No not at all, it's legal.

constructive criticism noted!

I love my pooch, he's my little buddy.

haha not sure I understand completely ... is it the look?

@@RobertTycenHauserYou look just like Leo from that movie. Great look bro! Good luck with your business.

@@kharris0465 Thank you kindly! I'll take that as a great compliment. :-)

HaHA I do so love my Pookie as well.

Thank you so much for your kind words!! It hasn't been an easy path necessarily but I do love Paris and the products can really be amazing.

;-) Thank you for your kind words much appreciated!

Thank you so much!! It's a pretty nice place. I'm about to get an offer or two it seems so crossing my fingers. OH I DO love my dog, he's my buddy, my good little guy.

haha yes you got that right!! That's exactly it.

Thank you so much!! That is so kind. I am going to start a series on the 20 "arrondissements" or districts of Paris soon. :-) Stay tuned

Why thank you for your kind words.

I do! www.seloger.com/annonces/achat-de-prestige/appartement/paris-4eme-75/saint-merri/230618127.htm

Done!! Just pay with your card and come move in!

Right? haha. It's way out of my price range as well. Cool place.

SOOO much better! Thank you for your comments.

I really don't think a million would be necessary. It's in good condition: roof, plumbing, electrical. It would mainly entail taking out all the extra kitchens and making one larger kitchen I think.

... well, and as to the rest, I suppose inequality has existed since the beginning of civilization, even before I suppose? I personally don't have the money to buy that house. I am just working myself. I hope you enjoyed the video and will continue to watch.

Wow thank you so much for your kind words. How funny, we were living just blocks from each other in the early 90's!! small world. I suppose you have been back since and seen how it has evolved, actually become gentrified with all that's good and not so positive about it... cleaner, but less diversity and just regular shops. It's still beautiful and historical of course. If we wanted to find the equivalent now it's more around the 10th, rue St Denis / rue du Paradis and all that.

Wow thank you so so much for the positive feedback!

😅

Hello! We are just under market value in fact for the Marais. 🙂 We are at 17.000€/m2. But... I'm always open to an offer!

@roberttycenparisproperties4668 I never knew it was that much in the marais. I always thought Paris in global was between 10k-13k€ at worst removing exceptions. Thank you for your answer, but I'm not that rich yet ahah

@@colonelmoustache haha nor am I unfortunately. For the current market it might be slightly too high however and am going to talk to the owner about lowering the price.

He is definitely out of practice, his last video was posted three years ago, so this was his "where I have been" video in addition to (sort of) showing a home for sale.

edit: I went back to check some of his old videos, and this is actually his style - chatting about the neighbourhood (which is good), and then very briefly skimming over the actual property, camera focused on himself, skipping over (often not even showing) the details of the property. ...and not including a link to his website should one actually be seriously interested in the property.

Yes that's an absolute possiblilty!

Oh if only the walls could talk to us we would have fodder for novels!

Sadly, that means you would be uncomfortable living in any major city anywhere. Agreed about the stairs, it seems the most charming and desirable in-town homes in European cities have many stairs - perhaps that is why Europeans tend to age very well and stay active well into their advanced years. We Americans have been physically weakened by our reliance on cars and large, often single story homes.

Yes there are quite a bit of stairs so not suited for everyone. The bars are on the ground floor in fact and that would be subject of a different sale. I am selling the top three floors, so American 2nd/3rd/4th, or French 1st/ 2nd/ 3rd.

Less than it used to be, which often happens with gentrification ...

It is a pretty cool place, 600 years of history. Thank you for the comment.

Thank you for the positive feedback!!

Thank you for the comments!! In fact one mustn't confound City living and living outside a city. France abounds with large open spaces and beautiful countryside. It also abounds with beautiful country houses. What you are seeing here is a city dwelling. I invite you also to look at another video, Paris is MUCH cheaper than any other international cities like it, and I take New York and London as examples. I talk about that in my "Is France a good investment?" video.

