French Private Finance are very good, professional and responsive. Getting a mortgage for a new build is extremely onerous and painful. Just as i was about to jump off of a building Matthieu managed to get it over the line.

French Private Finance were incredible. Buying a house in France is a more opaque and lengthy process than buying in others countries I've bought and without someone to help you navigate that process, it's incredibly stressful. FPF were absolutely amazing from start to finish, unbelievably responsive, helpful well beyond their remit. Suggested finance that we got and in good time.
Don't look any further....this is who you need.

Excellent service. Very knowledgeable in helping secure a mortgage for real estate purchase in France by UK resident. Matthieu stepped in with useful advice and recommendations at all stages of the acquisition.

Matthieu Ragon helped us, and it was a joy. Even though we had to submit a lot of docs, Matthieu guided us through this process with confidence and patient. Matthieu explained process well, and was always willing to repeat again where we were in the process. Really a very professional and pleasant person to work with. regards

We worked with Matthieu Ragon at French Private Finance to help us finance our villa purchase in Provence.This was a truly wonderful experience. Here is what I wrote to Matthieu:
“It has been, without exception, an absolute pleasure to deal with you. You have been incredibly responsive, always clear and helpful, and helped us navigate through the minefield of the mortgage process with humour and unfaltering guidance. Truly a great tribute to you. “
Their fees are a no-brainer.

First class - excellent throughout the whole process - know their (french) onions - and recommend without hesitation.

Matt could not have been more helpful and patient in securing my French mortgage. The complications of BREXIT and the impact of coronavirus meant that it was not straight-forward and the French Private Finance team consistently communicated with me in a timely, adaptive and supportive manner.

Matthieu Ragon's service from start to finish has been excellent. What could have been a difficult post-Brexit process has been very straightforward. If you are looking for help with a French mortgage, look no further.

I really could not give higher praise for the service we received from Matt and John at French Private Finance. 5 stars is deserved simply for the unbelievably quick turnaround of our application. Our chasseuse and notaire in Paris were concerned that our mortgage application with BNP as UK residents would take a long time. In fact, it was completed within a few weeks; a very nice surprise - our notaire was particularly impressed given all his previous experience with much longer periods with non-French resident applications. But, the speed was just the icing on the cake. Matt and John are very professional yet friendly individuals that inspired confidence in what can be a daunting experience. They were always super responsive, and never tired with our endless questions. They were very transparent and honest. I really feel we lucked out (it was a personal recommendation that led us to them), and I cannot recommend them enough. Thanks again Matt and John!

Made the whole process of applying for a French mortgage very straightforward. Would have really struggled to do this on our own.
