tenancy differs greatly from the conventional real estate market. Your property will, therefore, only be offered to select, affluent customers and will not be published on the Internet or in a print medium. Nobody will know about the sale of your property.
