About Belmaye

The person who answers when you call about your home.

Belmaye exists for one reason: owners who live abroad deserve someone in Paris who knows real estate, represents only them and tells them the truth about their property.

The founder

Twenty years on the investor’s side of the table.

Laurent Fleury has worked in real estate since 2003. He has advised private and institutional investors on their acquisitions and investment decisions: analysing buildings, reading the documents, negotiating, and following assets once bought. He holds a DEA (postgraduate degree) in Private Law.

Over the years, people who owned a home in Paris but lived elsewhere kept asking him the same questions. Who can I trust with the keys? Who will tell me if the works are done properly? Who will read the building’s minutes and explain what they mean for me?

Belmaye is his answer: the same rigour he applied for investors, applied to your home, with a personal relationship instead of an institution.

“When you are thousands of miles away, you should still know what is happening in your home, and who is looking after your interests.”

Behind the scenes

Small on purpose.

You deal with Laurent directly. When a job needs a specialist (a plumber, an architect, a notary, a tax adviser), Belmaye coordinates independent professionals chosen for that assignment, and you see their quotes and invoices.

Belmaye works from the 7th arrondissement. Laurent lives in Paris with his three Labradors, which is one reason he understands what it means to leave a home in someone else’s care.
