Paris Courbevoie apartment hunter: a visit, an offer, an acquisition

First-time homebuyer

Found!Discover a search conducted very quickly by Véronique Savoyen, our apartment hunter specialized in Western Paris. A visit, an offer, an acquisition! However, beyond the research itself, Véronique's support was decisive on this issue...

Tenant in Courbevoie, why was Thierry looking to buy?

An independent consultant, Thierry is a young man in his thirties who travels throughout Ile de France, even if, most of the time, he works in the neighborhood in La Défense. Currently renting an apartment in Courbevoie, his personal life has taken a new turn, which pushes him to buy real estate for the first time.

What could an apartment hunter help him with?

While waiting for his divorce to be finalized, Thierry decides to contact an apartment hunter to “take a look” at the properties available on the Parisian market...

How did HOME SELECT convince Thierry?

Very well referenced, the Home Select site played its role as a showcase perfectly, convincing Thierry to contact Jean Mascla for this search. Both available and attentive, the latter then called his real estate hunter, a specialist in the coveted sector: Véronique Savoyen.

What criteria did the research involve?

On the phone, Thierry and Véronique agreed to an appointment at his home, in Courbevoie, in order to define the search criteria and sign the exclusive mandate: with a budget of 350,000€, he wanted to buy a property with a surface area of 45 m², with at least 2 rooms, with at least 2 rooms, in a recent building, located in the Levallois, Puteaux, Courbevoie, Boulogne and Issy-les-Moulineaux sector. He also wanted a parking space in the same building and included in the mentioned budget.

How did our apartment hunter go about it?

With a solid network in Boulogne and Issy-les-Moulineaux, Véronique naturally made her relationships work. For other sectors, she conducted research via the HS app and relied on the network of Home Select colleagues.

Why was the research done in two stages?

Although the mandate was exclusive, it allowed Thierry to use his personal contacts to make a few visits on his side: 8 days after this first appointment, he announced to Véronique that he was about to make an offer, on an available apartment in his building. Having not had the opportunity to show her know-how, our real estate hunter does not hide her disappointment: however, she understands the situation and expresses all her support for this new purchase. A week later, Thierry called her back to tell her that the operation was finally not done and that she could resume her research. She sent him several property sheets on Issy-Les-Moulineaux, but quickly, she understood that he preferred her to focus on Courbevoie...

How did Véronique find Thierry's apartment?

Véronique resumes her research via the HS application and identifies a property with high potential: she therefore organizes a visit to the apartment, one evening, at 6 pm, with Thierry and the real estate agent.

Did it meet all the criteria?

Very well maintained, the apartment is spotless. Not to mention that for a budget of 293,000€, it also offers a parking space, as Thierry wanted! Located on the way to work, he meets all his criteria: all he has to do is put his bags down!

Did our first-time buyer hesitate for a long time?

At the end of the visit, Thierry is convinced by the services of this property (just like Véronique!) : he decides to make an offer, which is immediately accepted! It only took one visit with our real estate hunter to find out! But Véronique's role did not end there: with, on the one hand, an inefficient notary clerk, and on the other hand, a condominium in the midst of a change of trustee, it was very difficult to obtain the documents necessary for the sale. Not to mention that in the middle of all this, the real estate agency got angry with the notary, to the point of not coming to sign the compromise or to sign the authentic instrument! Fortunately, Thierry could rely on Véronique to assist him with administrative matters. She remembers the hours spent on the phone trying to find a consensus between each of the parties.

Did Thierry's apartment need to do some work?

The apartment did not require any work: Thierry was able to move in immediately after the sale!

“Serene, calm and available”

Thierry was a charming man, calm, serene and available. All these qualities were necessary in the face of administrative burden (enhanced by the ALUR law), even if Véronique accompanied him, step by step, until the final file was drawn up.

“A decisive support for more than one reason! ”

In addition to the research that was carried out and concluded very quickly, Thierry discovered that an apartment hunter was also there, to support him in all the ancillary procedures, until he signed the document. Support at all times, from Véronique, which he particularly appreciated.
