Property finder in Courchevel

Because the local market has its own rules. A global, discreet market: the great chalets are negotiated off-list, file by file. A property finder works for you alone, on the buyer’s side: daily monitoring, access to off-market sales around Courchevel 1850 and the Jardin Alpin and Les Chenus and Nogentil, strict shortlisting and negotiation. Since 2011, Home Select has run more than 1,200 searches with this method, rated 4.8/5 on Google.

Based on actual recorded sales (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, millésime avril 2026, ventes 2025), the median price in Courchevel stands at €11,800/m² for an apartment and €9,700/m² for a house. The highest-priced sector in our survey: Méribel (Les Allues), €11,100/m² median. These medians are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.

In 2025, 3 rooms traded at a median of €12,700/m² per sqm, on a median surface of 60 sqm (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, millésime avril 2026, ventes 2025). A median home of the bracket changes hands around €762,000; condition, floor and address then make the rest of the price.

Notaire fees first: around 7 to 8% of the price on an existing home, 2 to 3% on a new build, paid on the day of signing. Then the finder’s fee, due on success only, and depending on the property the taxe foncière, service charges and a works budget. Home Select prices the whole picture before the offer: the asking price hides nothing. Our notary fees calculator gives the order of magnitude in one line.

1850 for heritage value and ski-in ski-out, the villages for authenticity and space on the same ski area. We hunt both in parallel and make the trade-off objective according to your use.

Yes: Méribel, La Tania and the whole Trois Vallées are part of the hunting perimeter when the project calls for it.

In 2025, 157 sales were recorded in Courchevel: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. After +32% since 2021, the past year pauses (-8%): room to negotiate, no reason to worry.

Our searches complete in 45 days on average, with 3 viewings on the client side instead of 40 and about fifteen hours of your time. In Courchevel, the monitoring covers Courchevel 1850 and the Jardin Alpin and Les Chenus and Nogentil from day one, and the calendar, framed at the brief, is held.

Yes, it is Home Select’s daily routine: 30% of its clients are expatriates or international buyers. Video brief, remote shortlisting and commented pre-visits, viewings grouped into a single trip to Courchevel, and the team works in French and in English.

Through the network and direct approach: Home Select’s 15,000 professional partners surface more than 100 properties every day before they go on sale, and Home Select also contacts owners when the setting calls for it. In Courchevel, the monitoring covers Courchevel 1850 and the Jardin Alpin and Les Chenus and Nogentil first: that is often where the unfindable property is.

Both markets coexist. The old offers the historic addresses, from the Jardin Alpin to the houses of Le Praz, with works to anticipate on buildings from the resort’s first decades. The new, concentrated on Moriond and the snow front, brings services and guarantees but requires a close reading of service charges and rental constraints. The trade-off rests on use and location, never on the brochure alone.

1850 and the Jardin Alpin form the top of the French alpine market; Les Chenus and Nogentil carry the ski-in chalets on 1850’s slopes; the Village (1550) and Moriond (1650) offer the family altitudes, values in the making; Le Praz keeps the original village and its authenticity. Value logics differ from one altitude to the next: the trade-off is prepared.

The ski-in return, tested in real conditions and not on the plan; the leases and rental management, whose clauses make an investment’s real return; the building rights and station rules, which frame renovation and extension. The large chalets are negotiated off-market, file by file: preparation makes access.

International families faithful to the station for generations, British, Swiss, Belgian or from the Gulf, handing down the Jardin Alpin chalets, and French entrepreneurs installing their own. Méribel and the Three Valleys naturally extend the hunt when the right property keeps them waiting.

It is one of the Alps’ best-paid rental markets: the short season pays for the year, when the chalet and its rules allow it. Rental-management leases, their duration and clauses make the real yield: they are read before the purchase, not after. Many owners keep Christmas and let the rest: that balance is planned into the choice of chalet.

Geneva then an hour and a half’s drive, Chambéry by train: the resort is reached within a day. The best viewings happen in spring and autumn, the window when owners receive: summer proves the village, winter proves the slopes, but the shoulder season signs. We frame the trip with the useful video calls and nothing else.

Management leases, residence charges and the building right that conditions any extension: these three files weigh more than decoration. Mountain buildings add energy renovation and station rules. Our audit reads everything before the offer: at this price level, a misread clause costs more than a roof.
