6 good reasons why future buyers prefer to go through a

Knowing the local market to perfection, your real estate agent will present you with a realistic selection of properties, that is to say compatible with your budget. Properties that his expertise has enabled him to value at the right price, no more and no less. It is the assurance of not approaching a possible negotiation on the basis of an abnormally high price.
