Comment on French Property sold for £50 by Ski Property

French property investments are at an all time high, although I think the market has slowed down due to the value of the pound against the Euro, no doubt there will be a boom again and things will pick up.

We do not believe that the pound will claw back against the euro signifcantly this year. We think that many buyers are accepting the new rates and Easter has been busier than Jan to March. However, although end of March and early April activity is better - it is down on last year.

Interesting. How about the effects of the high Euro against the GB pound on the French property market? We run a self catering cottage and B&B in France and normally find that a high percentage of UK guests are here to view properties or check out the market. We have already noticed that enquiries, which were good, have dropped off significantly as the Euro has gained strength over the past couple of weeks. Hopefully it will be short lived and things will be back to normal soon. What is the perspective on this particular aspect from the point of view of French property sales?

Great information in this article about buying for investment purposes. Several ways of doing this that I hadn’t thought of. Thanks

Two of my local estate agents in Montignac (Dordogne)tell me the market is very quiet and there is little demand for property above 300000 euros (including their fees) They insist the market is in decline and will be worse next year.

Comment on Leaseback - flavour of the month? by site admin

Each Leaseback development contract can have different terms. It is true some developments have a 20 year “residence tourisme” with the management/rental company having an option of 20 years. You need to check the terms of each development. Get legal advice!

Does this mean that you potentiallyhave to do another lease back at the end of the 9 years
