About

Baptiste Rouget — Founder of RentValo

As a property investor, I created RentValo in 2026 to solve a concrete problem: existing simulators gave optimistic yields disconnected from real tax rules and verifiable market data.

Expertise

Property investor

Unfurnished, LMNP and SCI in personal portfolio.

RentValo founder

Launched in 2026 — AI simulator dedicated to French rental property.

Tax specialist

All applicable tax regimes modelled, updated with each Finance Act.

RentValo Methodology

RentValo is built on a simple principle: every figure shown must be traceable to an official source or a verifiable formula. Here are the four pillars.

Official DVF notarial data

Market prices shown in RentValo come exclusively from Demandes de Valeurs Foncières (DVF) published by the DGFiP on data.gouv.fr — real property transactions recorded by notaries, not agency estimates.

Server-side TypeScript calculations

All calculations — gross, net and net-net yield, cash flow, IRR, LMNP depreciation, SCI corporate tax — are performed in TypeScript in /lib/calculs/. No calculation is delegated to AI. Lylia receives pre-calculated results and interprets them.

Up-to-date tax regimes

All applicable tax sub-regimes (micro-foncier, LMNP micro-BIC, LMNP actual costs, LMP, SCI IR/IS…) are verified on impots.gouv.fr, bofip.impots.gouv.fr and service-public.fr. Last update: Finance Act 2026 (private landlord status / Jeanbrun Act for unfurnished rental) and LMNP depreciation reintegration (LFI 2025).

Grounded in market reality

Each simulation integrates median rents from the ANIL/CLAMEUR Rent Observatory, mortgage rates from Crédit Logement CSA and ADEME DPE data to flag energy-inefficient homes before the ban.
