The market for French property can provide an "extremely healthy mid to long-term future", an expert has said.
The best way to make sure property investment in the country works out well is to have a "sensible view on pricing" and be cautious in the near-term, Trevor Leggett said.
The expert, of Leggett Immobilier, said French property agents and owners must be "realistic" in their valuations and what they expect of purchases or sales.
He said if people adopt that recipe for success overseas property in France will stay among the most appealing on the continent. He added that in "troubled times" property investors and owners seek so-called safe havens "and they simply don't come more secure or enjoyable than France".
