How to Set Up SeLoger Alerts: Step-by-Step Guide (2026)

SeLoger is one of France's most comprehensive real estate portals, with listings from professional agencies across the country. Setting up effective alerts is the first step to an efficient property search.

Creating Your First Alert

Step 1: Define Your Search

  1. Go to seloger.com
  2. Select your transaction type: Acheter (Buy) or Louer (Rent)
  3. Enter your target location (city, arrondissement, or neighborhood)
  4. Set your basic filters:
    • Property type (Appartement, Maison, etc.)
    • Price range
    • Number of rooms minimum
    • Surface area minimum

Step 2: Save as Alert

  1. Run the search to see results
  2. Click "Créer une alerte" (Create an alert)
  3. Choose alert frequency: Instantanée (Instant) is recommended
  4. Enter your email address or use your SeLoger account
  5. Confirm the alert

Step 3: Optimize for AI Filtering

If you're using AI filtering (FilterWise):

  1. Set alerts broader than your real criteria — let the AI handle precision
  2. Increase your price range by 10-15% above your budget (catches negotiable listings)
  3. Add surrounding neighborhoods beyond your primary target
  4. Remove surface area filter — price per m² is a better metric (and the AI calculates it)
  5. Use your FilterWise forwarding address as the alert email

Advanced SeLoger Tips

Multiple Alerts

Create separate alerts for different strategies:

  • Alert 1: Your primary search criteria
  • Alert 2: Broader area, lower price (renovation opportunities)
  • Alert 3: Higher budget in premium neighborhoods (negotiation targets)

Search Filters That Matter

  • "Neuf" (New build) vs "Ancien" (Old/existing): Very different acquisition costs
  • "Avec photos" (With photos): Filters out placeholder listings
  • "Exclusivités" (Exclusives): Listings only on SeLoger

Limitations of SeLoger Alerts

  • Cannot filter by price per m²
  • No floor level filter
  • No noise or orientation criteria
  • No calculated metrics (yield, cash flow)
  • Limited to AND logic (no OR conditions)

These limitations are exactly what AI filtering solves — set broad SeLoger alerts and let the AI apply your complete criteria.

Forwarding to FilterWise

  1. In your email client, create a forwarding rule:
  2. Alternatively, set the FilterWise email directly as your alert email on SeLoger

Every new alert will be automatically processed by AI against your detailed criteria.
