Find an English-speaking mortgage broker in France
One registered French credit broker who works in English, places files from your country and knows the region you are buying in. Introduced within two working days.
One broker who speaks your language and knows your file
Free matching · reply within two working days · by phone, video or email
French banks lend to people who live abroad, but each lender has its own rules on residence, currency and minimum loan. A broker who places non-resident files every week knows which banks will read yours, and explains every step in English.
- Registered. Every partner broker is registered with ORIAS as a credit broker. You get the number before you speak, and can check it on orias.fr.
- Used to your country. We match on where you live: UK, Ireland, the US, the Gulf, Switzerland, Asia or Australia.
- Used to your region. Paris flats, Riviera villas, Alpine chalets and Dordogne farmhouses are financed differently.
- One broker only. Your details go to one person, never to a list.
From your request to a French loan offer
Tell us your situation
Five minutes: where you live, the property, your deposit and income. Or the full pre-qualification in ten minutes for a faster first call.
We introduce one broker
Within two working days, by email, with the broker's name and ORIAS number. The first call is in English.
The broker takes your file to the banks
Application, negotiation, loan offer. Expect six to ten weeks from a complete file to the offer for a non-resident.
What a French mortgage broker costs
Our matching is free for you. The broker is paid a commission by the bank and usually charges a fee of their own, which varies with the size and complexity of the file. The fee is agreed in writing before any work starts, and the law forbids any payment before your loan is obtained.
We are paid by the broker we introduce, out of their own remuneration. It does not change what you pay. Details are on the how we work page.
Guides for your situation
Before you speak to a broker
Is there an English-speaking mortgage broker in France?
Yes. Several French credit brokers work in English with buyers who live abroad. We introduce you to one who places files from your country and in your region.
Do I need a broker to get a mortgage in France as a non-resident?
No, but it helps. Few French banks lend to non-residents, their criteria change during the year, and a broker knows which ones will read your file.
How much does a mortgage broker cost in France?
The broker's fee depends on the file and is agreed in writing before any work starts. Nothing can be paid before the loan is obtained. Our introduction is free.
Can I do everything from abroad?
Yes. The broker works by phone, video and email, the loan offer can be signed electronically or by post, and the notaire can prepare a power of attorney for the deed.
How do I check that a French broker is registered?
Search the broker's name or ORIAS number on orias.fr. A credit broker must be registered as courtier en opérations de banque et en services de paiement.
