With the proposed regulation and application, neither the State will be obliged to pay double compensations, nor the tenants will lose any of their rights, but mainly the landlords will not be deprived without reason of the legal their compensation, solely because they gave the right to sublease their property to their tenant in order to serve him.\u00a0<\/p>\n
;”>To the Deputy Minister of Finance Mr. Apostolos Vesyropoulos<\/strong><\/p>\n KOIN.: To the Governor of AADE Mr. Giorgos Pitsilis <\/strong><\/p>\n >SUBJECT: Rent Reductions: Resolving Backlogs & need to intervene in the regulation of real estate subleases.<\/strong><\/p>\n Dear Deputy Minister<\/strong><\/p>\n Knowing and acknowledging your practical interest in solving the problems faced by real estate owners, especially in the midst of a pandemic, from the continued reduction of their rents, we return to our recent letters, to point out that beyond of the need to speed up the corrections and payments of the due compensations to the property owners, the main issues to be resolved immediately are the following:<\/p>\n Especially in this matter, as the current legislation is worded, it seems that only the sublessee is entitled to a rent reduction and only the sublessee is entitled to compensation, who must pay the owner-lessor the entire agreed rent. However, the sub-lessors, and especially the powerful chains, told the lessors that if the sub-rents are reduced, they in turn unilaterally reduce the main rents, ignoring the fact that the owners are not entitled to state compensation either.<\/p>\n We believe that state support and intervention to be functional and fair to all, but also feasible for the State, must take into account the sequence of leases and sub-leases and be designed and legislated retroactively, based on the following self-evident assumptions:<\/strong><\/p>\n – Any rate of reduction<\/u><\/strong> of the lease is recognized to the sublessee, based on the activity he carries out in the lease to be recognized to the sublessee against the owner on the main lease.<\/p>\n –\u00a0Any compensation rate<\/u><\/strong> on the rent the sublessor is entitled to receive, the lessor is also entitled to it, receiving it from the sublessor, or directly from the State.<\/p>\n Examples of application:<\/strong><\/p>\n Example A. Rent of \u20ac1,000, with a sub-rent similarly of \u20ac1,000. a) for a closed business:<\/strong>The sublessee does not pay rent. The sublessor collects \u20ac800 as tax-free compensation which he is obliged to pay to the original lessor, also as his tax-free compensation, or else it should be paid directly to the lessor.<\/p>\n b) for an affected business:<\/strong>The sublessor collects \u20ac600 rent from the sublessee and \u20ac200 compensation from the State, i.e. \u20ac800 (of which \u20ac600 is taxable) which he is obliged to pay to the lessor also as due and taxable rent. In both cases the sublessor correctly has a zero balance.<\/strong><\/p>\n Example B. Rent \u20ac1,000, with subrent \u20ac2,000. a) for a closed business: The sublessee does not pay rent. The sublessor collects \u20ac1600 as compensation, but is obliged to pay only \u20ac800 to the original lessor, as compensation, or else this amount should be paid directly to the lessor.<\/p>\n b) for an affected business<\/strong>: The sublessor collects from the sublessee taxable rent of \u20ac1,200 and \u20ac400 compensation from the State, i.e. \u20ac1,600. However, the lessor is obliged to pay only \u20ac600 as taxable rent, and \u20ac200 as compensation to the lessor, with the latter being paid either by him (the sublessor) or directly by the State.\u00a0\u00a0In both cases, the sublessor correctly retains a taxable profit of \u20ac800!<\/strong><\/p>\n With the above regulation and application, neither the State will is obliged to pay double damages, nor will the tenants lose any of their rights, but above all the landlords will not be unreasonably deprived of their legal compensation, just because they gave the right to sublease their property to their tenant to serve him.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n At your disposal for any clarification and cooperation<\/p>\n With special regards<\/p>\n The President The Tax Advisor The Secretary General Stratos I.
