MFS, being a totally independent financial consultancy, is able to choose the best lending source on the market. French mortgages are different, please ask Marcus for help. Please remember the usual caveats. Your home is at risk if you do not keep up repayments on a mortgage or other loans secured on it. A foreign currency mortgage may be affected by exchange rates.

When resident in France, you need private medical insurance as treatment is not free. Depending on your personal circumstances, you will have to meet from around 30-100% of the costs incurred. Exeter has the schemes available to meet both your needs and budget. We have been specialists in healthcare for over 75 years and some 20% of members live outside the UK. In addition, unlike most other insurers, we do not apply age-related subscription increases. The age you join is the age you stay.
