Whether they relate to legal, tax, planning or administrative matters, you doubtless have a great many questions. We will provide clear and accurate answers.

Step 3: Drawing up the mandate

We draw up a clear mandate to sell in compliance with the legislation in force.

Why the preference for an exclusive right to sell?

Only an exclusive mandate gives you a personalised relationship with your estate agent, in line with your expectations.

For us, it provides assurance that all our knowledge, time and energy are applied to a single priority – successful and quick completion of your sale plan for the best price!

SPÉCIALIMMO pulls together, as a priority, all promotional and advertising methods on your behalf.
