Frequently asked questions

Who is this service for?

Our services are strictly for non-residents who own (or plan to buy) property in France. If you live in France or intend to move there permanently, we recommend contacting

What is included in the Membership?

Depending on your plan, you’ll get 4 to 8 hours of expert help per year. That includes phone/video calls, email responses, document reviews, and assistance with taxes, syndics, bills, and more. You also get access to a secure client portal and personalised tax alerts.

What if I’m still in the process of buying?

Then Buyer’s Access is for you. It’s a one-time support pack designed to help you make the right decisions when buying a property in France — covering legal, tax, and practical matters, with real human experts on your side.

Why is the Membership limited to 300 people?

Because we personally handle each member’s file. We’re not a call centre or chatbot — we’re a real team, and we want to keep the service human, available, and high-quality.

Do you handle income tax returns or on-site property management?

No. But we can help with everything surrounding your second home: local taxes, letting registration, document explanations, and more. For income tax returns, legal issues, or on-site services, we’ll connect you to our trusted partners.
