How to continue investing effectively in real estate? - WEBINAR REPLAY

Inflation, rising interest rates, regulations related to energy performance certificates (EPC), declining property prices in some cities... The global real estate market is currently experiencing a lot of upheaval.

In this context, is it still advisable to invest in rental properties in France? What risks should be anticipated? And what opportunities should be leveraged for effective investing? We discussed all these questions in our webinar with Manuel Ravie, co-founder and president of Investissement-locatif.com, a lecturer and investor in France for over 10 years.

Watch it right now on the recording! As our speaker explained during the webinar, the French real estate market is currently marked by rising interest rates on loans, which in September 2023 average between 4% and 5% for a 20-year mortgage. The real estate market is also showing a lower volume of transactions. Property prices are decreasing in some cities, such as Paris, Bordeaux, and Lyon.

However, many cities, like Marseille, Nice, and Toulon, continue to see price increases. According to expert forecasts, mortgage rates are expected to decrease by the end of the second quarter of 2024. Additionally, as our speaker advises in the webinar, it is very wise to take advantage of the declining property prices for investments. This way, you can seize exceptional opportunities and then renegotiate interest rates with your bank when they drop during 2024.

In this webinar, we also discussed cities with great potential where it is currently profitable to invest. Our expert also revisited the requirements related to the DPE (Energy Performance Certificate). Let us remind you that under the climate and sustainability law, as of January 1, 2023, renting out properties classified as G is prohibited. By 2034, this ban will affect all properties classified as G, E, and F. As an investor, this is a great opportunity to acquire real estate at lower prices and achieve higher returns after renovation.
