ABOUT ME

Meet the person behind Quercy Property Care.

I’m Bart Schuurman and I believe owning a second home should be about enjoying your time in France—not worrying about maintenance, unexpected problems or finding the right local contacts.

MY STORY

From the Netherlands to the Quercy

I’ve always enjoyed working with my hands and solving practical problems. Renovating a bathroom, maintaining vehicles, landscaping a garden or solving unexpected problems—those were hobbies long before they became my work.

After years in marketing and communications, my wife, our two children and I decided to build a new life in the Quercy. Today we live near Caylus on a three-hectare property, where maintaining our home, garden and swimming pool is simply part of everyday life.

France has been part of my life for many years. Before moving here permanently, I spent many summers in my youth working on campsites across the country. Every day was different, but the part I enjoyed most was always the same: solving problems, helping people and making sure they enjoyed their time in France.

Today, Quercy Property Care brings all those experiences together. I speak Dutch, English and French fluently, have a good working knowledge of German and Italian, and work with a trusted network of local tradespeople whenever specialist expertise is needed.

My goal is simple: to give you one reliable local contact, so you can enjoy your home in France without the practical worries.
