Villas and properties for sale in the south of France

Can you imagine anywhere more relaxing to have a second home than the South of France? The blue sky, the warm sunshine, the shimmering sea, the fragrant scent of the mimosa bushes and the lavender fields, the unhurried pace of life, the delicious food and wine? Whether it's as a holiday villa, a retirement retreat, an investment or just to escape the rat race, thousands of people every year are now buying property in the South of France.

However, buying a house abroad can be a stressful task and this is where Petra Villas comes in. Not only can our team of bilingual UK- and France-based property professionals help you find the perfect home and arrange viewings, we'll also provide legal assistance on the French property purchase process and mortgage system, and we'll translate, review and advise on the contracts of sale (compromis de vente and acte de vente).

And the service doesn't stop once we've helped you secure your place in the sun - our after-sales service includes: setting up utilities, forwarding correspondence in your absence, property maintenance and gardening, arranging trades when work or repair is required, and handling the rental of your property should you choose to let it out in your absence (we'll hold the keys and prepare the property for guests).
