All real estate contracts and agreements must be drafted in French in order to be valid under French law. The use of a foreign language is illegal. Some notaries with an international practice may translate the agreements for their clients, usually for an additional fee. Or, you can hire an attorney or translation service to provide a translation for you. Flat Hunter® partners with English speaking notaires who can review the contracts in English at the time of the signings, so that you are fully aware of your rights and obligations. In addition, if you choose your Flat Hunter® expert will accompany you to the signing and can also help you understand your rights and conditions at the signing.
