Whether you are golf enthusiasts, nature lovers or seasoned real estate investors, buying near a golf course offers many advantages in France and internationally. Whether you decide to buy in order to rent, to invest in your main residence or in your second home, you are choosing a reasoned investment that will not be subject to the same vagaries of the market as traditional real estate! Are you ready ? Here are the 5 reasons to invest in properties on a golf course!

1 / The environment

The first advantage of living on a golf course is its exceptional environment ! A unique place that pleases, that will please all the time, everyone and forever. It is so good to invest in such a green setting: peaceful, maintained to perfection and all year round, space, vegetation as far as the eye can see and peace. Buying on a golf course means above all choosing to invest in the heart of a preserved environment, a unique ecosystem where nature is protected. It is also the assurance of a stronger heritage valuation because the preserved environments prevent massive construction nearby!

2 / Security

Most of the largest and most beautiful golf courses in France are secured all year round. The golf course of the Pont Royal estate in the Bouches du Rhône, for example, has a guard post at the entrance and active surveillance! Golf security operates on the grounds 24 hours a day, day and night, to ensure the safety and comfort of its inhabitants all year round. Each car entering and leaving the estate is checked through the guardhouse and the estate has only one entry / exit. No need to invest in a high performance alarm system anymore, that's a real selling point!

3 / Sport, Passion

What seasoned golfer does not dream of being able to live near a fairway to make a living from his passion every day? It is no longer rare to meet golf enthusiasts who leave their city life to live year round or a few weeks a year on a golf course. You will now meet all profiles there: Retired, working, with your family or alone. And those who are new to this exciting sport, know that it is never too late to learn! Playful, good for the heart, the mind and the morale, it is suitable for all profiles and all ages!

The health crisis: the great upheaval!

The stone still appears to be a reliable and lasting investment for the French. Just like the good health of the sector, the rise in real estate prices is also significant and purchases are evolving: Since the repeated confinements, we have noticed a reversal in the residential course of households which favor more than ever a lifestyle in individual house. This territorial change announces a shortage of goods in rural areas which now attracts customers from all walks of life. The reason ? A need for space, for escape, a sudden change in mentality due to the multiple confinements that have marked people's minds. The French want space and enjoy life! With the supply of existing homes for sale down 26% over the past six months, it goes without saying that selling your property today represents a real opportunity to sell it quickly and well! Well estimated, your property will sell very (very) quickly! A study informs us that 35% of owners give up selling because they fear that they will not sell quickly enough. The same study shows that 26% of owners, who put off their plans to sell for fear of a loss. It is still difficult today to objectively estimate your home. To be sure not to make a mistake, it would be better to entrust it to a real estate agent who will know how to determine its real price.

Soaring real estate prices !

And that's not about to change! Many homeowners fear real estate will collapse and dare not sell. However, we note that the French real estate market has withstood the health crisis and for the moment nothing is slowing down the rise in prices. In addition, there is a real shortage of goods on the new home market. It is therefore a safe bet that many buyers frustrated at not being able to realize their projects, are finally turning to the old market.

Gaetan has a dream: to create a huge real estate complex around a golf course and decides to make it happen. A man of charisma, he manages to federate and inspire around his unique project and is inspired by the golf course of La Manga in Spain.

After many exchanges and negotiations, Gaetan collaborates with the mayor of Mallemort, Daniel Conte and with the support of Claude Roger Cartier, President of the French Golf Federation, creates a complex arrangement which leads to the creation in 1989 of the ZAC, a concerted development zone, an implementation agreement and a development plan for this zone.

Many plots are detached to bring this fabulous project to fruition! But to build, you must now surround yourself! It is the British company LONDON METROPOLITAN, developer, which takes up the challenge. The American architecture firm EDSA is retained to draw the first sketches of the project.
