The chalet market in Megève, in figures

At the house median of the survey, Megève sits at the summit of the French Alpine market; the mutation count says it all: chalets almost never trade on the open market.

Apartments follow at the apartment median of the same survey: the usual way in, the chalet coming later. Combloux and Demi-Quartier offer the quiet alternative.

Why use a buyer’s agent for your chalet in Megève?

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.

Frequently asked questions

Buying a chalet in Megève: your questions

Why are Megève chalets so expensive?

Because almost nothing sells: the number of house sales recorded over the 12 months to end of June 2026 fits in a two-figure count, planning rules that restrict new building, and permanent international demand. The price, a €15,700/m² median for houses, is scarcity, not a bubble.

Must I view before the snow?

Megève trades all year, but the best windows are late winter and autumn. Home Select vets and documents every chalet for you, on file then on a video viewing, and only brings you over for the shortlist, your decisive viewings grouped into a single trip.

What does a chalet in Megève cost?

The median stands at €15,700/m² across 38 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 Megève with a buyer’s agent?

The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Megève 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 Megève?

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 Megève, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Mont d’Arbois, then Rochebrune. That is often where the unfindable property is.

What are your fees for buying a chalet in Megève?

Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Megève, 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.
