Offer made

Made an offer for the first house in Ploubalay that was quite a bit lower than the asking price because of the fact that it needed septic tanks, a 'new' roof and some major internal renovations.

The reason for this house was because of the investment potential, i.e. splitting the property into two houses and selling each. I did some calculations last night and reckon I can complete the pair for less than 100,000 euros even with a contingency of 15,000 euros.

Sometimes you just have to 'go for it' because the perfect place never comes along

Just have to wait and see what happens

These are our experiences of running a gite business in Brittany, France. A gite is the French equivalent of a country holiday cottage. French culture, language, taxes and bureaucracy. Find out about our gites using the links on the LHS. This is our fourth season (2006) and we are looking forward to the summer. Stories about the road to this point will be added in due course. Renovation nightmares, builders, stress, schooling etc. Stay tuned.
