It is one of the main legal responsibilities of a notaire to secure the mortgage (French mortgage or mortgage from a foreign bank) on French properties. Under French law this kind of guarantee is a lien on the property (this includes mostly the privilege de prêteur de deniers PPD and the hypothèque) or on French shares (French pledge or nantissement). We will liaise with your French (or foreign) bank or creditor and draft the French deed required to register the charge or pledge.
