Safe neighborhood and close to public transportation. Year of construction and quality of finishes and amenities. Average annual maintenance cost. The best resale neighborhoods are : Saint-Jean-Cap-Ferrat, Cap d’Antibes, Cannes Croisette, Nice Promenade des Anglais, as well as Monaco neighborhoods : Beaulieu, Eze, Cap d'Ail, Roquebrune-Cap-Martin.

Yes, it is. Haggling the price is quite common in real estate negotiations. Usually, your real estate agent knows the buyer's real reasons of sale decision. It's often possible to start negotiating while viewing the property. Your real estate professional will help you draft the Offre d’achat and negotiate on your behalf with the seller. The seller can accept your offer or make a counteroffer until a common price is set.

The DPE is a real estate diagnosis that is mandatory for all properties for sale. The seller must be able to provide it before signing a purchase agreement - Compromis de vente. The DPE makes it possible to know the energy consumption and CO2 emissions of the property and includes the following data:

• Floor area (Loi Carrez) — for apartments.
• Technical diagnoses (lead, asbestos, termites, etc.).
• Electrical and gas installations.
• Heat loss, insulation performance, renewable energy production systems, if any.
• Risk of seismic movement or other natural disaster.
• Septic tank installation – for houses.
