French property - Austrailian buyers

 

The high
Australian dollar, plus a wealth of available information via the internet and
an enduring love affair with France mean more & more Australians are buying
property in France than ever before.

 Of the reasons
for this surge in interest, the remarkably strong Australian dollar is perhaps
the principal cause. Australians are now looking to France for property investments,
especially as affordability in the Australian market becomes an issue and
French mortgage rates are very attractive at rates from 2.6%. 

 

LOWEST RATES

Rate	Term	LTV	Notes
3.40%	20yrs	80%	Rate fixed for the term
2.60%	20yrs	80%	Tracker Mortgage E3M
2.60%	5yrs	80%	5 year fixed rate
3.65%	25yrs	85%	Rate fixed for the term
3.00%	20yrs	100%	20 year fixed (French Residents)
3.45%	15yrs	70%	Interest Only Tracker

For many
buyers, the growing ease with which people can conduct their research online, this
has resulted in a fabulous opportunity to own a house in France without having
to take on a crippling financial risk.

For a growing
number of Australians, owning a piece of a France, a country that has long been
a dream, is today becoming a reality.

Our
connections now extend to the Aussie market, and this is one of our principal
target markets for 2013. We have friends in our village, and they have owned a
small holiday home here for several years. They come out each July for 3-4
weeks, to soak up the French lifestyle, cuisine and relax ! Their dream is to
perhaps retire here – and the strength of the Aussie $ makes this possible.
