Mike,
Thanks for your e-mail and the work that you have done to promote our house. It's reassuring to have an agency who keep in touch and act promptly. Let's hope that the response is good. We always have the house in a very presentable condition awaiting prospective buyers.
Best regards,
Phil Patter

Hi Marion,
Thank you for your email, your service is absolutely amazing!
My trip to France has been unavoidably delayed, but I will contact you when I have more definite plans and we can discuss possibilities.
Thank you again for your attention,
Kindest regards,
Diane

Hi Jacqui,
Myra and I would like to thank you for all the help you provided throughout our search for our French home. From day one you made a point of clearly understanding our needs and lined up a great list of properties for us to visit, all of which had a lot going for them.
When you took us to what is now 'our' house we were immediately impressed that you found something that ticked every box. But that wasn't all! You guided us through the purchase and, acting as interpreter, you eased our minds that every legal issue was clearly understood by us.
On top of this you managed to also source some very good furniture (from our 2nd choice house on your list) that the owners were selling and when we last visited you spent all day taking us to various stores so we could purchase the other necessities for a comfortable stay. Truly above and beyond the call of duty!
We have purchased many homes over the years and I have to say that no other Agent has come close to you in terms of your professionalism, friendliness and genuine wish to make the transition as painless and seamless as possible.
Even now, after the deal is done you continue to offer help wherever possible and for that we are truly grateful.
Thanks for everything you've done for us Jacqui and we look forward to meeting "our newest friend" again on our next visit.
Best regards,
Dave and Myra

Dear Mr Longley,
My wife and I recently completed the purchase of a house in Montjoi and we would like to express our sincere thanks to your company and to Ruth Sutton in particular.
From when we first viewed the property in June through to the completion of the sale on Christmas Eve, Ruth has been committed, supportive and determined. She has been nothing but professional and helpful throughout a process which, for Brits buying for the first time in France, can be a little daunting to say the least. Furthermore, the sale was far from straightforward and we would like to stress that Ruth’s professionalism, care, integrity and commitment made sure that we got ’there’ in the end. Ruth has been so supportive throughout the entire process and, to be frank, we do not think that we would have managed to complete the sale without all that she did.
We are very happy in our new house - thank you again to Beaux Villages and especially to Ruth. Happy new year.
Best regards
Michael & Cathie

Hi Jacqui
It is finished !!
I have had an email from the notaire that the sale was signed under proxies today.
I cannot let this moment pass without sending you our most sincere thanks for all your help in this long drawn out saga. It has been a real comfort to know that there was someone who was not only sympathetic to our cause but also very efficient.
Perhaps you would let us have the meter readings so that I can check them against the figures from EDF and RESE.
Have a super new year.
Kindest regards
Kay and Brian Wright

Dear Jacqui,
I am writing to you to express my deepest thanks for all your time, patience and effort over the last 5 months during my house search in France.
I am now the proud owner of a lovely house which, when the renovation is finished, will make a beautiful holiday home for myself and family.
Your help and advice thoughout has been invaluable, seemingly always " there ", even during the weekends. Even once the sale had completed you were still actively helping, getting the electric and water supplies transferred into my name.
I hope I get to enjoy the house for many years but if and when the day comes to sell the property, I will be instructing Beaux Villages to act for me.
I cannot thank you enough.
Very best regards
Paul Caplan

We would highly recommend house-hunting with Edite Hill. She is hard-working, totally professional and very good company. Edite makes house-hunting as easy, effective and pleasant as it can get.

Dear Rob & Lynn
I am writing to pass you some feedback about our recent viewing visit to France (14-17/11/14)
We are currently searching for a property as a permanent residence. My wife Julia & I are planning to move there in 2015.
We have been searching for the past 2-3 years for a suitable property. Of all the agents & agents’ representatives we have met in France we have found Judith Whitlow to have been the most consistently professional & helpful. Over many months she has helped us narrow down our search & we spent a day with her last week viewing several properties, one of which is one of our favourites & a possible candidate for purchase.
She is a very sensitive & customer focussed person who helped us understand the realities of buying in France & gave us a very useful insight into French living. She also demonstrated a very competent & personable style with vendors.
We will continue to work with Judith to, hopefully, conclude a sale in France.
Btw, we have found the Beaux Villages website to be helpful too.
I hope you find this feedback useful.
Kind regards
Tony Chapman

I just wanted to reiterate how wonderful and helpful you have been from start to finish in relation to our property purchase in France.
Your assistance, patience and skills in navigating through the particular situation we had with the Vendor of the property was amazing. My wife and I are looking forward to inviting you and your husband over to celebrate once we have settled in!
Please do ask prospective clients to contact me if they would like any references or just want to chat through the process and how helpful you are.
Kind regards,
Adam

