Why Bordeaux?
Bordeaux is one of France's most attractive cities for international professionals, students and families.
Located in south-western France, Bordeaux combines:
-
A dynamic economy
-
International companies
-
Prestigious universities and schools
-
Excellent quality of life
-
Historic architecture
-
Cultural and gastronomic attractions
-
Easy access to the Atlantic coast
-
A major international airport
-
High-speed rail connections to Paris
-
A wide range of neighbourhoods and lifestyles
But choosing the right area is essential.
The best neighbourhood for a young professional may not be the best choice for a family with children.
That's why our local expertise is particularly valuable for international clients.
Where Should You Live in Bordeaux?
We help you identify the neighbourhood that best matches your lifestyle and professional requirements.

Ideal for clients looking for a central lifestyle, restaurants, shops, cultural attractions and easy access to public transport.

Les Chartrons
A highly sought-after neighbourhood combining historic Bordeaux architecture, cafés, restaurants, shops and a lively atmosphere.
A popular choice for professionals and international residents.

Bordeaux Bastide
Located on the right bank of the Garonne, Bastide offers a residential environment with good access to the city centre.
Talence
A particularly relevant area for students and academics, thanks to its proximity to the University of Bordeaux and other higher education institutions.

A Premium Rental Search Service for Expats
The Bordeaux rental market rewards speed, preparation and local knowledge.
When a desirable property becomes available, you may have only a short window to act.
Searching alone from another country can therefore be extremely difficult.
Our role is to save you time and improve your chances of securing the right property.
More than 500 homes found
Our experience comes from hundreds of successful rental property searches.
Average search time of less than 20 days
Every search is different and results depend on your criteria, budget and market conditions. Our active approach is designed to maximise efficiency.
Personalised service
Your search is built around your specific requirements.
Local expertise
We know Bordeaux, its neighbourhoods, its rental market and its professional property network.
Remote solutions
Where possible, we can organise the search and property viewings remotely.
A dedicated team
You have a professional team supporting you throughout your relocation.
We Understand the Challenges of Renting in France
For international clients, the French rental process can sometimes appear complicated.
The documentation, guarantees and administrative requirements may be unfamiliar.
Depending on your circumstances, landlords or agencies may request documents such as:
-
Identification
-
Employment contract
-
Proof of income
-
Tax documents
-
Proof of address
-
Employer information
-
Guarantor documentation
-
Other supporting documents
We help you understand what is required and prepare your application as effectively as possible.
A strong application can make a real difference.
Our role is not to guarantee acceptance of an application — the final decision always belongs to the landlord or property manager — but to help you present a complete and coherent rental file.

Relocating to Bordeaux With Your Family?
Finding a family home abroad requires a different approach.

We can help you compare different areas according to your priorities.
For example:
Where will you work?
Where will your children go to school?
How long do you want your daily commute to be?
Do you need public transport?
Would you prefer the city centre or a quieter residential area?
Do you need a garden or additional bedrooms?
These questions help us build a much more relevant property search.

Limited time in Bordeaux

Family logistics to organise
-
A rental property to secure
