I have purchased a plot of land in the Dordogne and would like to to use builders from England. I have been told if I do this I won't have the building certificates which I will need if I decide to sell within 10 years. Does anyone know if this is right? If it is and I go ahead, will I be able to sell if I decide to? Thank you everyone for your replies, but I may not have made myself clear. I would like to use fully qualified british builders to build the main frame. I will then use French artisans such as plumbers and electricians, ground workers for everything else.These english builders would be fully insured, hopefully in France.Would this not satisfy the frnch authorities? Thank you Margaret Dover Kent
