We would thoroughly recommend Eric and his team

Sellers

By Sharon Meyler, 16 November 2023

We sold our house recently using the services of Eric Garnier and his team at Beaux Villages Immobilier, and would thoroughly recommend them to anyone looking to sell/buy in the area. The experience was smooth and trouble-free throughout. Any queries were dealt with efficiently and quickly, and the team were extremely helpful at all times. It was a pleasure to deal with them. Many thanks!

Cathy has been wonderful

Sellers

By Melanie Taylor, 15 November 2023

From the start Cathy has been superb. We decided to move after being in France for 11 years, but had no experience of selling. She explained the process completely, measured and assessed our property and quickly prepared our dossier for the market. Once the ball was rolling Cathy arranged all the necessary appointments and attended where it was helpful to us. We had a thousand questions and Cathy was able to answer them all, no matter how stupid or whatever the time of day. Viewers quickly started arriving, Cathy had prepared a dossier that enabled her colleagues to show their clients around with confidence, and 3 weeks later, we found our buyers, and within 3 months we were signing our house over. Even now, Cathy is still helping us with the handover of utilities and making sure that all loose are tied up for us. We are so grateful to her for everything she has done to make this a very easy journey. Thanks Cathy

We received an amazing service from Geraldine

Buyers

By Emma Anderton and Simon Cross, 10 November 2023

We have recently (September) completed on a maison de vacances in Haute-Vienne using Beaux Villages and I wanted to reach out with regards to our excellent immobilier Geraldine Van Rijs.
 
From the first contact we made with BVI & Geraldine we were taken aback by the high level of service we received. We are based in the UK which made things more difficult. Plus delays in getting going with our purchase due to covid was demotivating. Geraldine was so professional, friendly and helpful with every interaction. She went above and beyond every step of the way. We never felt like we couldn't ask questions, always felt we fully understood the property we had enquired about, and never felt pressured. We felt a genuine warmth and sense that Geraldine too wanted us to find the right property.
 
We are so delighted with our property and the level of service we received. We may have given up hope if we hadn't found Geraldine. We cannot thank Geraldine enough for her continued support with every element of not only purchasing our property but also setting up bills etc and understanding French systems.

Janine went above and beyond

Sellers

By Peter Strachan, 09 November 2023

I am writing to pass on my huge thanks for everything that Janine Wood has done during the last few years in respect of not only the sale of our property, but for the way she has dealt with the many and varied diversions that we have had to travel in order to get to this point. 
 
Janine has provided exceptional service, way and above what one would expect from an agent. She has done this with an attitude unswerving determination to achieve our goal. I cannot thank her enough. 
 

Thank you Merrilees and the Limoux team

Buyers

By Keith Southall, 08 November 2023

We were searching for a new home in the south of France, and we came across Merrilees working out of Limoux. She was one of the most professional people we have worked with whilst we were looking for the new home, she was always cheerful even when the house we went to wasn't quite what we wanted. She was very patient always on time, and we would definitely recommend her services to anybody else looking for a property in the area.

Thank you Heather and Catherine

Buyers

By Lucy and Richard Harris, 06 November 2023

Buying a property in France seemed an overwhelming thing to do but we didn’t need to be worried. After seeing the perfect house for us, we spoke with Heather who immediately put our minds at rest and took time to talk us through the process. Heather met with us to talk us through things. She sent us written information to follow up what she had explained. We bought our house quite spontaneously but it was reassuring to have Heather and Catherine on hand to guide us through step by step.  

The process turned out to be very straightforward. We recently travelled from the UK for the Acte de Vente and were given the keys to our beautiful little house. Heather made sure we had everything we needed, she  advised and supported us with sorting out amenities and made sure things were in place so that we could move straight in.  Nothing was too much trouble and we appreciate the personal touch. 

We have been very impressed with the support from the team at Beaux Villages. Thank you Heather and Catherine for helping to fulfil our family dream. We are so excited about our future in France.

Thank you Lindsay

Sellers

By Judith Hinsley, 06 November 2023

I am writing to you to tell you how very pleased I am with your agent Lindsay Low. The sale of my house in France has been a very difficult sale with endless problems. Lindsay has gone out of her way to resolve these problems as I have been unable to leave England and return to France due to health problems. She has at all times been supportive and encouraging through the bad times, and I cannot praise her highly enough for her friendly and professional manner.

Jacqui made the process so much smoother

Buyers

By Natalie Reilly, 03 November 2023

We recently bought a farmhouse in the Charente area through Beaux Villages. Jacqui Reddin-Williams was our point of contact from the beginning, setting up viewings, negotiating the sale, even coming with us to translate when we met with the local schools. Jacqui has given us lot's of tips and advice, both during the sale and since, and made the whole process much smoother than it could have been. We would definitely recommend Beaux Villages and Jacqui!

