Hello. I agree that French property links is a good one as is Prime location (once you can navigate around it). Do a google search within your local area for immobilier+Aquitaine - but I'd advise you to only work with fully registered estate agents and not UK brokers.
French estate agents must have a license and are governed by strict regulations which are there to protect buyer and seller. Unfortunately many UK "agents" start up and class themselves as Brokers - a middle man between you and the French agency. They take their money from the Frenchy agency and this obviously means that there's less room for negotiation by the buyer as the French agent has to factor in the middle mans's commission! Add to this and the fact that the vast majority of them are working totally illegally in France, you're much better putting your time into finding a real, English-speaking, fully registered agency.

You'll recognise a real French agency as they'll be able to give you their Carte Professionnelle number and the amount they hold a guarantee for.

Wishing you the very best of luck in your property search!

Just a quick note if you are planing a visit La Tourane near Font Romeu is a great little hotel run by Dave, tell him that Melanie recomended him and prepare for a warm welcome and good food

I would recommend seymour-james which comes out number one on google for property south west france.

Please try 1st for French Property

A couple of my friends have used "Cannes Riviera Properties", search them in Google - what I was impressed with was the company nature, fairly small, lovely people and good ethics - they will get you a good deal, although their prices can be quite expensive

Hi,

I'm new to totallyproperty.com so forgive me if my comment is misplaced.

We are based south of the Dordogne and North Lot-et-Garonne and have several hundred properties for sale all within 40 minutes of Bergerac airport.

We'd be delighted to hear from you if you feel we can be of help.

Many thanks,

but i've just used them
the other problem is that they charge a fee. :S

Don't know whether its worth it but i used them. More because i was intrigued and thinknig of getting into property in germany.
But they do for FRANCE too.
Well any where in Europe

Just tell them what you want, how much you have and they find upto ten suitable properties.

You pay 0.1% of your budget and they do reductions if you look for more than one property.

I was looking for two in germany, a 2bed flat in berlin (they sent me only 6 for that) and a 5bed house in the countryside (they sent me 11 :S) lol.

They charged me 0.05% of my berlin budget
and 0.075% of the countryside one.

Well worth it.
The one they found in the country was well worht it

Email if interested, well message me here yeah?

Hope this is useful.
I found the site to be very much soo!

I'm a strong advocat for buying directly from the owner. In France this will save you 6% or more. Have a google search for 'maison à vendre particulier' or "particulier a particulier" or "entre particuliers".

We used Home for French Pyrenees Property

They are english agents fully registered and licensed in the South West of France. They are direct with the owners of the property they sell and also they will search out specific properties in specific locations if you need them to

Steer clear of a company called ABAFIM - based in Tarbes - they are con merchants!!

Hi,

The website is not the most user friendly, however the properties they sell are well worth a look at. The company is currently selling properties (apartments, suites and villas) within a 4 star resort, names "Amadia" on the Basque coast (near Biarritz).

Hope this is of some interest...
