Press Release Body = A report in the press says that prices in France are set to
rise significantly in the latter half of this year.

"Property prices across France are likely to be impacted by the current initiative
to improve the rail infrastructure in the country, experts have predicted. I think
with the rail link and new infrastructure you will probably see property prices
rise,\" said Hetal Shah, director of Investors Provident.

It is generally believed that improved rail services are unlikely to have as great
and impact as new low-cost flights to previously little-known regions of the
country, he nevertheless expressed his confidence that prices will rise,
particularly in popular holiday destinations.

\"Any kind of interest definitely does have an impact because people who have been
very sceptical about those areas will start to see that there is more new
development coming in, and more infrastructure means more money coming in to the
area as well,\" he said.

We believe that hand in hand with improved communications, go the various measures
planned by the new Sarkozy government to increase home ownership amongst the French.
Both factors are likely to cause above average increases in the next 12 months.

So we believe there has never been a better time to buy in France and certainly in
the Limousin region, which remains the area where prices are at the lowest. The
local market is still slow, being occupied now with the long summer holidays and new
measures have not yet taken effect which leaves the market is wide open for overseas
buyers to march in and grab something special before the end of the year. There is
no doubt, with stock market uncertainty and historically low interest rates, that
investors will seek out property as a way to make meaningful returns and what better
way is there than buying an asset you can use and enjoy knowing that its value can
only rise.
