Cabinet IGC - Conseil en gestion de patrimoine

Anyone appointing a property developer or buying a new-build apartment in Paris should first clarify the provider’s role. Property development, acting as the developer selling a project, and arranging purchases from third-party developers are different services. Cabinet IGC’s website focuses on selecting new-build properties and providing related wealth advice. Prospective clients should therefore establish which tasks the firm handles itself and which remain with the developer or other parties.

Budget, location, apartment size, intended use and the preferred handover date are important starting points. Where a provider offers access to a large inventory, buyers should ask how developments are selected and compared. Relevant checks include specifications, construction progress, expected running costs and responsibility for delays or defects. The precise scope of support through to handover should also be documented.

The statement “no agency fees” is not a substitute for a complete cost breakdown. Buyers should ask about additional acquisition, financing and any advisory costs, as well as how the intermediary is paid.

Because Cabinet IGC combines property and wealth advice, investment horizon, liquidity needs and risk tolerance should be considered together. Rental investments also require realistic assumptions about rental income, vacancy and ongoing expenses. For wealth structuring or transfer planning, clients should clarify the scope of advice, remuneration and involvement of other specialists in advance. These points provide general guidance rather than individual legal or tax advice.
