Demand improving in areas of France?

It has been a tough time in the Dordogne in the Aquitaine region of France and surrounding areas for the past 12 months - prices have falled back but now the Brits are appreciating the competitive prices and are returning to the area as buyers

Georgina Caldwell of French Property News says "most estate agents in the area are reporting a reversal of fortunes after a tough 12 months and points out that official figures by FNAIM, the French federation of estate agents, show further evidence of stability."

'I spoke to an agent in the Tarn-et-Garonne department a few days ago who said he'd sold a house every week for the past four months,' says Caldwell. 'The outlook in the market is positive.'

The Dordogne and surrounding departments has been a firm favourite for the Brits - lovely warm and sunny summers in rolling landscapes with the river Dordogne dominating the area. With good access to the coast - Arcachon and the massive dunes - there is plenty to enjoy.
