Hi,
I moved to London 4 years ago and now, I would like to sell my condominium in Paris.
I know it is not easy for english people to get into the property ladder in France, so if you need any advices, I would be happy to help you.
Regards,
Robert
Okey kokey, surely you must by this time have an actual picture rather than an "artist's impression" and why are all these people walking through your garden?
Excellent.
I feel a pattern re-emerging.
Oops forgot to cross-post it, if Peter Saxton needs to start pouring his heart out here's his chance again...
Troy, I love you!
Yes, and there is CGT that has to be paid on the sale even though you are nonresident, and if you don't pay it, the buyer will be liable as the tax will be a charge on the property...
Tam,
The Capital Gain Tax (or "taxe sur la plus-value immobiliere") must be paid by the seller : it is always like that and there is no escape! Once an agreement has been made and validated by the "notaire", the seller has to declare the profit to the "fisc" (equivalent to the inland revenue in UK). But it is not a buyer business : the buyer is not under threat to pay such tax if the seller failed to do it. French laws is different from UK laws.

Troy,
I would be happy to give further details of my flat (interiors and exteriors pictures) but only to serious buyers. Right now, I am not sure you are looking for buying a flat in France...so...
Now regarding my proposal to help people who want to move to France, it is genuine. But I understand that maybe you are already familiar with the country, therefore you don't really need any help from my contrymen. That is always great to know that some english people like my contry ...despite our infamous "arrogance"! ;-)
Look I've seen it on the telly loads. You want a house in france then there are about 30 independent tv companies all making programs for the bbc and ch4 about moving abroad who will help you. They have their own researchers and everything. And if it all goes wrong they just use the footage for another program.
