Is Now the Right Time to Buy a Property in France?
What’s been happening recently? Things have definitely changed over the last 3-4 weeks and it seems that now may be the right time to buy a property in France. Activity levels have picked up fairly sharply both in terms of inquiries and client visits. What’s interesting is that this has also filtered down into offers and sales. I’ve just looked through my stats and can tell you that in the last 5 weeks I’ve had 9 sets of clients over from the UK and Ireland. This may mean nothing to you but when I tell you that out of those 9 sets of clients, 8 have made offers on properties you can see why I’m feeling optimistic. I worked for 13 years as a central London Estate Agent and I can tell you that even there those conversion rates are fantastically high. Why is this? This of course is the multi million pound question and I don’t claim to be an economist but I can tell you this. The word on the street in the UK is that things have improved in many sectors.
