Having your property appraised isn’t always free, unless it’s online. This evaluation will be approximate, but already sufficient to have an idea of its amount for sale, to register on its tax sheet or register in its global heritage.
Summary
Anonymity
At first, we would like to take some information anonymously so as not to publicize the fact that we want to have our property estimated. An estimate may be requested in order to complete the property tax sheet, and not in order to resell our property. In this case, there is no need to go into details, a simple overall estimate is sufficient: The price per m² in such a district, in such a city for such type of accommodation, is sufficient.
When we want to resell our property, there is no longer any question of anonymity, the estimate will have to take into account many details including the exact address of the accommodation and our contact details for a personalized response. An agent will come on site to check the exact condition of the premises.

- The sun costs more in the South where the heating savings are undeniable.
- Border municipalities of Switzerland, of Germany, make pay the proximity of the country in which the workers earn more than in France.
