Alsace is situated in the east of France, and along the banks of the Rhine River that flows into Germany. With a rich historical background that revolves around the mighty Roman empire, Alsace was once a part of Germany before becoming part of France. It is one of the smallest regions in France but is rich in flora and fauna. Surrounded by thick forests like the Haguenau forest and permeated by rivers, it has some of the most spectacular landscape with valleys and mountains with the highest point being the ballon de Guebwiller standing tall at 1428m. The climate here is semi-continental with hot summers and cold winters.
The climate in Alsace swings to two extremes and this has led to the rapid growth of real estate. Real estate investment and purchase of property on sale in Alsace is at a high.
