    3ème, Arts & Métiers/Rambuteau, Marais Nord, Marais

    A CRITICAL WARNING TO ANY CURRENT OR FUTURE CLIENTS OF ANDY / A1 REAL ESTATE:…read moreBefore signing anything, require full written disclosure of every legal and tax classification related to your rental. Had we been given accurate and complete information at the outset, we would never have rented from him or his agency. Please protect yourself -- the issues we encountered were serious, costly, and entirely avoidable with proper transparency. Major Problems We Experienced -- With Serious Financial Consequences: * We were hit with a large, unexpected French residence tax (Taxe d'Habitation) nearly a year after moving out -- a tax burden we were never told could fall on us. * We were designated as the responsible occupant for this tax without any disclosure, written or verbal. * At the last minute, rent payments were suddenly requested to be sent to a Belgian bank account, something never disclosed upfront, which creates documentation complications and is viewed unfavorably by French tax authorities. Why This Happened (None of This Was Disclosed Upfront): * The property was treated as a secondary residence, but this was never disclosed to us verbally or in writing. * Every other secondary-residence apartment we viewed had this status clearly labeled in the listing and communicated verbally -- and none were presented as options because our situation required a primary residence for a full-time student. * These undisclosed decisions by the agency directly caused the tax liability and required significant legal and tax advisory fees to resolve. * Once these issues surfaced, Andy offered no assistance whatsoever. To Protect Yourself, Get These Answers In Writing: * Is the rental classified as a primary or secondary residence? * Who will be legally designated as the responsible occupant for taxes? * Where exactly are payments being routed (country + account)? * Will the routing create administrative or tax complications later? * Are there clauses that could shift liability onto you? * May you have a legal or tax specialist review the contract before signing? We share this so other renters can avoid the costly and stressful consequences we faced. With proper disclosure and transparent handling, none of this should happen. Renters deserve far better clarity than what we received. We attempted to resolve these issues directly with Andy, but he has completely washed his hands of the tax consequences created by how our rental was structured and reported. We also want to make clear that any earlier positive review he has chosen to repost does not reflect our current position. We formally withdrew that review, and it is inappropriate and misleading for it to be reused as though we still stand behind it. The review above is the accurate and current account of our experience. Nothing in our experience suggests that this agency operates as a safe or reliably transparent option for tenants.

    We attempted to resolve this directly with A1 Real Estate, but they washed their hands of the…read moreserious tax issues caused by how our rental was set up. Because of this, I feel a responsibility to warn future renters. Please make sure -- in writing -- how your rental will be classified (primary vs. secondary residence), who will be listed as the responsible "occupant," and what tax obligations you may later be held liable for. I strongly recommend having a legal or tax professional review his contract. If we had known what we know now, we would have looked elsewhere. During my stay, Andy was responsive, but key information was never disclosed. The apartment was treated as a secondary residence without my knowledge, which later resulted in me being charged the French residence tax (Taxe d'Habitation) almost a year after moving out. Rent payments were also routed outside French banking channels, creating further issues with documentation and tax authorities. These practices created major, unexpected financial and legal consequences for me. I urge renters to be extremely cautious -- or consider looking elsewhere.

    I used TV Only as the fixer for a shoot for a short film I'm putting together with some colleagues…read more-- we couldn't have been happier with the outcome! Originally, we weren't absolutely sure that we wanted to bring on a production company for the project, but I'm glad we did. It ended up actually being more cost-effective and saved us a lot of unnecessary stress. The shoot went very smoothly (which hasn't always been the case in the past!), and everyone on the crew was talented and professional. Most importantly though, our client loved the film and so did we. I would definitely recommend going through TV Only if you are shooting in Europe!
