When looking at current international property transactions you will notice that the time people spend travelling to their property is an important factor when making the decision in what country to buy property. Both the time travelling to France and within France is short compared with other popular countries, due to a good infrastructure and well functioning public transport. This, combined with a high level of comfort, is an important reason why people choose for French property.
People interested in buying property abroad have several criteria they keep in mind during their property search. Clearly you will need to be attracted to both the country and the region where the property is located. Whether someone is attracted to a country is highly related to multiple factors – both consciously and unconsciously.
The climate, the property price level and the cost of living are all important factors in the decision-making process. Just as important is the accessibility of the property. Important questions are: where is the property located and how is it situated towards the nearest airport? When owning a property abroad the last thing you want is becoming irritated due to travelling.
France has many main ports and is well known for its well-organised infrastructure, enabling you to reach your property in “no-time”. Buying a property in France guarantees a better accessible property compared to similar located properties in other countries surrounding the Mediterranean.
Apart from the actual distance and the travel time, the comfort during the travel is equally important. The number of flights to and from France is increasing rapidly. As a result you can fly more often to your property against lower fares. Especially the number of flights to the smaller French airports is increasing. Therefore you are now able to fly to an airport located closer to your French property, making the journey shorter and more comfortable. You will be able to visit your property in France more often which makes the joy of having a property abroad so much bigger.
