Understanding property tax in Brussieu
The property tax on buildings (TFB) in Brussieu is 13,31 % in 2024, below the national median (40,1 %). The rate is voted each year by the municipal council and applies to the cadastral rental value (VLC) of your property, theoretically the annual rent the property would yield if let — a cadastral value set by the DGFiP and shown on your tax notice.
In practice, the tax base is half the cadastral rental value (VLC) of your property — a flat 50 % allowance. This VLC appears on your property-tax notice: it cannot be derived from the purchase price (it rests on 1970 cadastral values, revalued, decoupled from the market). The annual TFB = base × 13,31 %, to which the TEOM (0,00 %) on the same base is added. For illustration, a VLC of 5 000 € would give around 333 €/year here (TFB + TEOM) — your amount depends on YOUR VLC. Enter it in the simulator above for the exact figure.
Possible exemptions: new build for 2 years, young farmers, some social housing, disabled people or widows aged at least 75 with modest income. To be checked with your public finance office.

Frequently asked questions
Why is the TFB rate in Brussieu (13,31 %) different from other communes?
Each commune freely votes its TFB rate each year. The level depends on local budget choices (investments, facilities, debt), the commune's economic wealth, and the share of commercial buildings. 13,31 % in Brussieu compares to a French median around 38 %.
Does property tax increase automatically every year?
The rate is voted annually by the commune. The base (cadastral rental value) is revalued by the finance law — +3.4 % in 2024, +1.7 % expected in 2025 — so even at a constant rate, the tax rises with inflation. A reform of rental values is planned for 2026-2028 and could significantly change the bases.
Who can be exempt from property tax?
Several exemption cases exist: new build (2 years), elderly people (>75, modest income), disabled people, widows, some social housing, young farmers. To be checked with the public finance office in Brussieu along with your tax notice.
How is my property tax calculated for my property in Brussieu?
Official formula: TF = (VLC ÷ 2) × 13,31 %, where the VLC (cadastral rental value) appears on your tax notice. The tax base is 50 % of the VLC (flat allowance). The TEOM (0,00 %), computed on the same base, is added. The VLC cannot be derived from the purchase price (1970 cadastral values, revalued, decoupled from the market): the simulator above applies the formula to the VLC you enter.
Can I contest my property tax notice?
Yes, you can contest the cadastral rental value if you believe it is overvalued (comparison with similar neighbouring properties). The procedure goes through the property tax office, before December 31 of the year following receipt of the notice. In case of disagreement, you may refer the matter to the communal direct taxes commission (CCID).
