We've signed a Compromis

#1 Post by Lori »

We're back from our exploring trip. We saw many homes in the region around Brive. You can most certainly get a lot more for your money there than here in the Vaucluse. The house we found would be a minimum of 500,000€ in the Vaucluse. No question about it.

The region was/is really very pretty. We had never been to the Correze. We were surprised by the endless rolling hills. We drove all over the place. Very pretty, very green, even though they too were on a level Red drought crisis.

We ended up also looking in the Dordogne close to the limit with the Correze. That is where we ended up finding a lovely house. We had not been to the Dordogne in more than 20 years. We loved it at that time, but never would have dreamed we'd end up living there.

We're very pleased about it. Hopefully, all will go as anticipated with the purchase. Acte should be signed around the end of November, unless something puts a snag in that.

This will be our LAST move. :D

Mm. We said that about our previous houses :lol:
Félicitations quand même and don't forget you can have your own notaire at no extra cost.

Oh well done Lori ☺️ How splendid 😊 Best wishes for your new home.

I remember so well your posts from a few months ago asking for members thoughts on your online findings .. fascinating, intriguing but ultimately fruitless.
There really is no better way than to do what you have just done .. go and see for yourself.

Thank you. Yes, we said that about our house in Bédoin, then life changed things. We were fairly sure our time back in the U.S. would not be a permanent thing - and it wasn't. Hoping this time our plans will work for us.

Thank you Sue. Yes, it has been an interesting journey. We were not sure how we would feel about the location/region, but we really loved it.

We added 2000kms to the car driving all over the place.
