french property advice

You have dreamt about owning a French property; you have watched the endless repeats of TV programmes about people moving abroad; you may even have watched the docusoaps about struggling English people attempting to set up a hotel or a B&B. All the time, you have probably wondered exactly how easy it is to buy and renovate a property in France.

The intention of this site is to answer your questions for you, tell you what to look out for and what to be aware of. If you are serious about finding a property, we may be able to help you.

We now have two properties in France: one in Normandy and the other in the Corbieres region of Aude, in the foothills of the Pyrenes. Both of these properties were bought with the intention of renovating and upgrading. Along the way, we have learnt some valuable lessons, which we want to pass on to you.
