French Mortgages – why is now the best time to secure yours?
French mortgage rates have dropped to all time lows, with rates not seen in over 70 years. With such low French mortgage rates, non-resident investors can now lock in huge amounts of long term value.
A great example of this is with repayment French mortgages where you can now secure an incredible rate of 3.00% for 20 years with a loan-to-value of 80%. Compared to the vast majority of countries in Europe and also further afield, French mortgages offer by far the cheapest lending.
However, lending criteria can strict, so we advise you to speak with a French mortgage specialist who will be able to give you a decision in principle within a few minutes.
