Clé France

Hello Sharon,

We viewed several properties and eventually we bought with Cle France.

Your professionals helped us when filling in completion forms in french and it was stress free!

Thank you and everyone who helped buy our dream.

Steve & Katerina from Birmingham.

That is no problem at all Steve & Katerina, we guide hundreds of people every month through the buying process and get them to the end result of French property ownership without a hitch! after all it is what we do. We wish them many happy years at their house in Brittany.

Let us guide YOU through the French Property Buying Process!

And as several of our clients say "Follow your heart and make the move"!

Hello Sharon,

The viewing was good. The property was exceptional but not quite what we were looking for. Not too many amenities close by. The agent was great. He showed us every inch of the property and answered all of our questions.

Stephen and Marie.

First time viewings don't always end with a property purchase, sometimes it takes a second trip [or more] to find the right property for you, but each time you learn a little more and there is always more houses to look at! Better luck next time Stephen and Marie, keep looking and we will guide you through the French Property Buying Process!

Hiya Sharon,

Sorry I haven't answered you sooner, but as you can imagine, we have been mad busy.  

Everything went through perfectly, and if it wasn't for all your help and of your colleagues it could have been a very stressful process.  

You all made it all extremely easy for us and we would definately recommend you to anyone at all who is thinking of buying in France.

Thank you sooooo much again for everything, I am off for a Grand Vin Rouge now...

Best Regards, Carol.

That's great news, always nice to hear that the final signing day goes according to plan and the process for our clients was easy and stress free, we do after all sell houses everyday so if you are buying then it is best to be with the professionals at Cle France. We guide you through the French Property Buying Process!

Dear Sharon

Firstly we would like to thank you and your agent for your help in our search for a property in France. We enjoyed our visit and were very impressed with the service he provided with the delightful sense of humour of your French agent. We particularly liked the second property we viewed but on reflection felt it was larger than we needed and as a result have decided on another one we viewed.

We would not hesitate to recommend Cle France.

Thank you once again.

Pam and Sue.

That's good news, nice to hear that not only our clients had a nice time in France they also made the next step on the French Property Buying Process!

Don't forget your phone Charger... and adaptor!

It is so easy to get to France we do not see it as "international travel" anymore, but it is! there are a few things that you absolutely need to remember when you faites vos valises (pack your bags). In our electrically charged modern life, making sure you have all the right converters for your appareils électroniques (electronic devices) is one of the most important things to remember.

La puissance électronique et la tension (wattage and voltage) can change from country to country [although UK to France is the same or just about 220/240], and even if you have the right puissance électronique, la prise (the outlet) might also be different and need un autre adaptateur (another adapter)!

 Tired from all the travel, I went to look for le chargeur (the charger) when mon ordinateur (my computer) displayed the low battery message:

"Votre batterie est faible. Branchez votre PC sur secteur."

Your battery is low. Plug in your computer to an outlet.

Then I realised I forgot le chargeur en Angleterre !

I left to buy a new one, but a lot of the technical vocabulary for les câbles et les adaptateurs was unkown to me, and I wasn’t even sure if they would have the right chargeur for mon ordinateur!

I looked up the important words and went out (after checking to see which stores were open). Une fois au magasin d’informatique (once I was at the computer store), finding the right chargeur was easy. De plus (what’s more) it worked perfectly with both mon ordinateur et la prise without any issues!

Un vocabulaire électrique :

L’appareil électronique (m) – electronic device 

L’adapteur (m) – (electric) converter 

Le transformateur – (electric) converter 

Le convertisseur – (money/measurements) converter 

La puissance électrique – wattage 

La tension – voltage 

La prise – electrical outlet 

L’ordinateur (m) – computer 

La batterie – battery (for computers, cell phones, etc) 

La pile – battery (AA, AAA, and other non-rechargable batteries) 

Le chargeur – charger 

Le câble – cable 

Le fil (électrique) – wire
