International clients
I assist international clients — new residents, expatriates and investors — with their real-estate matters in France. Whether in real estate, construction or co-ownership matters, I provide clear and accessible legal support in French, English and Russian to help you move forward with confidence.
- Review and clarification of residential lease agreements (furnished, unfurnished, mobility lease, secondary residence, etc.) and explanation of tenant rights and obligations in France;
- Legal guidance on short-term or seasonal rentals (Airbnb-type arrangements) and related compliance issues;
- Assistance throughout property acquisitions — understanding the purchase process, reviewing preliminary contracts (promesse, compromis), and liaising with notaries;
- Support for landlords preparing to rent out a property: explanation of lessor rights and obligations, selection of the appropriate lease type, and key points to consider when drafting or signing a lease;
- Clarification of practical aspects related to property transactions (procedural steps, standard taxes and fees, public pre-emption rights, mandatory diagnostics), with referral to qualified tax professionals when required.
