shiftworker Posted April 17, 2017 Share Posted April 17, 2017 I am always reading about the positives relating to buyingproperty in France. However, as a French property owner myself, I worryabout the implications of Brexit and, more exactly, the reported 50 Billionplus divorce bill some are touting around that we could owe. Theresa May ofcourse is adamant that this sum is ridiculous but, if things start to turnugly, and both sides dig in their heels, I wonder exactly where us French/EUproperty owners will stand. For example, could we officially be held jointly responsible for the debt ourgovernment is refusing to pay? In this case then, would it not be inconceivablethat our properties are taken from us, along with our EU based businesses andEuro bank accounts until the debt is paid? Exactly how vulnerable are weand how wise is it to invest in a French/ EU property if you are a post-brexit, UK nationalthese days? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powerdesal Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Shiftworker, why not go the whole hog and postulate that all Brits in France would be interned in labour camps until the UK Govt paid for our release.It would make about as much sense as your original post.

Chancer Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Interesting first post on a forum! The OP would be advised to cast his bait on another French forum where he will for sure get the results that he seeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
