About this listen

This is our real life guide to buying a house, actually a wreck, in France and then renovating it. We tell our story of how we did it and what happened to us on our way. We start at the start with an internet search, visiting France and viewing properties, buying with the help of an estate agent and moving in. Let us hold your hand if you are about to embark on a similar adventure. It’s going to be great fun and even better if you are a little bit prepared for what is going to happen to you. This is where we can help by making sure you don't make the mistakes we did... learn from our hard earned experiences! French words are always going to be difficult but we include two dictionaries for your use. The first contains words to do with houses, words like prelevement automatique… a direct-debit. The second dictionary contains over 650 DIY words for materials and tools which will be essential when you are in your local builder’s merchants. Don’t leave home without this book on your e-reader, and good luck, you will thoroughly enjoy the experience! Table of Contents Introduction; Les Putres… the Beams!; Chapter 1 Why France?
