How we value your apartment
We start from the sales actually signed around you, in the DVF databases and with notaires. We then adjust them to your apartment’s features: Carrez area, floor and lift, aspect, outlook, condition, outdoor space, cellar, service charges and works voted by the co-owners.
The price per square metre of your arrondissement is a starting point: see it here. Yet two apartments on the same street can differ by 20%.
Inheritance, gift, joint ownership
Passing on a property demands the same rigour as a sale, and a few more rules. Our guide “Passing on a Paris apartment” sets them out: valuing for the inheritance tax return, selling an inherited apartment, leaving joint ownership, giving or splitting ownership and inheriting from abroad.
For wealth tax or a divorce, our valuation follows the same method: sales actually signed in your building and street.
And if you sell
If you decide to sell, the valuation becomes the basis of our strategy: asking price, photographs, floor plans, selected viewings. We know the buyers looking in your district, and some apartments sell before they are even published.
Our fees are published, and the page selling an apartment in Paris explains how we work. The sales we have made in Paris are shown further down this page.

Frequently asked questions
Is an online valuation enough?
It gives an order of magnitude to within 10 or 15%. To sell or file an inheritance tax return, a visit remains essential: floor, light, condition and building all change the price.
Is the valuation accepted by the notaire?
Yes, it serves as the basis for the return. If there is a check, the tax office compares it with sales in the area: that is why we cite them in our valuation.
How long does it take?
We visit within a few days and give you the written valuation the following week.
