cooperlola Posted May 10, 2011 Share Posted May 10, 2011 You might remind your friends to be aware that local farmers always have, by statute, first dibs on any property with land which comes up for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chezstevens Posted May 10, 2011 Author Share Posted May 10, 2011 Good reminder ... happened to us with our agricultural parcel. :) That was 1993. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angie Posted June 7, 2011 Share Posted June 7, 2011 Hi, any idea roughly what their budget is please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chezstevens Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 They are flexible to a point. I have no wish to state a budget. Offer the property at your asking price and if they are interested they will contact you.Not being awkward just honest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virginia.c Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 Hhhmm. Let me see if I've got this right. Your friends are looking for a particular type of property. You would like to be pm'd if anyone on the forum has something which might fit their brief. We shouldn't expect replies though if we don't fit their 'brief'. You won't provide a piece of information ie budget which would allow us to determine whether we fit the 'brief' or not.If you want to help your friends please do Forum members the courtesy of treating them with respect.

Chezstevens Posted June 8, 2011 Author Share Posted June 8, 2011 Virginia,I understand your thoughts. Offering your property is voluntary - it costs little time and may prove more effective than the property websites. They have stated the area and are flexible. They have viewed many properties and are returning in July - they will continue to look until they find the property that suits. Not looking for a large house, but needs to have been professionally renovated with stables and land. They have extended their search area to include Limoges.I don't need to get further involved - just a potential sale for somebody with the right property at a sensible price.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
