Buying property in Paris (and France, in general) isn't easy.  Aside from the dreaded French admin, there is a whole world of traps and tricks to consider. Omissions in the property listing, negotiating prices, and why you shouldn't share a notary with the seller.... This week, lawyer and buyer's agent Christine Bacoup-Tidas explains some of the key pitfalls to avoid in the process. She also chats about property in Paris in general, and her previous life as a ballet dancer and then lawter in New York City.  Find her and her website Tomette Paris here to get help buying your own place: www.tometteparis.com *********** The Earful Tower exists thanks to support from its Patreon members.
