We recently sold our home in France having used the services of Beaux Villages. From initial contact to signing, it took less than seven months. Prior to engaging Beaux Villages, our home was on the market for over two years with another estate agent having had only serious inquiry! My...
A massive thanks to Mike Sweetnam and his team for the incredible support we received with our property searches and with the purchase of our new property. Mike really took the time to get to know us and develop a deep understanding of what we liked (and didn’t) and went...
Douglas Hines is a professional, patient and informed estate agent. He brings good knowledge of the market and local area and nothing is too much trouble. I found Doug more like an Adviser than an agent. He has a great network to draw on, and is responsive, be it evening...
I was searching for property in the Lot region in January, not the most clement month, but there was one ray of sunshine...her name is Katerina Mahuzier, an agent with Beaux Villages. Katerina goes to extraordinary lengths toact as your advocate, overcoming all obstacles to help you find what you...
We began our house search during the pandemic. We quickly decided Ruffec was top of our list of locations - the train to Angouleme and Poitiers, cinema, stunning church, river beach, market and beautiful walking and cycling were just what we wanted.
We found a few properties but couldn’t visit in...
We cannot fault the support, advice and service that Douglas gave us during the sale of our property. We bought the property from him originally, back in 2016 and he made that process so easy for us that we didn't even look into anyone other than him to contact when...
Excellent agent covering most of France. I found their photos and descriptions on their website to be probably the best I've seen for French properties. I contacted one of their agents (David Smethurst) in the Deux Sevres area and he really knew about the properties and he has a high...
My husband and I recently purchased a house in Dordogne with the help of Rachael Gill at Beaux Villages, and we cannot recommend Rachael highly enough! Throughout the process, from start to finish, she was incredibly helpful - from the initial viewings in person, to answering all our questions so efficiently,...
We chose to see Rob Kearley from Beaux Villages first, upon a recommendation from a friend in Gouby who also has a house listed with Beaux Villages. And Rob could speak English. Our first meeting with Rob, was enlightening, insightful and encouraging! He handled our rather ambitious price expectations with...
Having bought and sold houses in the U.K. for over 50 years, I have had dealings with lots of different estate agents however, I can safely say that Eleonore Goodfellow of Beaux Villages in Bellac, is by far the best ever. Her meticulous attention to detail is refreshing and her...
Eric Garnier helped and represented us excellently. Praise for this man. Nothing was too much for him. Patient, a listening ear, person-oriented, arranging what needs to be arranged, good ideas and above all, confidence-inspiring and calm. Excellent, exactly what you are looking for and need in such emotional times.
When it comes to the purchase of a house in France you don't need a real estate broker. What you need is much more than that: a consultant who accompanies you all the way of a quite complex transaction. From diplomatic mediation between seller and buyer, over to the documentation-crazyness...
