Buying, selling or owning a house in France

Buying, selling or owning a house in France

Many dream of it: a house in France. But make sure you are well aware of all the laws and rules you will have to deal with. For example: who or in what name (or names) are you legally buying? This is important to think about if you own or want a house in France.

Your property in France

A house in France is wonderful - but in the event of death or divorce, it can become legally challenging. Without clear agreements, your heirs could be in trouble.

Note: we do not assist in buying or selling real estate. Nor do we give advice on legal or tax implications.
What we do do: check whether your will (and any prenuptial or cohabitation agreement) is properly tailored to your situation after purchase.
