The expert
Real-estate valuation expert
Founder of Cabinet ACJ Expertises, an independent valuation practice based in Carry-le-Rouet since 2015. Twenty-six years walking properties, listening to dossiers, and rendering conclusions that lawyers and notaries can defend, and that judges can adopt.
"A valuation is neither an opinion nor a favour. It is a reasoned technical act — one that must hold up before a judge, and before time itself."
Areas of practice
When to call on an expert
A sworn valuation is a reasoned, defensible technical act conducted in strict independence. It is not an agency estimate. Four areas structure the practice.
Estates & successions
Valuation at the relevant date for asset settlement, declared values and arbitrations between heirs.
Divorce & joint ownership
Contradictory valuation for matrimonial liquidations and exits from joint ownership.
Disputes & arbitration
Amicable expertise, decision-support files, rental values, eviction indemnities.
Private wealth
IFI declarations, gifts, patrimonial management, advisory for international investors entering the Provençal market.
The distinction
A valuation, not an agency estimate
Where an agency estimate prepares a property for sale, a valuation produces a reasoned and enforceable value: systematic on-site inspection, documented comparable references, explicit assumptions, and a conclusion that holds before a court or the administration. Work conducted in accordance with the Charte de l'expertise en évaluation immobilière.
- Signed engagement letter: scope, purpose, valuation date.
- On-site inspection and checks: planning, easements, occupancy status.
- Reasoned report — enforceable and defensible.
