Today over one million people a year move between EU member states, and most of them take their home contents with them. Prices for these removals can vary dramatically and service levels likewise. So how can the unwary avoid the pitfalls?

Who said the property market was dead in France? Yes, there might be a slow down but there is still plenty of activity.
We are always pleased when one of our private advertisers is successful especially in a niche market such as a Chateau - the chateau was located in the Midi-Pyrenees - and it received much interest!
Let our advertiser Gaynor tell you in her own words:
“After only five months my property has now been sold, I had over fifty inquiries and after three visits a sale was accepted; I wish I had something else to sell! Plus the satisfaction of not having to deal with the estate agents.
Many thanks , great website! I would recommend it to anyone!”
Well if you are looking for a chateau - we do have more - in fact about 125 chateaux at the last count! >> Chateaux for Sale
If you are looking to sell your property in France - you know our site does sell property and not just chateaux! >> Sell Property in France
Good luck!

They do not come any cheaper than this! Hit by the credit squeeze - cannot afford a mortgage? Then here is this month’s bargain property - scratch that this year’s bargain property.
Well OK - it does need a wee bit of work but hey the walls are structurally sound.
As they say “bags of potential with rustic charm”. This is NOT bijoux - you would have a blank canvas with this property. Let your imagination run wild.
Located in the Champagne-Ardenne region of France close to the vineyards of Champage and Burgundy. After a few glasses you will forget all that renovation work.
