French property as security

If you require finance to purchase a property in France, then mortgages.co.uk can help, we are giving you the opportunity to take expert advice from a team of licensed credit brokers, who have over 20 years experience. By using the French property as security a repayment mortgage could be raised depending on your circumstances.

Based upon the valuation or purchase price of your property (whichever is lower) you could borrow up to; 85% of the properties value (in Euros only) for a repayment mortgage, 80% (in Euros only) for an interest only mortgage or 70% in any other major currency.

The minimum loan amount (for transactions using Euros) is €75,000, in all other currencies it is €230,000. The term of the loan is from 7 to 25 years, this can be available for individuals up to the age of 80. Current interest rates as at 5 th July 2003 are from 2.75% Variable for Euro loans and 2% above LIBOR for all other currencies . Fixed rate loans are also available.

The following is an example of a repayment mortgage in Euros; to this you must add the cost of a mortgage protection plan.

Repayment mortgage of approx € 72,500 over a period of 20 years at a initial discounted interest rate of 2.75% variable for the first year and then 1.70% above EURIBOR thereafter = approx € 397.30 capital & interest per month for the first year and then approx € 433.55 thereafter = a total approximate amount payable over the term of € 106,517.00 including capital, interest, arrangement and survey fees.
