The purchase price is only the starting point.

A property might be within budget....... but is the finished property?

When looking at a renovation project, it’s worth considering the purchase price and what it will realistically cost to get the property where you want it to be.

Not everything needs doing immediately, but knowing what you're likely to face over the next few years can make a huge difference when deciding whether a property is right for you.

The real budget isn't just what you pay for the house.

Sometimes you walk into a property and immediately see the potential.

You notice the view, the space, the old beams and character, and before you know it, you're mentally moving walls and planning bathrooms.

The less exciting bit is working out whether those plans are actually feasible and what they're realistically likely to cost.

That's what I help buyers understand through Renov'Assist by SR - before they commit to a French property and discover their plans and their budget don't quite match.

28/08/2026

When you buy a property to renovate in France, it’s very easy to look around and see EVERYTHING as a job that needs doing.

But it doesn't all need doing straight away.

Some things need immediate attention, some need to be factored into your future budget, and others can quite happily wait.

Part of what I do through Renov'Assist is help buyers understand those priorities, so they can make decisions based on what a property actually needs, rather than feeling overwhelmed by everything they could change.

Priorities first. Pretty bits later.

26/08/2026

The pretty bits are easy to fall in love with. 🏡

But what about the things that aren't quite so obvious?

The roof. Electrics. Heating. Drainage. Sanitation. Structure.

They might not be the exciting part of buying a French property, but they can make a big difference to your renovation budget.

Fall in love with the house. Just know what you're buying.

Renov'Assist by SR provides independent renovation cost & feasibility advice for buyers of French property.

07/08/2026

Buying an old French property can be exciting but before making an offer, it’s worth looking beyond the purchase price.

What really needs doing? What can wait? And, most importantly, what is it realistically going to cost?

A renovation doesn’t need to be frightening, you just need to know what you’re taking on.

Renov'Assist provides independent renovation cost and feasibility advice for buyers of French property.

Why I Created Renov'Assist

Over the years, I've lost count of the number of people who've asked if I'd be willing to walk around a property with them before they buy it and give my opinion on the renovation side of things.

So, I decided to make it an official service.

As a second-generation carpenter and builder with over 33 years' hands-on experience renovating everything from listed cottages and manor houses to châteaux, I know the kinds of issues that can easily be overlooked when you're excited about finding your dream property.

The idea is simple. We walk around the property together, discuss your plans, I'll highlight any obvious concerns, talk through what's realistically involved, and answer any questions you have.

There's no sales pitch and no obligation to use us for any renovation work afterwards. It's simply practical, independent advice to help you make an informed decision before committing to such a significant purchase.

I also believe it's a valuable service for estate agents whose clients would appreciate a little extra reassurance before taking the next step.

If you think Renov'Assist could help you, or you know someone who's currently looking to buy in France, I'd love to hear from you. Email:[email protected]

Pre-purchase renovation consultations from €250 per visit.

Buyer Tips for Renovation Projects in France!

If you’re considering buying a renovation property in France, here are a few things worth thinking about before committing:

• Always budget for more than just the visible works. Roofs, electrics, insulation and drainage can quickly change the overall cost once work begins.

• Don’t underestimate timelines. A full renovation is rarely a quick project, especially once planning, permissions and artisan availability are factored in.

• Try to understand whether the property will require structural work or planning approvals before purchase.

• Obtain realistic renovation advice early, ideally before making an offer, not afterwards.

• Keep a contingency budget aside. Older French properties nearly always reveal surprises once opened up.

• Be cautious of relying on UK renovation pricing or DIY television programmes as a comparison. Renovation costs, regulations and labour structures in France can be very different.

• Consider how much project management will realistically be needed, particularly if you are renovating from abroad.

We recently helped a client assess a property before purchase, and the reality of the project ended up being very different from their original expectations once the likely costs and timescales were properly broken down.

12/05/2026

Character is often what makes people fall in love with French property.

Original cupboards, old timber, worn stone floors, shutters and details that simply can’t be recreated easily today all add to the charm and story of a home.

But older properties can also come with hidden work behind the scenes, which is why understanding the full scope of a renovation before committing is so important.

We regularly help buyers assess renovation projects before purchase, giving realistic guidance on likely costs, timelines and what may need attention once works begin.

Sometimes the biggest surprises are the things you can’t immediately see.

03/05/2026

Renovating a property in France is a big commitment, and the reality is often very different from what buyers expect at the point of purchase.

For a typical 100m² full renovation, budgets now commonly fall between €150,000 and €250,000 when using qualified artisans, with timelines often reaching up to 18 months once planning and preparation are included.

These are not worst case figures, they are realistic ones based on how projects actually unfold.

One of the most common things we see is buyers underestimating both the cost and the time involved, which can lead to difficult decisions once work is underway.

We help clients understand the true scope of a renovation before they commit, so there are fewer surprises down the line and better decisions from the start.

We’ve created a more detailed renovation guide based on real projects in France.
