Asking around you will get many differents visions, some very optimistic. We are going to pr\u00e9sent a realistic overall\u00a0time frame to buy a property, to allow you to allocate enough time. Because in France whatever the type of property you are considering to buy, you will enter a similar process. So let&rsquo;s look at the chain of mandatory steps, framed by the french laws, that any project automatically involved.<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-399 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/homme-et-3-rouages.jpg\" alt=\"Buying-Property-France-Standard-mandatory-steps\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/homme-et-3-rouages.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/homme-et-3-rouages-150x150.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Property buying\u00a0process steps<\/h2>\n<p>According to the project and circumstances, some steps might go very well and diligently, and others will be harder to deal with and take more time than expected.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Finding the property : anything between 1 monts to many more<\/li>\n<li>Making an offer and\u00a0negotiate :\u00a0anything between 1 day and many weeks<\/li>\n<li>The vendor accepts your offer<\/li>\n<li>Signing the Pre-contract : from the day the vendor accept your offer, it will take 5 weeks minimum<\/li>\n<li>You are ready for completion : Usually 3 months after the pre-contract is signed<\/li>\n<li>Moving in : and the end of the completion meeting you are given the keys and can move in<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>So if we add up the time needed for each steps, you get a good and reliable estimation, of 5 to 6 months. This is how long it take your, to buy a property in France. In fact this is most probably a minimum, that you should realistically allow for you project.<br \/>This is a first approach, not entering the possible difficulties. For example the Town Hall might want to preampt the property, or land, and in the end decide not to.<br \/>An other obvious element is that the total amount for the agreed price and the additional costs (Fees, taxes) is transferred and received the hands of <em>Le Notaire<\/em>, a few days before completion day.<br \/>Remember that many people will give you more optimistic dead lines to please you, but take our word for the reality.<\/p>\n<p>We will look in great detail at each of these steps, in the coming chapters.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>Potential complementory steps<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Quite obviously every project has its specifics that can interfere with the process.<\/p>\n<p>To keep things more simple, we didn&rsquo;t add the time applying to more specifics cases. For example when the buyer wants to undertake important works that require a building planning permission (<i>Permis de construire). <\/i>That are\u00a0summited to local authorities (<em>Le Service de l&rsquo;Urbanisme de la Mairie<\/em>). You need it to modify the exterior of the property (Gates, openings, &#8230;), or the frontage, the windows of an existing house. And quite obviously to build a new one, \u00a0or an extension, a swimming pool (not always), etc.<\/p>\n<p>As it is easy to imagine, that has major impact on the process and the agenda. The local administration has 2 months to answer, when the request file you sent is complet. \u00a0If the request is incomplete &#8230;<br \/>According to complexity of the demand and where the property is located (<em>site class\u00e9<\/em>, <em>carri\u00e8res<\/em>, &#8230;) , it can take between 3 to 6 months to prepare the project with your advisors (Architects, &#8230;). We have written a specific chapter on those very specific and more complexe types of projects.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-400 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dossier-credit-professionnel-SCI-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"Property-purchase-time-is-money\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dossier-credit-professionnel-SCI-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/dossier-credit-professionnel-SCI.jpg 640w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-392\" src=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Signature-doc-en-bandeau.jpeg\" alt=\"Buyin-property-writing-a-wish-list\" width=\"730\" height=\"223\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Signature-doc-en-bandeau.jpeg 730w, https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/01\/Signature-doc-en-bandeau-300x92.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 730px) 100vw, 730px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Tips<\/h2>\n<p>Therefore keep in mind that whatever you are being told, the standard (minimum) time scale is 6 months. And clearly more if you are looking for something very specific, or if you will need a planning permission.<\/p>\n<p>For the property buying process to keep flowing properly, a lot of implication is needed from you, or you advisors. We will see in chapter &#8230; , that apart from hiring a Property Hunter, no experts will be at your side during the entire project.<\/p>\n<p>If the building permit is an essential aspect of the project, and therefore if you wouldn&rsquo;t buy if you don&rsquo;t get it. \u00a0We strongly advise you, to introduce a specific clause into the pre-contract. It is call a suspensive condition (<em>une condition suspensive)<\/em>, saying that should that autorisation not be granted, the deal will be void, and the initial payment repay.<\/p>\n<p>Link to next chapter : <a href=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/fr\/real-estate-professionals-in-france\/?lang=fr\">Real Estate Professionals to help you<\/a><br \/>Lock back to : <a href=\"https:\/\/wise-stone.com\/fr\/buying-a-property-in-france-the-guide\/\">The GUIDE synopsis page<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Team Wise Stone<br \/>&#x63;&#x6f;&#x6e;&#x74;&#x61;&#x63;&#x74;&#x40;&#x77;&#x69;&#x73;&#x65;&#x2d;&#x73;&#x74;&#x6f;&#x6e;&#x65;&#x2e;&#x63;&#x6f;&#x6d;<\/p>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So what is the property buying process in France and along long is it ?
