Interest rates at 4% over 20 years: should we fear another real estate crash ?

The article discusses rising mortgage interest rates in France, noting that average rates for 20-year loans have increased to around 3.50%, with some offers reaching up to 4%. This increase has raised concerns among professionals in the real estate sector. The cost of borrowing has been rising since February, partly due to global inflation fears and worries over state debt alongside the high demand for loans by major AI companies. Bank fees have increased across the board, with examples provided for institutions like La Banque Postale and Crédit Agricole.
