Over 10 years of experience in the real estate sector in France
Working with Notaires and in estate agencies has provided me with an overview of the different processes and partners involved.
Everything you wish to know
I can explain to you how the property market works in France and advise you accordingly. I shall describe and and guide you through all the stages of a purchase and sale of a property :
- Property search : professionals, viewings, home condition report, bilateral sales agreement, etc.
- Relocation process : registrations and contracts.
- Marketing strategy for the sale of your property : advertising, agencies agreement, capital gains tax, currency transfers.
- Useful information : Local Town Planning, Cadastral plan, etc.
A personal interpreter by your side
Buying, selling, making a will…, these are all very different situations, each one having its own process and effects. Why leave room for misunderstandings when you can gain from having your own interpreter ?
I will be assisting you in liaising with all professionals (estate agents, notaries, etc.) enabling you to communicate in full transparency.
A neutral and impartial facilitator
You may also find that in France, if you don’t ask the question…, you might not be made aware of specific issues. But how do you know what questions to ask ?
You can benefit from my experience in real estate matters to fill the gaps. My only interest is for you to be in a position to make an informed decision.
I can help you save time, money and avoid you stress by facilitating all communication, which could be through a simple call, email, summarising a document and by assisting in face to face meetings with anyone speaking French (Solicitors, architects, land surveyors, artisans, etc.).
Think of protecting your spouse and children
Each situation is specific and personal. French law ? International law ? I ensure your French solicitor understands and drafts a document listing your wishes (will, donation) to protect your assets, your spouse and your children.
“I told you I was ill…” (Spike Milligan)
The comedian knew how to laugh at serious matters. However having to deal with a dramatic situation is always alienating. Having to do it in a different country adds to the difficulty as France has its own legal requirements. Be accompanied in such times, I will provide you with all the guidance necessary.
