Mortgages

According to Validus, the French mortgage company some innovative first time buyers are taking French mortgages, the only snag is that they are on properties in France.

With a huge selection of properties available for less than £100,000 and knowing that the French housing market is beginning to move upwards again some UK first time buyers have seen this as an opportunity to buy a home as an investment. Most of them plan to sell the French property in a few years, thereby raising a large deposit (out of the capital growth) ready to buy a home in the UK.

The 2 bedroom property in central France is for sale at 89.800€ and buyers need a deposit of only £13,000 with monthly repayments of €340. A novel way to solve the problem of the difficulty of obtaining a UK mortgage for many first time buyers.
