Our service covers every step of your relocation, from property search to move-in. It includes property selection, visit organization, lease negotiation and signing, check-in inspection, and the setup of utilities (energy, internet, home insurance). Our goal is to provide a smooth, secure and stress-free relocation experience, with a single dedicated point of contact throughout the process.
A traditional agency works for the landlord and aims to rent its inventory as quickly as possible. We act exclusively on behalf of tenants as apartment hunters. We scan the entire market (agencies, private owners, off-market listings) to find the property that truly matches your criteria and to actively defend your application.
Yes. Thanks to our long-standing presence and a network of over 80 partners in Paris and the Île-de-France region, we have access to off-market and pre-listed properties before they are published on major real estate platforms. This is a key advantage in a highly competitive market.
This situation is extremely rare, as we validate the feasibility of your project before starting any assignment. Since our creation, 100% of our searches have been successful. Until a property is secured, we continue searching or adjust the strategy together. Moreover, 50% of our fees are only due upon success, at lease signing.
Absolutely. This is one of our core specialties. Most of our clients rent remotely. We visit on your behalf, inspect every detail, provide detailed visit reports and manage the lease signing. You arrive in Paris simply to collect the keys, with complete peace of mind.
Landlords usually require an ID, the last three payslips, the latest tax notice, proof of current address and an employment certificate. For more complex profiles, we help you build a strong and reassuring application.
Yes. We regularly support freelancers, trial-period employees and profiles without permanent contracts. We know how to present these profiles to landlords and insurers and can guide you toward suitable guarantee solutions.
A guarantor is often required, especially for students and young professionals. If you do not have one, we work with recognized guarantor institutions that can act as a trusted guarantor for Parisian landlords and agencies.
Yes. We support French and international students as well as shared housing projects. Depending on the strength of the application and defined criteria, we adapt our strategy to identify the best opportunities available.
Once your application file is complete and the mandate signed, the average timeframe is around 20 days. For urgent requests, our responsiveness can sometimes secure a lease in under one week.
In 2026, the average budget ranges between €35 and €45 per sqm for quality furnished rentals in central Paris. Studios typically start around €800–900, while one-bedroom apartments range from €1,400–1,700. A precise estimate is provided during our first consultation.
Each Paris district has its own identity. The right choice depends on your lifestyle, work location, family situation and priorities. During our consultation, we guide you toward the districts best suited to your profile.
Yes. We search for both furnished and unfurnished properties. Furnished apartments offer flexibility and immediate move-in, while unfurnished properties are better suited for long-term installations.
For furnished apartments, leases are generally one year renewable. For unfurnished properties, leases are three years. Mobility leases also exist, ranging from 1 to 10 months. In Paris, tenant notice periods are one month.
Rental charges generally include cold water, common area maintenance and elevator costs. Electricity, gas and internet are usually at the tenant’s expense unless a specific all-inclusive package is mentioned.
Our fees are transparent and performance-based. 50% is paid at the start of the mission to activate the search, and the remaining 50% is only due upon success, at lease signing.
Our fees cover exclusively our search and relocation support service. Any agency fees related to the property itself are separate and regulated by law. When renting directly from a private landlord, no additional agency fees apply.

We work with specialized immigration partners and can coordinate your housing setup alongside your administrative procedures to ensure a smooth arrival in France.
Using a relocation agency saves time, secures recruitment and ensures a smooth arrival for talents. An employee struggling with housing is stressed and less productive. By delegating this mission, you enhance your employer brand and free HR teams from time-consuming administrative tasks.
Our services are based on customized quotations. Pricing depends on mission complexity and volume. This cost should be viewed as an investment, far lower than the cost of a failed recruitment or early resignation due to housing issues.
This depends on your HR policy. Most companies cover relocation fees as part of the onboarding package, while others reimburse expenses or opt for partial coverage. We adapt to your internal processes.
