How French real estate buyers lose time and opportunities

“French real estate buyers frequently lose a lot of time and often lose ideal buying opportunities because they have not taken the time to figure out what exactly they are looking to buy in France” This is what I heard from a 10 year plus veteran of the French real estate industry when I asked how can French real estate buyer’s increase their chance of getting their ideal property.

Hilary told me that sometimes she will show lots of property to a client by their request but they cannot decide since they are not sure about the lifestyle they wish to embrace in France.

A key to finding your ideal property as I share in the 110 tips French real estate buyers guide is to go through the checklists I offer and figure out the lifestyle in France you want to experience.

This will help you find the French property you want and not miss opportunites because you were not viewing your ideal choices.
