Buying an apartment in Paris and avoiding pitfalls
Buying an apartment in Paris: how to avoid the pitfalls?
Are you planning to buy an apartment in Paris and want to avoid unpleasant surprises? In this video, Patrick Martinez, a real estate hunter in Paris since 2009, gives you the keys to successfully completing your project: understanding the specificities of the local market, carefully preparing your financing, writing a solid purchase offer and negotiating the price as best as possible. It also details the main pitfalls not to be overlooked (hidden costs, poorly performed diagnoses, increased competition) and tips for securing your acquisition, whether for your main residence or for an investment.
We can only recommend and advise Parlez-moi de Paris for your real estate searches. We contacted them in September 2024 and our interlocutor, Olivier, was able to understand our request and refine our search criteria. He has shown patience and commitment to our project and thanks to him we have an apartment that we would not have had access to without his network and his knowledge. Thanks to Olivier and to the Parlez-moi de Paris team.
After having had a very disappointing experience with an apartment hunter for a year, given that we live abroad, in February I contacted “Parlez-moi de Paris” and from the first meeting with Susan we were reassured and comforted! And already in June, we signed the bill of sale! She immediately identified our priorities and needs, she has a gift for listening and feeling the other person. Very responsive, always available, calm and very professional, she accompanied us in all the procedures with the notary and even showed us the neighborhood that we did not know at all! A very nice experience!
I had the opportunity to collaborate with Suzan on two common issues and everything went well. She was very involved, available and efficient from start to finish, resulting in a smooth and timely transaction. It is a real pleasure to work with such a serious professional, whom I highly recommend!
