| We are wholly independent property finders,
operating primarily in the beautiful Dordogne River Valley and surrounding
regions of France, from our base near St Céré, Lot.
This is quite a large chunk of S.W. France, encompassing the Lot
département, the Dordogne, Southern Corrèze. and,
now, into the Lot and Garonne... with Eymet remaining ever popular!

We are independent and are not affiliated to any estate agent. As
such, we are able to approach anyone - private seller, estate agent,
notaire - whilst we conduct an unbiased, whole market search, in
our determination to find the ideal French property for you to buy.
The emphasis here, of course, is "... for YOU"
For any French estate agent, in common with their British counterparts,
can only show you the properties that they have been mandated to
sell. In spite of the fact that you, the buyer, end up paying for
their services, when selling a property to you, French estate agents'
loyalties must lie with their client... the seller. Not you. The
buyer.
In addition, of course, the way in which the relationship between
seller and estate agent works here in France, means that once the
agent and property seller have agreed the price that the seller
wants for the property, the agent then ADDS his percentage to this
price. So, in effect, you are paying the seller's agent!
As this commission could amount to over 24,000 euros on a 300,000
euro property, you can better understand the need to proceed carefully
when searching to buy your French property!
