4 steps to finding your dream home at the French Property Exhibition 2023

The French Property Exhibition is back in London on 28th & 29th January, 2023 and we’re looking forward to meeting you there – there’s still time to get free tickets here. These are our suggestions on how you can make the most of your visit and set yourself up for finding that dream home in France:

1. Come prepared

There’s so much going on at the French Property Exhibition it can be hard to know where to start. Before you arrive, consult the show guide so you can plan your visit. To get the most out of the show, jot down any key questions you want to ask the exhibitors; it’s easy to get distracted on the day so you’ll want to remember your queries and be able to place them to the experts. You can also take a look at the exhibitor list and do your research in advance.

2. Get free expert advice

At each stand you’ll find an expert from all different aspects of French property, and they’ll be more than happy to answer your questions, help you on your search and offer their expertise. In addition to this seminars will cover important parts of life in France, from buying property and running a business to specialist advice. All seminars are led by experts who’ll be sharing the kind of indispensable advice you’ll need for making your French dream a reality. The seminar timetable is published on the website in advance of the show, giving you time to plan your day and ensure you get the most out of your visit. All sessions are free to attend, and tickets are available on a first come, first served basis.

3. Be realistic

When talking to agents, currency and mortgage experts, it is helpful if you have a good idea about the state of your finances. With an overview of your personal situation, experts will be able to give you more tailored advice. Even if you don’t know the exact figures yet, with so many properties to choose from, having a rough-but realistic budget in your head means you can focus on houses that are within your budget.

4. Find the perfect property

Browse thousands of properties for sale at every budget and chat to the English-speaking agents who are selling property from across France. Across the Channel agents tend to be local to their patch, this means they are experts on where they sell their houses. Talking to them face to face is the best way to discover everything you need to know about the market in the area in which you’re hoping to buy.

We’re looking forward to seeing you at the French Property Exhibition – à bientôt!
