3 possibilities for your real estate investment in Southern France :
– buy a holiday home in Provence
– buy a second residence in Provence and rent it when you are not using it.
– buy a property to resell it shortly after and turn a profit.
Buy a second home in Provence
Nice weather, beautiful landscapes, great cultural life : Provence offers many advantages that make it the perfect holiday destination (especially when you come from rainy and cloudy countries such as England !). The most popular areas in Provence that attract a large and growing English-speaking population are the French Riviera (Nice, Cannes, Antibes… ) and the Luberon. The Luberon offers the advantage of being less crowded than the French Riviera and has conserved a high degree of authenticity. If you are interested in buying a property in the Luberon, we recommand Un Mas en Provence real estate agency. It offers a selection of beautiful properties and their agents are fluent in English.
Buy a property in Southern France and rent it
If you want to make your investment in a second house in Provence more profitable, you have the possibility to rent the place when you are not using it. But renting an apartement or a house when you are not there to take care of everything, can cause many problems. The best solution, hiring a property manager who will take care of the management of paperwork, deal with the works and maintain the place.
Turn a rapid profit with real estate in Provence
The last solution is to find a great offer and buy a property at a low price (an old house needing renovation for example) and to sell it rapidely at a good price to turn a profit. A risky business but which can be very profitable if you have good advice and instinct.
