THE FRENCH PROPERTY SHOP

The French Property Shop, a specialist in offering French Houses, Flats, Building Plots, Lakes, Chalets, Farms, Gites and Chateaux For Sale across France, has been "selling the dream" of the French lifestyle for 20 years. For most of that time we have acted as estate agents introducing buyers to selected "confrère" (local agents) in France.

Experience and changing technology has clearly demonstrated that we can now offer buyers from across the world far more assistance and value by putting French property estate agents and private sellers and prospective purchasers into direct contact since it is the local agent or private owner who knows the location, area and individual house far better than we ever could. They know whether a house is on a busy road, how far a school is, if you will get planning for the extension you need. Through this intimate knowledge they will help reduce the number of wasted journeys and make your property search easier and more productive. Remember that experience has shown that people wandering off to France without prior appointments usually come back "empty-handed" having been to unsuitable areas with unrealistic property criteria and not having been treated as serious purchasers! We will continue to offer excellent guidance as to which areas will suit your needs, how to get there, the French legal/conveyancing system, mortgages and insurance. Our mission remains "Selling the Dream across France"
