Why settle to Monaco ?

The property market in Monaco is undoubtedly one of the most unique on the French Riviera. The rentals and sales available here differ in many ways from those available in the surrounding area.

 

Access to the best services in the region

 

Choosing to rent or buy in Monaco means benefiting from public infrastructures that are recognised as among the best in the world, particularly in the areas of sanitation, security and health. In addition, homes in Monaco are of a very high standard in terms of design quality and are maintained to meet the latest standards. There are also a wide range of services on offer, including a concierge, car park, swimming pool, spa and gym.

 

Monaco’s education system is internationally recognised. It is based on the curricula of the French national education system, albeit with a number of specific features: more intensive English language teaching from nursery to final year; teaching of French as a ‘foreign language’ to encourage the integration of non-French-speaking pupils; a programme to promote reading and cultural education; promotion of national culture through the teaching of the Monegasque language and the history of Monaco. A number of higher education establishments, such as the IUM and IFSI, have made their mark on the world stage.

 

Access to tranquillity

 

Monaco is just as much about dynamism as it is about tranquillity. If you are looking for a lively nightlife and plenty of cultural and sporting activities, you will appreciate the Principality, particularly the Carré d’Or, the Port and Larvotto.  On the other hand, if you prefer peace and quiet, residential areas such as Saint Roman or Jardin Exotique, for example, will be more interesting places to settle in Monaco. The size of Monaco makes it easy to get around, and you can change your surroundings and atmosphere quickly.

Taxation

Although the average price of renting or buying property in Monaco is higher than in neighbouring towns, it is worth noting that the country offers its residents tax breaks. Residents are not required to pay income tax, property tax or housing tax, unless they are French or American.

Safety in Monaco

The Principality of Monaco is a recognised haven of tranquillity, one of the safest places in the world. To guarantee this quality of life, almost six hundred officials from the Direction de la Sûreté Publique and more than 1,000 video surveillance cameras are involved in this essential aspect of community life.

These advantages make Monaco a sought-after destination for those looking for a top-of-the-range living environment, tax stability and an excellent quality of life. In return for all these advantages, property prices require a larger budget than in neighbouring towns.
