First-time buyers’ guide to France – process, pitfalls and costs

February 19 @ 3:45 pm – 4:45 pm GMT

Buying your first property in France shouldn’t feel like a leap into the unknown – but for many buyers, that’s exactly how it feels. A notaire-led legal system, unfamiliar timelines and costs that don’t always show up on the listing can leave you unsure where to start. This practical, straight-talking webinar is designed to give you clarity before you commit.

Over 60 minutes, our panel of experts will walk you through how buying property in France really works, and how to avoid the mistakes that catch out first-time overseas buyers. You’ll hear from a currency expert at Smart Currency Exchange, a lawyer from Tees Law and a local agent from Halkin Riviera, each sharing insight from years of helping British buyers succeed in France.

In this webinar, we’ll cover:

  • How the French buying process works, from offer to completion
  • The role of the notaire and other professionals
  • Typical costs, taxes and fees buyers often overlook
  • Common first-time buyer mistakes and how to avoid them
  • Choosing regions, budgets and property types with confidence
  • Your own questions

This session is ideal if you’re researching buying property in France for the first time and want a clear, reliable starting point.
