It’s not a bad idea to sell a property when you have a problem to solve or a project to complete. It’s not as easy to sell a property when its value is high.
To succeed, and avoid being deceived by crooked people, you must seek the services of a real estate agent.
A real real estate agent is one who is licensed by the state and holds a professional license. A real real estate agent is a professional, who can be located, and who has offices.
We strongly advise you against dealing with fake real estate agents and with canvassers who hang around intersections.
The sale of built and unbuilt properties is a real estate transaction that falls under the responsibility of the real estate agent. The real estate agent first estimates the market value of your property, a value they do not impose. Once an agreement has been reached, he conducts an ongoing and intelligent search for potential buyers and conducts targeted and effective advertising. He accompanies you to the notary to conclude the transaction by signing the deed of sale.
Would you like to entrust us with the sale of your property? We will ask you to come to our agency to fill out a form mandating us to find a buyer or sell your property.
If you are a discreet individual, a senior, or a disabled person, we can come to you and meet with you with these forms, which you will need to complete.
If you live outside the city of Yaoundé or outside Cameroon, we will ask you to call or write to us so that we can suggest a procedure to follow.
We always ask clients who have a property to sell to bring or send us documents proving that the property belongs to them or to a relative. We also request a visit to the premises. In the event that the seller or buyer is unable to complete a transaction, the law allows the real estate agent to act in place of their client. The client must first provide the real estate agent with a notarized mandate (legalized by a notary), authorizing them to sell or buy on their client’s behalf. The transfer of funds or receipt of funds is done according to the client’s instructions.
We can provide a free appraisal of the market value of your property. However, a technical appraisal, which is much more complicated, will require a fee. The amount of the fee will depend on the size and quality of the property.
All deeds of sale of built or unbuilt real estate through us are made before a notary.
Clients requesting our services or those of a licensed real estate agent should be aware that they will have to open a file, the amount of which is legally set at twenty-five thousand (25,000) CFA francs. Some real estate agents accept a minimum of ten thousand (10,000) CFA francs.
Real estate agents earn their living from commissions; therefore, any service provided through us must be paid for.
Real estate agents are paid by commission. The percentage of this commission is legally set and ranges between eight percent and four percent (8% and 4%) of the transaction amount, excluding taxes. Including taxes, this percentage ranges between ten percent and five percent
(10% and 5%) including taxes.
