Reviews

In France it may take a long time and many visits until your find a property that fulfils your criteria. Azurcasa made an excellent selection, arranged well planned accompanied visits and gave me useful information about the properties and the surroundings. I also received professional advice concerning signing of the pre- and final purchase agreement. I can highly recommend Azurcasa services.

The staff of Azurcasa have provided me with excellent service, in sourcing the right apartment in Antibes, then assisting with the purchase procedures and also the utilities. They have effectively and competently also managed finding tenants on my behalf. I can strongly recommend their services.
