Unlike in the UK, where just about anyone can open an estate
agency and sell houses, to open an “Agence Immobilier” in France and
offer houses for sale you must have specific qualifications, no
criminal record, publish your tariffs, have financial guarantees and
insurances. For your peace of mind, using a registered Agency with a
Carte Professional number should be your first, and possibly most
important step in finding your property in Brittany. Breton Homes is
proud to quote their number of 275 issued in the Côtes D’Armor, if
an “Agent” who you find on the internet, offering houses for sale in
Brittany does not quote their number, what else may they have to
hide? Don’t be reassured by the fact that these unregistered agents
tell you that the sale will be handled by a Notaire – All sales of
houses in France have to be handled by a Notaire, all this normally
means is that you will be paying the Notaires sales commission plus
the agents commission when you buy a house for sale in Brittany this
way. For further information about buying a house in Brittany.
See the magazine article “To
Buy or Not To Buy” published recently.

Breton Homes prices for houses for sale in Brittany
are FULLY INCLUSIVE
|
|
|
So many other real estate agents in Brittany try to make their
prices more attractive by quoting them FAI (Frais d’Agence Inclus)
and then tell you that they are “inclusive” – Unfortunately, they
may fail to tell you that you will also be obliged to pay Notaires
fees until the last minute, they then tell you that this is
obligatory for all sales of French houses and is at Government set
rates, which can often make you feel that this is ok, if a little
surprised at paying another few thousand euros. Unfortunately with
the more disreputable ones this will hide the fact that this also
includes a Notaires negotiation fee which you will be paying on top
of the “Agents” negotiation fees for selling you a house in
Brittany. At Breton Homes, the Directors decided to include all fees
in the price advertised on our website or in our agencies, which are
then itemised for you on the “compromis” which is your purchase
contract. The price you see is the maximum price you will pay for
your home in Brittany at Breton Homes.
|
|
Breton Homes has five local offices to help you with a choice of
property for sale in Brittany.
|
|
|
Because local knowledge and contacts are
important and to ensure that you have the best choice of properties
for sale in Brittany to choose from at the correct market price for
houses for sale in that area of France. It also means that should
you have a question or requirement to contact us in the future, you
know where to find us, unlike that “agent” with the French mobile
number and no quoted address in France, who arranges to meet you in
the hotel lobby with a copy of the Times rolled under his arm!
Anybody can create a pretty website and make you meaningless claims
and promises – Breton Homes is well established and here to stay, we
keep our promises (why not see what our previous clients have to say
HERE) Trusting Breton Homes to help find your house in Brittany is a
move you wont regret, we didn’t become Brittanys largest English
speaking Estate Agents without being good at what we do.

|
Breton Homes have over 1000 properties for
sale in Brittany on their website.
|
|
|
The properties and photographs on our
website are real houses, which are really for sale, carefully chosen
to give you an idea of the choice of properties for sale in
Brittany, and the difference in style and prices of houses for sale
and available in each of the very different regions of Bretagne. As
we are Brittanys most popular English speaking estate agents and
have many sales per month, our experience and affinity with our
clients has shown us that the best way to choose a property in
Brittany is not by looking at a few blurred photographs over the
internet but by actually visiting houses for sale in Brittany with
us. By doing this, you get to see the views for yourselves, meet the
neighbours, or listen to the birdsong in the trees, or to put it
another way you will be able to “test the ambiance” of having a home
in beautiful Brittany. Our extensive database driven website has
been developed to give you quickly a range of information on real
houses for sale, and to make it easy to contact us to arrange a
viewing. Worth noting, however, that over 90% of our clients don’t
buy the property they came to view . . . . . . . we show them
something perfectly to suit while in Brittany
|
|
Breton Homes takes you to view properties for
sale in Brittany by appointment.
|
|
|
Unlike 90% of the “French property agents” you
may find on the internet with searches such as “houses for sale in
Brittany”, “properties for sale in Brittany” or “Gites for sale in
Brittany” We are not a forwarding agent or middle-man who makes you
20 appointments for your visit of three days, to view properties
which may not be available, with agents wearing a carnation on the
church steps who you may never even find. Even if you could keep all
these appointments to see some houses for sale in Brittany, your
viewings will pass in a blur, leaving you tired and disorientated,
hardly in best condition to take important decisions. Our experience
is that more than four Brittany properties for sale viewed in a
three hour visit to our Brittany Estate Agents is too much to take
in. Rely on our help and experience to make your visit a pleasurable
one, and come and see some houses for sale which meet your criteria
- our clients are often surprised how easy it can be to find their
ideal house in Brittany, they often tell us that our range of
properties for sale in Brittany is the best they have seen, which is
how we aim to keep it.

Breton Homes does not use pressure sales techniques to Sell you a

|
|
We really don’t need to, for when you are
ready to take a decision to purchase a permanent or holiday home in
Brittany, Breton Homes is there to help and assist you, to realise
your dream of owning a home in France. To us, simple logic dictates,
that if we apply ourselves to find and show you the right property
for sale in Brittany, at the right price, your decision to buy will
become a pleasurable end to this first chapter in your buying a
property in France. It is worth noting that as Breton Homes are a
fully registered French estate Agents here in Brittany, any decision
you take to buy one of the properties that Breton Homes has for sale
is protected by French law, giving you a seven day “cooling off
period”. We really don’t see any point in forcing you to sign for a
house for sale in Brittany which you aren’t perfectly sure about,
only to cancel your purchase later.

many aspects of buying, renovating, maintaining, letting and living
in your Breton home. Even if we don’t know the answer, or cant help

Homes, on completion of the sale you will have your services
