Property surveys in Villenave-d'Ornon : what you need to know

Villenave-d'Ornon, south of Bordeaux, brings together several districts with distinct characters. Pont-de-la-Maye and the areas close to Bègles have échoppes (single-storey stone townhouses) and townhouses. Elsewhere, houses from the 1960s to the 1990s, blocks of flats and recent schemes dominate. To the south, a few Graves wine estates recall the town's past.

For an échoppe or an old house built before 1 January 1949, a CREP (lead report) is mandatory. Houses and residences whose building permit predates 1 July 1997 need an asbestos survey. Gas and electrical installations over 15 years old must be checked. Selling a flat in a shared building requires the loi Carrez (floor area). To let a property, the DPE (Energy Performance Certificate) and loi Boutin living area are mandatory: G-rated homes have been off the rental market since 1 January 2025, and F-rated homes will be in 2028. A termite inspection is required in municipalities covered by a prefectoral order: we check the situation for your address.

Depending on where the property stands, the ERP (risk statement) may mention flooding from the Garonne in low-lying areas to the east, overflow from the Eau Bourde stream, and shrink-swell clay.
