How Real Estate professional Paco Debonnaire turns paperwork into progress with PDF Expert

For over two years, Paco Debonnaire, a real estate investor and host of the podcast “Les Investisseurs 4.0,” from the Paris region, has been transforming and reselling properties for a living. His work involves countless contracts, floor plans, and official documents — all of which once meant endless paperwork. Recently, Paco shared in a LinkedIn post how PDF Expert became an essential tool in his daily real estate work.

Today, Paco runs his business far more efficiently with PDF Expert, his go-to tool for reading, editing, and signing documents on any device. Real estate involves constant paperwork, and PDF Expert is where I can read, edit, and sign everything in one place,” Paco says. “It makes the process more manageable.”

At its core, Paco’s story highlights one simple truth — when your tools work seamlessly, so do you. Try PDF Expert and see how it can simplify your own document workflow.

Making real estate work more streamlined

Real estate is a fast-moving business — deals happen quickly, and deadlines are tight. Paco’s daily routine is filled with contracts to review, estimates to approve, and property plans to mark up. For him, PDF Expert has become essential for keeping everything under control.

“It’s simply one of the tools I use the most,” he explains. “I can highlight important sections, mark up plans, and sign right in the app. It saves me a lot of time.”

Whether it’s adding comments for contractors or signing off on new purchases, Paco handles every step digitally — no printing, scanning, or waiting required.

From contracts to data — all in one app

Beyond reading and signing, Paco uses PDF Expert to extract key numbers from property documents and make data easier to work with.

“I also use the PDF to Excel feature to have data around property transactions easier to navigate in Excel,” he says.

With a few taps, he converts transaction tables or renovation budgets into Excel sheets he can quickly analyze — a minor feature that saves hours over time.

Syncing seamlessly from the office to on-site

Paco’s job takes him everywhere — from the office to construction sites to client meetings. That’s why PDF Expert’s cross-device sync is one of his favorite features.

“I use it on my Mac in the office, and on my iPhone or iPad when I’m traveling or visiting properties,” he explains. “Having the same document updated everywhere means I don’t lose time searching for files.”

This flexibility means Paco can review floor plans on-site, show changes to contractors, or send back signed contracts from his phone — keeping projects moving, no matter where he is.

Saving time when it matters most

Real estate deals often depend on speed, and Paco values how PDF Expert helps him move fast.

“It simplifies the process,” he says. “Instead of printing, scanning, and emailing back, I can review and sign directly. That keeps things moving, especially when I need to respond quickly.”

With everything happening digitally, he avoids delays and keeps his business agile — exactly what a modern real estate professional needs.

Staying organized through every project

Real estate projects generate hundreds of files from legal documents to renovation estimates. PDF Expert helps Paco keep everything organized, searchable, and right where he needs it.

“In real estate, documents pile up quickly,” Paco shares. “Having one tool that keeps them organized and easy to work with makes a noticeable difference in day-to-day work.”

Folders, smart search, and clean organization tools let him focus on decisions — not document hunting.
