Help! We want to retire to France; however with the current state of the dollar we would like to keep our nest egg here and get a mortgage here. If we could get a mortgage for 20% down, we could wait for the dollar to improve before exchanging all our money to euros.
So we are looking for an American bank, a French bank in the States, or a mortgage company here that would underwrite a mortgage for a property in France.
Any one know of any? Or is this a pipe dream?
Thanks,
Sandra & Michel
