FabSwingers.com forum: Second homeowners in France

This is aimed at second home owners in France and the impact of brexit after we leave. Here is a link to a specialist magazine :

www.connexionfrance.com/french-news/brexit/brexit-and-second-home-owners

Has some very useful info regardless of how you voted. And explains the freedom of movement and 90 day rule. Also rules for visiting and the requirements which have to be given on entry!

Hope it's useful.

Bonne chance!

Bristol East

Two or three years ago, when I was renting a flat in Bristol and had some money saved up, I had this idea of buying a flat in Alicante or Barcelona.

Two things probably made me lazy about the idea - getting off my arse to learn to speak Spanish properly and the uncertainty caused by the referendum.

I aint abandoned the idea completely, but I did buy a nice house in Bristol instead.

If my numbers come up on that unchecked Euromillions ticket I bought Friday, I might do it lol.

What will happen to things like Euromillions? Does it make any difference if you are in or out (of EU?)

If your coming here permanently there's a whole lot more you will need too! Its cost us 1400€ in translation fees for our carte de sejour (residents visa).

Did you see the bit about the requirements :

Address where your going to

Return ticket

Proof of medical cover - £30,000 minimum

Sufficient funds proof

Can you imagine how long that's going to take per person?

Don't worry....you will still be able to play Euromillions after Brexit.
