Re: What made you smile today?
Thank you, both of you.
I’m still in contact with my childhood friends. So it wouldn’t be a new start but more a “going home” dream. No rose tinted glasses.
That being said I don’t have a clue about the legalities of purchasing property and would need to research that part like crazy.

There's not much to worry about if you can be cash buyers. We bought the house in Normandy, where we are right now, in 2007 when we were still living in Canada. We raised the cash by taking out a line of credit with TD secured against a portion of the equity in our Richmond Hill house, so as far as the French end was concerned, cash buyers. I suspect trying to get a mortgage from a French lender as non-residents would be tricky but others may have done it.

Who said all is well with France? After all the Notre Dame images seen everywhere in the media recently, this made me smile then grimace on reflection of the current social situation.
