How does the 2025 Zero Rate Loan work?
The PTZ is a government scheme designed to help future homeowners finance their property without having to pay interest. This loan is an invaluable asset for strengthening your financial case and making your dream of owning a new home a reality.
This interest-free loan is added to a conventional mortgage, making it easier to buy a new home. By reducing the total cost thanks to the interest-free part of the loan, the PTZ 2025 lowers your monthly repayments and increases your borrowing capacity. It is therefore an ideal solution for completing your property project while keeping your debt level under control.
1 April 2025 marks a key milestone with two major changes to the PTZ :
-
No more geographical restrictions: From now on, the PTZ will be available throughout France, without any distinction between developed and undeveloped areas.
-
New single-family homes are once again eligible: You can take advantage of them whether your project is in the city, in the country or on the outskirts of town.
This change opens up new opportunities for first-time buyers who want to build their own home.
