I have known Tracy Leonetti for many years, over 10 in fact. She was, and still is, friendly and always eager to help.

That eagerness to help comes in very handy for those wishing to settle in France which comes with the various challenges of paperwork – the legendary French bureaucracy. It isn’t that it insurmountable, it just comes along at the wrong time. Tracy can pre-empt a lot of this by discussing what is involved before actually moving; that way the path can be planned and smoothed.

Tracy deals with all aspects of the journey from visas and health through to being available for key meetings, this is comforting as it takes the fear out of the situation . Of course, sometimes things do not run as smoothly as one would wish. Having someone on hand who has the necessary experience helps enormously. Tracy does point out that views expressed in the press and on the internet are not necessarily what happens in the real world.

With a significant client list, a programme of seminars and consultations, you maybe asking how Tracy has the time to devote to individuals and connecting fully with their issues. Organisation is her key. Before moving forward Tracy will find out, by way of a consultation, what is needed in a particular case. Add into the equation her efficient team then things will motor along.

Who are Tracy’s clients? This is a really interesting aspect to her work. Of course there are the retirees. What may surprise you is that many retirees are now coming from the US as well as the UK and other anglophones. Then there are the people who are moving for business reasons, some with families. Many come with the expectation of running a business, an area in which Tracy excels, and this can be people at any stage of their lives. Tracy has even has had octogenarians with business, not retirement, in their focus.

On her site Tracy has various podcasts and guides to provide insight into how certain aspects work. She also has her Serenity Club offering which provides a total ‘hand holding’ arrangement for those looking to seamlessly integrate into their new life on the Riviera. She has clients outside of the area too. Tracy has built her business on the basis of being effective, diligent and fair which in turn has brought her many clients by word of mouth – that is significant and a testament to Tracy’s work ethic.
