How much can I borrow on a mortgage?

It is generally accepted that the total credit charges for a month should not exceed 33% of your monthly income for a single person and for certain banks. In certain other cases, the debt ratio for importable income can go up to 50% of household income. At Crédit Populaire Européen, our specialists study your situation and will offer to repurchase and consolidate current loans so that you only have one loan to repay, guaranteed by a mortgage.

When can I call you to submit a credit application?

At CPE we always have an advisor on duty from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.

What is mortgage discharge?

First, let us clarify that the mortgage is the guarantee which allows a bank to cover itself in the event that the borrower is no longer able to repay his loan. In fact, the borrower could not sell the property without obtaining approval and the release of the mortgage. The bank has the right to cancel the credit in the event of non-payment, to have the property sold during legal proceedings and to recover the balance of its debt from the proceeds of the construction of the building. On the other hand, in the event of early repayment of your mortgage loan, the notary is required to request the release of the mortgage. Release is a legal act where the bank certifies that the borrower has fully repaid their loan. This release is done by notarial deed which therefore generates notary fees. In practice: the release of a mortgage is only essential if you decide to sell the building. Otherwise, just let time pass to get the 30-year period to expire. In this case the mortgage will disappear automatically but this time without any costs.

What is “right of pre-emption”?

It is a right which allows a person to be preferred over other candidates for the purchase of real estate when it is put up for sale. The beneficiary will therefore be preferred even if he makes an equal offer to the other buyers.