Fabulous service from Eric Garnier

Buyers

By Kevin Shearan, 01 November 2023

My wife and I decided we wanted a second home in a bastide town in South West France. My wife had met Eric Garnier about 6 months before our house hunting trip and maintained contact with him. Eric listened and really understood what we were looking for. He set up a schedule of properties that met some or all of our criteria but, critically, added one that he thought would work for us based on his interactions with us. That was the one! However Eric encouraged us to spend the time looking for alternatives before committing. He was extremely helpful throughout the purchase process and beyond, helping with finding contractors and navigating the utility providers. Without his fluent bi-lingual skills we’d have been at a total loss. We still have a lot to do but Eric and his colleagues got us off to a fabulous start.

Thank you Heather

Sellers

By Chris Caselton, 31 October 2023

As our sale completed successfully today I would like to complement Heather Comber, who saw us through what would have been a difficult process without her very friendly and professional guidance. Thanks Heather and Beaux Villages.

Seamless service

Buyers

By Ian Stickland, 23 October 2023

Quite superb service from beginning to end. It made buying a second home seamless, thanks to Stephen Cormack - a role model throughout.

Anna guided us through the entire process

Sellers

By Peter Boardman, 13 October 2023

A huge thank you to Anna Stewart and her team for their professionalism and patience guiding us through the sales process with our property near Verteillac. From placing the property on the market, to the completion 3 months later in September 2023, Anna guided us through the whole process answering all of our questions and queries promptly. She always went the extra mile and suggested local trades people to undertake mandatory pre-sales surveys and works. If you are looking to sell a property, we would highly recommend Anna and her team at Beaux Villages.

Professional, friendly and supportive throughout

Buyers

By Laura O'Riordan, 28 September 2023

As first time foreign property purchasers we were naturally quite apprehensive about the process of buying a home in France, particularly when we didn't speak much French ourselves. Well we need not have worried at all. Nikki talked us through the whole process from start to finish putting us completely at ease with her friendly manner, professionalism and support. She was always available to answer any questions we had or to help us out in any way. We really couldn't have asked for more. We highly recommend Nikki and Beaux Villages.

Eleonore Goodfellow was extremely helpful

Buyers

By Andrew and Jennifer Porter, 27 September 2023

We are clients of Eleonore Goodfellow and would like to tell you how pleased we are with the service she provided. She is extremely helpful assisting us at every step. Her explanations re the property and process were clear and easy to understand. We would recommend her without question regarding her professional ability and friendly approach. We can not thank her enough for her assistance.
Kind regards
Andrew and Jennifer Porter

Fabulous service during the sale of our house

Sellers

By Karen Heaney, 25 September 2023

We have just sold our holiday home in Riberac through the Verteillac office and I can highly recommend. However, I must also comment on the fabulous service we received from Carole who handled the purchase of our property for her client. She went above and beyond to make things go smoothly for us. Thanks Carole you are a star, five stars actually.

I would recommend Cathy without hesitation

Buyers

By Patricia Roberts, 31 August 2023

Cathy Bishop was my agent within BVI. From the initial viewings and throughout she had exceptional qualities that make her an excellent agent. I was allowed 45 mins per visit compared to other agencies that rushed me through my viewings. Cathy is very professional. Always kept in touch replied straight away to any contact I made and helped me with any questions I had. If not known she would find out for me. Cathy helped from the beginning to the end when I purchased my property. I would fully recommend this agency to others.

Nadia Van den Rym was a pleasure to deal with

Buyers

By Andy and Beccy Reed, 31 July 2023

We have so much praise and appreciation for the service we received from Nadia. From first contact, through to the moment we received the keys to our new home nothing was too much trouble. Nadia responded to communications promptly and professionally and guided us through the process in a friendly and informative manner. She was a pleasure to deal with and we cannot recommend Nadia highly enough. Thank you 

Nadia was incredible!

Buyers

By Diana McDonald, 18 July 2023

From the moment we started emailing, I knew I had found someone who would actually listen to my quite particular and specific requirements, which saved me so much time (and money) in the long run. I have developed many properties (in 3 different countries) and have dealt with many agents over the years, and can honestly say Nadia is hands-down the best I have worked with. Friendly and professional whilst keeping in very regular quick and concise contact. Beaux Villages are definitely the best agents in the area with the broadest choice - keep up the good work! Dreams do come true

Incredibly helpful and professional

Sellers

By Keith Wyld, 17 July 2023

Ginny was the ultimate professional in bringing about the sale of my property in Lavergne and I can’t thank her enough for all the help and support she provided. Ginny backed by the team at Beaux Villages helped to deal with unusual, difficult and complex issues surrounding my sale and she deserves a medal. In my limited experience, buying or selling property in France is never straight forward. Add to that the language issues that occur in many unfamiliar situations and the ever changing regulations you really do need true professionals by your side and I recommend Ginny and the team to anyone looking to buy or sell.

Laura Croxford and her team were excellent

Sellers

By John Mellows, 05 July 2023

After an unsuccessful attempt to sell my property in St Beauzile with another agent, I appointed Beaux Villages and they were very successful! Laura Croxford of Beaux Villages was professional, committed and extremely helpful. More than that she was a delight to deal with and always prompt in her responses and actions. She went above and beyond assisting on a range of issues including finding a very helpful man and van to remove and dispose of 19 years of accumulated rubbish! I am extremely grateful to her and her colleagues for guiding me through a very stressful and complicated process. I would recommend her in particular and Beaux Villages generally without reservation!
