Discover in 3 steps why it is advisable to favor a local agency:

– She perfectly understands the local market

When you work with a property hunter in Paris, for example, you benefit from their experience, but also from their knowledge of the opportunities from the moment. Whether you want to buy or sell, this professional will be able to advise you according to the neighborhood and the real estate project that is close to your heart. Thus, you will easily find a property or a buyer that meets your expectations. As for the price, it will remain in harmony with that of the current market. It is very rare to get a "very good deal" with a local property hunter. However, you will certainly be able to avoid “very bad deals”.

To get an idea of the seriousness of a local real estate agency, find out locally by asking the neighborhood. You can also go online to consult the comments of customers who have dealt with the real estate hunter that interests you. This will give you a little insight into his skills.

–  Better listening if you are a buyer or a tenant

If you choose to get in touch with a network of real estate agencies, you will have a much better chance of finding the property that meets your expectations. However, the service will be treated in an "industrial" way. given the number of properties and prospects managed by these agencies. You will experience no pleasure in buying or renting from a network that does not necessarily have the time to receive you.

On the other hand, if you favor an apartment hunter in Paris among others , you will be accompanied by a professional who will listen to you if you have specific needs. Indeed, it should be kept in mind that the realities are different from one neighborhood to another. The price per square meter, the proximity of schools and various amenities will not be the same. If you use the services of a real estate hunter to acquire a property within his area of intervention, you will certainly be better informed. He will certainly be well placed to show you the available accommodation, but also the real market prices. He will be able to give you sound advice to help you find a property that meets your selection criteria.

– Because a local agency will know how to value your property if you are a seller or a lessor

If you want to sell an apartment or a house, consider choosing a local agency operating within 10 km of your property. The fact is that the job of an apartment hunter has a purely commercial part. He will be able to highlight the strengths of your property to his prospects. He will also fight to the end to defend your interests so that your property sells or rents at the best price, even if he has to persuade around twenty prospects to achieve this.

Still in the context of a sale, experience is an important criterion that ensures the success of a real estate sale and the legal certainty of the project. It is advisable to pay attention to the advertising means used. An agency often has effective means to promote your property. It puts up posters on its storefront, but also advertises online or in specialized newspapers.
