French new build laws
Keith Baker, of Croft Baker & Co was recently quoted in the International agent: “France is an enduring favourite for people looking to purchase property abroad. You can see why it is a popular place. The French new build market is actually better regulated than most other European countries and France is the lead country on consumer protection when it comes to new build properties. House buyers are unaware of how ahead of the game France is with some legislation up to 40 years old. Some countries, including the UK, are just getting round to putting insurance and guarantees in place. France has the legislation to guard against uncertainty.”
