I'm looking for a rental property too.  This website throws up quite a few good uns! http://www.seloger.com/ Also I have found that the local paper is a good source of small classified ads.  My local paper has a website (find yours by Googling).  These 2 line descriptions don't tell you much - you'll need to just sit there with a phone and a notepad full of questions and get dialling. As to local rents - ask local people (renters).  And while €1,500 a month is more than many people earn (we all know that 60ish% of the world get by on $2 a day or less) it is also about the going rate for a modest 3 bed flat (or spruced up 2 bed) in a good part of town in Nice.  The local market will set the "correct" price. I've noticed that fair priced quality rental properties (in populous areas) don't stay vacant for long. So while properties for sale are sticking a bit in the current real estate market don't linger too long over a good rental. Best of luck.

Hello Blackcat, On the subject of work for your husband, I commuted to France from UK working part time for a numer of months.  I found it quite easy to do.  Is your husband in an occupation where he could undertake consultancy work in the UK? Or even work part time?  I know maybe this would not be ideal for you, but it is a feasible plan B. Oh, and with regards to renting from agencies, beware of the fees    Report
