A former bank in the heart of Montmartre
Located at 14 rue Damrémont (Paris 18th), our agency occupies a former bank branch whose original vault room we have preserved.
This setting embodies the values that guide our daily work: absolute confidentiality, secure commitments and the rigour of long-term property advice.
As a member of the Agence Principale network established in 1989, we combine the reach of an established French network with pinpoint expertise of the Montmartre micro-market and Parisian arrondissements.

Why the dual market protects your sale price
In today's market, a simple local listing is no longer enough. Opening your property to international buyers shifts the balance of power when it comes to negotiating.
More buyers = You choose
Widening the search beyond local boundaries multiplies the number of financially sound buyers for your apartment. You are no longer at the mercy of one isolated buyer's aggressive negotiation.
A different price anchor
A buyer from New York, London or Geneva compares Paris with their own reference market. They are looking for a way of life and often negotiate with a long-term, wealth-building mindset.
Parisian charm as real value
Original parquet floors, mouldings, a fireplace, rooftop views or Montmartre's village atmosphere: what is sometimes taken for granted locally becomes the ultimate "love at first sight" asset for these buyers.
Financial security, no more collapsed sales
Every buyer file is reviewed upfront: personal deposit, borrowing capacity or cash purchase. The security deposit is held directly by the notary's office.
How we support you in 3 key steps
From the initial valuation to the final deed signed at the notary's, we manage every stage with precision.
An on-site, reasoned valuation
We assess your property against actual sales in the neighbourhood, its floor level, the building and its specific strengths. No simplistic algorithm — a genuine human assessment.
Dual marketing
Your property is marketed simultaneously to qualified Parisian buyers and presented directly to our international buyer network (English-speaking buyers, expats).
Offer screening and verification
Before presenting any offer, we check the financing plan, the source of funds and the timeline. You decide with complete peace of mind, based on verified facts.
By your side at 14 rue Damrémont
Every valuation, viewing and negotiation is handled by dedicated advisors who live and breathe Montmartre and the 18th arrondissement daily.
Frequently asked questions from owners
Everything you need to know before putting your Paris property on the market.
Why is the dual market more protective than a traditional agency?
A traditional agency often simply publishes a listing on the usual property portals and waits for local calls. By opening your apartment to qualified international demand, we create healthy competition: several buyers with different profiles make offers, so you don't have to give in to value-destroying negotiations.
My apartment isn't a mansion. Does the dual market still apply?
Absolutely. International buyers and expats are actively looking for typically Parisian one- and two-bedroom or family apartments (parquet floors, mouldings, fireplaces, top floor, balcony or village charm as in Montmartre). It is precisely on these properties with character that the difference in value is made.
How do you verify a foreign buyer's financing?
We require bank letters or verified proof of funds before anything is signed. For buyers who need a mortgage, we work with brokers specialising in non-resident clients. Finally, the deposit (5% to 10%) is held in escrow by the notary from the signing of the preliminary sale agreement (compromis de vente).
Do I need to sign an exclusive mandate to benefit from this network?
An exclusive mandate allows us to commit our full marketing plan (professional photography, targeted bilingual presentation, activation of our direct network). It guarantees you a single accountable contact, a consistent market price without devaluation, and systematic feedback after every enquiry.
