Selling your property in twenty-four hours or forty-eight hours after a single visit, it is the dream of any owner wishing to give in a good. Today it is possible. To date, four platforms have specialized in so-called “instant” real estate sale: Dili, Homeloop, Vendez-Vetre-Maison and Zefir. For all, the course of this express transaction takes place in four stages.

First, the owner answers a detailed questionnaire online concerning the house to give in. Then, in the twenty-four to forty-eight hours, he receives an indicative purchase offer online. If this first estimate is suitable, a physical appointment is set one or two days later with a real estate expert dispatched by the site. The latter is responsible for visiting the home and assessing the general condition of the building and the common areas. This passage allows if necessary to refine the estimated price.

The next day, a firm and final proposal arrives by e-mail. If the latter is not suitable, the process stops there and that will have cost nothing. On the other hand, if this price does the trick, the offer is to be validated electronically knowing that it is only valid for a few days. In the process, an appointment is organized to sign the compromise or the promise to sell. “By putting these stages end to end, between the first contact and the first signature, it flows for a week,” sums up Rémy Fabre, co -founder of Zefir.

In addition to playing the card of simplicity and speed, these actors highlight the certain side of the transaction. This cash paying professional, we avoid the conditioning loking condition box.

In addition, he does not benefit from the legal withdrawal period of ten days from the date of signature of the compromise. This is precisely what happened to Bastien R. “The person who had to buy my house made me miss six days after the signature. I only had four days left to find another, otherwise the good that I wanted to buy was going under the nose. Thanks to this quick solution, my project was carried out, “he says.

François found this very practical solution “during COVID-19 and confinement period where [they] decided to change their lifestyle”. Before signing the authentic act in the notary, it will be necessary to wait for the related legal deadlines necessary for all changes of property, that is between one and two months. “The shortest delay recorded was thirty-two days all inclusive,” said Olivier Colcombet, president of Digit Re, of which Dili is the subsidiary.
