What BETRIM does
BETRIM is an independent French real estate developer (legal entity: Société MTB, RCS Grenoble 441 100 021, registered capital €300,000) founded in 1994 and headquartered in Grenoble. It operates under the Groupe GBTI family umbrella, which has more than 50 years of real estate history. The company designs, constructs, and commercializes new residential properties — apartments (T2 to T5) and individual villas — through VEFA (Vente en État Futur d'Achèvement) off-plan sales across four French departments: Isère, Savoie, Haute-Savoie, and Var. Its active portfolio comprises 14 programs (including Le Tilia in Samoëns, L'Abel Attitude/Évidence and Hysope in Voiron, Domaine Arbor & Sens in Yvoire, Berlioz and Villa Hestia in Saint-Raphaël), with over 50 completed developments historically spanning mountain (Megève, Morzine, Alpe d'Huez), lake (Aix-les-Bains, Yvoire), urban (Grenoble, Voiron), and coastal (Saint-Raphaël) locations.
Revenue is generated through one-time outright sales of completed or in-progress residential units to end-buyers, with payments structured progressively against construction milestones. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and varies by program, unit type, surface area, and location; buyers benefit from reduced notary fees (2–3% vs. 6–7% for older properties), PTZ eligibility, and personalization through TMA (Travaux Modificatifs Acquéreur). The customer base consists of two primary segments: individual homebuyers (primary/secondary residence) and buy-to-let investors seeking Pinel, LMNP, PLS, or nue-propriété structures. Go-to-market combines a direct internal field-sales team, a network of partner real estate agencies specialized in new-build sales, and digital channels (website, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn) plus a €1,000 Cadhoc referral program.
The proprietary technology layer is the BETRIM News mobile application — the first French developer app enabling buyers to follow construction progress in real time via automated photo push notifications. The offering is extended through a structured partner ecosystem for financing (Court'ea Crédits), wealth/tax advisory (Cabinet Meunier Expert Conseil), rental management (Agence Delphine Teillaud), interior design (Allure Soft Design), and resale assistance (2A Immobilier). Technical engineering is provided by long-standing partner BETREC, co-located in the Grenoble building since 2011, and buyer customization is executed through A6MAITRI. No external institutional investors or private equity ownership is evident; ownership remains within the GBTI family group.
