Can anyone recommend a broker for a UK citizen looking at purchasing in France (Dordogne region).

Any help appreciated.

We had a mortgage through BNP; they have an English department. Or, they did when we took ours out (2006), but I paid it off ten years ago, so I may be out of date.

You'll struggle to get a mortgage with a non-French bank.

Credit Agricole also have an English department.

If you excuse the rather amusing surname, Simon Conn is a well known mortgage adviser for foreign mortgages/properties, I (UK mortgage adviser) refer any clients to him that need these services: https://www.simonconn.com/

I can recommend International Private Finance. I've known them for about ten years and have helped numerous clients in the past with their French (and occasional Spanish) mortgages.
