As a first time buyer in France, I found Ryan Green Properties to be a great help not only with recommendations of carefully selected and appropriate properties but also guiding me through the complete purchase process - and most of this was achieved ‘long distance’ since at the time I was living in the Far East! In addition to always being professional and responsive, I found Ryan to have a very comprehensive knowledge of the local area and property market which enabled him to provide objective and sound advice. I am very pleased with the chalet that I purchased with the guidance of Ryan and would certainly recommend his services to others.
Ryan takes time to get to know his clients and personalise his service according to their needs. He quickly understood what I was looking for and almost immediately presented me with a great renovation opportunity in a wonderful secluded location of The French Alps, yet within reach of the main road even in the heaviest weather conditions. To his credit, he discouraged me from pursuing a more expensive property which I initially contacted him about. He knows the market very well, is held in high regard in the local community and offers a far more proactive, dynamic and efficient service than the rather lacklustre local agents. I think he got me a better deal than I would have got elsewhere, after all the costs. Ryan also introduced me to a good notary, a superb architect to oversee my renovation project and we have kept in touch since.
We absolutely love our new house in the wine village of Rasteau in Provence and have managed to visit each month for about a week. Each time we don’t want to come home! We are getting to know the neighbours and our French is slowly improving. Do keep in touch and thanks again for finding us our lovely home.
Great service from A-Z. Found exactly the property we were looking for. We completed it quickly and smoothly. A big thank you to Ryan Green Properties for supporting us all the way. Highly recommended for a hassle free experience.
Ryan Green Properties was indispensable in helping us buy a property in France. Even as a French speaker, the process can be quite complex and daunting. Not only did we find our dream home in just one month, but we did it with someone we felt we could genuinely trust to advise us in our purchase. Highly recommended!
We decided to use Ryan Green Properties as it is very difficult to navigate the French property market - as properties are listed with multiple agencies and there is no aggregated site. Going through the various sites is incredibly difficult and there are no locations given for places, making it even more difficult to locate suitable homes. Ryan made the whole experience so easy - identifying appropriate villas and arranging all viewings. He managed the negotiations for us and ultimately made our dream of buying a property in Arcachon come true. I could not recommend him more highly and I'm certain I would still be browsing property sites if he hadn't been involved.
Ryan is a trustworthy property professional and was indispensable in finding, negotiating, and closing on our estate in Saint Remy de Provence. I'm certain without him we would have given up altogether. I would recommend Ryan to anyone serious about finding and buying a home in The South of France
Securing a place overseas and a mortgage can be extremely stressful and daunting within your own country, let alone securing a place abroad. Ryan and the team at Ryan Green Properties provided me a phenomenal service, helping me buy property in Chamonix; over and above what you would expect from an agent. And were even there for me after the sale had gone through.
Simply brilliant! - only showed me properties in The French Alps relevant to my criteria and made the whole purchasing process so easy. Highly recommended.
From viewing to purchasing, setting us up in France with bank, solicitors, utilities etc Ryan Green Properties have been excellent. Friendly, helpful and trustworthy - would recommend!
A stress-free purchase and professional advice. Ryan Green Properties shortlisted a number of homes for us and found exactly what we were looking for, helping with local advice and services. Great team. would recommend it.
Extremely accommodating, with excellent local knowledge. I would recommend their property finding services to anyone looking to buy a property in Spain.
Ryan Green Properties provided an excellent service when we were seeking a property near Megeve in The French Alps. Having contacted a number of other agents, with disappointing results, we were pleasantly surprised by the professional approach that was taken and it was clear that we were more than just another enquiry to them. Ryan spent a few full days viewing properties in a range of locations, with plenty of local knowledge shared to inform our decision. All throughout the offer and purchase process we were well supported and the after sales service was also excellent. We would highly recommend anyone looking to buy a property in France to contact them.
From the moment we met Ryan at Buyer’s Agent France, he went out of his way to find out exactly what we were looking for. He was very patient with us despite all our silly questions and then spent a day viewing properties. His professional and personal approach filled us with great confidence. Despite not being the selling agent for our property, he acted on our behalf as an intermediary. We are now enjoying our first holiday in our Praz sur Arly apartment near Megeve and could not be happier. He also introduced us to a great notaire in Sallanches. We are so fortunate to have stepped into his office! To find our dream home in The French Alps!
Ryan is a pleasure to deal with. He is professional, knowledgeable, connected in the local area, and selfless in identifying hidden gems of properties. He goes the extra mile in getting property details, doing all the checks and balances, and quietly and efficiently getting the deal to completion. And most importantly he takes joy in doing it. I would not hesitate using Ryan Green Properties’ house hunting services again or recommending them to my friends.
Having spent many years searching independently for a property in France we came across Ryan Green Properties and never looked back. Ryan took our requirements and built a weekend of property viewings that surpassed our expectations, resulting in us buying our beautiful farm house in Provence Alpes Cote d'Azur region. Many thanks Ryan we couldn't have done it without you.
We engaged Ryan to purchase a chalet in the Megeve area of The French Alps. We explained what type of property we were looking for by email/telephone as we live in England. We found Ryan to be both enthusiastic and efficient in finding the correct types of properties. As known-French speaking, he did all the negotiations for us. We have no hesitation in recommending him and his services.
Sian and I remain indebted to you for your guidance and support during the purchase of our chalet in The Chamonix Mont Blanc Valley - from the outset we felt reassured that you would broker a deal that felt right for everyone and stick with us while we navigated a transaction in a foreign territory. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend your services to friends or further afield and would be more than happy to speak directly with anyone seeking further assurance.
When I first contacted Ryan Green Properties I was on the verge of giving up on trying to find a home in France. Ryan went through my spec in detail and took our needs into careful consideration. He understood exactly what we were looking for, and we found a match on the very first viewing! We're now the proud owners of a property in France. Thank you for all your help.
Recently we acquired a charming village house for our family in the centre of Bidart, near Biarritz, on the Basque Coast. Such a decision is not only a matter of money and value but first and foremost a matter of trust - especially as the entire process had to be managed from abroad as we live in Vienna, Austria. Through facilitating an individual decision making process Ryan provided a tailor made solution in accordance with all our personal preferences! In addition to that we experienced his reliable and proactive support throughout the legal and financial procedures! We are still in good contact with Ryan and would always come back to him for any kind of real estate solutions!
We highly recommend Ryan at Buyer's Agent France, to anyone looking to buy a property in The French Alps. His extensive knowledge of the market is backed up with a strong understanding of the relevant regulation. Ryan is proactive in approach and has excellent communication skills, meaning we felt fully informed and comfortable throughout the process when buying our home near Megeve in Haute Savoie.
