A common French real estate seller’s mistake is as follows:
Pricing based on opinion not facts
Why?
The initial sale price of a French property needs to be estimated very carefully and then a margin for negotiation added on top. This pricing need to be arrived at not by looking at what other properties for sale are priced at but by finding out from professionals like real estate agents and notaries what the actual sale price of comparable properties were.
Always ask the professional you are working with to show you the facts on how they arrived with the pricing.
Ask for a written and not verbal advice on value.
