French mortgages
If you require a mortgage to buy in France there are a number of considerations to take into account which can seem daunting. Most UK lenders cannot take a charge on property overseas and approaching a French bank directly for a loan can be fraught with difficulties, particularly if you do not speak the local language or are not familiar with cultural differences. In addition, it is important to take advice on the ownership structure as inheritance laws in France can have serious consequences and it is important to understand the implications there will be for any mortgage.
