Rental search
The Paris rental market is one of the tightest in Europe. On average, 20 applications are submitted per viewing, and the best flats go within hours. Since 2011, our hunters have played on speed, the quality of your application and a network of 120 partner agencies. Two to four weeks to sign a lease.
Your search
Renting in Paris is not a search: it is a competition. Viewing, solid application, signed within 24 hours. Your hunter takes over the race for you: pre-selecting properties, building your file to the standard landlords expect, and getting the lease signed before you have time to second-guess yourself.
Every property that matches your brief is analysed within two hours of going live. Your hunter books the viewing straight away and prepares your application in parallel. On the Paris rental market, time is the single most important factor.
Our network of letting agencies and managing agents flags a great many properties to us before they go on the open market. For rentals, that early access is often the difference between signing the lease and watching the flat go to someone else.
Your hunter builds your application file to the standard Paris landlords expect: net income, guarantees, supporting documents, covering letter. Out of 20 applications submitted, the one that reads best wins.
Two to four weeks Average time between signing our mandate and signing your lease.
How we work
Four steps to sign a Paris lease in under a month.
A meeting by video or at our office. We agree on the arrondissements, budget, brief and move-in date, and we build your rental application: income, guarantors, supporting documents. Mandate signed.
We work the public portals, our 120-agency network and private listings in parallel. Every match is analysed within two hours. You receive a daily shortlist.
Serious leads are grouped into viewings on the same day. For any flat that suits you, your file is submitted on the spot with a covering letter, and your hunter argues your case directly with the managing agent. A real example: a two-room signed in 10 days in the 9th, against 35 competing applications.
We review the lease (clauses, deposit, fees) and stand alongside you at signing and at the move-in inventory. You take the keys with peace of mind, with no hidden clauses and no procedural slip.
Our packages
The method, the network and the work on your application file are identical in both packages. The only difference is the viewings: either you attend them yourself, or your hunter attends them on your behalf.
Fees are the same in both packages: one month's rent excluding charges plus 20% VAT, with a minimum of €2,000 incl. VAT. On a rent of €3,000 excluding charges, fees come to €3,600 incl. VAT. See our fees in full.
They rented with us
An urgent move to Paris for work meant I had to sign a lease within three weeks. My hunter sourced 12 flats, I viewed four on the same Saturday and signed the three-room in the Marais on the Monday. Without Home Select, I would have applied on my own to an overcrowded flat and lost two months.
Twenty-five years old, in my first job, with an average file. My hunter dressed it up properly and we signed an ideal lease within 11 days.
Living in Singapore, I couldn't be in Paris myself. Everything was handled over video, the lease was signed electronically and a relative picked up the keys.
Frequently asked
Our fee is one month's rent excluding charges, plus 20% VAT, with a minimum of €2,000 incl. VAT. On a rent of €3,000 excluding charges, that comes to €3,600 incl. VAT. There is no application fee and nothing to pay upfront: you pay only once the lease is signed, and only on a property we introduced to you.
Both packages cover the same work: reviewing your tenant application, refining your brief, analysing the rental market, sending you confirmed viewings that match your brief, championing your application with the agencies, supporting you through to the move-in inventory and attending it with you. The only difference is the viewings: with Liberty (non-exclusive mandate) you attend them yourself, while with Premium (exclusive mandate) your hunter attends on your behalf. The fee is the same either way.
The Paris standard: your last three payslips, employment contract (ideally a confirmed permanent one), last two tax notices, last three rent receipts or a residence certificate, ID and bank details. If your income is below three times the rent, a personal guarantor or the free Visale guarantee is essential.
Yes; they account for a significant share of our rental clients. We know how to build a file that Paris landlords will accept even when your income is paid in a foreign currency or you are about to start your first job in France. Depending on your profile, we use Visale, a bank guarantee or a professional guarantor.
On average, two to four weeks between signing our mandate and signing your lease. In peak season (June, July, September) it can stretch to four or six weeks. Out of season (November to February), 10 to 15 days is achievable.
Yes. Electronic signatures are now standard with most Paris letting agencies and managing agents. A friend, a family member or, on specific request, your hunter, can collect the keys and carry out the move-in inventory on your behalf.
Yes. We work on mobility leases (one to 10 months, for interns, doctoral students and short professional assignments), shared lettings (single lease or individual leases with a joint-liability clause) and standard furnished lettings. The paperwork differs, but our method is the same.
