Financing for your international buyers, sorted before the compromis

Foreign buyers lose properties, and agents lose sales, when the loan falls through late. Introduce your buyers early and we match them with a broker who places non-resident files.

The problem

The loan clause is where foreign sales fall apart

A buyer from London, Dubai or New York signs the compromis with a loan condition, then discovers that their own bank does not lend in France and that French banks want a bigger deposit than they planned. Six weeks later the sale is off and the property is back on the market.

Most of these failures are visible on day one. Residence, currency of income, US citizenship, existing loans and age all decide how much a French bank will lend, and none of them shows up in a viewing.

Introduce the buyer before the compromis and a broker who places non-resident files will tell them, in English and within two working days, what they can realistically borrow and how long it will take.

How it works

From viewing to loan offer

  1. You introduce

    Send the buyer your partner link, or put our calculator on your listings. Their request is tagged to your agency.

  2. We qualify

    The buyer completes a ten-minute pre-qualification: income, commitments, deposit and project. We match them with one broker who knows their country.

  3. You stay informed

    With the buyer's agreement we tell you when the budget is confirmed, when the loan application goes in and when the offer is issued, so you can plan the signing dates.

What your buyers get

Everything after "offer accepted", in English

  • A broker who places loans for buyers living abroad, chosen for their country of residence and your region
  • A clear budget before the compromis, including purchase costs and the deposit French banks will expect
  • A bilingual notaire on the buyer's side if they want one, through French Notaires
  • Help with the French tax side of owning and letting, through French Tax Online
  • A forward contract to fix the exchange rate for the deposit

The buyer pays us nothing. Any fee between your agency and us is agreed in writing and only where the rules on credit intermediation allow it for your status.
