“I won't sell until I've found my next property”.

That's the phrase that rings in the ears of every good real estate agent. Because while 8 out of ten sales are made with a view to buying again, few owners take the risk of selling their property without having found THE ideal property and the financing to match. Especially in today's tight property market,

A costly constraint stalling the real estate market

While waiting for their owners to make the long-awaited purchase, the available properties remain on hold, invisible to the French and impossible to find on traditional platforms such as Immoscout24, Homegate or Comparis.

So fewer properties are available for sale, and fewer owners are finding what they're looking for. And the less happy owners are, the fewer properties are available in return...

It's a never-ending loop that benefits no one, except perhaps the banks, who use costly bridging loans to finance the purchase of a property when the sale has not yet taken place.

Real estate exchange, the solution to freeing up the market

Until now, the only solution offered by real estate professionals was the 6-month or one-year long sale. This allows the harried real estate agent to conclude the deal by spreading the risk over time, without, however, eliminating that risk once and for all.

Enshrined in the law, property exchange enables each owner to acquire the deed to a property from a third party and pass on his or her deed in return, all at the same time.

This frees up supply and gives access to exclusive properties, while allowing owners to save on notary fees and avoid high broker commissions. The icing on the cake is the disappearance of the bridging loan, and the complicated procedures it can entail!

That's why IMMOSWITCH makes real estate exchange accessible to all homeowners, thanks to its secure real estate dating platform. On IMMOSWITCH, everyone can discover exclusive properties, send in their favorites, and when the interest is mutual, the exchange becomes possible. 

A great way for any homeowner to rediscover the pleasure of making a good deal.
