How the checker works
It follows the order in which the Métropole looks at a case. First the town: the quota regulation only covers Nice. Then the length of stay: monthly letting under a mobility lease (bail mobilité) remains residential use and needs no authorisation (art. L631-7 of the Construction and Housing Code).
Then the status of the property: a main residence can be let for up to 120 days a year without authorisation. Finally the owner, any past authorisation, and the address, which decides the quota zone.
The four possible answers
| Situation | What to do |
|---|---|
| Main residence, 120 days or fewer | No authorisation; declaration and registration number |
| Second home, private individual, first time | Temporary authorisation, 5 years, non-renewable |
| Property-letting company, or authorisation already used | Compensation, mixed letting or mobility lease |
| Monthly letting (1 to 10 months) | Mobility lease, no authorisation |
