Four volumes, written from having done it rather than from having read about
it. Download the PDF and keep it. There is no form, no list and no inbox: if you
want to know the day a new one lands, the WhatsApp group is one message per
volume and you can leave whenever you like.
The 90-day countdown and French admin decoded: the visa question, the Carte Vitale, phone plans that cost €10 instead of €40, the banks that say yes to Americans, your driving licence, taxes in ten calm lines.
Renting and buying, what a notaire actually does, the real timeline of a French transaction month by month, and the ten questions to ask before signing anything.
