Cabinet Debayle

What Cabinet Debayle does

Cabinet Debayle is a privately held, independent real estate agency headquartered at 16 rue Vignon in the Paris 8th arrondissement, near Place de la Madeleine. Originally founded in 1963 as Cabinet Bernard Linget (itself a successor to Cabinet René Linget) and renamed to its current identity in 1995, the firm has been led by Monsieur Quaranta as Président Directeur Général since 2005 and operates with no external shareholders. The agency offers four interlocking core services: property transactions (achat/vente), residential and commercial rental placement (location), full-service rental property management (gestion locative) with an optional unpaid-rent guarantee insurance, and co-ownership syndicate administration (syndic de copropriété) for buildings, ASL, AFUL, and UDS structures.

The underlying technology stack is deliberately narrow and operational rather than platform-oriented. The syndic activity runs on the THETRAWIN property-management accounting software, complemented by a co-owner extranet portal that provides real-time personal account access, electronic delivery of accounting documents, and bank direct-debit payment of service charges. The public-facing website and listing infrastructure are powered by the La Boite Immo platform, with a Hektor back-office for administration. The firm is guaranteed by Compagnie Européenne de Garantie et Caution (CEGC, formerly SOCAMAB) and is a member of the Union des Syndicats de l'Immobilier (UNIS).

The business model is a traditional advisor-led mix of transaction commissions and recurring management fees. Sale commissions are tiered from a €3,000 flat fee up to a 6–10% range depending on price band (commercial/industrial/land at 7% under €10M), with the buyer paying 4% TTC fees embedded in the listed price. Rental fees are split between tenant (€12/m²) and landlord (one month rent HT+HC), commercial leases are charged at 30% HT of annual rent, and the gestion locative and syndic activities generate ongoing percentage-based fees. Customers are individual property owners, buy-to-let investors, co-owners, buyers, sellers, and landlords concentrated in Paris 8/9/17 and the broader Île-de-France region, including Athis-Mons.
