For sale by owner: what are the true risks?

Extract: Selling your flat yourself in Massy, Palaiseau or Chilly-Mazarin means facing substantial financial and legal challenges that only a seasoned local professional can truly manage.

"Going solo for your property sale often leads to more losses than gains, in time, money and peace of mind."

The hidden risks of DIY property sales

Agency fees might seem high, yet selling alone exposes you to valuation errors, subpar offers, and chaotic scheduling. In Massy and surroundings, a small valuation mistake can erase your expected savings several times over. Without a skilled negotiator, you might settle for a lower price or miss key contractual protections.

Legal and paperwork headaches

Handling the pile of required documents, strict diagnostics and legal deadlines is demanding—and the smallest misstep can jeopardise your transaction or cause delays.
