Getting a Piece of the Paris Pie (And Points Beyond) Fractionally Free!

Now’s your chance to get a piece of the Paris pie and few other pies, I might add.

Every since Steve Navaro of Paris Home Shares offered up a fraction of his Marais two-bedroom luxury apartment, “Le Jardin Saint-Paul” at a special savings to Parler Paris readers…

And ever since Linda Hervieux’s article “In Paris, Owning an Eleventh of an Apartment” ran in the New York Times (May 14th — http://www.nytimes.com/), emails have been flying in and the phones are ringing off their hooks. Fractional ownership is the “newest and hottest way to own your own piece of Paris simply, easily and inexpensively without the hassles of purchasing it on your own, but with all the benefits of doing it yourself.”

Le Jardin Saint-Paul sold out thanks to all this publicity, but being the good guy he is, Steve Navaro is willing to extend the FREE STAY offer to our readers who purchase in his third fractional venture, “Chez La Tour” and on the one share he has left at “Villa Monceau.”

Chez La Tour is his most elegant offering to date, located in the heart of the chic 7th arrondissement, just one block from the Esplanade des Invalides, a few minutes by foot from the famous shopping street (that Rick Steves LOVES), rue Cler and so close to the Eiffel Tower you feel you could almost touch it. This spacious two-bedroom, 88 square-meter apartment redefines the word ‘luxurious’ in Paris.

The classic French apartment occupies the entire first floor above street level in a “petit” Haussmannian style “pierre-de-taille” building, just 100 meters from the Métro station “La Tour Maubourg,” and just around the corner from the fashionable rue Saint-Dominique with its many shops, cafés, and famous restaurants. The Seine is two minutes away by foot. The location is pure heaven.

Steve and his crew are currently reconfiguring the layout of this apartment to better utilize the space, to create larger bedrooms, each with their own bathroom.

Five shares remain: November, December, January, March and August. The current price is 109,900€ per share (one of 12), but if you wait till after June 30th, the price will escalate to 115,000€.

If you purchase a share (or two!) NOW, as a reader of Parler Paris or French Property Insider, you will save between 1,300€ and 1,500€ of annual dues, because Steve is going to pay it for you!

That’s virtually like making your first stay there absolutely free!!

You can visit Chez La Tour at our Web site: /frenchproperty/consultation or reserve your share now by emailing him at [email protected]

Chez La Tour isn’t the only offering Steve is making to you readers, either! All this time, he’s been holding on to one share of his first Paris apartment project, the lovely one-bedroom 58 square-meter apartment named “Villa Monceau.”

Appropriately named due to its close proximity to both Parc Monceau and the Arc de Triomphe, it’s on the 3rd floor (European, 4th U.S.) in an immaculately maintained “pierre-de-taille” building that underwent extensive renovation to bring it up to the luxurious standards of all Paris Home Shares properties.

That one share Steve is holding on to is up for grabs at the smaller price of 76,000€ and because he’s already paid the dues of 890€, your dues wouldn’t be due until 2009 for the next available usage month of July 2009!

You can visit Villa Monceau at http://www.parishomeshares.net/ or you can email at Steve at [email protected].

Always be sure to tell Steve that Adrian sent you to be sure you get the FREE STAY offering!

Paris Home Shares are not the only properties in the Paris pie up for the taking.

There is still one share left of the one-bedroom “pied-à-terre” on the Quai de Bourbon on the Ile Saint-Louis!

You could be the proud owner of own one portion out of only four portions of a 42 square-meter (475 square feet) loft on the romantic Ile Saint-Louis for 100,000€!

Located on the Quai de Bourbon, in the heart of Paris and on Paris’ chicest island, this bright, quiet and charming penthouse apartment has a fireplace, mezzanine with 18th-century exposed wood beam ceiling, skylight, is fully furnished and equipped with a separate kitchen and spacious bathroom. You will lavish in its old-world charm and gently hear the bells of Notre Dame chime in the background, while enjoying the benefits of your investment.

This offering is made by an individual who has rented the apartment for years and has a special opportunity to purchase the property, sharing it with a select group of four other owners. Three are already committed. With only one share left, this is an opportunity you won’t want to miss if you have even the slightest desire to own your own pied-à-terre in Paris and make an important investment in the strong and getting stronger euro.

To learn more or reserve your share before this one flies out the door, contact the organizer at [email protected] for more information and be sure to tell her Adrian sent you.

So, let’s say an apartment in Paris is not your ‘thing,’ because you dream more of life in a château.
Don’t despair, we can fix that, too!

Already, I can see your head spinning.
But there’s more.

It has a huge hand carved fireplace, contemporary furniture, art and antiques, a designer kitchen with bar, well-equipped kitchen, and all the electronic goodies, such as a large flat screen TV, DVD and WiFi. A terrace in the gardens is furnished with Jardin de Bagatelle furniture and a terrace in the wind-free cobbled courtyard has plantage teak furniture. A barbeque, sunbrellas, tennis rackets and beach chairs, crisp white bed linens and soft large towels are all there for your convenience.
