What is the co-ownership loan?

 

It is a fixed-rate collective loan, taken out by the co-ownership (minimum of 2 members), to finance renovation work, regulatory compliance, or energy efficiency improvements to the building.

Examples of eligible works:

  • thermal insulation (walls, attics, floors);
  • replacement of windows and doors;
  • installation of heat pumps, wood boilers, solar panels;
  • high-performance ventilation systems.

Finance your energy renovation work easily!

 

How does it work?

2. File preparation

Quotes, property manager’s manual, list of co-owners, etc.

What are the benefits of financing your work with a co-ownership loan?

Once the renovation project is presented and approved by a majority vote at the general assembly, the financing phase begins.
There are several options available:

  • he reserve fund;
  • a special charge call, also voted on in the general assembly.

When the reserve fund is insufficient or a call for personal funds is too burdensome, a co-ownership loan can be taken out.

This collective renovation loan allows you to spread the cost over time and preserve the reserve fund for unexpected expenses.

The co-ownership loan also enables quicker action and helps meet tight deadlines required for compliance with new regulations.

It can also give access to government subsidies, provided the work is completed within a specific timeframe.

Financial constraints or complex administrative procedures should no longer delay or prevent your projects from happening.

 

Credit insurance: a safety net

Thanks to the mandatory credit insurance, the financial reserves of the co-ownership — and of all participating co-owners — are protected in case of payment default by one of them.

If a co-owner fails to pay their share of the loan, the credit insurance covers the missing payment.

The credit insurer then takes responsibility for recovering the amount from the defaulting co-owner.

The one-time credit insurance premium must be paid in advance using personal funds before the co-ownership loan can be granted.

  • icone faq question
    Who takes out and repays the co-ownership loan?

    The co-ownership, with the agreement of the co-owners, takes out a collective loan with the bank. This process is based on a decision made during a general assembly, where the nature and cost of the work are defined and approved by a majority of co-owners.
    The minutes of the general assembly, sent to each co-owner, include the investment plan, the estimate, the purchase order, and the decision to take out a loan.
    Although this is a collective loan, each owner decides whether to participate or not by sending a written or emailed confirmation.
    Once the property manager has taken out the loan on behalf of the co-ownership, the monthly payments are allocated to the participating co-owners based on their ownership shares.
    Co-owners who do not participate in the collective financing will contribute their share through personal funds or a private loan.
    Each co-owner pays their monthly contribution into the co-owners’ association account. The loan is repaid automatically from the co-ownership’s current account.
