Property Management Services
Caring for your Home on the French Riviera
Côte d’Azur Villas offers the full range of property management services to help you take care of your home in the South of France. We have a team of friendly bilingual staff with years of experience in looking after homes on behalf of owners who live abroad. Our staff includes a handyman, a housekeeper, an accountant, an insurance expert, and an English chartered surveyor. We have extensive contacts with local tradesmen and artisans, many who speak English, who offer services form painting a room to building a new extension.
"Does anyone know a good plumber ?"
It’s a question we get asked time and time again. Searching the "pages jaunes" for a good contractor is a lottery, let alone explaining in your best restaurant French that there’s a leak in the cupboard under the kitchen sink and what time could someone come and look at it ? At Cote d’Azur Villas, our Property Management team have access to a host of reliable, well-priced and reputable local contractors, suppliers and tradesmen who are usually available at short notice, ensuring that your property is not put at risk by unscrupulous or unreliable workmen. All our contractors are regularly vetted to ensure we are providing the very best quality of workmanship, and are able to collect keys directly from our office in Valbonne avoiding the need for someone to wait at the property. We are on call at all times to ensure emergencies do not turn into disasters.
