Buying property in France
France places no restrictions on foreign property ownership. The notaire (a public official, not a lawyer for either side) handles the conveyance and is paid by the buyer. A French bank account is strongly recommended for completion funds and ongoing charges.
No residency requirement to buy.
Non-resident mortgages available from French banks, typically 70–80% LTV with stricter affordability checks.
France abolished taxe d'habitation on primary residences (2023) but it still applies to second homes — and many communes now apply a surcharge of up to 60% on second homes in high-demand zones.
General guidance only — confirm specifics with a qualified local lawyer or tax adviser. Reference
