How to pick a property hunter in Vendée
- Check the carte T (French transaction licence). Without it, they can't legally trade.
- Pin down the brief in writing: zone, budget, criteria, deadline. The sharper, the faster.
- Ask their success rate and how many briefs they're juggling. Beyond 8 in parallel, you'll be on the back burner.
- Fees are usually 2 to 4 % of the purchase price. On bigger budgets, push for a flat fee.
- A solid hunter visits on your behalf and sends a written report before every joint visit.

How much does a property hunter cost?
Between 2 and 4 % of the purchase price, or a flat fee on larger budgets. Paid only when the final deed is signed.
Should I sign an exclusive mandate?
Almost always yes. Without exclusivity, the hunter won't put in the hours. Cap the term to 3 or 6 months.
What if I find the property myself?
Read the mandate. If the hunter had already identified the property or started the work, you owe the fee even if you spotted the listing.
Real edge over a regular agency?
The hunter works for you, not for the seller. They also tap off-market deals and negotiate the price in your favour.
