Hi Sharon,

Yes we've finally done it and signed on the dotted line for our lovely old farmhouse in Milly [in the Manche department of Lower Normandy].

Its a BIG THANK YOU to your agent as she has been extremely helpful, always at the end of the phone or email to answer all our questions and dish out advice and information. Without her we would have struggled a bit.

We cant wait to move in and begin our new life in France.

Julie and Steve.

We are sure that Juile & Steve will enjoy their new life in the rolling countryside of Normandy which a lot of people compare to the Yorkshire dales but with cows instead of sheep! As usual we are pleased the whole team worked together to make sure everything went according to plan for Julie & Steve, congratulations from everyone at Cle France.

Sharon, 

It's amazing how viewing changes your initial opinion. 

One house we went to today was a potential favourite of mine but ended up been the first we put a line through. 

Firstly your agent was a gentleman. Lovely guy. Please thank him again.

The Buleon property. 

My wife loved it. I truthfully was excited by it but really did nt feel the "wow factor" during the viewing. The land is mainly to the front and felt like a corridor. Next doors is on top of you too, to the rear.

The Mauron property.

Semi detached with the green lake. Absolutely loved it! Yet was initially concerned that it was not detached! Really excited by it. I have several questions for you to be honest. The electric wasn't working for instance. The fosse wasn't spoken about either.

Also survey wise. Because we would be cash buyers it would presumably be upto us to ensure a thorough check is made (usually it's the cautious bank that insist to ensure they get their money back)

So three more viewings tomorrow. Hope that's OK for you. No doubt we shall speak more on our return to England. 

Thanks for arranging things etc.

You never know. This could yet have a fruitful ending yet.

Best regards, Dave, Leeds (via Pontivy).

We are sure we will have a "property that suits" after all we currently have more than 8000 houses for sale in France on our website and a few more thousand to add in most regions of France so Cle France is the place to be.

Dave is still looking for the right house in Brittany but I am sure he will find something soon.

Hi Sharon,

Thank you very much for you recommendations we really appreciate your service. I have spoke to your currency guy and will definitely speak to your solicitor & insurance person.

Thanks, Vicky.

When you search for property for sale in France we want you to find not only great French property but also a 'one-stop shop' where you can ask all those questions you have and more importantly get all the right answers; welcome to Cle France - The French Property network!

Hello, we are very happy with our house in Normandy and wish to thank you for your help and contacts.

Regards, June.

June bought a delightful house with Cle France and we wish her many happy years there. We make sure that every part of the process is stress free for our clients throughout the buying process.

Hi Sharon, 

We had quite a whistle-stop tour of the area and probably viewed more than a dozen properties. We liked the house at Montsurvent and the size of the plot, but we were rather daunted by the number and size of the outbuildings.   

Having looked around the area we are drawn toward the coastal region of the Cherbourg peninsula, however we are struggling to work out the true worth of properties when the pricing against the condition of the houses seems quite variable. Our short term plan is to make a further visit in the next few weeks just to try and narrow down our choice of area before looking at any other properties.

The Cle France agent was really a helpful and knowledgeable guide, thankyou for arranging the viewing and for the other information you have provided regarding foreign exchange etc. this has been really useful as we are such novices.

No doubt we will be in touch again when we have had a chance to think things over.

Regards, Helene & Stuart.

Sometimes a viewing trip does not result in a sale for Cle France but it always rpresents the start of an excitring journey for our clients as they narrow down what type of property and in which region of France they want to buy. We hope to help Helene & Stuart on thier journey to owning a House in France very soon.
