Renting in France?
Let’s get your application ready.

I help you understand what a landlord or agency asks for, organise documents from abroad and prepare a clear application in French.

What I can help with

Make the paperwork easier to present.

We agree the scope before I start. Your application can be prepared even if your current documents are from outside France.

01

Understand the requested documents

I’ll compare the landlord’s or agency’s request with the official list of permitted supporting documents and explain in English what each item means. If your documents are from abroad, I’ll help you present your actual situation clearly.

02

Organise the file

I’ll put the documents you provide in a clear order and flag anything missing or unclear. You check the contents before sharing anything.

03

Present your application in French

I’ll draft a short factual introduction for the landlord or agency, including an explanation of relevant documents from abroad. You review and approve the wording before sending it.

04

Handle document requests

I can explain follow-up requests from an agency or landlord and draft factual replies in French for you to approve and send.

Every file is different, especially when documents come from abroad or a partner or guarantor is involved.

Fixed quote

Tell me who is applying and what documents you have. I’ll set out the file preparation, French wording and any follow-up included in your quote.

You know the full price before work starts. If you also need help finding a property or contacting landlords, tell me so I can assess that request separately.

How it works

From your documents to a clear next step.

01

Describe your application

Tell me who will apply and what the agency or landlord has asked for. We can start without sensitive documents.

02

Agree the work and price

I’ll send a written quote for the file preparation and any agreed follow-up. You know the scope and total price before you commit.

03

Prepare and review

I carry out the agreed work and explain it in English. You review the file and decide when and with whom to share it.

Your application, your choice

Who does what?

I prepare the administrative file and factual French wording agreed in the quote. You review and approve anything submitted in your name.

If you need support beyond the paperwork, tell me. Searching for properties, acting on your behalf with landlords or negotiating a lease may require a licensed real estate professional, so we would scope that separately. The landlord or agency decides whether to accept an application.

Good to know

Common questions.

I do not have French payslips or a French tax notice. Can you still help?

Yes. Tell me which genuine documents you have and I’ll help you understand the French application requirements and present your situation accurately. The landlord or agency decides whether to accept an application.

Do I need to use DossierFacile?

No. DossierFacile is a free public option for preparing and sharing a rental file. If you choose it, I can help you understand the steps while you keep control of your account and documents.

Can you also help me find a property or contact landlords?

Tell me what you need. This page covers application paperwork, but I can discuss a broader request with you. Property search, contacting landlords on your behalf or negotiating a lease may need to be handled through a licensed real estate professional. I’ll clarify what is possible before quoting.

Will a prepared file guarantee that I get the rental?

No. I can help give your application its best chance by putting together a complete, accurate file and explaining your situation clearly in French. The landlord or agency still makes the final decision.
