Good Time to Buy Property in Cannes and South of France According to French Estate Agents

    CANNES, FRANCE, April 21, 2012 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With the Cannes Film festival beginning on the 16th of May and the Monaco Grand Prix beginning about a week later, the region tends to be extremely popular this time of year. According to Magic-View, it is also the time people traditionally look for new apartment for sale Cannes property in the region. Since property prices have been rising in the area, Magic-View says that it might be a better year for buying property in the Cannes and Grasse areas than some previous years have been.

"Cannes has always been a popular location for visitors and property investors especially due to its association with the Cannes Film Festival and other high profile sporting events such as the Monaco Grand Prix. Recently though, the property market has been hard hit. The nuts and bolts at the moment are that the banks are lending again at good rates. Stamp duty looks as if it will be diminished, 30% to be added to most constructions. Consequently prices will probably increase once the French elections are over, which actually means that France is very stable investment wise. Now is the time to buy, with cheap loans, good prices, and the possibility to perhaps make a property a little larger," says Debbie Cortey of Magic-View.

Magic-View specializes in property for short-term rent as well as Cannes property for sale, and this may be of special interest to people planning to attend the Cannes Film Festival and the Monaco Grand Prix this year.
