Hello I wonder ! does anyone have a property ,better still own a lake thats pre- Napoleonic ? what are the advantages ,if any . Thanks
-
Hi Kingshaw thanks for that I tried my best but my french reading not being very good made it a tad awkward ,I think your quite a distance from mmm lets say alencon (30 mins from us) so I guess transport cost could be quite a bit and viewing would be a problem ,would'nt it? anyway thanks again Eddy

hiya we are (wife and I) buying very soon ,signing on monday week and this inheritance thing is a bit of a worry to us to say the least, we are second time marriages both have two kids each (grown up one's) we want to leave the property to who ever lives the longest to do as they wish i,e sell and return to uk or stay in france . I read that the tontine is changing to enable the surviver to inherit the property without the tax problems ,anyone know if this is so? if that is the case then change of marital regime (C/U) would not be the best option ,any idea's ? Also we want to start a business very soon, just the two of us no employees, running a carp fishery.

Renting out your house in the UK
thetwoofus replied to Athene's topic in Finding/Owning French Property
Hi while your on the subject of renting in U/K ... we are selling our house (offers in and ball rolling}what we are looking for is somewhere to rent in Dover area or at least south kent untill we find a property in France .Our furniture is going into storage so furnished property is better for us, we'll carry on working over here and then trip over weekends, so if anyone knows anyone or someone who has anything to rent we 'd like to hear from them ,,thankyou -
so how does this fit,,,, wife and I each have two older kids each from previous marriages, so far so good,,,,I was a widower when we meet ,,,,and she was divorced, ok now, so we got married and a few years down the line we divorced and split. some time later we got back together and remarried ,,,, phew,,, now we want to live in france and start a business ,we are thinking C/U has to be the best way to go . but is it ???? I dunno ,,wad ya rekon.... I thankyou

Furniture - Move it or buy a new lot?
thetwoofus replied to Albert the infopikey's topic in Finding/Owning French Property
Hello As a matter of interest on furniture etc what of storage companies we are in Herts and intend putting ours into storage, any comments on this subject?. We intend to take almost all our furniture with us whether we do it ourselves or get a company to do it I'm not sure as yet,have to estimate costs etc and the time factor. Im an hgv driver so size of vehicle is no problem just the aggro of returning the vehicle to uk .Idealy we would like to find a storage Co in the south east(kent area) just make things easier. -

-
Thanks Gardian that sounds cushty was you refering to interest from the bank ? only money from uk would be the pension £270 a month. swift reply thanks

Hi all We are in the process of selling our house and all being well shall be looking for a place in France in the course of the year. So I am looking into money transfers , I am intending to use hifx for the bulk of cash, but I have a pension albeit a small one payed monthly into my barclays account, and is tax free, so I am wondering how I would go about getting that cash over to france and what if any tax implications are there. could I just get barclays to pay it to hifx by dd and then transer over to french bank ? Not being fluent on the financial things I thought I'd ask on here first ,,,cos I know your all so clever bit of crawling never hurt anyone just the knee's
