The Home Select buyer’s agents

An engineer by training, then an executive in a large corporation, client relations have always been the structuring element of my professional experiences. I decided to develop my own business offering services with the level of excellence that matches my standards. Having been a client of real estate services many times (primary residence purchases, long-term wealth purchases), I often realized that the quality of service I expected was not always delivered. "The quality of service I expected was not always delivered. I created Home Select to change that." Home Select, a property hunter, was founded in Paris in 2011 by Jean Mascla. Before taking on its development full time, I covered central Paris and western Paris as a property hunter. Fifteen years on, Home Select brings together 16 property hunters, all independent agents, and has guided more than 1,200 buyers. Home Select specialises in the search for prestige apartments and homes in Paris, and works for the buyer only: defining the brief, shortlisting, viewings, negotiation and follow-up through to signing at the notaire. I now devote myself to that development, with a team that shares these standards of high-quality service, in a real estate sector that has begun to transform.

A graduate of the European Business School in Paris, Catherine lived in the United States and Belgium for 12 years. An extraordinary family experience, rich in encounters and adventures, followed by a return to Paris where the difficulty of finding housing led her to join Home Select, having used property hunting services herself during her years abroad. After more than 12 years at Home Select, Catherine has found over 120 properties for her clients. Her goal is always to create a relationship based on trust and fluid communication. "I share all the detailed elements of my work with you. I am at your service in complete transparency. My listening skills, rigor, and perseverance are the keys to my success."

With over 10 years of experience in human resources consulting, Gwénaëlle then moved into the art gallery world and real estate advisory, enriching her market knowledge and client approach.

Tony arrived in Paris more than twenty-five years ago to study, and never left: he remains deeply attached to the city. He now knows Paris and its inner suburbs intimately, with particular expertise in the Hauts-de-Seine. Having worked professionally in Brazil, he also guides Portuguese-speaking buyers, Brazilian clients in particular, through their purchase in Paris. His career was built around property and wealth management. After a first experience in new-build real estate, he spent around ten years in wealth management, advising many clients on their wealth decisions. That double skill set, financial and property-based, led him naturally to become a property hunter, a role he has held with some ten years of overall experience behind him. His added value rests first of all on rigorous property selection. After every viewing he studies the building management in depth, along with the technical and energy surveys, so that nothing is left open: the condition of the building, what the surveys really cover, the potential for improvement. His detailed knowledge of construction lets him cost the works and show you concretely what that potential is worth, so you can commit with full knowledge of the facts. Whether you are looking for your main home or a long-term wealth purchase, Tony brings you a fine-grained knowledge of the Paris and Ile-de-France market, together with a rigorous financial and technical approach to help you make the best choices.
