About

Tony arrived in Paris more than twenty-five years ago to study, and never left: he remains deeply attached to the city. He now knows Paris and its inner suburbs intimately, with particular expertise in the Hauts-de-Seine.

Having worked professionally in Brazil, he also guides Portuguese-speaking buyers, Brazilian clients in particular, through their purchase in Paris.

His career was built around property and wealth management. After a first experience in new-build real estate, he spent around ten years in wealth management, advising many clients on their wealth decisions. That double skill set, financial and property-based, led him naturally to become a property hunter, a role he has held with some ten years of overall experience behind him.

His added value rests first of all on rigorous property selection. After every viewing he studies the building management in depth, along with the technical and energy surveys, so that nothing is left open: the condition of the building, what the surveys really cover, the potential for improvement. His detailed knowledge of construction lets him cost the works and show you concretely what that potential is worth, so you can commit with full knowledge of the facts.

Whether you are looking for your main home or a long-term wealth purchase, Tony brings you a fine-grained knowledge of the Paris and Ile-de-France market, together with a rigorous financial and technical approach to help you make the best choices.

How they work

Tony's method

  1. Pin down your project, your priorities and your long-term horizon.
  2. Search the whole Paris and Ile-de-France market: listings, the Home Select network and his own local contacts.
  3. Shortlist properties so you never waste a viewing.
  4. After every viewing, analyse the building management and the technical and energy surveys.
  5. Cost the works and measure the property's potential for improvement.
  6. Advise you through the negotiation and secure the purchase all the way to signing.

Strengths and commitments

  • Around ten years of experience across real estate and wealth management.
  • A double reading of every property: asset value and technical condition.
  • Systematic analysis of the building management and surveys after each viewing.
  • A costed view of the works needed and of the potential for improvement.
  • Support in Portuguese for Portuguese-speaking buyers, Brazilian clients in particular.

Areas covered

  • Paris
  • The inner suburbs
  • Hauts-de-Seine

Their approach

Tony works in detail and over time: every shortlisted property is analysed beyond the viewing, building management and surveys included, and every reservation is put to you before you commit. His aim is not to multiply viewings, but to let you decide with the full picture in hand.

A concrete example

For a period apartment in need of refreshing, Tony does not stop at the impression left by the viewing: he reads the building's general meeting minutes, the works already voted through, the energy performance certificate, and then costs the works to expect. You know what the property will really cost, works and charges included, before making an offer.

Tailored property search

We were very satisfied with our experience with Home Select during the purchase of our apartment in Paris. Our property hunter was attentive to our requests and helped us find the perfect little pied-à-terre. She guided us through the process and ensured a seamless experience from start to finish. Finding a property in Paris while living in the United States could have been a daunting task, so we are very grateful that Home Select was there to help.

Bilingual expertise

Buying an apartment in Paris can be a complicated process, especially if you're not from France and don't speak the language. We were fortunate to work with Home Select, who specialize in helping international buyers through every step. She wasn't just an estate agent, she was a hands-on guide who made everything easier. She helped us understand different neighbourhoods and what kind of property and price made sense for our needs. She arranged viewings, gave clear feedback on each option and explained local practices we wouldn't have known otherwise. Once we found the place, she helped us select and work with a notary, handled paperwork, clarified what costs to expect and coordinated all the formal steps. After the purchase, her help didn't stop. She assisted in getting utilities (like electricity and internet) set up, helped us find a security system, and handled many practical things you only notice after the sale. She even took care of local calls and follow-ups we couldn't easily do ourselves. If you're planning to buy a property in Paris and want someone who really knows how to help buyers, I can't recommend her highly enough. It would have been very difficult without her.

Valued responsiveness

I highly recommend the Home Select agency to help you with your property search. A very special thank you to Home Select! Having clearly identified my expectations and my tastes, Home Select offered me a property that was not in my search area... but I loved it straight away! I thank them for keeping an eye out for other properties that might interest me, despite my specific criteria on paper. Having first searched for many months on my own before using a property hunter, I can confirm that it makes a real difference. Home Select gave excellent advice throughout the buying process, and were very present and responsive. Thank you for supporting me through this important step. All the very best to everyone!

Our conversations allowed me to get to know you well and to take the chance of offering you a property that, on paper, was outside your area but suited you perfectly. Thank you for your trust. I hope the renovations went well, as did your move. All the best for the future.

Significant time saved

When we called on the HOME SELECT firm, given the area of our search (17th and 18th), they put us in the hands of property hunter Home Select. After an initial meeting to explain our project, Home Select fully understood the type of property we were looking for. Home Select was extremely efficient in the search and saved us a considerable amount of time! They pre-select the apartment, we give the go-ahead (or not) for the viewing, they come and meet us at our place and send almost-live video of the apartment with all the essential observations. It's a genuine service! The fees may seem high, but given the time saved and the properties found, it very, very quickly pays for itself. Thanks again for everything!
