Deciphering the market with Paris Seine
Specializing in the market in the centre of Paris, the Paris Seine group founded in 1995 by Michel Kessler and Frederic Jaubert can lay claim to 30 years of experience in real estate, and has always advocated a narrative based on the truth. Frederic Jaubert shares his analysis of the current market for Parisian properties.
For Frederic Jaubert, there is only one way to gain the trust of his clients : by telling the TRUTH ! “We have won our reputation by telling it the way it is,” explains Frederic Jaubert. “Despite the seriousness of the crisis, 2024 was our best year since we created Paris Seine. Buyers and sellers listened to our advice and enabled us to work in all confidence. In prized arrondissements in Paris, when a property’s evaluation is correct, it sells within two months. If that does not happen, it is because the price is not in line with the market and we sometimes see properties on offer for years, which has no sense. Since September, approaches that were too optimistic on the part of certain estate agents, and systematic over-estimations, contributed towards setting a brake on the market’s recovery. The main asset of real estate in our neighbourhoods is its liquidity, which means being able to sell when required, and this, within a reasonable lapse of time. Before addressing marketing strategy and in order to make wise patrimonial choices, a correct evaluation is essential. In the capital’s central arrondissements, in whatever period, sales flow smoothly.
After starting out in communication and finance, Frédéric Jaubert turned his attention to real estate and, together with Michel Kessler, founded the Paris Seine group which currently has five agencies in Paris, three in the 6th arrondissement.

Our clientele, which is very wide, is comprised of various profiles : French, ex-pats, foreign buyers, in search of a pied-a`-terre or year-round accommodation, which has always secured and guaranteed this dynamic activity. The market in Paris always floats, it touched bottom in 2023 and is gradually picking up. In terms of constraints and taxation, we are still accumulating bad news, which makes rental investors flee the scene. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find an apartment of quality to rent in Paris. Only a lease under civil law, which regulates relationships between landlord and tenant, still retains any interest for landlords. In fact, by allowing exemption from rent control, it makes it possible to meet the needs of our international clientele (for second residences), and multinational firms wanting to accommodate their senior executives in comfortable apartments or private mansions.”
