LONG TERM LETTING

[rockstitch]

Hi, We are moving to France at the beginning of May next year and are planning to rent long term or until our house in the UK is sold. I have tried lots of different web sites on the internet, but most are for holiday lets, I do know that rentals in France are let furnished to be legal. We do have our own furniture but if we could find a place large enough or a barn to store our furniture that would be ideal. Can anyone give me the web address of a long term rental in the area 24 possibly near Domme, Gourdon or Sarlat.

                                Thank you Susan (rockstitch)

I don't understand your post ...  we rent our home in France and it is a normal rental property ie an empty house. We have rented for more than 3 years and live in a comfortable 3 bedroomed house where we have all our own furniture. Is this what you are seeking?

HI SUE, I DID READ THAT IF YOU RENT AN UNFURNISHED PROPERTY THERE IS A MIN OF 3 YEARS RENTAL. IF YOU RENT A FURNISHED PROPERTY IT DOES NOT HAVE A SPECIFICED RENTAL LENGTH. IF YOU GO ONTO FRENCHLOCATIONS.CO.UK, IT WILL GIVE YOU SOME MORE INFORMATION ON THIS.

In that the normal rental contact for an unfurnished property is of 3 years duration - and is then renewable until 9 years has elapsed - then you are right. But, as a tenant, you have the right to terminate the agreement, at any time, simply by giving 3 months notice of your intention.
