Real estate search mandate: find the home of your dreams

Looking for real estate to acquire? But between time-consuming searches, visits to organize and all the procedures to be carried out, it is sometimes difficult to find your way around. So to insure your transaction, why not use a real estate hunter through the real estate search mandate? Tell me about Paris, an apartment hunter in Paris, explains the essential things you need to know about the real estate search mandate.

What is a research mandate?

The real estate search mandate is governed by the Hoguet law of 1970 relating to the activity of apartment hunters. This is the contract by which a natural or legal person entrusts the search for a property to a real estate agent. In order to protect the future purchaser, the mandatary must have a professional real estate transaction card. In addition, fees are only due in case of conclusion of a sale by notary.

The search mandate includes a certain number of services incumbent on the real estate hunter.

The research: it must be done according to the criteria mentioned by the customer. In order to find the properties corresponding to the expectations of the purchaser, the real estate expert has the various ads, professional platforms, but also his personal network.
Visits: the real estate agent organizes the visits by ensuring that all the criteria mentioned are respected.
Negotiation: The property hunter assists his clients in negotiating and drafting the offer.
Security: he also has the duty to check all the particulars present in the authentic instrument.
These services run from the signing of the mandate contract to the conclusion of the act of sale.

What are the different types of research mandates?

There are two very distinct types of research mandates:

Simple search mandate: the principal has the right to carry out real estate searches at the same time as the agent. He can also entrust the management of it to other property hunters in order to optimize his chances.
Exclusive research mandate: the future buyer cannot call on other real estate agents, or do research by himself. In this case, if you find a property by yourself, the fees will be due. It is therefore preferable to entrust all the information to the real estate hunter, so that he can take over and secure the contract.

What are the advantages of a real estate search mandate?

The real estate search mandate has many advantages for the future purchaser:

Time saving: Another person is in charge of doing the research and organizing the visits. And all this, based exclusively on your criteria in order to help you find the property of your dreams.
More offers: thanks to a network built up throughout his professional experience, the real estate hunter has access to housing that does not appear anywhere else.
Advice: The real estate hunter is bound by a duty of advice to his customers. This concerns both the research phase (market price, best neighborhood, etc.) and the signing of the bill of sale.
Expertise: the real estate hunter is an expert in his field. He knows the market, the neighborhoods, the prices, the legal rules, etc. He will thus know how to find the best opportunities for you, while securing the act of sale.
