The apartment market in Cannes, in figures
Cannes is the most liquid apartment market on the Côte d’Azur: abundant supply, worldwide demand, transactions at every price. The DVF median of the survey, €5,800/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, frames a market where the top tenth of sales trades at close to double: the address, the floor and the actual view make the spread, far more than floor area. Parisians and Lyonnais look for a La Banane apartment usable all year round, international buyers for La Croisette and its south-facing terraces, film and congress professionals for a pied-à-terre that earns its keep.
The Cannes paradox: the wider the supply, the more the real quality is drowned. Many apartments for sale in Cannes look alike on paper without the same view, charges or co-ownership bylaws; a share of the noble floors of La Croisette sells without ever being published. Around the town the scale changes: Antibes and Juan-les-Pins read at €5,200/m², Mougins and Le Cannet at €4,200/m². Home Select prepares offers off season, away from the Festival and the summer, on the comparable DVF sales of the micro-sector.

Where exactly, in Cannes and around?
La Croisette for the front line and the noble floors; La Banane, the triangle between rue d’Antibes and rue Meynadier, for the apartment usable all year round; Le Suquet and the centre for the character pied-à-terre, handy near the station; Le Cannet and its upper districts facing the sea for floor area; Antibes and Juan-les-Pins, the neighbouring sector, to compare.

Frequently asked questions
Buying an apartment in Cannes: your questions
La Croisette or La Banane: which apartment to buy in Cannes?
La Croisette sells the front line: a frontal sea view, south-facing terraces, the most liquid values on the coast, and the charges of the large residences that come with them. La Banane, the triangle just behind, sells the town and the beach on foot, in buildings that are simpler to keep from a distance. Both read on the same municipal median, €5,800/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, but not on the same properties: the floor and the actual view make the spread, not the floor area.
What should I check before buying a seafront apartment in Cannes?
The minutes of the general meetings before the terrace: waterproofing, rendering of the façades exposed to salt, works already voted, the real amount of the charges, the co-ownership bylaws. Then the view itself, window by window, at the hour when the light matters: Home Select checks it on a video viewing before a single trip, then compares two addresses with the cost of bringing them up to standard included, tradesmen’s quotes in hand.
What does an apartment in Cannes cost?
The median stands at €5,800/m² across 2,429 sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026 (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026). It is a market benchmark, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.
How long does it take to buy in Cannes with a property finder?
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Cannes and on your availability: Home Select frames it at the brief, then holds it. Properties are first seen on video, and your decisive viewings are grouped into a single trip.
How do you reach off-market properties in Cannes?
Through the network and direct approach: Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and also contacts owners when the setting calls for it. In Cannes, the monitoring starts with two sectors: La Croisette and La Banane, then La Californie and Super Cannes. That is often where the unfindable property is.
What are your fees for buying an apartment in Cannes?
Home Select, a property finder in Cannes, charges 2.5% of the net purchase price (minimum €10,000 incl. VAT) on the Exclusive offer, or 1.5% on the Confidential offer for projects of €2m and above. Home Select is paid on success only: nothing is due until you have bought.
