If you own a property like a big house in France which is rented out as several bed sits, for example, do you pay local taxes on the whole house as a unit or is each bed sit taxed separately? The latter would clearly be much more expensive for the owner.

No, but say a number of independent bed sits in an old house done up; in UK it is called a House of Multiple Occupation. Long term tenants.

Ah, tim17, smart. Yes, was curious to see if it existed in France.

Based on the experience with the kids renting here the owner of the building pays the TdH and then apportions it amongst the tenants unless the building split allowed for individual apartments to be logged in which case the tenants pays the TdH direct to the council.
The change in the UK appears to be motivated by councils trying to increase their income by any means possible.

Yes, tim, agreed. Ultimately I guess the tenant ends up paying in one way or another. But the French system seems to be based on the building only, not the division.
