Tell us a little about your job...
Every client is different and when they are looking for a home – be it a permanent move or a holiday residence – I really enjoy spending a bit of time finding out what they like doing and what is motivating their move. The most recent sale I handled is a new home for a British couple who have just purchased a gorgeous gite complex close to Richelieu. That moment in the notaire’s office when everyone shakes hands and congratulates each other is always feels so full of emotion – the end of a long journey in some ways, and the brink of a new adventure; that for me is the satisfaction of a job well done!
What 3 key pieces of advice do you give to your clients when they’re looking for property in the area?
To visit a few properties on the same day – you might love the first one but a comparison point is always useful
To do your second visit at a different time of day, when the light, the traffic etc might be different
To keep your mind open for a compromise – sometimes people have such long lists of criteria they rule out a property that could have been (almost) perfect!
