Paris remains popular with British buyers

Individuals looking to buy property in France may be interested to learn that Paris is the most popular location for British buyers looking for homes in the country, Overseas Property Professional reports.

According to new French statistics, the majority of Brits living in the country have their permanent home in or around the capital city.

One of the primary reasons that Paris remains popular is the good transport links which exist, the news provider claimed.

"Arts, culture, jobs and rental opportunities attract UK buyers and the latest figures from the French statistics office INSEE showing that 135,000 Britons [are] living in Paris," OPP added.

In addition, the tourist market in the country is also attractive to potential property owners, with many buy-to-let investors reporting that there is no 'out of season' time in Paris.

Meanwhile, French mortgage specialist Athena Mortgages said last week that borrowing in the country is at its lowest level since the Second World War.
