02 / Search protocol

Four phases from brief to viewing route

One agent runs the whole sequence. Each phase closes with a written, dated deliverable, so you can see exactly what was checked and when.

  1. 01

    Brief and budget model

    Your requirements become a realistic price band per district before the first viewing.

    • Written brief: districts, layout, condition, commute
    • Budget model covering commission, deposit, utilities
    • Price bands per district from a 12-month index
  2. 02

    Shortlist build

    We cut the market down to a short set of apartments that match the brief, and reject the rest in writing.

    • 6 to 10 verified listings, each with current price
    • Verification log: floor, build year, m², $/m²
    • Rejected slots with a one-line reason each
  3. 03

    Seller contact and document pre-check

    We speak to owners and their agents for you, and check ownership before you commit a day to viewing.

    • Owner or agent contacted on your behalf
    • Ownership and encumbrance pre-check
    • Viewing slots negotiated and confirmed
  4. 04

    Viewing route

    All viewings for a district are grouped into one route, and every apartment is compared against the same brief.

    • One-day route covering 4 to 6 apartments
    • Agent present at every viewing, no handovers
    • Written comparison note within 24 hours

Availability and prices change. Every listing is verified before it reaches your shortlist. . Agency fee is disclosed upfront before phase 02 begins.

04 / SPECIMENS

Annotated shortlist specimens

Three cards from a live Kyiv brief: two kept, one rejected. Each figure was checked against the LUN.ua index and carries the month of the check. We are an agency, not the owner, so availability is re-confirmed before every viewing.

Next step: read the four search phases or send us your brief.

05 / Pricing

Fees agreed before the first viewing
