The law "for equal rights and opportunities, participation and citizenship of people with disabilities" of February 11, 2005 brings fundamental changes to meet the expectations of people with disabilities. There are around 12 million disabled people in France, or 18% of the population.
If you want to buy a property to rent out, or if you want to renovate your rental property, you can improve the quality of life of people with disabilities by easily and inexpensively fitting out your single-storey furnished accommodation. Fitting out most of your interior means equipping the living room, kitchen, bedroom, shower room and WC, with access doors at least 80 cm wide, and door thresholds less than 2 cm high..
Furnished rentals currently equipped to accommodate people with reduced mobility can even qualify for:
- the "Tourisme & Handicap" mark, a quality mark for welcoming people with disabilities, created by the French Ministry of Tourism. It identifies the accessibility of vacation, leisure and cultural sites for people requiring adaptations for the main deficiences (hearing, mental, motor, visual).
The disabled clientele represents a real potential; this clientele will distinguish the quality of your accommodation and your welcome.
