You should never invest in the forex and stock market without professional guidance. Most failures and losses on investments usually happen when you invest without proper guide, help and clear analysis of the profit and risk percentage of the investment. You need a professional to guide you through the process.
Kayla Tabitha Rodrigues is the best forex broker I know. She has gone through multiple cycles of the economy. Her expertise has greatly helped my success in forex and stock market trading. For the past two years, she has helped me grow my portfolio using her broad and competent knowledge of the financial market.
@@carlos1brown316Wow, I thought I was the only one who knew Kayla .T. Rodrigues. Her techniques are quite exceptional, I had the privilege of meeting her at a summit in Singapore. It feels really good to see you talking about her.
I completely agree with Béziers as #1. It’s so amazing. A beautiful and recently renovated central square, a charming old town, markets almost every day, dynamic light and fountain shows, close to the sea, in the middle of the largest wine growing region in the world. Fantastic value.
I love to see Béziers at #1, my wife was born there and we visit family all the time since we are living in Montpellier. Very underrated city, very nice people, the beaches are white sand and large and it's sunny 300 days per year. Living on this region is awesome.
For those of us in the US, a square meter is roughly 10 square feet. A Euro is roughly .9 to 1. So $5,000 eu for a square meter is about $550 us dollars a square foot. Not cheap, but not as expensive as NY, Miami, LA, etc.
800-1500 euros per square meter, 3 km from the Mediterranean sea, and all facilities by foot, from highschool to railway station and hospital. Can you spot it ? 😊 Hope you can't 😂
I cycled through France eight years ago and loved every minute of it . I’m Australian and if the visa thing wasn’t an issue I’d move there in a heartbeat , Brittany would be where I’d be looking as close to St Malo as l could afford.
St Malo is incredible. My main culinary instructor was in S Malo many moons ago training. I'm Nova Scotia, or should I say. Nouvelle Ecosse, Canada! and many Acadians from here can trace their ancestry there.
Very interesting list. I sadly had to sell my house that I owned for 12 years, in Lot et Garonne (between Marmande and Bergerac) last year due to a divorce. But, I miss France and was recently at a car event in Angouleme. I’m surprised that nowhere in the Charente area got a mention in the list e.g. Cognac? I keep looking online with a view to buying something again…almost at all those places you mentioned. I think Colmar and Mulhouse are relatively more expensive than they otherwise would be simply by virtue of being so close to Germany as well. My Mother lives nearby in Germany and prices are SO much higher that some Germans actually elect to buy there and commute to work in Germany. I think the potential downside to those places is that the weather is not always so good compared to other places in France. In my opinion, the actual city of Bergerac is overrated. Spend a day there and you’ve pretty seen everything worth seeing. It’s is the surrounding countryside that makes it a good area. Thanks for the good video.
Interesting insight, and having traveled all over France I've been in each of these regions and most cities. I know it's subjective, but the only area I'd say is grossly overrated is the Dordogne. Yes, Périgueux, Sarlat, Domme, etc are beautiful, but they're also dreadfully boring. Part of the reason I want to live in France is the culture, and you might as well be in the UK or USA. Plus, how much foie gras can a person consume, lol! I'm glad I visited the region, but a few days was enough for me and I couldn't wait to leave. BTW, I'd add Dijon to the list. You can get a beautiful apartment there at a reasonable price and be 90 min from Paris.
I would have liked to see some of the smaller villages listed near toulouse maybe, there are wonderful small villages like revel and labecede laragais that are old cathar villages with lots of charm and history,,,
This is a great list! I like your criteria and it's exactly the information I need. I'm retired and moving to the south of France. I have been trying to find the areas where I can afford to buy but have the cultural sites, airport, railway, and are not far from the Mediterranean. Thank you!
The video is more about a good value lifestyle purchase in France. Due to high taxes and a very pro tennat market France is not a real estate opportunity.
I’m an American living in Rivesaltes just north of Perpignan for the last two years. We are generally very happy here, and the people are very nice and it’s a calm and stress-free life. I have my own craft business, so I’m OK with work. The wind is a bit annoying at times, but it is what it is. I just wish there were more golf courses 😂
What a beautiful list of cities! I love how many different options there are in terms of cultures. So many different options due to the amount of borders France has
I watch some of your videos and iam from Béziers. Your analysis of the city is right. For a long time Béziers was a well kept secret ... When people asked if Béziers is good they reply that Narbonne is better lol ... (That a nice city too) ... Then people from Montpellier discovered and invest there, then people from the rest of France especially when the mediatic mayor was elected begin to discover it. It is still off the radar because it is less than 200.000 habitants so for example it Iis not ranked on numbeo cost of living comparaison. In 2023 price to buy begin to decrease but i think less than others places because it is still the most affordable city close to the sea with an excellent climate. Today is sunny a bit windy and 19 C. Price 10 years ago was much more cheap (less than 1500 euros per M2).
Thanks for the overview and your insightful comments regarding town history, populatiom, demographics, travel, costs and sights. Just started looking to retire...
I would have liked to see some options in the southeast, preferably within an easy drive of Aix-en-Provence, but I realize that it might have to be a village rather than a city.
Very original and interesting choices. But why don't you show the position on a map and say how close to the seaside most of those cities are ? You only said it about Béziers.
Astonishing list, mai I say. Kudos especially for including St-Etienne to the list. Je suis stéphanois moi-même ⚽🏆 one question though : does bying a property worth 1 million euros grant a NON-EU national a permanent residency in France and thanks masses in advance.
@@saveandinvestwithgiorgiolo8375 Thanks for the informative reply, albeit a bit negative regarding my question. All the very best for your exquisite Channel :)
Price down in Paris has started like you mentioned due to the difficulty of getting the loan and DPE. How do you see? as the opportunity to invest or still the risk?
There is a reason why some places are cheap in France: no work to be found, poor transports, infrastructure and lack of medical facilities, shops, etc. I would not advise investing in real estate in France unless you are planning to live there eventually. Also, check crime statistics and related information before you jump in. You would not believe how some cities have evolved in this regard in the last few years. Also, don't count on regular flights in the small airports: Beziers to Edinburgh? You have to be kidding. They barely fly from Toulouse or Nantes to Edinburgh (only in summer), let alone Bezier to Edinburgh unless you are planning to charter a plane yourself.
Correct. And because everyone has something to say and everyone feels like they can do whatever they want, if you buy a property with a yard or parcels: expect trespass with people asking you a million questions.
Pau was quite famous in the US at one time, because Abraham Lincoln’s wife was treated there for a few years after the death of a son and the assassination of her husband. She never recovered her sanity and eventually she returned to the US.
be careful with the real estate theory in this video, if the prices in most of the cities mentioned are so low it is because activity has declined and delinquency and insecurity have increased significantly. there is of course the architecture that remains and the services that work more or less well but to live there it is not these cities that I would recommend
I’m looking into naucelles - I’m Canadian but my partner is french and we are thinking of of purchasing ( not anytime soon) in that area. Are there agents that you can recommend ?
I just returned from a classic car event in Angouleme and have previously been to a Blues music festival In Cognac. Both worth seriously considering. I had a house in Lot et Garonne for 12 years. Also a good area.

US cities will cost you x5 as much , 375K to 600K , taxes 12K-20K+++ a year. Our salaries probably higher , but health insurance is approx 1k a month.
