Unfortunately I've had a bad experience with this company. It appears to be run by a Mr & Mrs David and Sharon Evans who apparently employ a team of agents in France who source French properties from local immobiliers and advertise them on Mr & Mrs Evans' British Cle France website.Cle France therefore appears to be a go-between or middle-man operation between the French selling agent and the UK buyer.My requests for further information about a few properties advertised in the UK through Cle France have unfortunately met with an unhelpful response from Mrs Evans, with abrupt and dismissive excuses given for not providing requested further information.I've found that if a property advertised by Cle France looks appealing it's better to do some online research and find the local immobilier actually selling the property and deal with them direct, rather than try to deal with Sharon Evans' Cle France.

A brilliant experience all the way from the beginning to the end. Would absolutely recommend 1000 times over.

We have sent quite a lot of web enquiries to most of the leading advertisers with regard to French properties. Sharon and the team at Cle France have been exceptional, by far the best. Responding quickly and keeping us up to date on the French housing market.So "leg it" over to Cle France if you want to find your perfect French property.

Sharon was amazing at searching for, and emailing us some pretty close options to match our criteria. We didn't end up buying this time but she really went above and beyond to help, thanks Sharon!

A very professional service.Good communication.The meeting we arranged in France with Francoise worked out perfectly and the properties we viewed were just as described.The viewings we managed well and Francoise did a great job.I would happily recommend Cle France.

I first came across Cle France some months ago. What an Agency! They really are special - interested in what you require, knowledgeable, patient and keep in touch with you. Super people to deal with and Sharon is definitely the 'go to' person.

Very efficient and very honest. When I enquired about a property, they gave excellent advice about the property and the fors and againsts a purchase. They replied quickly to our messages. I would definitely use them again.

Sharon at Cle France was by far the most helpful and responsive of all the agents that we contacted when looking to view houses in France. Would highly recommend.

Great support and honest advice every step of our journey to purchasing our little French dream. Took a genuine interest and we felt we had someone in our corner. Would wholeheartedly recommend Clé France.

Extremely poor service. Sharon, so called founder, refused to answer any questions about enquired property.Enquired about property in France. Received an email back promissing that they will find out information asked and come back to me. Then referred to hire a third party man to get photos and information about the house, when it is an agencies job to answer all questions and provide with support to potential buyers. Sharon's refused to answer any of my original simple questions about the property when I said that there is no need in third party when simple questions can be answered by the agency, yet Sharon insisted that she knows better, that I have to view the property to get to know the property. Da!But, how can interested person to even want to view the property if the agency, who charges fees for their service which incl in the cost of the house, refuses to answer simple questions, which is their job to do?! After my emlast email insisting in getting my questions answered Sharon had nothing better to do than ask me not to contact their company or use their services. So mature!Sharon herself seems to forget that her business is here to provide a service, serve people , not to decide what interested buyers should or should not do.If you do not provide service your business is set to provide, then it is not a business.Do not use this company.

I have been dealing with Cle France online and in emails for years and have found them very helpful in finding me my place in France, I couldn't recommend them highly enough. ?

I made an enquiry today on a 200k house in France, this was the replyHouses are selling fast at the moment, often before clients arrive, so unless you are planning to travel to view and need to make appointments to view, we cannot currently address enquiries of a generalised nature about individual propertiesI will go elsewhere ....

I highly recommend Clé France. We bought a house in Normandy during one of the most difficult times and they took us through the process, liaised with the local agents and made sure we were aware of all the pitfalls. They have a network of service providers and we really took advantage of that. All I can add is that Sharon has incredible patience as she managed to put up with my absolute lack of patience!

If it hadn't been for Sharon at Cle France, we would probably both be locked away by now. Whilst all around us proved that a title doesn't mean they can do the job, Sharon remained professional, helpful and a calming voice amongst the babbling of imbeciles.Thank you Sharon.

We had never bought property abroad before and it has all turned out to be a lot easier than expected - thanks to Cle France. Ian and I just cannot thank Sharon and her team enough. They have been brilliant!
