Estimate the selling price of my apartment in Paris and Ile-de-France
Estimating the selling price of your apartment: mistakes not to make
The first instinct of a future seller is to look at the price of apartments on real estate ads. These elements can in no way be used to build an accurate estimate of his property. Why? The prices on the ads are always overstated. Often around 10% and sometimes much more.
Another mistake that should also be avoided in order to properly estimate the selling price of my apartment: rely on the words of a neighbor, a friend who tells you that he sold his apartment at such a price. Not that you should not trust him, but it is quite common for a seller to inflate the price at which he managed to sell his property.
If you have carried out work in the apartment you want to sell, from the first year, it is subject to a discount. It is impossible to fully recover the costs incurred by work if they have not just been completed.
How to estimate?
In order to estimate the selling price of my apartment, I advise you to use the services and information of the Website of the Paris Chamber of Notaries. There you will find the average purchase prices by neighborhood. Attention these are net selling prices.
Depending on whether you rate your apartment significantly higher or lower in average quality, you can choose to add up to plus or minus 30% to it.
For example, an apartment on the top floor with elevator, renovated, renovated, new, unobstructed views, a good plan, beautiful volumes, in a quiet area, will be estimated at around average price +30%.
A low light and noisy ground floor for its part has an average price of -30%.
Calculate the selling price of your apartment
To sell an apartment quickly, one golden rule: the right price.
Obtaining the right price requires a very good knowledge of market prices. For this reason it is wise to call on a professional, agency or hunter to estimate the selling price as accurately as possible.
I’ve had the pleasure of working with Mme Josephine Dumoulin. From the moment I reached out, she was responsive and welcoming. As I’m based in the United States, staying in touch via WhatsApp was very convenient. Ms. Dumoulin was very knowledgeable and double checked key pieces of details to answer my questions. She was also very flexible with me during my last visit, which was a key moment for us to move forward on things. She also has a great network of notaires who have been very professional and helpful. I’ve been very pleased with Ms. Dumoulin’s partnership!
Great collaboration with Patrick Martinez! Very professional, relevant and friendly, I highly recommend him.
I needed support for this real estate project due to lack of time and the need to be reassured when choosing the property. I opted for Tell me about Paris, and I don't regret it. Susan who helped me was perfect. Always responsive and with good advice, she helped me well in the procedures and the research, she was always present, which allowed me to quickly find a very interesting property and in Paris what was unexpected for me. I highly recommend their support!
