2. Selection of listings and transactions

Step 1:
To select listings or transactions, two types of views are available:
- Thumbnail view, which shows a preview photo of the listing
- List view, which displays the main characteristics of the properties
Step 2:
To switch between views, click on one of the two icons on the right, then activate the Select listings option.

Listings can be sorted according to various criteria available in the filter. By default, the Closest first option is applied:

Distance - Closest first
Distance - Furthest first
Price - Lowest first
Price - Highest first
Price per m² – Lowest first
Price per m² – Highest first
Date - Most recent first (by construction date)
Date - Oldest first (by construction date)
Days on the market - Fewest first
Days on the market - Most first

It is then possible to select up to 24 listings and 24 transactions.

As you make your selection, the average price per m² and the Days on the market will be displayed.

When the Show only selected box is checked, only the selected listings or transactions will be shown.

3. Add Exclusive transactions

Under the Transactions tab, all sold properties from the DVF database are displayed by default (Demandes de Valeurs Foncières - https://app.dvf.etalab.gouv.fr/).

This data is essential for forming an informed valuation opinion, but it has its limitations:

A delay of 3 to 9 months between the signing date and publication,
A limited number of characteristics (address, price, area, number of rooms, transaction date),
Some regions (such as Alsace, for example) do not have DVF data.

This is where Exclusive Transactions come into play.

Exclusive transactions allow you to import your own transactions and sales agreements directly into the Property Advisor solution, enabling you to display precise and unique data.

These internal transactions will be visible under the Transactions tab, just like the DVF transactions. They will remain private and will not be visible to other PriceHubble users.

Adding these Exclusive transactions to your PDF valuation reports will leverage your own data like never before, with the level of detail and granularity that suits your needs.

A black EXCLUSIVE label will then distinguish these transactions from those in the DVF database.
