I have found a lovely little gite to rent, but it is normally used for holiday lettings. I was reluctant to sign a 6-month lease as I don't want to be given notice in July and have to find somewhere else in the middle of the letting season. http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/271 Rental Contracts in France There are over 1,200 articles in our archives at... http://francevoila.com/archives/ Archives Some Recent Articles http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/270 More on Crime http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/266 Robbery at service stations and parking areas http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/265 Using your pension fund for buying overseas property - problems ahead http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/264 Advice on Treating Lead Paint http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/263 More on Car Registration http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/259 Lead, Termites and Asbestos in French Homes http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/258 Inheritance in France - this can affect you http://www.fblog.com/?q=node/view/254 Using your Pension Fund to buy Property in France === Our holiday/vacation rental site is at... http://rentalsfrance.com/ RentalsFrance We advertise holiday villa and gite rentals in most parts of France, established in 1998 we are one of the most prominent and successful villa rentals sites on the Internet - and aim to stay that way.
