The job of a works broker is to find the best service providers and manage construction, renovation and refurbishment projects.\nAs an intermediary between a project owner and building and civil engineering contractors, he brings these parties together to facilitate their exchanges.\nIn concrete terms, work brokers play a key role in simplifying the relationship between private individuals and building professionals.\nToday, in France, many franchises specialize in this sector, and there are numerous construction brokerage networks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mission of a construction broker varies according to the needs of the customer.\nWhether it’s for an individual or a professional, the job broker takes on a number of important tasks.\nHe or she searches for qualified craftsmen in his or her network, negotiates the best prices, identifies work requiring professional craftsmen, monitors the site and the progress of the work from start to finish, prepares specifications, advises on current standards and informs the customer of possible financing options. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the other hand, when a construction broker works with a construction company, his tasks are different.\nIn this case, he or she is responsible for finding potential building sites, prospecting for new customers, and putting these prospects in touch with the company in question. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Construction brokerage is a professional activity regulated by government legislation.\nThis means that in order to legally carry out this activity, construction brokers must comply with specific rules and regulations established by government authorities.\nThere is no formal training to become a “courtier en travaux” in France, and no diploma is required to exercise this profession.\nHowever, a number of training courses can be taken to acquire the necessary skills. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Indeed, those who become “courtiers en travaux” often come from a building trade.\nOrganizations such as the FFCT (F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Fran\u00e7aise du Courtage en Travaux), founded by Nicolas Daumont, and the GNCTI (Groupement National des Courtiers en Travaux Ind\u00e9pendants) offer courses covering the basics of the trade.\nOnce these courses have been completed, it is possible to set up on your own or join a brokerage franchise, which gives you the support you need to start up your business and the benefit of an established brand’s reputation with customers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Over the past few years, the job brokerage profession has been booming. This can be explained by growing customer demand for qualified craftsmen capable of carrying out quality renovation work. To join a brokerage network, franchisees must initially invest at least 2,000 euros, with potential sales estimated at 100,000 euros after two years in business. Statistics show that this sector is profitable: although it emerged in the 2000s, many brokerage firms are now thriving. The first, Illico Travaux, founded in 2000, has over 150 franchisees and some 70,000 customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Founded by Nicolas Daumont, a pioneer in the construction brokerage profession and President of the F\u00e9d\u00e9ration Fran\u00e7aise de Courtage en Travaux, illiCO travaux puts customers in touch with qualified professionals. By joining this franchise network, new partners benefit from comprehensive support, including in-depth initial training and the use of cutting-edge tools to develop their sales skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
