Market Guide

Once the requirements are established, the search can be focused on properties and locations that match the brief. Avantgarde draws on extensive local knowledge, market expertise and access to exceptional residences to put together a carefully considered shortlist of suitable opportunities.

Our role is to make the search efficient and enjoyable, respecting your time and making the process as seamless as possible. From the initial selection through to the final viewing, we guide the process with discretion, sensitivity and care.

Private viewings provide the opportunity to experience each residence — the architecture and layout, the character and feeling of the home. The finest distinctions are often felt rather than seen — in the quality of the light, the sense of space, the flow of the residence and its relationship with the surroundings.

Once the right residence has been identified, the process moves to the offer and negotiation stage. Avantgarde manages communication between buyer and seller, presenting the offer and negotiating the principal terms with professionalism and careful attention to our clients’ priorities.

Once terms have been agreed, the conditions and any reservations or conditions precedent are formally documented before the transaction progresses towards contract. Throughout this stage, we remain closely involved, coordinating with the relevant parties, keeping communication streamlined and ensuring that the process moves forward smoothly and efficiently.

Once the principal terms have been agreed, the legal and contractual aspects of the purchase are addressed. The necessary due diligence is carried out to formally verify the property, ownership, planning and any relevant obligations, while the appropriate contracts and documentation are prepared.

Avantgarde works closely with your legal and professional advisers throughout this stage, facilitating the flow of information between all parties and helping them work together efficiently, while minimizing the administrative burden for our clients. We help keep the process organized and ensure that all relevant matters can be properly addressed, allowing the transaction to proceed smoothly to completion.

The final stage is completion of the purchase before a notary, where the final documents are signed, the remaining balance and applicable costs are settled, and the transaction proceeds to registration in the relevant land register.

The new ownership is formally recorded and the keys are handed over. Avantgarde remains available to assist with final arrangements and practical matters, helping ensure a smooth transition into the new home.
