Puteaux apartment hunter

Bare or furnished rental

Found!Discover research conducted quickly by Frédéric Girard, our apartment hunter specialized in the department of Hauts-de-Seine (92). Puteolian tenants looking for a Puteolian house with 3 bedrooms and a garden? Did Frédéric take up this challenge?

Once a puteolian, always a puteolian?

Has always lived in Puteaux, Nadine and Florent deeply love their neighborhood. Today, they live for rent in a beautiful apartment, with their 3 children attending schools in the city. Definitely rooted in their locality, they now want invest in a beautiful house !

Why did he need an apartment hunter?

Although her daily life is already busy, Nadine looked through the classified ads and saw some properties, but in an area as popular as Puteaux, his non-intensive approach could not work! As their project could not crystallize, the couple naturally sought outside help to lend them a hand!

How did they select HOME SELECT?

While browsing the web, Nadine and Florent stopped at the Home Select site, with a serious image and very competitive prices. After quickly describing their real estate project to Jean Mascla, the latter chose to entrust it to an apartment hunter specialized in this sector, Frédéric Girard. On paper, this research — with an extremely limited scope of action — was statistically unlikely to succeed ; however, after the first telephone contact, Frédéric immediately felt that the tide was going by and that there was a real commitment on the part of these first-time buyers.

Why were they looking exclusively at Puteaux?

To determine how Home Select worked and the criteria for the search mandate, Frédéric came to see them at their home. A way, for our apartment hunter, to also discover their environment and their tastes. Currently tenants of an apartment in Puteaux, Nadine and Florent wanted stay in the same geographic area : their children go to school there and the municipality offers such facilities that few Putaeolians want to go into exile elsewhere! Recognizing the impact of this requirement on research, they imposed only obvious criteria on the house itself, such as 3 rooms necessary for their family and the garden.

How did our apartment hunter get noticed?

Given these criteria, Frédéric's research was part of real challenge ! He therefore had the idea of presenting properties in Rueil-Malmaison to them, in order to broaden the initial perimeter. Very often, the role of the hunter is also to show them places little known to the general public, in order to get them to think about their initial criteria, which are sometimes difficult to combine. However, Frédéric has not forgotten the main objective: to find Nadine and Florent's dream house in Puteaux! For that, he started his work with a very targeted mailing to his contacts, partners and real estate agencies in Puteolian. Shortly after, he went to present himself physically to them, to present and support the good case of his clients. Indeed, Nadine and Florent benefited from excellent financing, with nearly 80% in equity.

What did the real estate market offer?

Frédéric quickly visited Everything about the Puteaux real estate market presented at that time, namely 6 houses, half of which were eliminated during the pre-visit, since it was not suitable for various reasons (no garden, too expensive, etc.) As Nadine and Florent were not in a hurry, our apartment hunter took the time to show them some properties, so that the couple could better understand the reality of the market...

How did Frédéric make a difference?

And then, His email finally found an echo with a young real estate agent, who decided to contact Frédéric for a property that was not even put on sale yet! Concretely, he had helped the current owners buy the house and had maintained relationships with the couple since that date. Having learned about their original project, he knew that the property would quickly find its way onto the market...

How can an address influence the purchase?

Located 150 meters from their current apartment, the coveted house perfectly suited the couple's geographical requirements: at this address, no need to change children's habits, who could continue to attend the same schools. Inside, the property had the 3 required bedrooms and the desired garden, but a lot of work was to be expected...

How not to buy “the most beautiful house in the neighborhood”?

For the record, Nadine and Florent passed by this house on a daily basis, which they qualified as like “the most beautiful house in the neighborhood”!!! Not to mention that the name of her street was named after their little girl! Visible from the kitchen of their apartment, it kept glancing at them! From an external point of view, it met all their criteria; internally, it had many elements to redo... But The crush was there! After a quick negotiation, to take into account the work to be done, the deal was completed!

Did the work envelope make it possible to negotiate the price?

Indeed, if the starting price of the house took into account certain renovations (the electrical installation, for example), Frédéric detected a problem with the heating system., causing — among other things — the problems of infiltration into the cellar, raised by the real estate agent during visits. Our apartment hunter therefore called in a plumber to diagnose and assess the restoration: a basis for carrying out the negotiation, avoid surprises and provide the financial envelope for these repairs.

“Organized bowl! ”

For Frédéric, this search was similar to “organized bowl” : a happy coincidence, combined with a relevant request — and in person — from each real estate agent, to draw up a careful portrait of a couple with solid financing, a guarantee of security for any agency!

An obvious fact!

Delighted with this collaboration, Nadine and Florent maintained contact with Frédéric and invited him to a good table, happy to have located The house of their dream. Not to mention that, thanks to him, their little girl can be proud to live on a street that bears his first name! A search punctuated by two obvious facts: the one concerning the house and the one concerning the added value that an experienced hunter represented!
