Property for Sale in the Charente

- without Agents

Have you been looking for property for sale in France, but wanted to avoid paying large agency fees?

Nobody can blame you for that!

When buying a property in France, it is the purchaser who pays the Estate Agent's fees, not the vendor. And the Agents usually charge between 5 to 10 per cent of the property price!!

So it's no surprise that around half the homes for sale in France actually get sold privately using the local Notaire's office to make sure that both parties are protected.

On these pages we have listed properties that are for sale by the owners.

How does it work?

If you are looking to buy a property and you see something that you are interested in click here to request property information and we will get in touch.

If the property owner is happy for us to pass on their contact details and the purchaser is comfortable with contacting the owner, we will put both parties in touch. There is absolutely no fee for this service.

How do we get paid? We will only charge if either the owner or the purchaser asks us to get involved to help in any way.

You will get an idea of the type of services we provide on the

You can see a list of the type of services we offer here... Testimonials page. Typically, we will be asked to put together a list of properties for a client to view when they come over to the Charente. Some of these may be registered with estate agents, but often they will be for sale privately.

For example, next week Sarah will be driven around the Charente - Dordogne border by a semi-retired local farmer. He knows many properties, large and small, that are (or shortly will be) up for sale whose owners prefer not to use agents. This is part of a couple of commissions we are currently working on. The clients will obviuosly be getting first pick of these, but any they do not choose will be appearing on these pages in the near future.

Sarah only charges a flat fee for her time, which people find is far more cost-effective than paying tens of thousands of euros to an estate agent. As an example: on a house sale of 140,000 euros your saving would be between 5,000 to 12,000 euros.

If you would like to ask Sarah about finding a property in the Charente for you, just drop her a line here.
