The PTZ: Your Key to Homeownership in 2025


PTZ 2025: A Real Boost to Become a Homeowner in Puy-de-Dôme!

Still hesitating to take the plunge into buying a home? What if the 2025 version of the Zero-Interest Loan (PTZ) was just the boost you needed? In a market where rates have risen and every euro counts, the revamped PTZ is a real opportunity—especially for first-time buyers in Puy-de-Dôme. Explanations, advantages, local tips: follow the guide!

What exactly is the PTZ?

Behind this somewhat bureaucratic acronym is a very concrete scheme: an interest-free mortgage loan reserved for people buying their first home (or who haven’t owned one in over two years).

In other words: you borrow part of your home purchase budget without paying a cent in interest. Pretty smart, right?

Key conditions:

✅ Reserved for first-time buyers
✅ Subject to income limits
✅ Partial financing of a primary residence

What’s changing (and improving!) in 2025

The government has extended and enhanced the PTZ until 2027, with even more attractive features in 2025 for rural and semi-rural areas. Good news: Puy-de-Dôme is included!

The major benefits of the 2025 PTZ:

💰 Up to 50% of the property price financed through the PTZ (depending on area and income)
⏳ Deferred repayment of up to 15 years
🏡 Available for new builds, construction, and old properties with renovation (in zones B2 or C)
🪙 Up to €31,500 in potential savings thanks to zero interest

What types of properties are eligible in Puy-de-Dôme?

In our beautiful department, the options are vast!

You can use the PTZ to:

🏠 Buy a new home, anywhere
⚒️ Buy an old home with renovation (zones B2 and C such as Riom, Gerzat, Cournon...)
⛪ Build your home on a serviced plot

🚀 The PTZ + reasonable prices in the 63 = an ideal springboard to get started!

Two real-life cases to illustrate

  1. Julien, 28 years old, single, income: €25,000/year
    He wants to buy a new one-bedroom apartment: ⬇️ Up to €11,000 in savings thanks to the PTZ

  2. Marie and Thomas, a couple without children, income: €60,000/year
    Project: a house with renovations in Cournon → ⬇️ Up to €31,500 in savings

These amounts can really make a difference and tip the scales toward buying!

How to benefit from the PTZ? The 4 key steps

Check your eligibility: based on your income, location, and household size
Find an eligible property: new or old with renovations
Build a strong application: mortgage broker + real estate advisor = winning combo
Finalize the purchase at the notary's office: and voilà, you're a homeowner!
