Living in France

More and more of us are choosing France as the location for our holiday or retirement home, or moving our families there for a complete change of lifestyle.

But is the move as easy as we think and will things turn out the way we expect?

WineDrive can't solve all your problems, but we can help steer you through the confusing and conflicting advice you might be getting. Buying a second home or moving your entire family is a big step and not one to be based on the opinions and advice of a few ex-pats or amateur 'lawyers'.

We tell it how it is. Our people have lived and worked in France for years, and if they don't have the answer, we usually know where to find it. If you sign up for WineDrive Prermier Pages, you can contact us for help.

Meanwhile, talk to as many people as possible, but we will help you sort the 'wheat from the chaff'. Then, when you finally decide a life in France is for you, get the best possible legal advice and make sure you are aware of all the rules, regulations and pitfalls.
