French Currency Exchange Services

Buying a Property Abroad – Don’t Let the Banks Cash In!

HiFX - Highly Recommended Foreign Exchange & French Property Insurance.
Whether you’re buying a dream holiday home or investing in overseas property fluctuating exchange rates can make a huge difference to the price you finally pay.

For example:
A French property priced at €200,000 would have cost £135,870 at the beginning of March 2006. Due to currency movements, that same property would have been £4,758 more expensive at £140,628 just one month later (a difference of 3.5% in only 4 weeks!).

To help make your money go further when buying a French property, 1st for French Properties have teamed up with HiFX to give you access to some of the most competitive exchange rates available in the market.
 
Recently named ‘Best Foreign Exchange Rate Provider’ by The Sunday Times, HiFX save people £1000’s by offering great rates AND great service. As Europe’s leading currency provider, their global network of offices manages £20 billion in foreign exchange transactions annually, and last year the company helped over 25,000 private individuals protect themselves against the foreign exchange risk they were exposed to between their offer on property being accepted and the completion of the sale.

With HiFX, protecting your property investment is easier than you think. Their dedicated specialists will listen to your requirements and then happily provide simple, jargon free advice about the various options open to you.

Finally, when the transaction is undertaken HiFX will give you better exchange rates than your bank; no commission charges, no UK transfer costs, and no overseas bank receiving fees - making your money go further.

Remember:
You’d never agree to buy a property in the UK without knowing the final cost. If you agree to buy an overseas property without fixing the exchange rate at the start, you are taking a gamble. No one, not even the most astute City commentators, can predict future exchange rates.
