Frequently asked questions about buying agents
What is a buying agent (chasseur immobilier)?
A buying agent searches for a property on behalf of the buyer: defining the brief, shortlisting properties, arranging viewings and negotiating. It is a regulated activity, carried out under the carte T licence.
Is French Realty a buying agent?
No. French Realty is a services hub that connects you with a partner buying agent, holder of the carte T, who carries out the search under their own responsibility. We guide and coordinate.
Can I use a buying agent from abroad?
Yes, this is the most common use for non-residents: the partner buying agent visits, films and negotiates on site while you follow remotely. French Realty coordinates everything.
How much does a buying agent cost?
The partner buying agent's fees depend on their own schedule and are set and billed by them, usually as a percentage of the property price. The introduction by French Realty happens upstream of your project.
French Realty acts as a business introducer: it informs, guides and coordinates. Regulated property transactions are carried out by a partner holding the carte T, under its own responsibility.
