Why delegate your viewing in Lille?

Lille’s housing stock is shaped by brick townhouses and renovated period buildings: insulation, heating and damp vary enormously from one property to the next. These are things a listing never shows and a Sherlock checks on site.

Student demand around the Catho, the Villeneuve-d’Ascq campuses and the city-centre schools makes the market very reactive in summer. A local visitor available quickly lets you secure a home before term starts without going up to Lille every weekend.

Frequently asked questions in Lille

I work in Paris and I am looking for a home in Lille: how do I organize viewings?

With VisitItForMe, you post a request for each listing you spot and a Lille Sherlock attends for you. You receive the reports with photos and only travel to Lille for the home that is worth it.

Can the Sherlock check the condition of an old townhouse?

Yes. State your points of attention in the request: damp, single or double glazing, heating type, visible roof condition. The Sherlock checks them during the viewing and documents them in the report.

You set the proposed amount when posting on VisitItForMe, and the Sherlock accepts the assignment or not. No subscription: you only pay for a completed viewing.
