Your apartment

A Chartrons apartment has an origin

Here, almost no apartment was born an apartment. Yours occupies either a converted chai, a floor of a divided merchant's house, or a building raised later between the two. That origin explains everything that makes its value: the ceiling height, the width of the openings, whether roof timbers are exposed, the way light enters. A buyer who understands where a property comes from measures its qualities differently. That is what we establish before any viewing.

Establishing the origin

We determine what the building was, the year of its conversion where relevant, the exact ceiling height, the orientation and what the window gives you to see. These count far more than floor area, and they are what builds the valuation.

Buyers already searching

We follow buyers across Bordeaux, several of whom are looking precisely for a chai floor or a level in an old house in the Chartrons. Your apartment may be the one they have been waiting months for.

A sale that stays between us

In a small development created from a divided house, a sale is known at once. We can present your apartment to the circle of our buyers alone, with no listing and no repeated traffic on the stairs.

One person throughout

Surveys, building documents, viewings, notaire, completion: the same person follows your file from end to end and stays reachable at every stage.

Sector by sector

Three origins, three arguments

The quays and the river

The converted warehouses, where volumes and view carry most of the value.

Rue Notre-Dame

The floors of the commercial heart, where neighbourhood life at the door counts.

Towards the Jardin Public

The bourgeois buildings of the quieter streets, a few steps from the park.

Towards the Quinconces

Nearness to the historic centre, reached entirely on foot.

The buyer looks up at the roof timbers, stays a moment without speaking, and you know the question of price will no longer be put in the same terms.

Our method

How we conduct your sale

We come and see

A visit by appointment, at the hour when your apartment takes the light best. We establish the building's origin as much as the condition of the lot, then give you a reasoned valuation.

We tell your building

Photographs taken at the right moment, a description conveying the building's origin, the ceiling height and the light, and archive material where it exists. What is understood can be defended.

We choose who comes

We conduct the viewings ourselves, with candidates whose funding is established, and group them into a few slots agreed together.

We lead the negotiation

We conduct the exchange with the buyer through to the preliminary contract and then the notaire, the co-ownership file having been assembled from our first meeting.

Frequently asked

What sellers ask us

No. In the Chartrons, a chai floor and a classic second floor of the same size share neither ceiling height, nor light, nor origin. We start from the building and its history, the level, the orientation and what the window gives you to see.

From the fabric itself: the structure, the openings, the traces of original use. The land registry and municipal archives complete the reading. With conversions, the year and the architect of the works are elements of value that we document.

Our view is given to you without evasion at the first visit. On chai floors particularly, what matters is less the decoration than how the volumes and the light are brought out on the day of the photographs.

The statutory surveys, the co-ownership rules, recent general meeting minutes and the service charge notices. We take care of requesting them from the managing agent, so that nothing slows the sale later.

Agreed in advance, transparent, and due only once the sale is signed. The fee schedule is given to you at our first meeting.
