PROPERTY SEARCH

Property search for expats: buy a profitable property from a distance

Finding a profitable property from abroad is a real challenge : unreliable listings, complicated viewings, good deals that go fast. Our property search service for expats and non-residents relies on the IPE method and a network of local experts to target, analyse and secure the best opportunities, without you travelling.

The essentials

  • The search team suggests profitable properties, including off-market ones: you choose the city and the property, and your coach reviews the properties with you one by one.
  • You spot properties through your alerts, the network’s agents and the Edgar app; each property is scrutinised: price per m² compared, estimated works, yield.
  • For viewings, a relative, a local contact or the agent’s video takes over.
  • You are put in touch with the network (agents, banks, notaries, tradespeople), which you keep after the purchase.

Our mission

A property hunter who searches as if for themselves, but with your criteria.

No need to come to France to multiply viewings. We support you in applying the IPE method: you spot the properties, your coach analyses them with you one by one, and a relative, a local contact or the agent’s video takes over for the viewings. The whole journey is detailed in our guide to investing in France from abroad.

You are trained, guided and challenged, with the support of our network of local experts, to analyse the right opportunities and avoid mistakes.

Very satisfied with my experience with IPE (Immo Pour Expat). Communication is excellent, exchanges are smooth and I really feel supported throughout the project. Above all, I have the feeling that we are working as a team, with a good understanding of the goals and a genuine desire to move forward together. It is very welcome to be able to count on a team that is available, attentive and involved. I highly recommend IPE!

When you are an expat, it is hard to know where to start, especially remotely, with no long-term visibility. Thanks to ImmoPourExpat, all our questions finally get clear answers, step by step. Frédéric is extremely available and a precious help at every moment of the journey. With my partner, we had never made so much progress nor passed so many stages. Essential support for investing from abroad. I highly recommend it!

I joined ImmoPourExpat a few months ago and I am more than satisfied. As an expat, the banks were asking me for a 30% down payment. Thanks to Frédéric’s advice and their network, I got the same terms as a French resident. The support programme is extremely comprehensive: taxation, estimating renovation works, remote management… it is all there. And above all, Frédéric and his team are always available and responsive. I recommend it 1000% to all expats who want to invest with peace of mind in France.

I joined ImmoPourExpat in April 2024. No miracle, just a clear strategy, practical steps to follow, and real support. The result: property found in June, offer accepted in July, and financing with a 2.9% down payment for a €400,000 project. Frédéric, Baptiste and the team take the time for each member. The community is active, caring, and full of useful advice. Rare, serious and highly effective support for investing as an expat. Looking forward to the next project!

I joined ImmoPourExpat in January 2025, and it is by far the best support programme I have found as a non-resident. The weekly live workshops let you talk directly with Frédéric and his team, and even when you cannot attend, you receive clear, personalised answers, often by video. You never feel alone. The team is extremely responsive, expert, and always there to unblock a situation, point you to the right contacts and move the project forward. It is a real accelerator. If you are ready to get involved, you will have all the cards in hand to succeed with your property investment in France.

From sourcing the property, to negotiating the purchase price, through to managing the renovation works and the teams, they literally took care of the essentials and enabled me to make happen a project that I could never have carried out alone. I am a Marketing Director in the United States, and my schedule leaves very little room; especially for a project of this scale. If you are in a similar situation, I highly recommend the services and support offered by IPE!

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW

We answer your questions

Answers to the questions we are asked most often before searching for a property in France from abroad.

Talk to an expert
Does ImmoPourExpat look for the property for me?

Partly: the team searches for and suggests profitable properties, including off-market ones, and teaches you to search yourself. You choose the city and the property: your coach reviews the properties with you one by one, in workshops or by message, and you are put in touch with our network (agents, banks, notaries, tradespeople), which you keep after the purchase.

How do you view a property without being in France?

A relative, a local contact or the agent’s video takes over when you cannot come. Clément, who lives in Singapore, had his sister and an IPE contact show his two studios near La Défense.

How do you choose the city to invest in?

Many expats who left long ago no longer know where to invest. In the first weeks, you set your goals in figures and your rental strategy, then you carry out the market study of your city using the template provided. Our city pages show the projects already carried out and the local market figures.

Can I choose the type of property?

Yes. Furnished studio, house share, split into several homes, apartment building, short-term rental: the type of property follows from the rental strategy you define at the outset, depending on your budget and your goals.

How do you spot the good properties?

You set up your alerts, you call the agents and you use the Edgar app to spot and analyse properties. Every property is put through its paces: price per m² compared with properties in the area, estimated renovation works, yield. You make an offer when the numbers hold up.

How long does it take to find a property?

It depends on your city, your application and the time you devote to it. Marie-Lou (Canada) found her property 17 days after joining the support programme; for other members, it took one to two and a half months. There is no guaranteed timeframe.

Do you have to come to France to buy?

It is not compulsory. Several members bought without viewing the property themselves, thanks to a relative or the agent’s video, and signed at the notary’s office by video call or by proxy. The team helps you review every document: offer, preliminary agreement, then deed. Other members preferred to take advantage of a trip to view properties or meet their bank.

What happens once the property is found?

You negotiate with arguments drawn from the price history and quotes, then you make an offer using the templates from the training. Then come the financing, the deed, the renovation works with the network’s tradespeople and the letting.
