house in France?

[moondancer]

Anyone here have a house in France AV ?

Hardly. They'll be cheaper to buy now.

[red devil]

Could it be that the drop in prices is due to the state of the French economy?

And as Jah says, that's good news for some...

[KidKruger]

I'd assume prices are tumbling in Euros ?

If so that would possibly be to keep in line with the falling pound, if they don't do that the prices would appear to be increasing for UK buyers who're comparing the exchange rate.

KK, surely that would only be the case if the property was for sake in the UK only?...

Got a place in Britanny. It cost bugger all and it was worth half of that even before the recent nonsense. Area is depopuated and there was already plenty of property for sale.

Couldn't give a cuss about the expats out there as they are all rabid. They hate France, do not assimilate, but hate what Britain has become, whatever that means. They still managed to bite the hand that feeds.

Should imagine that SW France is far more sophisticated in terms of oweners abroad.

I am far more concerned about the damage to the UK than my place in France.

Interesting that France seems to adopt much more protectionist policies than the UK including their builders. This ends up in higher prices for work, and then very poor English builders then offering to do it cash in hand. Careful of what you wish for UK builders!

PS I've had a few nice EDFers at my place, I love the area and France.
