Notary fees for the purchase of French real estate are typically a big cost as part of your purchase. The fact they are so high is possibly one reason why people do not move frequently in France. Generally speaking when you purchase a residential property in France you pay the purchase price of the property plus around 7 to 8 percent in addition as Notary fees.
If you require financing for the property your fees will be higher than when you buy without financing.
If you require the notary to do negotiation for you your fees will be higher.
To get up to date because this percentage could have changed and specific guidance call a French notary via www.notaires.fr
