Apartment hunter in Paris asked to support a first-time buyer

Found!Discover a search quickly conducted by Ségolène Sautarel, our apartment hunter specialized in Paris in any sector. Charlotte is a young woman determined to buy her first real estate property, but after some disappointments, she decides to be accompanied by an expert...

Why did his 2 offers not succeed?

Having rented an apartment for 10 years that she can't stand anymore, Charlotte goes in search of a property to acquire. After 6 months of research, she wrote 2 offers that were finally unsuccessful. One was refused because it was not the first formulated; the other, although accepted, had to be cancelled due to funding problems.

Why did an apartment hunter sound like a no-brainer?

After benefiting from a contribution of family money to make her real estate purchase project a success, Charlotte decides to be accompanied by an apartment hunter.

How did she select HOME SELECT real estate hunter?

On the Internet, the young woman came across the HOME SELECT site and decided to fill out the contact form. Upon receipt, Jean Mascla entrusts the file to Ségolène Sautarel to carry out Charlotte's search. Our apartment hunter then takes a few minutes to study the market in the coveted sectors...

What exactly was Charlotte looking for?

Having no interest in coming to see the environment that the young woman no longer appreciates, Ségolène organizes a telephone appointment to determine the key criteria to be observed: with a budget of 277,000 euros including notary fees, Charlotte is looking for a large studio or a small 2-room apartment, preferably in the Haussmann style and ideally atypical. Open to major works, she especially wants to find a property in a neighborhood she likes — whether in the 11th (primarily), the 20th or the 19th arrondissement of Paris.

How did Ségolène evaluate her real estate purchase project?

Fully aware of the realities of the market, Ségolène knows that the budget for this research is coherent. Therefore, she sets up the HOME SELECT application to receive her personalized alerts and activates her network by launching various emails to key players in the sector.

Why did she not manage to position herself on this crush?

48 hours after the signing of the search mandate, Ségolène gets her hands on an apartment in the 20^E district, which meets all the criteria desired by Charlotte. Still, a lot of work had to be done... Even if the work envelope was part of the young woman's budget, she did not want to follow up - despite her crush - convinced that she could find better. From experience, our hunter knows that it is always difficult, in a search, to position themselves on a property so quickly, because customers always have the impression that they are missing out on a better deal...

Through what channel did Ségolène finally find Charlotte's apartment

Active in her research, Ségolène found an attractive ad on the Internet. Managed by an agency, this property is very promising: she therefore decided to pre-visit it in the morning. Our hunter is the first to see it! Immediately seduced, she calls Charlotte to set up a second visit the same day.

Why did the young woman like this large studio so much?

Very bright, this large studio - easily convertible into a small 2-room apartment - is 27 m² and is located on 5^E floor of a 1970s residence: even if it is not in Haussmannian style, it is mostly located on the same street as the first favorite apartment she visited, in a neighborhood that she really likes.

Was Charlotte able to position herself quickly enough?

At the end of her visit, Charlotte wrote an offer at the price of 240,000€ FAI, which was accepted the next day. Despite her status as a first-time buyer, the young woman is perfectly aware that it is necessary to quickly position herself on small surfaces in Paris.

What budget should be provided for the work?

The apartment required major work, valued at 30,000€. With this envelope, Charlotte could redo the electricity, floors and paintings, but above all, she could move the kitchen to create a well-defined bedroom space and create an open living room/kitchen.

“If all research could go this way...”

All the ingredients were there in this search: timing and a customer who was both responsive and available! If all research could go this way... Indeed, no problem — whether in terms of research or the acquisition procedure: it is extremely motivating and enjoyable!

2 weeks, 2 favorites!

Charlotte is definitely delighted with this collaboration: in 2 weeks, Ségolène managed to arouse 2 favorites!
