You can book a consultation with Fabricio here.

During this consultation we will give you clear insights about the real estate market here, the process of buying a house and, of course, we will explain who we are, what we do and how we can help you!

We will also clearly define your project, better understand your expectations and establish a detailed summary of the specifics, including budget of course.
You can check the details of what is included in our consultation here.

Once the project is clearly defined, we officialize the beginning of our collaboration with an exclusive property search contract, valid for a minimum of 3 months.

We will make a first selection of properties by activating our networks (agencies, notaries, contractors, privates, etc.) and we will upload our findings in your private client account. 

You will then shortlist one or more properties from those we suggest, and we proceed to the pre-visits of the selected listings and sends you complete reports with our own pictures and videos. We can also do direct online video visits.

As the seller does not appoint us, we are totally objective. Our purpose is to choose, among the properties for sale on the French Riviera, only the ones perfectly corresponding to your criteria.

If you plan to visit in person, we can arrange, not just all the viewings, but also the hotel bookings, transfers and any other services to make your inspection trip more enjoyable.

Once you have made your choice and decided to purchase one of the proposed properties, the first thing to be done is to evaluate if the chosen property really meets your expectations from every point of view.

We will then run our own estimation of the priory to check if the price is correct.

From there onwards, if necessary, we will negotiate with the seller to ensure we obtain the best possible price.

From the offer to the pre-contract, it takes about two to three weeks and once you have signed the contract you still have a 10 days cooling-off period to walk away the acquisition process if necessary. 

This leaves us enough time to check all administrative and legal aspects related to the house and condominium, if applies, and also have the house inspected by a contractor, if relevant.

We continue to give assistance throughout the purchasing process, until final signature, maintaining regular communication between you, the vendor and other interested parties (surveyors, solicitors), and translating documents if necessary.

We will also help you obtaining an insurance company for your house, opening a bank account, transferring utilities contracts and using a removal company if necessary.

According to the law governing the real estate profession, FRH only collects its fees when the deal is finalized once our assignment is fulfilled.

If the purchase of your property on the French Riviera is linked to the sale of your current property, FRH can also assist you in the sale of your property, directly or through one of our partners, depending on the location of the property you sell.

RENTERS

If you are planning to move to France and rent as a first step, let FRH be your guide.

Relocating to a new country is an exciting adventure—but it can also be a bit overwhelming. Before making the long-term commitment of purchasing a property, you may want to take time to explore the region, get to know the various neighborhoods, and discover the areas that truly feel like home. That’s a completely natural step, and we’re here to assist you in securing a rental on the beautiful French Riviera.

You might also prefer to rent long-term if you’re unsure how long you’ll be staying in France, or if you’d simply like to maintain flexibility in your housing plans.

That said, renting in France—especially as an expat—can be a challenging process.
It can even feel discouraging enough to make you reconsider your move or postpone your property search. But don’t worry—we’re here to make things easier for you!

Due to the unique characteristics of the French Riviera market (which we’re happy to explain during our free consultation), we are only able to assist with rental searches for budgets starting at €1,500 per month.

That’s why we created our Rental Search Service—to guide you every step of the way in finding your ideal rental on the French Riviera, completely hassle-free.
Our service covers every aspect of the rental process, right up to the signing of your lease. We also provide support with setting up essential services like insurance and utilities, so you can settle in with peace of mind.
