What advice to expats in Saint-Malo have about housing?

Answer this Question

When we asked people living in Saint-Malo about the social scene there, they described it saying...

"Expats in Saint-Malo advise that it's important to start your housing search early, as the market can be competitive, especially during the summer months when tourists flock to the area. They recommend using local real estate agents who are familiar with the area and can help navigate the local market. Expats also suggest considering the location of the property in relation to amenities such as shops, schools, and public transportation. Properties in the city center tend to be more expensive, but they offer the convenience of being close to everything. Renting before buying is another common advice, as it allows you to get a feel for the area and understand the local property market better. Expats also advise to be aware of additional costs such as property taxes, maintenance fees, and utility bills when budgeting for housing. Lastly, they recommend learning some basic French or hiring a translator when dealing with property matters, as not all landlords or real estate agents may speak English," said a member in Saint-Malo, France.
