Solutions en copropriété

About us

Co-ownership (“copropriété”), management companies (“syndic”), service charges, AGMs… These are terms most people have heard before, and being honest, they often come with their fair share of frustration!

Between misunderstandings, anxieties, information overload, and complex regulations, one-third of co-owners admit the rules governing co-ownership are challenging to navigate¹. And let’s not forget, this concerns their property – one of their most significant assets.

Owning a property in a co-ownership scheme (whether an apartment, house, commercial premises, or even a garage) is rarely simple. Being part of a community of co-owners, with its associated rights and obligations, entails navigating day-to-day events and unexpected situations. Proper management is essential to save time, money, and unnecessary stress.

Having access to an independent, trustworthy, and specialised professional, when needed and without breaking the bank, while retaining full control of your property’s management is the ideal balance.

You’re in the right place! At PAUL & CLARKE Consultants, we will support, assist, or represent you on specific issues and procedures related to your property under the co-ownership scheme.

We hold professional certification and are backed by professional indemnity insurance and a financial guarantee. We operate with integrity, transparency, rigour, and efficiency.
