Why is negotiation crucial in Paris?
In Paris, the asking price is not the final price. Even in a tight market, a negotiation margin almost always exists. The différence: knowing how to exploit it.
A private buyer, emotionally attached to the property, often negotiates poorly. The hunter, on the other hand, negotiates with objectivity and professionalism. It is their core expertise.
The maths is simple: on a property listed at 1 million euros, 6% negotiation = €60,000 saved. Our fees (2.5% of the net seller price) are more than offset.

Required works, nuisances, high charges... Every defect becomes a negotiation argument.
