gloria Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 A jointly-owned 12th century property in the Var was awarded to me as part of a UK divorce process. I haven't been there in years and would like to sell it to a private buyer. Does anyone know what the French authorities require and if I can do the paperwork from the UK?thanks!

Albert the InfoGipsy Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 To sell property in France you need a notaire. I suggest you try finding one near the property and write a letter (they often ignore emails) asking if they would handle the sale and what paperwork they need.This list will be a start.http://www.annonces-immobilier-notaires.com/nego/annuaire-des-notaires-departement.php?departement=83&ville_choisie3=Var Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
