You will find that your notaire has them. Sometimes the notaire will post them out to you when he / she receives them back from the various land / mortgage registration bodies they are sent off to - it normally takes a minmum of 6 months for them to come back. I have found that they the notaires have stopped posting them out more recently - too many copies get lost in the post etc. so they tend to wait for you to contact them to ask for a copy - they will always keep the originals by the way. At the same time they should be able to confirm to you whether you are entitled to a small refund of part of the notaire's fees. Once the various bodies have had and registered the purchase the final notaires fees are calculated and sometimes a refund is due. I received 500 euros back from my notaire - so it is always worth asking for a copy of the deeds and whether there is a refund due. It was paid into my French account directly as I gave the notaire my RIB at the time of completion. Hope this helps.
