In Cap-d’Ail, on the French Riviera, the apartment is the heart of the market: sea-facing residences, buildings by the harbour, floors on the border from which Monaco is reached on foot. Home Select hunts it before the listings, qualifies it on documents then on a video pre-viewing, and groups your decisive viewings into a single trip.

The essentials
Home Select, buyer’s agent in Cap-d’Ail, searches for apartments exclusively on the buyer's behalf. Median of the sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026: €8,000/m² (82 sales, DVF). Home Select opens access to off-market properties, with fees 100% on success.
On the ground
The apartment market in Cap-d’Ail, in figures
The apartment makes up most sales in Cap-d’Ail and trades around the survey median, €8,000/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, above Roquebrune-Cap-Martin (€6,400/m²), close to Beaulieu-sur-Mer (€8,500/m²). The stock mixes sea-facing residences, buildings in the centre and more recent buildings touching Monaco. Three-room flats, scarcer and more family-sized, cost more per square metre than two-room ones. The gap lies in an open view, over the sea or the Principality, the floor, the terrace, parking and the walking distance to the station, the beach and the border.
Who buys? Employees and residents of Monaco who want floor area and French law at the Principality’s door; families looking for a three-room flat with a terrace; international buyers who want a pied-à-terre for Monaco’s great events; retirees attached to the beach on foot. The best floors often go before any listing, through managing agents, notaires and local agencies: Home Select receives them from its network of 15,000 partners. Spring and September are the best seasons; the Grand Prix period complicates any trip.

Where exactly, in Cap-d’Ail and around?
The harbour and Plage Marquet for waterside residences; the border, along Fontvieille, Les Révoires and La Colle, for an apartment from which Monaco is reached on foot; the cape and Plage Mala for floors facing the open sea; the centre and La Pinède for an everyday apartment near the station; the heights towards La Turbie for a plunging view over Monaco.
Why use a buyer’s agent for your apartment in Cap-d’Ail?
The best addresses never list
On this market, a share of the sought-after properties sells before publication, between families and through notaires and local networks. Home Select receives more than 100 off-market properties every day from its network of 15,000 partners.
You only view the essential
Every lead is verified and priced for you before you travel, on file then on a video viewing: you view only the shortlisted properties, your decisive viewings grouped into a single trip. Home Select then defends your offer, with a complete file and the actual sales of the area in hand.
The building audited before you commit
Surveys, co-ownership rules, easements, local building specifics: every document is checked before you commit.
One method, two ways in
Both are billed only if the property is found and the purchase completed. On top comes 10% of the negotiated reduction: Home Select is also paid on what you save.

A view of Monaco or of the open sea: which apartment to buy in Cap-d’Ail?
Two views, two ways of living. To the east, the Principality, the Rock and Fontvieille, reached on foot from the border; to the south, the open sea above Plage Mala and the coastal path, calmer. Both read on the apartment median, €8,000/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026: an open view trades above it, a glimpse between two buildings below.
Cap-d’Ail or Beausoleil to live next to Monaco?
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, the survey gives €8,000/m² in Cap-d’Ail, against €7,100/m² in Beausoleil. Beausoleil sells Monte-Carlo on foot, by its stairways, in dense older buildings; Cap-d’Ail, the sea, the beach and the coastal path, Fontvieille at the end of the street and a station in the commune. The actual journey is checked address by address before the offer.
What should you check before buying into a residence in Cap-d’Ail?
The co-ownership first: façades exposed to sea spray, terrace waterproofing, lift, charges and works voted, in the general-meeting minutes. Then noise: the Basse Corniche and the railway cross the commune, and the calm of an address is judged windows open, on a video pre-viewing. Finally parking, scarce next to Monaco: a space or a lock-up attached to the lot weighs on the value.
What does an apartment in Cap-d’Ail cost?
The median stands at €8,000/m² across 82 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 Cap-d’Ail with a buyer’s agent?
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Cap-d’Ail 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 Cap-d’Ail?
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 Cap-d’Ail, the monitoring starts with two sectors: the cape and Mala beach, then the Cap-d’Ail marina. That is often where the unfindable property is.
What are your fees for buying an apartment in Cap-d’Ail?
Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Cap-d’Ail, 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, plus 10% of the negotiated reduction in both cases. Home Select is paid on success only, and also on what you save: nothing is due until you have bought.
