Want to sell and know you need to target the UK market as well as the French? We specialise in marketing to a primary audience of UK and English-speaking buyers.
As a licensed French estate agent and member of the Federation Nationale d'Agents Immobiliers (FNAIM) Pastures Greener is able to value your French property, market it and sell it directly on your behalf, taking care of the process from end to end with the greatest of care and attention.
We offer a cutting edge mix of PR and marketing and allocate our resources to actively maximising the marketing exposure of your property to a targeted English-speaking clientele through a mix of online and print advertising, PR, direct marketing and social media giving you the competitive advantage over other rival property vendors.
Clients are qualified and a great deal of pre-sales work goes in to defining our buying clients' needs and priorities before ever getting to the stage of viewing.
We are by your side from valuation onwards in an advisory capacity and are happy to explain the unfamiliar sales process, advise on the market and organise comparison valuations with other reputable estate agents at your convenience.
We can also put you in touch with translation and legal advice to aid the understanding of the documents to be completed and have a network of contacts from property management to cleaners, and tradesmen to interior decorators, to help you over the various practical hurdles of a house move to France and make the whole process as smooth and pleasant as possible.

Type of Mandat
Mandat Exclusif - Exclusivity means that no other agent may sell on your behalf nor may you sell direct during the period of exclusivity, which last a minimum of 3 months and unless cancelled continues until the conclusion or expiration of the contract. The Mandat Exclusif entitles you to our highest service levels with a tailored marketing and publicity campaign throughout the period of exclusivity. Please contact us for further details.
Mandat Semi-Exclusif - semi-exclusivity means that no other agent may sell on your behalf during the period of semi-exclusivity but that you may find a buyer by direct means (word of mouth, advertising) yourself providing you then pass that client to Pastures Greener to take care of the sale. In this case the commission is halved. The period of semi-exclusivity is likewise of minimum 3 months and unless cancelled continues until the conclusion or expiration of the contract. Service level is as for exclusivity but this type of mandat is only to be recommended for those able to put the time and budget to their own advertising or who have true word-of-mouth access to potential clients.
Mandat Simple - The Mandat Simple is the non-exclusive type of mandat and means that any other agent may sell on your behalf, that you may still find a buyer directly yourself and are not obliged to have an estate agent deal with the formalities if you do. Where in this case you have the opportunity to go "multi-agency" and will benefit from footfall by being in several different agencies the Mandat Simple offers a standard service level and marketing package.