Just a quick update.
Alan and I found a property in Normandy that we loved and our offer was accepted so let's hope everything goes through ok.
We would just like to say thank you once again for all your efforts on our behalf. You tried so hard to find us a property: we really appreciated your help and your honesty and we wish you and your husband loads of success
we feel you truly deserve it as your business sense does you so much credit and had we not found a property on this trip we would not have hesitated to contact you again.
Kindest Regards and best wishes Gill, to you and your husband,

As Australians searching for a property in France, we understood very little of the language or of
French property law and processes. It was very fortunate for us then, that we happened upon a property that was being marketed by Johanna. She assisted us greatly with every step of the
process, going out of her way to make sure we understood each leg of the transaction and what it
entailed. She also introduced us to a solicitor and between the two of them we received invaluable
advice and excellent service. Johanna even went so far as to stay in touch while she was out of
France on her annual holidays. We can’t endorse enough the service ethic that she has, which has
continued beyond the finalisation of the sale. Thanks Johanna for your assistance and support
during our purchase.

Pour mener à bien notre projet d'acquisition d'une maison à Caudrot en Gironde, nous avons rencontré Vanessa Raffier, consultante en immobilier.
Jusqu'à la finalité de ce projet, soit le 21 juillet dernier, Vanessa nous a épaulés avec beaucoup de professionnalisme et de dynamisme, des dialogues concrets et fructueux avec les vendeurs, se rendant toujours disponible pour répondre efficacement à nos diverses attentes.
Nous ne pouvons que la remercier très chaleureusement.

Many thanks for meter readings which I will post toute suite.
Yes the money has come through. It has been exchanged by SMART (thanks to Caroline). ...
Many thanks to you all for getting us to this position. We felt very cared for going into the office ambiance, or on the phone from UK. House-selling as you know is such a potentially devastating and emotional experience, we truly felt Caroline was our best friend in the time of need!
Best Wishes and thanks for being as lovely and calm as the Dordogne swans, even if they are paddling hard below water. You always welcomed us with a smile and were endlessly patient. It makes your premises an enjoyable place to visit in Lalinde, whatever the reason, and we hope you continue to enjoy good times working there..

I would like to say thank you for easing our way through a complicated house sale, and making it less stressful for us. Being
very helpful every step of the way. We can't thank you enough.

Many thanks for all of your help with our property purchase – we have been delighted by how helpful and patient all at Beaux Villages have been; your assistance has been invaluable and much appreciated. Whilst it is possible I may have some further queries I do hope not. My apologies that I was short of time yesterday and unable to have a drink with you – I just made it back to Toulouse in time, having spent a bit of time at the house.

I've just linked on to my mother's property on your website and just wanted to say thanks - you've really done it justice. It's lovely!

Amazing team with knowledgeable and great customer care.
My partner and I just spent 2 full days with representatives from Beaux Villages for our search for a second home in France. We were so positively blown away by their customer service, the large selection of properties, their very quick ability to assess what we are looking for, and their knowledge of the area and the properties. Really. Their team was so committed to help us during a short visit, to view as many properties as possible, and we left this trip with 4 real contenders for possible purchase. All three of our contacts were very friendly and professional, and committed to help us establish our dream second home ! The agents we are working with are: Carol Somers (Charente), Colin Savill (Dordogne), Edite Hill (Tarn and Lot et Garonne). We are very confident this will lead to us buying one of the Beaux Villages properties.

We are writing to thank you and all of the Beaux Villages team for the help you have provided to us for our retirement move to France.
From the very first contact with Beaux Villages, through to the point where we have now been living in our beautiful house for several weeks, nothing has been too much trouble for you. You responded promptly to all our queries, (however silly!) and made arrangements for the legal part of the purchase to fit in with our complicated time scale . Since moving in, you and the team have continued to help us above and beyond the call of duty. Advice on plant buying, and where to buy lovely things for the house was also extremely useful.
We would have no hesitation in recommending Beaux Villages to anyone looking for that extra level of professionalism in their property sale or purchase.

I just wanted to say a huge thank you - for finding us our
house and for all the help you have given us.
I haven't been involved with much of it because my work
has been pretty full on - but I have been following events
and appreciating all your input.
Now we are here I am up to my elbows - with my new steam
cleaner scrubbing out 30 years of grime, talking to builders
and realising just how much there is to do......
It would be great if you had the time to meet up for a drink,
either chez nous, or anywhere else convenient for you.
If you have had enough of us or are too busy - that's ok too.
Let me know if you fancy it.
Best wishes

Many, many thanks for all your help and support ( not to mention patience) in helping us to find our wonderful new home. You really knew what we were looking for even if we didn't !!
