    Despite being a buyer (not the one who pays their fees) they always treated me as their client by being proactive and genuinely concerned with meeting my needs. Marc helped us find the apartment of our dreams and we couldn’t be happier with the perfection of the transaction.

    Super professional and super good team, I cannot recommend them highly enough. They are very well connected, very reliable and speak perfect English. Without their experience, it would have been a total nightmare trying to buy my first apartment in a foreign country. They really went further.
