About us

A small agency in Nice for buying and selling on the Riviera: one adviser from the first call to the notaire.

A personal way of working

Warde Property is a small, independent agency in Nice. We believe a sale or a purchase goes well when one person knows you and your home, answers when you call, and tells you plainly what they think.

How we work

What we stand for

  • One agent, start to finish

    The person who values your home is the one who shows it, negotiates and sits beside you at the notaire.

  • Plain advice

    We tell you what we think a home is worth and why, also when it is not what you hoped to hear.

  • Three languages

    We work in English, French and Swedish, and explain each step of a French purchase or sale in yours.

Where we meet

We come to you

Most of our meetings happen where the decision is made: in the home you want to sell, at a viewing, or over a call from wherever you live. Tell us what suits you and we will arrange it.

  • I found my dream property in Nice thanks to Joacim and the Warde Property team. After making an enquiry through their website, Joacim contacted me within just a few hours. The service was so professional and responsive that I immediately booked a flight to Nice for the following week to start viewing properties. Over the course of three days, we visited 12 apartments together. After seeing several options, I found the perfect one. Joacim guided me through the entire process, negotiated an excellent price on my behalf, and helped make the purchase smooth and stress-free. What truly sets Joacim and Warde Property apart is that their support didn’t end once the sale was completed. They also helped me arrange home insurance, open a French bank account, and set up my internet connection. As someone who doesn’t speak French and wasn’t familiar with how things work in France, this level of after-sales service was invaluable. I genuinely don’t think I could have done it without Joacim and the Warde Property team. Their professionalism, local knowledge, and dedication exceeded all my expectations. I can’t recommend them highly enough. Thank you for making my dream of owning a home in Nice a reality!

  • We can't recommend Joacim Ordhall of Warde Properties highly enough for his services as a buyer's agent. Purchasing property remotely, from another country, comes with real challenges, and Joacim made the entire process feel manageable and trustworthy from start to finish. Early on, he provided a thoughtful summary of available apartments in Nice, with detailed comments on how each one aligned with the specific features we were looking for. What stood out most was that he was genuinely committed to helping us find the place that felt *right* for us, not just closing a sale. At no point did we feel any sales pressure, which made a huge difference given we were making this decision from thousands of miles away. Joacim is fluent in both English and French and works fluidly with local agents, which was invaluable in navigating the Nice market. His 15+ years of presence in the local real estate community meant he was deeply and well integrated with local professionals. He provided seamless assistance setting up the accounts we needed as foreign buyers, and connected us with reliable service providers for HVAC work and a kitchen remodel. After closing, he continued to go above and beyond, helping us get utilities set up quickly so we could actually stay in the apartment right after the purchase was finalized. It's also worth noting that Joacim takes on a limited number of clients specifically so he can provide this level of high-touch, high-quality service, and it shows. Just as importantly, he is fully licensed. This matters more than many buyers realize: a number of English-speaking "agents" working in Nice are not licensed agents themselves but are *agents commerciaux en immobilier* operating under another broker's *carte professionnelle* (the official real estate license, sometimes called *carte T*), rather than holding their own. Joacim holds his own credentials outright, which gave us real confidence and accountability throughout the transaction. If you're considering a property purchase in Nice, especially from abroad, Joacim is the best!

  • Joachim is an outstanding real estate agent on the Côte d’Azur. He is professional, knowledgeable, reliable, and truly goes above and beyond for his clients. From start to finish, he makes the whole process smooth, clear, and stress-free. His knowledge of the local market is excellent, and he gives honest, helpful advice at every step. Joachim is not only very skilled at what he does, but also friendly, patient, and easy to communicate with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking to buy, sell, or rent property on the French Riviera. In my opinion, he is one of the very best real estate agents in the area!

  • We recently purchased an apartment in Nice through Warde Property and are extremely satisfied with the experience. The service was excellent throughout the entire process, and we always felt safe, informed, and well taken care of. As Swedish buyers, it was especially reassuring to work with Joacim, who speaks Swedish and made communication easy and smooth. We highly recommend Warde Property to anyone looking to buy property on the French Riviera.

  • Joacim is simply fantastic. He guided us through every step of purchasing our apartment in Nice with professionalism, patience, and genuine care. More importantly, he took care of all the follow-up after the purchase, handling every detail and solving the many practical issues that arose to ensure everything was ready for us to move in. As foreign residents, navigating the French system could easily have been overwhelming, but Joacim made the entire process smooth and stress-free. His commitment went far beyond what we expected, and we always felt we were in safe hands. I can wholeheartedly and warmly recommend Joacim to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and truly dedicated professional.

Our service

Working with Warde Property

Buying on the Riviera can mean a dozen agencies, the same homes on every website and no one who takes responsibility. With us you have one person who finds the right homes for you, including those you have seen elsewhere, and organises every viewing in one go.

  1. 01

    Seen it elsewhere? We arrange it

    If you see another property you like anywhere else, let us know and we will insert it into your property viewings. This can be from another agency window, property magazine or property website. So instead of having to liaise with 5 different agents for 5 properties, you can get all of them organised by Warde Property for you.

    This costs you nothing: either we have the direct listing or contact the listing agent and the fees are split between agents. The fees are determined by the seller when he/she signed the listing agreement with the listing agent, so the total figure does not change.

  2. 02

    Finding the correct property

    Finding the correct property based on your requirements, from our own listings and from any agency window, magazine or website.

  3. 03

    The best possible price

    Negotiating the best possible price on your behalf.

  4. 04

    Finance

    Assisting with organising finance, if required.

  5. 05

    Legal advice

    Quality legal advice from our notary and a separate lawyer, if required.

  6. 06

    Regular communication

    Regular communications informing you of progress.

  7. 07

    After-sales service

    After-sales service such as organising utilities and any renovation works required.

  8. 08

    After the sale

    After the sale, Warde Property will still be available for you. Whether you want to renovate, rent or you just need someone to manage the property while you are away.
