French Property Shining helps people who dream of a life in France or the purchase of a second home. Emigrating or investing abroad is exciting and often complex. We believe the difference lies in a partner who speaks the language, knows the culture and understands the process.

André Bouwkamp

Buying a house in France is never just a purchase.
It’s a choice for a different kind of life.

That’s why my work is not about bricks or paperwork, but about direction, calm and certainty

I am a licensed estate agent in France. My licence number is: CPI47032026000000003

I am an entrepreneur myself and I have years of experience guiding people who are buying property and building a life in France — from private homes to gîtes, from small farms to local businesses.

I understand the questions, the doubts, and the moments when everything feels uncertain.
And I know how important it is to have someone beside you who understands the process, sees the pitfalls, and helps you make clear and confident decisions.

I guide you step-by-step — practical, personal, and at your own pace.
With attention for both the numbers and the feeling.

So that, in the end, you can say:

“Yes. This feels right. This is the place. This is the moment.”
