Michelle28 Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 HiI believe that there may be the possibility of a neighbour to our house 'looking after' it, Key changeovers etc. I want to make sure that all negotiations and payments are strictly legal. Would be really grateful for any advice. Off to France tomorrow and no doubt I shall meet her then. How much does one offer to pay and what paperwork would be required?Would really appreciate any advice.Michelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eslier Posted July 10, 2005 Share Posted July 10, 2005 For it to be "strictly legal", and certainly from an insurance point of view, you would be better advised to employ the services of a company who specialise in looking after gites etc. In addition to the legal and insurance aspects, if you use a company and the person who usually cleans the property happens to be ill one change over day, that's their problem and the job will still be done. If you rely upon a local person there's always the chance they might not be able to work one week for some reason or another and that will be your problem. I'm not sure where you are but if by any chance you are in Brittany there is an excellent registered company there called www.gite-management.com that would be well worth contacting.
