Passionate about Provence, its landscapes, and its exceptional properties, the Boschi family has been assisting and advising buyers, both French and foreign, since 1960.

Provence, an international passion

35% of transactions. That's the share represented by foreign clientele in the activities of Boschi Immobilier Prestige. Leading the way? Belgians, who for decades have appreciated the landscapes, olive groves, vineyards, and the quality of life in the region. They now represent about 40% of foreign acquisitions. They are followed by Americans and Canadians, then by European countries such as Germany or the Netherlands. "The real estate market in Provence is holding up well to the crisis, with sustained demand, especially from international clientele. The spring period generates particular interest among buyers eager to realize their projects in the region," explains David Boschi, managing principal at Boschi Immobilier Prestige. To effectively guide this foreign clientele, the company can rely on its team of 48 multilingual collaborators. It also benefits from strong international visibility thanks to its integration for several years into the Luxury Real Estate network, which brings together more than 4,000 agencies worldwide, all specializing in luxury real estate.

Provencal Mas and modern houses

What are the expectations of this international clientele? It all depends on the profiles. At Boschi Immobilier Prestige, 60% of searches are for second homes and 40% for primary residences. While the majority of buyers are in search of an authentic Provencal Mas in stone, others are also drawn to beautiful, very modern architect-designed houses: a living space of at least 200 m², numerous bedrooms to accommodate friends, children, and grandchildren, and of course a swimming pool and immediate access to nature. The ultimate? A wooded plot offering a dominant view of Mont Ventoux or the Alpilles, for example. "Buyers appreciate that we can introduce them to properties that match their project in the Alpilles, the Luberon, Mont Ventoux, and the Drôme Provençale. The coup de cœur will guide their choice," explains David Boschi.

Exceptional properties

Before visiting the properties in person, prospective buyers can consult our website where they will find detailed information on the properties, drone videos, or even immersive 3D tours. As for the budget, it varies according to the characteristics and services. Among the properties for sale this spring, we can mention a magnificent contemporary villa, with a pool, in the region of Sainte-Cécile-les-Vignes, priced at €998 000. Located on the southern slope of the Alpilles massif, the town of Maussane-les-Alpilles has two properties currently for sale by Boschi Immobilier Prestige. First, an elegant Bastide at €2,480,000, but also a residence of approximately 400 m² offering exceptional services on a landscaped park, priced at €7,700,000.

"These exceptional properties are indicative of the quality of luxury real estate in our region" concludes David Boschi.
