Nadia's story
Nadia has been a nurse in Montréal for eighteen years; her family is from Béjaïa. She is looking for an F4 for the family's summers and, later, her retirement. Today at 16:00 Algiers time, Hiba shows her the show apartment by video. She will place an option with her passport, then sign at the notary in July.

What to plan for
- A dinar account
- At an Algerian bank: every payment to Oléane goes through it, with its references.
- The consular power of attorney
- So that a relative can sign or represent you at the handover. We send you the list of documents.
- The summer documents
- Passport, civil status documents, proof of income if a loan is planned: the list comes with the option.
- One person to talk to
- Hiba, in French, Arabic and English, at hours that suit you.
