A first class service from knowledgeable and approachable professional
From our very first exploratory telephone call with Renee Hopper regarding the sale of our French property I felt confident that our needs were clearly understood and acknowledged. The help and guidance that we received from Mme Bassini and Ms Hopper left nothing to to chance with no assumptions being made about what we did or did not understand. Thanks to their willingness and expertise in communicating with the relevant officials, notaires, estate agents etc in France as well as organising the Power of Attorney the process was as stress-free for us as it could possibly be and for which we are eternally grateful.
