Great Idea No. 1 – “Anglo-Phone”

If you’re searching for property in your home country, then you (usually!) speak and understand the language pretty darn well, and it’s natural for you to pick up the phone, call the advertiser to ask for a few more details, confirm a bit of information or to schedule a visit. You’re pretty comfortable doing that.

Now, imagine that the property you are interested in is in another country and you don’t speak the language. What do you do? Simple: just use a website or a company that speaks your language, right?

That’s great. In fact, all the pros recommend that you make sure you completely understand all conversations and stages of your overseas property transaction and seek assistance if necessary. However, in doing that, are you actually limiting your choice of property down to only those represented by people who speak your language?

In France today, there are over a million different properties available on the largest French property website. The majority of them aren’t normally advertised on overseas property sites that you may be using and you may have to get on a plane and pound the French pavements to find them. Even if they are advertised on sites written in English, non-French speakers may struggle getting “discovery” questions answered the way they would easily do it themselves at home.

Enter Breeze’s FREE Anglo-Phone service – our Great Idea No. 1.

Anglo-Phone is your free-to-use bilingual assistant. You can easily contact Breeze advertisers to ask early questions or arrange a viewing. Sure, use translators or specialist professionals to help you through the process later, when you’re ready, but don’t limit your choice of property now.

Early on, when you just need to know if the spare room is big enough to hold your collection of antique handbags, or if you’ll be able to walk comfortably to the shops without having to wear hiking boots and an oxygen mask, then the native English speakers at Anglo-Phone can help you avoid costly and time-wasting visits – for free.

You’ll save long distance charges too. From the UK and Northern Ireland, your call only costs 3p per minute. We’re working on deals with other telecom providers to get cheap calls from everywhere else too. Plus (as if that’s not enough already!), the Anglo-Phone lines are open 7 days a week, from 8am to 10pm GMT – when you’re most likely to be surfing the net.
