Take The Worry Out Of Your Move
If you are planning to move to the Poitou-Charentes region of France and require help with any logistical or administrative matters, a package will be tailored to your personal requirements and circumstances. The aim is to take the worry, frustration and uncertainty out of your move.
Many people who would like to move to France either put the move off until later or never actually make that move. Although they would love to live in France, there is a feeling of uncertainty and vulnerability that prevents them from taking that final step.
The time and cost involved with finding a property that suits your requirements can spiral out of control often leaving you feeling frustrated for a number of reasons. Not being able to cut to the chase and go straight to the relevant person, agency or public department for an important need; coming up against the language barrier; not having the correct documentation when you have finally found the department you were looking for; or finding the place closed when you get there are all common problems encountered by those who are not familiar with the ins and outs of life in France.
Charentes Relocation will plan and prepare you for your arrival so that you spend the minimum of time achieving maximum results. Your time will be used constructively and effectively enabling you to settle in without the worry or fuss. Whatever your circumstances, a solution will be found to make your move possible.

Having Control
Charentes Relocation prepares and controls a move to France from the French side, taking care of matters that are either out of your reach or cost valuable time and money to sort out yourself.
The most unnerving factor of a move to most people is the unknown. This can be substantially reduced with a link to someone who is working for you at your destination and keeping in touch with constant updates on how things are going. You will have control over events that would normally have been out of reach.
You will arrive in France knowing that everything is set up for you, from accommodation to accompanied, pre-booked appointments with the necessary authorities and businesses that will establish you here.

A Constant Contact In France
Any concerns you have can be resolved quickly by speaking to someone in France who can either reassure you by giving a straightforward answer to any questions, or dispel a myth you may have heard. Remember, we are not trying to sell France. If you want to move here, France has probably already been sold to you, so it's the hard facts and knowing what to expect that will enable you to turn that dream of yours into a reality.

Ongoing Help
Once you have arrived, Charentes Relocation can take you through the setting up of all your accounts and amenities. After you have settled in, there will be someone on hand to help if you find yourself in need of help.
Even though you may have been to the region on several occasions, the chances are, your visits will have been holidays. You might not know the the best artisan (tradesman) for a particular job that needs doing, or where to go to get a certain service or information. Once you have instructed Charentes Relocation to take care of your arrival, you will not be abandoned shortly afterwards. It takes more than a few weeks to settle into a new area, let alone a new country, so we will be available for any enquiries after the initial set up of your new life in France.

Possible Situations
Many people prefer to rent a property for a number of reasons. Some prefer to acquaint themselves with an area while they search for a property to buy, while others move for a year or two due to a work contract.
Finding a property to rent can be very difficult with search results often coming up with the more expensive holiday lets. If you have sold your house in the UK and intend to move to and buy in France, it may make more sense to rent an unfurnished house or apartment and bring your furniture with you so as to have your familiar possessions around. You will also have saved on both furniture storage and the difference in rent between the a holiday let and an unfurnished property.
Some people may want to keep their house in the UK and rent it out while they are in France. It is possible to either rent a furnished property or hire furniture to fill an unfurnished rental property.
Others may be reluctant to make the move as they are uncertain of the language or the System in France. It can be a daunting task taking it all in. With someone to turn to for help and guidance, the move becomes achievable.

Keeping Things In Perspective
There are many myths and horror stories of moves abroad which sell books, magazines and TV programmes. If you have mentioned a possible move to France you will very likely have had advice or a story of misfortune told to you by someone who knows someone else who heard that what they are telling you is true. The story of the family who went to live in France, found work or retired and settled down makes for dull reading, viewing or listening.
Likewise, life's day to day problems cannot be blamed on the country where you live. The tale of the broken down car, troublesome teenage son or daughter or leaking water pipe experienced by the family who moved to France is a tale of life anywhere in the world.
When you cut through the "Nightmares In Europe" type publications and programmes you will find that many people have moved before you and would never go back. There are many contented British people living in France and, yes, some of them will still be waiting for the roofer to return their call; but that's just life anywhere.
The move is within your reach. Find out how by getting in touch and having a no obligations chat.
