We currently have 34 plots of land for sale in the Haute Savoie. Thanks to this we are recieving lots of questions about how to go about a new build project. Normally my answer is to speak to one of our experienced agents, most of whom have been involoved with new build projects in France for some time.
I have decided to do some research into the whole subject and write a 7 part blog following a current new build near Morzine. It helps that this is being undertaken by Alew Lewis (the Marketing Man). Alex and his Father-in-Law (Steve Norris, the MD) have been going through the process meticulously, leaving a well documented paper trail to help with the research.
If you want to keep abreast of the build process then I suggest registering your details with us via the little form on the right of this page. I intend to have part 1 and 2 written by the end of this week.
Part 2. Asking for planning permission
Part 3. Getting the constructions quotes.
Part 4. The build, from digging the first hole to the finished concrete structure.
Part 5. Adding the wooden frame, walls, roof, windows and doors – Hors d’eau – hors d’air.
Part 6. Finishing the inside, electrics, heating, kitchens etc….
Part 7. Landscaping and obtaining the Certificat de Conformité.
I have some examples of plots below:
