November 2015 issue of French Property News out now!

A preview of what you’ll find inside our latest issue – ski special

France has recently been named as the world’s number one ski destination and this month’s special issue is full of information on where to buy a ski property, why they have year-round appeal and make a particularly savvy investment, and how to maximise their financial potential if you want to rent one out. Away from the snow we explore Gard in Languedoc-Roussillon and follow the Canal du Midi, and discover why châteaux have become more affordable in recent years. We’ve also got tips on removals and installing phone lines, and our expert tackles the most common misconceptions about tax residency.
