And nearly 3 million French have one of them.
The majority of the second homes are near the sun ( I mean in the south of France) like Paca, Languedoc Roussillon and the Rhone Alps… Then we go back to the north (with less sun 
) in Brittany…
But, as it’s getting so expensive in France, the French do not hesitate to buy abroad. For the price of an apartment in the south of France, they can reach a villa with a lovely garden in front of the the sea! It’s a quick decision for them! They don’t hesitate any more and can go even further like the Caribbean or in the Seychelles.
I went to see by curiosity the prices of villas for sale in Madagascar. And, I discovered unexpecting prices. For exemple, a villa of 217 m2 with large garden for 80.000 euros! In South of France, the same would be over 800 000 euros!
Considering the success of the second homes, a exhibition devoted to second homes was created in 2006. It is called “Second Place” and it takes place in Belgium. More than 5.500 visitors last year.
The exhibitors come to make you discover residences from all over the world (Cyprus, France, Italy, United Kingdom, Greece, South of Africa, Belgium, Portugal…)
The living room opened this year in March and the next edition will take place from the 28th of September to the 30th of September , 2007.
