ST TROPEZ, FRANCE, November 29, 2010 /24-7PressRelease/ -- According to official figures released by the Observatoire Credit Logement/CSA average French mortgages are down from 5.0% in November 2008 to a mere 3.35% last month. This dramatic decrease is prompting people who have always dreamed of owning real estate in the South of France to take the bull by the horns.
Further, purchasing luxury property in the South of France is made all the more attractive by the comparative low cost of taking on a French mortgage in Euro. Boosted by the weaker Sterling and US dollar currently making transferring funds less attractive, these low mortgages are contributing to sales of luxury villas in the South of France being on the up.
Carlton International, specialists in property for sale in the South of France and French Riviera rentals since 1997 hopes to take advantage of this long overdue positive news from the luxury South of France real estate market. And as Carlton International aims to grow its client base, through major international development this upturn could not come at a better time.
This month sees the launch of a couple of major innovations that will lead to changes in the way Carlton International plans to sell luxury property in the future. The opening of offices in both Miami and Moscow, it is hoped, will spearhead an assault on the US and Russian markets. It will now be possible for prospective buyers to walk into an office abroad and view Carlton International's exclusive portfolio of luxury property for sale in the South of France.
