CHABERT GROUP INTERNATIONAL REAL ESTATE

What CHABERT GROUP INTERNATIONAL REAL ESTATE offers English speakers in Villefranche-sur-Mer

Chabert Group is a mother and daughter business on place de la Paix in Villefranche-sur-Mer, a short walk from the old port. Isabelle Chabert has spent over twenty years in local property; her daughter Anne-Laure Isoard-Chabert, who chairs the company, practised as a lawyer before joining. That is the reason to bring them anything with a complication in it, an inheritance sale, a divorce, a title problem, though a lawyer in the family is not a substitute for your own notaire. Alexandre Mary, Matteo Gattone and Mathilde Bouscarra handle transactions, and the firm runs both long-term and holiday lettings. Buyers name Anne-Laure herself for excellent English on viewings.

Sellers here should know there are two ways to tie up a sale, and they leave you in very different positions. A compromis de vente binds both sides: the buyer can only withdraw within the statutory cooling-off window or on a stated condition such as a refused mortgage. A promesse unilatérale de vente binds only you. You commit to sell at an agreed price for an option period while the buyer decides, and pays a non-refundable option fee for that right. If the buyer walks, you keep the fee but you have lost the months. Ask which document is being put in front of you before the meeting, not during it.
