Thank you Stephanie for making it happen!

Created: Tuesday, 07 June 2022 Written by Stewart and Rebekah Craig

We recently purchased a property in the Charente with the assistance of Stephanie Bessant. As remote purchasers, Stephanie provided us with virtual and in person property tours until we found the right one. She guided us through the French purchasing process along with providing support to establish our new dream holiday home. Throughout the process she was professional and attentive, and we can’t thank her enough and would highly recommend her.
