French real estate advertisement what does agence s’abstenir merci mean?

esrea france

Have you ever read in a French real estate advertisement ‘agence s’abstenir merci’ and wondered what it means?

‘agence s’abstenir merci’ is a polite way for a French real estate owner to say “no real estate agents please’. Their intention is to sell their property by themselves to a French property buyer. This may be because they have had a bad experience with French real estate agents. However, whatever the reason is, it does not mean that the property is for sale at a price cheaper than with an agency. You need to make sure if you decide that you are going to visit a property for sale by an owner that the property is correctly priced. How can a person who does not work in real estate know market values? This is an important question for you to think about.

Ask your English speaking French real estate agent to contact the owner on your behalf to see if they can find out how the owner came up with the price.
