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.

Unique in the South of France, we feel privileged and excited to attend this great golf tournament which brings together enthusiasts and renowned professional golfers! Free and open to all, the competition welcomed no less than 7,000 spectators in 2019 and is now one of the major tournaments of the European Challenge Tour.
