Buying a gite business in France
Potential buyers should ask themselves a lot more questions than if they were just buying a holiday home in France.
Like:
* Do I want to make a living out of gîte rental?
* Is my move to France dependent on rental income from a gîte?
* Will I be keeping my job in my home country and commuting?
* Is my idea rather to have a holiday home that I can rent out in the off-season to cover costs?
* Do I have an area, a region or even a village in mind?
* Am I looking for finished gîtes or big rambling places with lots of potential for gîte development?
* Am I a handywoman or will I have to buy in repair & maintenance services?
* Is my French up to living in France and running a business?
* Would I not be better off in Spain, Portugal or Bulgaria?
Running a gite entails a lot of preparatory work pre-season, intensive weekend work throughout the season and then a period of general fixing and repairing after the season.
