Being one of the closest countries to the UK, France has always dazed the British property investors in every sense of the term. Historically, culturally, and politically, France has always lured investors from all over the world with its prized natural possessions spread across the country. The nation better known as the love capital of the world has several things in its favour, which make it the much-desired property investment destination in the world today. As they say, there’s something about Paris that keeps you hooked on the nation’s capital. Perhaps, there’s no better place to spend a romantic break than in the city of the lovers.
After experiencing a recent lean patch, the property market in France is once again in favour with the British investor. As one of the most sought-after destination for commercial and industrial powerhouses, the country has always remained one of the best investments for business and commerical property. Paris is also one of the hottest fashion destinations in the world and as such property in the capital city definitely commands a premium. Indeed, according to a recent survey, Paris has become out of bounds for the average property investor. But small investors need not worry as they can still find suitably priced properties throughout the picturesque French countryside and coastal towns. Since the property market is going through a transition phase in France, an intelligent investor can strike an interesting deal even in some of the major towns and cities of the country. To give you a price indicator, you can grab apartments in Languedoc Roussillon starting from £40K. But you’ll still need to spend in the upward range of £50K+ for a decent flat in the Var region of Provence . However, closer to Paris, you can lay your hands on comfy apartments in Ile De France for a little over £40K. Alternatively you could consider a mobile home in France starting from £13K already sited. Coming back to the alternatives to Paris, prospective investors are well advised not to just hook on to the capital city, as there are lots of other cheaper and viable options available all around the countryside. The country cottages in the rural settings, or ski chalets in the mountains are an immediate turn-on for the tourists, and offer the best investment if you are looking for a steady regular rental income from your property investments in France. Even other prominent areas, like the Cote d'Azur are getting increasingly out-of-bounds for the average property buyer. Similarly, the cities along the French Riviera, considered as the millionaire’s playground, are just too expensive for an average property investor. However, if you are an above-average investor, then these places should be an automatic choice for any kind of investment. Overall, the natural choice of property investment in France include the resort properties all along the coast, the Alps, residential property, apartments, villas, and mansions in major cities, like Paris, Toulouse, Monte Carlo, and Nice - and business and commercial property in and around the capital city of Paris. And here is a tip for any prospective property investor looking to buy a property in France. The majority of French nationals speak and understand only French. So, it’s an added advantage if you polish up on your French before investing in the country. Property for sale in France - most recently added properties
