Paris, France

"After a year of unfruitful searching for an apartment, I was very discouraged, when a friend told me about the concept of property hunter that he had discovered on the program Zone Interdite on M6.  I decided to call an apartment hunter, and met Christine Pelosse.  Having little time for visits, and very precise specifications, I could no longer allow myself to visit apartments that did not absolutely correspond to my desires.  After visiting only 2 apartments with Christine Pelosse, I bought one in the 9th arrondisement that corresponded exactly to my expectations, and in addition was at a lower price than the budget we had fixed together!  Christine put me in touch with a general contractor, who knew how to exploit the potential of this apartment.  From my experience with Homelike Home, I retain two paramount points:  the relationship of trust that was established, and especially the impression that they wanted me to find the product that suited me 100%, without pressure or stress."
