French property is a place in the sun

"A Place in the Sun" Magazine published by Brooklands Media Group features France in its August edition reporting on the house price rises in Languedoc-Roussillon. It reveals that prices in Perpignan rose by 10% between January and March 2007. The region has consistently been an attractive place to buy property for overseas investors. Languedoc-Roussillons capital Montpellier benefits from a slower pace of life, stunning architecture and has been booming. It has the honour of being voted France's most popular city to live in - thanks to its beautiful and relaxed 'Centre Historique' centre, chic shops and close proximity to the beach.
