House Hunting in France Made Easy

from The Gîte Podcast · host rupertspringfield

You want to move to France and open a gîte (holiday home), so you start property hunting - and you might be surprised by how difficult it can be, especially when searching online.  I talk to Rose Caldwell, an estate agent working in Issigeac in the Dordogne, to find out why it can be such a struggle to find properties and what tips she has to make it easier.  She also talks us through the process of buying a house, which protects the buyer when compared to other countries.  I'm sure that this will help those of you wanting to buy in France - and if you're looking in the Dordogne, then get in touch with Rose!
