I’m lucky enough to be living and working in the heart of rural France, Burgundy. I’ve also been lucky enough to visit many of France’s wonderful regions. When it comes to booking your holiday home in Europe may I whole heartidly recommend France. Infact, when it comes to investing in property abroad to rent out, again, may I suggest France.
Let me start buy looking in to the values of spending your well deserved holidays in France. Simply wine, dine and explore the rural delights. France has the most famous worldwide wine regions of the world including, Chablis, Beaujolais, Cote de Rhones… the list is endless. These wonderful regions includes chateaux, rivers, canals and even mountain regions. The heritage, modern day living, peaceful and vibrant villages and towns. Without question, whatever your taste, France offers something for you.
Now, looking to purchase an investment property abroad? Did you know that France is the most visited country in the world? Yes, France entices visitors from all over the world and yet they are still saying that there are simply still not enough gites and holiday homes to cater for everyone. My region of Burgundy, I am told time and time again that there is an ongoing requirement for more quality and prestige homes to rent. Combine this with the present fall in house prices of French property you have an ideal opportunity to purchase an investment that will not only provide an annual income, but also offer a future investment. Just visit some of the websites out there that offer  French property between €200,000 – €500,000 and you will see some wonderful homes out there ideal for gites or chambre d’hotes.
I would like to recommend an annual publication entitled ‘France’ by www.cheznous.com who list what I would agree with, ‘The definative advertising directory of privately owned properties in France’. This magazine includes some dream property to include Villas, Farmhouses, Chateaux, Cottages, Apartments, Mobile homes and B&B’s.
