With it’s diverse and beautiful landscapes, coastlines and special culture many Britons have decided to make their homes in France.

Whether drawn by it’s beauty contrast to the UK, "joie de vivre", the investment opportunities that undoubtedly exist or all of these, a great many British people have in recent years bought property in France. France’s Interior Ministry estimates that some 250,000 Brits now own property in France.

Real estate in France is not as cheap as it once was and it is hard now to find those exceptional bargains. However classic buy to let in specially selected highly rentable areas can still return rental yields in the region of 10% and anticipated capital appreciation at least to match.

Similarly, sale and leaseback in carefully chosen developments can also be an excellent investment for the medium term.

Last summer property prices in Montpelier rose 22.5 per cent; Marseille was up 16.9 per cent, Nice 15.09 per cent and Paris 13.9 per cent.

Of course, if it’s a holiday home you are after, the sensational Cote d’Azur and Languedoc regions are the places to be (if you can afford it) and, if you buy well, it is hardly likely the value of the investment will fall in the medium term – they aren’t making any more land!
