Francophiles Ltd, Maidstone
Francophiles Ltd is now in its 18th year of selling property in France. The company was founded in 1988, since when many satisfied clients have bought french property as either permanent or holiday homes. Most of the clients come from the U.K. but the company has also sold property to purchasers from other European countries, America, Asia, Africa and Australia.
Recent developments in the company include the opening of our French sister agency Francophiles Immobilier in Morbihan in Brittany,{www.francophiles-immobilier.com}, the addition of leaseback properties for sale, and the selling of properties in Morocco, in Marrakech and Essaouira, Tangiers, Agadir...
Francophiles has more than 2,700 properties for sale in France on its books ranging from cottages to châteaux, and tends to market properties in the mid to upper end of the market. Although all the houses we have on our books are shown on our website we work with link agents and other representatives in France and they are constantly bringing in new properties. They will show any fresh properties to clients when viewing trips are arranged. In addition to those looking to buy for the first time, people wanting to sell their houses in France approach us direct because of our high success rate at achieving a sale. We are always ready to discuss the potential sale of properties with owners looking to sell and move to another house in France or wanting to move back to the UK.
Francophiles, which is based in South-East England, works in many areas of France but specialises particularly in the South West and West (Dordogne, Deux Sevres, Lot, Lot et Garonne, Charente, Aveyron and Gers), the North and North West (Pas-de-Calais, Normandy and Brittany), the East (Burgundy) and the South (Provence and Languedoc-Roussillon).
The Francophiles' team emphasises good service and commitment to clients. Viewing trips are planned, giving house hunters an opportunity to see a wide range of french properties before choosing what they want to buy. They meet our representatives, or in some cases owners of houses, who are fully briefed about their requirements before their visit. Although clients often have a good knowledge of purchasing property, we offer guidance on their viewing which can be anything from detailed information about properties to help and suggestions regarding cultural differences and family integration. When clients find a house they want to buy we also give assistance in ensuring that the sale proceeds smoothly. Francophiles would be pleased to hear from anyone looking to buy a property in France or wanting to sell a french property they already have there.
Francophiles can provide information on mortgages, currency exchange and insurance.
