Buyer’s agent
How our buyer’s agents find your next apartment or house in Paris?
A buyer’s agent, chasseur immobilier in French, represents the buyer and only the buyer. In Paris, where the best apartments of the 6th and the Marais are shown to a shortlist before they are listed, where group viewings create artificial urgency and asking prices follow the seller’s hopes rather than what the street has sold for, that independence is the difference between paying fair value and paying the seller’s optimism.
It begins with a search mandate. Rather than a form, we start with a long conversation: what the home is for, who will use it and in which season, the light, the floor and the elevator that matter, the walk to the Marché des Enfants Rouges or to the Luxembourg, the metro line to the office or the school, the train from Gare du Nord or the drive to Charles de Gaulle, and the real budget once notaire fees and works are honestly accounted for. From that we write a precise brief and agree the perimeter, say the 6th and the 7th, the Marais, the 9th around South Pigalle, Passy and Auteuil in the 16th, before a single property reaches your inbox.
Then the network goes to work. Our Montclair side activates its relationships across the capital: estate agents who tip trusted buyers first, notaires who quietly hold inventory, private sellers, and syndics who know which apartments are about to come to market. We cross-check every candidate against the national DVF database of notarised sales, so you know the real value for the street and the floor, not the brochure price. You receive short, curated selections with our honest verdict on each, floor plans and video walk-throughs filmed on site. We view on your behalf and flag the deal-breakers, damp, a failing roof, a punishing DPE, a copropriété in difficulty, a basement in the Seine flood-risk zone, before you ever book a flight.
Because our Ynspir architects sit at the same table, a property that needs work is assessed for renovation before you offer, with a realistic budget on paper and the Bâtiments de France constraints of a protected facade already factored in. When you decide, we build the offer file, negotiate on results and coordinate the compromis de vente and the notaire in English. Found by Montclair, shaped by Ynspir, one mandate, your interest alone, from the first search to the finished home in Paris.

Renovation project management
Ynspir runs the works end to end. The fee is calculated on the works budget and covers design, quotes, artisans and site supervision.
Starting rates. Your exact fee depends on the brief and on the scope of the works, and is agreed in writing before anything begins. No fee is due if we do not find your property.
