Hey Cyril, It's nice to hear good things about France, I live here and love it and am a strong advocate of the French way of life. However, the number 1 question our clients ask is about resale, even if buying a second home for holiday /enjoyment. I maintain that France is safe for resale if...

Hi Brendan, Where around Nice? We are also based in Nice and have not seen any "huge|" discounts anywhere? Some promoters and agents are making an effore on notary fees or equipments but Nice prime properties are still selling. Deirdre
