Aix en Provence in the spring or fall, fingers crossed.
Complication of NEEDING to sell our current home to make it possible...and then needing a temp place here for me and my wife, and Luna the cat.
We plan on an initial 30 day stay at a nearby gite, or AB&B, then a year long apartment rental somewhere near the center of Aix, 15-20 min walk maximum.
The advice/info/encouragement 😁 I am looking for is about how to actually find an apartment.
I see absolutely nice apartments on Seloger all the time, but as I understand it. We should definitely use an agent to handle the transaction for us (we are 100% French real estate noobs).
The problem is the apartments are being offered by many "different" agents...so do you have to pay each separate agency to just SEE one of their listings?
Any info regarding this would be greatly appreciated, and we'll owe you an apéro when we get there.