Who loves to move to the US? Not the Europeans for sure. Paris isn't a continent, that's one of the most densed cities in the world and that video is in one of the most densed neighbourhoods. People who want more space all they have to do is to go live a 15 min train ride away from there or beyond and that's where 80% of the Parisians live. Paris isn't an expensive city and definitely not in terms of housing but don't you worry, the Parisians earn enough to live there properly. So much we can say about the people in NYC, LA, San Francisco.... What space do they have in those cities? Where the cost of living is way more expensive than in Paris. Oh? And so you know the continents welcoming the most immigrants are Europe, Asia then North America in that particular order.

@adela Is there really a great influx into the US of French people? Mostly, the French I've met adore their country and their culture and are very happy to live in France. Food for one is a major source of cultural pride. France has huge underpopulated areas if people want space and flora and fauna. It is a stunningly beautiful and varied country. Compared to New York / London prices, Paris is not too bad although it is still very expensive. But the Marais is a very exclusive place to live, very beautiful. It is central and convenient to whatever you could wish for.

@barbarajones9385 Paris isn't a very expensive place to live for the locals. They earn adapted salaries, the consumer goods and services prices are the same as nationwide. That's the place in France where the inhabitants have the highest purchasing power despite being the most expensive area in France. Only real estate is expensive if one wants to buy but that's already twice or thrice less expensive than in similar cities all around the world. Those who rent, the majority of the Parisians, have capped rent, social housing (25% of the housing park) and can have cheap housing linked to their work. Not to mention housing pension for those with lowest income. As a result Paris is a city populated mostly by young people. However people don't have everything they need. They don't have the space and quality of life they wish. That's why later, when having a family, most prefer to move out to get a better standard of living. Paris is good for single people or couples. With one child that's already more complicated than elsewhere and with more it's not worth it to stay. Le Marais isn't an exclusive place at all. Not long ago that was a place for bobos and it's the gay people town. Also the youth isn't too attracted by the old apartments, they prefer modern comfort. Foreigners love the quaintness and invest in real estate for speculation. With tourism which keeps increasing there are a lot of Air bnb and the quality of life decreased for the locals actually living there so they are moving out. Mostly the noise is a big issue and it also created a real estate bubble. Because of the housing laws there aren't exclusive areas in Paris. Everyone lives everywhere. You can have exclusive enclaves in bits of the 1st, 6th, 7th, 8th and 16th arrondissements. But we're talking residences here not entire neighbourhoods.

haha that it would!

Unfortunately I don't think so...Maybe I should research that out of curiosity.

@@roberttycenparisproperties4668 He lived in one very similar in the Marais. I visited in the mid-1980s

2.473.000€

Merci beaucoup!!

effectivement. Je pense qu'il y a une possibilité

@@roberttycenparisproperties4668 how can i contact you ?

Merci!

Merci!

She's a beaut!!

Really? I believe he lives in Paris and not some cookie cutter small town where everyone has to conform to a certain look! Get a life please.

@ ok, start wearing your belt the same way.

No elevator unfortunately. The stairs aren't bad... :-)

Elevator 🤣 Mary Ann from Chicago. This house needs definitely another American owner.

In order to install an elevator in a house like this you would destroy the house. It’s not built for such things. You’d not only lose space but you’d seriously compromise the house’s structural integrity

It is a wonderful place and like I said in the video it was also my first home! Many years ago...

haha Je parle en anglais dans la video. Vous n'avez même pas regardé 10 seconds alors!

Not all Americans are loud, rude, xenophobic or culturally clueless. Lots of us, yes, but not all.

American not american, have some respect

This is France at it's best. Even if you learn the language as a visitor and you do your best, it's never enough. Imagine living there. If you wanna go out for dinner, order something, they gonna throw your food from far away near your table and you can pick it up from the floor and than they say, you have no culture. 😂

It is me again. You are from Ireland. After all these years, a beginner mistake. Shame on me and sorry for all the French people I might have hurt, but every comment is good for the channel. 😬

haha c'est vrai!! tous les quartiers sont chic !

It would be great to be transformed back into a family house I agree. It's not too poorly done in this case however. I see what you mean about cutting places up and sometimes it is a massacre. Here it's done respectfully.

Merci beaucoup, je trouve aussi. :-) Merci d'être venu regarder.
