Fantastic, seamless service from start to finish. A very proactive approach getting my French mortgage through is about 5 weeks. Very impressive! A big thank you to Matthieu.

French Private Finance held my hand during the extraordinarily bureaucratic process of obtaining a mortgage for a renovation project in France. Without Matt's help it wouldn't have been possible. Highly recommended.

I would highly recommend Matthieu and Private French Finance. His communication was quick and very helpful and made the process of securing a French mortgage very straightforward.

We used French Private Finance for the recent purchase of a property in the Alps. Matthieu Ragon was fantastic throughout the process which included securing french bank finance and opening bank accounts locally. The process was managed impeccably throughout and all work completed thoroughly and in a timely manner. I would highly recommend their service and would definitely use again with any future purchases.

I recently used French Private Finance to arrange a mortgage on a ski chalet in France. Matthieu Ragon was extremely helpful and knowledgable throughout.
Communication was superb and he handled any difficulties caused by Brexit or Covid quickly and professionally. With my limited knowledge of French law and language, his help was invaluable and I couldn't recommend them highly enough.

We couldn't have had a better experience with Matt and French Private Finance. We got in touch with them late in the process after having difficulty with a local French bank branch. Matt was extremely responsive, thorough, and quick to turn around our mortgage application, and managed to get us an offer in 3 weeks - even in the run up to Christmas. A real pleasure to work with, couldn't recommend more highly.

Excellent service and great connections with banks which did allow the agreement on a competitive mortgage for a large property despite the difficulties linked to Covid and Brexit

Although we didn’t get a loan finalised in the end, the service provided by Matthieu Ragon was great. He was communicative, swift and able to provide us with clarity and information quickly under a tight deadline. Thanks again for your help!

At short notice ahead of the completion our of property purchase in Les Gets Matt helped secure a mortgage on very good terms in record time (4 weeks from application to formal offer). I would not hesitate to recommend Matt and his team at French Private Finance for arranging property loans.

Excellent service, Romeo and Matthieu handled the application smoothly, answering every question within hours, keeping us up to date on the process, sorting out challenges with the vendor and bank quickly, providing clear guidance on preparing the paperwork. Thank you!

The French Private Finance team did a fantastic job of securing a mortgage for a complex situation. Moreover, obtaining a mortgage in France is a lot more arduous than in the UK/USA and having Matt and the team guide me through this process was incredibly valuable. The customer service was excellent and I would use them again any time!

Reply from French Private Finance
Fantastic service all around by Matthieu & the team at French Private Finance. I would use them again unreservedly!

A huge 'thank you' to Matthieu Ragan of FPF for guiding us through the French mortgage/banking system. We couldn't have done it without him! Professional throughout, easy to communicate with and always happy to explain things to us when necessary. Would definitely recommend to others.

I worked with Matthieu Ragon to obtain a mortgage in France.
Matthieu provided an outstanding quality of service: clear communication through the process, resourceful when hurdles arose, diligent in building the case and following up with the bank and myself, and available pretty much anytime to help answer questions.
Matthieu was very professional throughout our discussion and is a very pleasant person to work with.
Lastly, it is clear that French Private Finance know their market well and have strong relationships with local banks.
Best,
Mehdi

To describe my experience with French Private Finance I could run out of superlatives.
On the whole our experience with French Private Finance was exceptional.
I had heard from a friend that obtaining a non resident mortgage could be lengthy and difficult, as it turned out in my case he was right. The service and patience shown was outstanding.
French Private Finance obtained multiple quotes. With their guidance we picked the one that suited us best. We were then guided through and around the many pitfalls and minefields along the way. Emails and calls are always answered quickly as are any issues that arise.
If you are looking for a broker to guide you through this tricky process look no further.
