You are in the right place to
Sell.
Property companies, family offices, property traders, companies, private individuals: we present your assets to investors who have already decided to buy, in complete confidentiality, and follow the sale through to completion.
Qualified buyers: defined project, financing capacity verified before the viewing
Confidentiality: targeted marketing, address withheld, non-disclosure agreement if required
Investor file: rents, yield, charges and structure presented for each asset
Net seller price preserved: fees paid by the buyer, sliding scale from 7% to 4%
Who is it for
You are disposing of an asset. We find its buyer.
Every seller has constraints: timing, confidentiality, tax, governance. We adapt the disposal to your situation rather than the other way round.
Property companies and institutions
Disposal of a unit, a building or an entire portfolio line. We organise the sale with the discretion and formality an investment committee expects.
Family offices and wealth holding companies
Reallocation of a property portfolio, exit from an asset that has become too burdensome to manage, preparation of a transfer: a controlled sale, without unnecessary public exposure.
Property traders and developers
Resale of renovated units or of a whole scheme, compliance with resale commitments and tax timetables. Our buyers purchase assets ready to operate.
SCIs, SASs and professionals
Disposal of the premises of a business, a commercial unit, a practice or a building held through a company, with your usual advisers and a valuation based on yield.
Private investors
You are selling a let property, a house share or an income-producing building: we present it as it is, with its rents, to investors who ask for nothing more.
Is your situation different?
Joint ownership, inheritance, exit of a partner, distressed asset: let's talk before you decide. An initial conversation is often enough to set the right strategy.
Why Covesta
Selling to investors changes everything
An investor does not buy on impulse: they buy rents, a yield and a clean file. That is precisely what we prepare.
Buyers who have already decided
Our investors are supported from start to finish: defined project, verified financing capacity, quick decisions. A let property or one needing works does not put them off; it is what they are looking for.
Confidentiality by default
Marketing under a non-disclosure agreement, address and name of the property withheld on request, listing restricted to identified members. Your asset is not exposed on mass-market portals.
A file that speaks to investors
Rents, charges, gross and net yield, cash flow, structure and tax: each property is presented with a complete analysis. The buyer understands the deal before the viewing.
A single point of contact through to completion
Valuation, offer, preliminary contract, the buyer's financing, notary: we keep to the timetable and keep you informed at every stage, without you having to chase.
The method
Six steps, a single point of contact
From the valuation to the signing at the notary, you know at all times where your sale stands.
- 01
Valuation and strategy
Analysis of the property, its market and its rents. Together we set the price, the scope (unit, building, portfolio) and the level of confidentiality.
- 02
Mandate and file
Sale mandate, with or without exclusivity. Collection of documents (title, surveys, leases, charges, general meeting minutes) and preparation of the investor file.
- 03
Targeted marketing
Presentation to investors whose project matches your asset, members' area, weekly newsletter and partner network. Off the portals if you wish.
- 04
Viewings and qualification
We organise the viewings, answer the questions of buyers and their advisers, and only present serious offers, backed by financing.
- 05
Negotiation and preliminary contract
We negotiate on your behalf, draft the offer, prepare the preliminary sale contract with the notary and follow the conditions precedent.
- 06
Deed of sale
Coordination with the notaries through to signing. If the buyer wishes, Covesta then takes over the property management: reassuring continuity for everyone.
The assets we sell
From a let studio to an entire portfolio
Our buyers purchase assets that perform, or will perform after works. The format matters less than the quality of the file.

Income-producing buildings
Single ownership, as a whole or unit by unit
Portfolios and asset lines
Several units, one or more cities
Premises and businesses
Hospitality, estates, residences, accommodation
Commercial premises and offices
Occupied, vacant, or to be converted into housing
Houses and assets to reposition

Sale fees
Paid by the buyer
You set your net seller price, we advertise it with fees included. Sliding scale calculated on the net seller price, minimum €6,000 incl. VAT.
| Up to €100,000 | 7% incl. VAT |
|---|---|
| From €100,001 to €150,000 | 6.5% incl. VAT |
| From €150,001 to €300,000 | 6% incl. VAT |
| From €300,001 to €600,000 | 5% incl. VAT |
| Above €600,000 | 4% incl. VAT |
No fees unless the sale completes. For a building, a portfolio or a disposal of premises and business, fees are agreed in the mandate, within the limits of this scale.
Frequently asked questions
What sellers ask us
Is an exclusive mandate required?+
No. We work with or without exclusivity. The mandate sets out the price, the term (three months irrevocable, then terminable), the level of confidentiality and the fees. Under a non-exclusive mandate you remain free to sell through other channels.
Can a property occupied by a tenant be sold?+
It is in fact our core market. A let property is presented with its lease, its rents and its payment history: for an investor, it is an asset that produces income from the day of completion. We organise viewings with due regard for the tenant.
How is confidentiality ensured?+
The property can be presented without an address or name, on a listing restricted to identified members and under a non-disclosure agreement for sensitive files. The documents are only sent to qualified buyers.
Who pays the fees?+
Under our sale mandates, the fees are paid by the buyer and included in the advertised price. You receive the agreed net seller price. The scale is sliding, from 7% to 4% depending on the price band, with a minimum of €6,000 incl. VAT.
Which documents should I prepare?+
Title deed, surveys, leases and amendments, tenancy schedule, property tax, charges and general meeting minutes for a unit in a co-owned building, invoices for recent works, and for a company: company registration extract, articles of association and the signatory's powers. We send you the list and check each document.
Can you handle a sale as a whole or a portfolio?+
Yes. We prepare a file for each asset and an overall summary, set up a data room, and present the transaction to buyers able to absorb it: structured investors, property companies, property traders. The sale can also take place unit by unit if that is more favourable.
