France Property Buyer 'Resource Finder'


France Property Insurance: We work with a great company who provides holiday home/investment property insurance. They are able to quote and issue documentation in-house - all of which means they offer a seamless and efficient service to their clients. With English speaking staff based in the UK you will feel assured that any queries or even claims will be dealt with without the confusion you might find with a France based policy. They're also able to discuss Life cover.
Currency Exchange: Our sister company, Smart Currency Exchange, is the UK's only exchange company that focuses exclusively on helping overseas property buyers save money and avoid currency fluctuations and risks. Since Smart is specifically niched in money transfers for property, the entire process is efficient, easy and very cost effective.
France Mortgage Advisor: I have an excellent contact, Richard Essery, who may be able to assist you with this. Richard and his firm deal with both UK re-mortgages and with overseas mortgages in countries such as France and in addition, work as IFAs so are well placed to find the best options for clients. In France, this firm deals with 3 of the major banks, including Credit Agricole, UCB and Credit Foncier. This allows them to present you with a series of options offered by various lenders. Richard works quickly and efficiently and has helped many of our readers find their optimum mortgage.
France Property Law (Solicitors): I know a great team of solicitors who are bi-lingual and have a large network of agents and other contacts throughout France. Their aim is to take the worry out of buying property in France; helping to make the dream a reality. This team can also help with other considerations when purchasing a property overseas such as cross border inheritance matters, wealth tax, French Capital Tax, as well as the practicalities of letting out property in France.
Independant Financial Advisor: I have met a great guy, Anthony Howard, and his team who are IFA's based in the UK. This company is entirely independent of any and every financial institution, insurer and investment company. This means that they can provide impartial, professional advice, together with the best approach to help their clients achieve their financial aspirations. They can also advise on tax and inheritance tax in France. Antony and his team have a wealth of experience in property investment in both established and emerging overseas property markets, so they are an excellent resource to consider when buying in France.
Removal Companies: The company that I would highly recomment for removals has helped many France Buying Guide readers... They offer container services and regular road services to France. Thecy can also take care of your antiques and fine furniture; taking a little of the stress out of moving. From what I've heard and seen... they really know their stuff.
