Hélène Lerch, estate agent in Lorgues

A calling, and an area to learn

Since 27 November 2000 I have worked in property with real enthusiasm. Guided from the outset by demanding trainers, I discovered a profession that won me over straight away and that I have never stopped refining.

I arrived in Lorgues at the age of 25, from the north of France and knowing nothing of the region. I learned to understand its particularities, its customs and its expectations. Over the years this area has become my true field of expertise.

A profession built on people

Throughout my career I have been fortunate to meet clients with very different plans for their lives. Every transaction is first of all an encounter — a relationship of trust built over time.

Seeing a client smile as they leave the notary's office remains, to this day, one of my greatest satisfactions. Every project is a shared commitment, a real challenge taken on together, with rigour and care.

"Guiding a property project is not simply about selling or buying. It is about being there at a pivotal moment in someone’s life, with seriousness, attentiveness and commitment."

Living through the cycles

The property market never stops changing. In more than twenty years I have lived through many shifts: the franc giving way to the euro, changes in legislation, periods of shortage, Brexit, the pandemic.

Those experiences taught me to adapt to each situation and to advise my clients clearly and pragmatically.

Choosing independence

With that background and those years of commitment behind me, I now work within my own practice, with one simple ambition: to guide you calmly and effectively through your sale or purchase.
