Boulogne-Billancourt real estate hunter for a man looking for a property
Discover a search quickly conducted by Véronique Savoyen, our apartment hunter specialized in Boulogne-Billancourt! Romain owns his current home, Paris 9th, but wants to leave him to live again in the neighborhood of his childhood, and more particularly in Rue Escudier, the place of his childhood and his best memories, but also a very popular area that our real estate hunter will search for his client...
Why did he want to move to another apartment?
Owner of his current property, Romain is a single man eager to leave home, to find an apartment on the street where he lived when he was a child. Indeed, he has very beautiful memories until the age of 6 or 7, which concern rue Escudier, located in Boulogne-Billancourt...
Why did Romain look for an apartment hunter?
Relatively available, Romain did not contact an apartment hunter due to lack of time, he especially needed support in his purchase. In this specific case, the “consulting” dimension of the profession was more important than the research itself.
Why HOME SELECT real estate hunter?
Romain got to know HOME SELECT through a friend, who was satisfied with the service provided by Gaëlle Loheac. But given the specificity of the research (on a single street), Gaëlle recommended Véronique Savoyen for this file, because she is the Boulogne-Billancourt specialist of the HOME SELECT network.
What made this research special?
After an initial telephone exchange to explain how HOME SELECT works, Véronique evaluated all the search criteria with Romain.
In terms of geographical area, the zone was limited to a single street — Rue Escudier — or even to a number and a building. Fully aware of the difficulty of finding his rare pearl, he gave Véronique all the time necessary to achieve his goals: he owned his property and was not at all in a hurry.
At the same time, Romain wanted a crossing apartment without any external surface (no balcony, no bay windows, no terrace). Finally, he wanted to do some work — which meant that our real estate hunter kept a financial envelope for this purpose in the planned budget.
What were the advantages of this real estate search?
Véronique knows the real estate market in Boulogne-Billancourt perfectly. She knew that a 2-room apartment was a promising segment in this sector. It would have been more difficult to find 3, 4 or 5 pieces there.
To make this acquisition a reality in this very popular district of the Escudier Market, our apartment hunter had a coherent budget, with a small margin of maneuver if necessary.
Was Véronique able to present him with several items of property?
Despite limiting the search area to a single street, Véronique made several visits with Romain. He even made several offers at the price, before withdrawing after a few days for various reasons.
Moreover, it was during one of her visits that our hunter realized that the presence of an outsider was unacceptable: until now she thought that it was mainly an exclusion for financial reasons.
On what support did the apartment hunter find?
Véronique spots an ad that may perfectly correspond to Romain. Unfortunately, the property is managed by an agency that does not want to work with hunters — who have had a bad experience with them. Persevering, Véronique contacted the real estate agent in charge of the file directly and arranged for an appointment.
What is the description of the property found?
Located in a small street perpendicular to the corner of Rue Escudier, the apartment is on 2E floor without elevator of an old building. Crossing, it is, as Romain wanted, entirely to be redone!
Did Romain stick to his decision?
During the visit, Romain does not let anything appear, neither to Véronique, nor to the real estate agent. But, as soon as it is released, he wants to make an offer at the price. Given the agency's reluctance to deal with hunters, Véronique asks him if he is sure of himself. Romain then guarantees him yes: it would even seem that it was a crush! From then on, the acquisition procedure started: promise to sell, search for financing and signing of the final act...
Why did he want an apartment with work?
When looking for a property to renovate, Romain especially wanted to optimize costs: in fact, thanks to this type of property, he could benefit from lower notary fees, as well as a lower acquisition price. Having no fixed decoration projects, he left it up to the good care of a company he himself chose.
“Trust and transparency”
For Véronique, this research has inspired trust and transparency both with respect to the client and to the real estate agency. On the one hand, she was able to work in a pleasant environment, where Romain understood perfectly well that she could not find it immediately. Listening to her advice and available, he greatly contributed to creating this relationship of trust. For her part, Véronique has acted in total transparency, and now benefits from an additional working contact in her network!
Delighted to be back in Boulogne-Billancourt
The city of Boulogne-Billancourt (and more particularly the rue Escudier) is so associated with happy memories, that Romain is absolutely delighted to be walking there again and to be able to live in the neighborhood of his childhood.
