- Pre-enrollment in international schools usually dictates the calendar of the rest of the relocation.
- Our 'Concierge' unit handles logistics so you can focus on the operational transition of your business.
The Soft-Landing Challenge
Relocating a primary residence, along with a Family Office structure or a company’s headquarters, is an operation of high logistical complexity. The margin for error must be zero. Real Estate acts not only as a Property Finder but as a local Operations Director coordinating all involved actors.
Axis 1: The Residential Decision
The long-term prime rental market is extremely limited. Many families decide to rent temporarily while executing a major acquisition. For this, relying on the Off-Market is vital. We validate distances to schools, neighborhood security, and privacy before showing options.
Axis 2: Legal and Migratory Structure
For non-EU clients (UK, USA, Middle East), synchronization is critical. The signing of a property’s deposit agreement (arras) can and should be used as a vector for the immediate initiation of residency files. For EU profiles, the key lies in the fiscal planning of the change in tax residency.
Axis 3: Family Setup and Concierge
A successful relocation is one the family perceives as fluid. This includes:
- Interviews and securing spots in educational institutions (e.g., King’s College, European School, Lycée Français).
- Preventive hiring of Household Staff (domestic staff with verified references).
- Legal importation of high-end vehicles.
- Contracting comprehensive private medical insurance.
We assign a dedicated Relocation Manager to your family three months prior to the date of your arrival flight.
