Owning a villa on the Riviera shouldn’t become a second job. Atelier Reset looks after it while you’re away.
At a glance:
Move to Nice Relocation is a boutique property search, relocation and concierge service for international clients moving to Nice and the French Riviera. Clients often arrive unsure of the neighbourhoods, the paperwork or the market. The team gives them clear guidance and one local point of contact who follows through.
Atelier Reset looks after villas on the Côte d’Azur for international owners who spend part of the year elsewhere. The team acts as the owner’s trusted local point of contact, taking responsibility for the property while they’re away, from maintenance to repairs to whatever needs attention. Owners often worry about who will notice a problem, arrange a repair or make sure everything is ready for their return. Here, that responsibility is handled for them.
The approach is hands-on and personal. Atelier Reset is a locally based family team with over 25 years of experience in renovation, design and maintenance, combining hands-on expertise with personal service. They carry out the visits themselves and handle most of the work directly, bringing in trusted specialists only when needed. Owners deal with the people actually looking after their home, not a chain of managers and subcontractors.
The service comes in two parts. Care is ongoing property care, with regular visits, small fixes, maintenance, emergency response and coordination of contractors. Reset is a one-off intervention that brings a property back to standard, from resolving existing issues to repairs and renovation work, before Care begins or whenever more substantial work is needed. Much of the work is for British, American and Scandinavian owners.
The work covers buyers, renters and those who rent first and buy later, from apartments and villas to commercial properties and businesses for sale. Beyond the search, they prepare homes for arrival, from cleaners, technicians and deliveries to utilities, internet and insurance, and introduce newcomers to trusted professionals and a monthly community of residents.
