The essentials
Home Select, buyer’s agent in Valbonne, searches for apartments exclusively on the buyer's behalf. Median of the sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026: €4,600/m² (84 sales, DVF). Home Select opens access to off-market properties, with fees 100% on success.
On the ground
The apartment reads on the apartment median of the survey, €4,600/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026, far below the house median, €7,300/m²: it is the way into a commune of villas. The survey mixes small units and family apartments: surface, outdoor space and parking make the price. In the village, the old apartment often needs a full renovation and a parking space to be found; in the residences of Garbejaïre or Les Bouillides, it gains the terrace, the lift and the parking space, with charges to read.
The market lives all year, to the rhythm of Sophia Antipolis: transfers are often decided in spring, for a move before the school year. Who buys? Executives and engineers of the plateau who want to walk to the office; international families settling on the French Riviera, who start with an apartment near the Centre international de Valbonne before the villa; parents whose children have grown up, leaving the villa for the village on foot. A share of the apartments with a garden or a large terrace resells without a listing: Home Select’s network of 15,000 partners brings them up. Next door, Biot and Villeneuve-Loubet show their apartments at €5,900/m², Grasse and Châteauneuf-Grasse at €3,000/m²: Valbonne sits between the coast and the hinterland.

Alpes-Maritimes
The old village and its grid around the place des Arcades for the old floor above the shops, often to renovate; Garbejaïre, the lived-in district of Sophia Antipolis, for the residence apartment, shops and services on foot; Les Bouillides for the recent residences close to the companies, roads to check; Biot and Villeneuve-Loubet, towards the sea, to compare.
On the ground
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.
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.
Surveys, co-ownership rules, easements, local building specifics: every document is checked before you commit.
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.

The Confidential offerFrequently asked questions
The village gives the sixteenth-century grid, the arcades and life on foot, but old buildings, often to renovate, and scarce parking. The residences of Sophia Antipolis, in Garbejaïre or Les Bouillides, give the terrace, the parking and the office a few minutes away. Both read on the Valbonne apartment median, €4,600/m² over the 12 months to end of June 2026.
A three or four-room apartment with a terrace or garden, a parking space and the school within reach: a format in high demand in spring, when transfers are decided. Transferred families often look for it before they have seen the area: Home Select sets the brief by video call, qualifies each apartment on documents and in a video pre-viewing, and brings the family over only for the decisive viewings.
The co-ownership first: minutes of the latest general meetings, voted works, maintenance log and charges, heavier with a pool and grounds. Then the parking and the cellar, road noise on the Bouillides side, the orientation and the real view, pines or car park. In the village, have the full renovation costed before the offer. Home Select reads these documents and sets the price against comparable sales in the DVF survey.
The median stands at €4,600/m² across 84 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.
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Valbonne 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.
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 Valbonne, the monitoring starts with two sectors: the old village and the place des Arcades, then Les Hauts Sartoux. That is often where the unfindable property is.
Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Valbonne, 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.
