Presumed innocent until proven guilty, Stéphane Plaza is nevertheless the subject of an investigation for domestic violence following the revelations of our colleagues at Médiapart
regarding the famous real estate agent. Indeed, three former companions of Karine Le Marchand’s sidekick accuse him of threats, humiliation, as well as physical and verbal violence committed against them.
After the survey was published, Stéphane Plazathrough his lawyer, refuted these allegations which he describes as “totally extrapolated, even misleading”. In response, the host filed a complaint against the three women who accused him of harassment and cyberharassment. Although justice may take time to shed light on this matter, many people want this situation to be resolved quickly, because they have been going through a real ordeal since the revelations of Médiapart. These include franchisees of Stéphane Plaza real estate agencies.

The impact of the investigation into Stéphane Plaza on his agencies
According to information relayed by our colleagues at South Info
, Le Figaro Immobilier learned that the management of the 700 agencies contacted its franchisees during a videoconference meeting lasting 23 minutes. She asked them to adapt their behavior in the face of the accusations. “Management told us: ‘You don’t know anything. Take care of your salespeople. This will pass quickly.’ This shows their lack of attention towards us. We are disappointed.”confided for example one of the participants to our colleagues.
Another franchisee claims that “On the outside, everything seems to be going well.”but “inside, it’s an empty shell.” “Franchisees manage on their own, generally with five employees, no more. In reality, they are a money-making machine!”, deplores another. Worse still, according to Le Figaro Immobilier, “around a hundred agencies are for sale” And “many file for bankruptcy or do not renew their contract.”
