Top Real Estate Agents in Paris, France

Who are the best real estate agents in Paris, France ? As more than 8% of the buyers in Paris are foreigners, that question is not trivial at all. Indeed, many foreign buyers are going to wonder who they should buy (or sell) with. Even more so as the leading real estate agencies in Paris are not very well known abroad. If you’re American for example, know that you won’t find The Corcoran Group or Compass here in Paris.

Company presentations

Daniel Féau

Daniel Féau is my number one suggestion if you want to buy a property in Paris. Although I could try to describe why with my own words, I find that the presentation of their services on their own website will serve you better: “Daniel Féau is by far the major player in the sale and acquisition of prestigious apartments, private homes and Hotels Particuliers in Paris and its desirable western suburbs. In our neighbourhoods our agencies conclude one in three sales at prices of between 2 and 5 million euro, and over half of the sales at prices exceeding 5 million euro. We also sell between 600 and 700 apartments each year at prices ranging from 500 000 to 2 million euro.”
