TRACFIN — Anti-Money Laundering

Professionals in the real estate sector must comply with obligations of vigilance as set out within the framework of the regulations of the French financial intelligence service (TRACFIN). We must take measures to ensure that our clients are properly identified, and to ensure that transactions are carried out in compliance with anti-money laundering rules. We must collect all information relating to the purpose and nature of the operation to be carried out and all elements will allow us to have an extensive knowledge of the client.

As such, and before signing any contractual documents, you will be asked to provide certain information as well as the documents below:

For our buyer clients:

• Proof of identity
• Recent proof of address
• Information regarding your income, wealth and source of funds
• If the buyer is a company: a recent registration document and articles of association

For our vendors:

• Proof of identity
• Recent proof of address
• Proof of ownership
• Latest 'avis de taxe foncière'
• If the vendor is a company: a recent registration document and articles of association

We thank you for your cooperation.
