Buying and Investing in New York with Promest Realty
Buying an apartment in New York means understanding the property, the building and the steps involved in each purchase.
Founded by Christophe Bourreau, Promest Realty supports a primarily international clientele with their real estate projects in New York. Whether you are looking for a primary residence, a pied-à-terre or an investment property, we help you define your search and guide you through to the final signing, known as the closing.
A property search tailored to your goals
Together, we define your budget, preferred neighborhoods, apartment type and intended use. We then select properties that match your criteria and arrange viewings.
Our support includes negotiation and coordination throughout the purchase, working with your attorney, your bank and the other professionals involved.
As a licensed New York State real estate broker, we have access to nearly all properties available for sale!
Preparing to buy property in New York
Where should you start?
Clarify your total budget (purchase price plus closing costs), your timeline and how you intend to use the property. An initial conversation with our team helps structure your search and identify the points that need further attention.
What should you check before choosing an apartment?
The assessment covers both the apartment and the building: ongoing charges, available documents, occupancy conditions and rental rules. Your attorney handles the legal due diligence specific to the purchase.
How long does it take to buy?
The timeline depends on the property type, financing and required approvals. We help you anticipate the main steps for the property you select. A condo purchase can be completed in four to six weeks. If you plan to obtain a U.S. mortgage, it is prudent to allow at least four additional weeks.
Can you prepare your purchase from abroad?
YES! You can start by defining your criteria with our team and preparing a selection of properties before your trip. Viewings and the purchase process are then organized around your circumstances.
Buying property in the United States does not require you to travel there or hold a visa!
