Guessed from your location: an underlined word changes with a click.
Home Select is a buyer’s agent in Dinard, established in 2011, searching for Belle Époque villas and sea-view apartments on the buyer’s behalf alone, from the Pointe du Moulinet to Saint-Énogat. Home Select opens access to off-market properties, the rule on a protected villa stock that passes down more often than it is sold. Fees are 100 % on success: nothing is owed before completion.
Dinard did not grow from a harbour but from a fashion: British and American families began building villas here in the 1860s, and the resort still owes its housing stock to that origin. A few hundred protected villas, three beaches and a headland facing Saint-Malo: supply is counted, and Parisian and British demand does not slacken.
A buyer’s agent works for the buyer, and for the buyer alone. Here is what Home Select changes, concretely, for your purchase in Dinard.
A Home Select finder writes your brief, launches the search within the week and stays with you until the deed is signed. Home Select answers every enquiry within 24 working hours.
Home Select receives more than 100 off-market properties a day from its 15,000 partners, agents, notaries and managing agents, before they go on sale. The finest addresses in Dinard often change hands this way.
Home Select pre-visits every property on commented video and shows only 3 properties on average, instead of 40 when searching alone, grouped into a single trip if you come from afar.
Home Select negotiates 6% on average off the asking price, with the area’s actual sales in hand, and checks every document before you commit. Also paid 10% of the negotiated reduction, Home Select has every reason to bring the price down: you keep 90% of every euro saved. Fees are due on success: nothing before signing.
Brittany - Dinard - A promenade facing Saint-Malo
A buyer-side search mandate, a written method, fees due on success. Here is what you entrust to Home Select in Dinard.
They search on your behalf and for you alone, from the written brief to the checking of every document up to the final deed: the six steps are detailed below. Home Select works for the buyer, never for the seller.
A main home, a second home, a pied-à-terre or a long-term wealth purchase in Dinard, whether you are on site or abroad: the search is run remotely, video viewings included, up to the decisive viewing.
Home Select runs two offers, with the same full service: the Exclusive offer, an exclusive mandate, 2.5% of the net purchase price, minimum €10,000 incl. VAT, at every budget; the Confidential offer, a simple mandate reserved for projects of €2m and above, 1.5% of the net purchase price, dedicated to off-market properties. In both cases, 10% of the negotiated reduction is added to the fees, and nothing is due until you have bought.
The calendar depends on the market in Dinard and on how rare the target property is: Home Select sets it at the first conversation, then holds it, and answers within one working day.

Roof, timbers, joinery, heating and energy performance often weigh more than the price gap between two properties. On a protected villa, works are costed before the offer, with the heritage constraints built in.
Between the exposed headland and the sheltered Prieuré beaches, day-to-day comfort is not the same. Orientation, wind and late-afternoon light are checked on site, at two different times of day.
Dinard in August and Dinard in January are two towns. The right district is the one that suits you in both seasons, especially if you are after regular use rather than a fortnight in summer.
From your brief to the handover of the keys: what Home Select does for you in Dinard, and what you gain from it.
Everything starts with a thorough conversation: the use of the property, the real budget, the non-negotiable criteria, the calendar. This written framing becomes the roadmap of the hunt, and avoids the months lost viewing beside the point.
Every property put to you matches your brief: the search hits the mark from the first week.
Home Select covers the whole market: published listings, and above all what is never displayed anywhere. Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and approaches owners directly when the setting calls for it.
You see properties before the market does, and sometimes properties that will never be published.
Every lead is verified and analysed for you, on file then on a video viewing: technical sheet, first figures. You only travel for properties that truly match the brief.
Fewer journeys: your decisive viewings grouped into a single trip, on the shortlisted properties only.
The offer is drafted and defended by Home Select, complete file in hand. The negotiation covers the price, but also the conditions, the timelines and the works revealed.
You buy at the right price, every offer defended with the area’s actual sales in hand.
Preliminary contract read line by line, surveys, co-ownership rules, charges, easements: every document is checked before you commit. The points of vigilance specific to each local market are in Home Select’s checklists.
You commit with full knowledge of the facts, with no bad surprise after signing.
Home Select stays by your side through to the signing before the notaire, and after: contractors, formalities, moving. Its work ends when you are settled in, not when the deed is signed.
A timetable framed at the first conversation, then kept: at every stage you know where your purchase stands.
A share of the finest sales in Dinard completes without ever being listed. Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before publication, and also approaches owners directly when the setting calls for it.

Brittany - Dinard - Villa Les Roches Brunes
Page updated on 20 October 2026, reviewed by Jean Mascla, founder of Home Select
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 347 sales were recorded in Dinard: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses.
The median for apartments has moved 0% since June 2022 and -4% over one year: a market correcting, address by address.
Sales range from €3,900/m² to €7,800/m²: address and condition make the price.
The Dinard market rests on a protected stock of villas and a shoreline that no longer extends. The Pointe du Moulinet and the streets around the Écluse beach hold the highest values, carried by the view and by architectural signature; La Malouine and Le Prieuré offer the same register in a quieter fabric.
Alongside the villas there is a real apartment market, largely second homes, where sea view and floor level make the difference. Saint-Énogat and the streets set back open the resort to more measured budgets, minutes from the same beaches.
| 12 months to end of June | Median | Sales counted (apartments) |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 | €5,300/m² | 207 |
| 2023 | €5,600/m² | 186 |
| 2024 | €5,900/m² | 169 |
| 2025 | €5,600/m² | 170 |
| 2026 | €5,300/m² | 191 |
Median for apartments over 12 months to end of June, year by year. A period without enough sales at the threshold is not published: the curve skips it rather than inventing a point.
The city and its department: Dinard trades 56% above its department median (€3,400/m²), same vintage and same method.

Brittany - Dinard - The seawater pool of L’Écluse beach
From the Moulinet to Saint-Briac, five addresses in a resort you cross in minutes, with price gaps the view alone very nearly explains.
The headland closing the Écluse beach: the most prominent villas in the resort, looking across to the walled town and the estuary. A market of a few addresses, rarely available, where the sale is prepared long before any listing.
The great beach with its striped tents, the casino and the shops: characterful apartments and town villas, with the most immediate use of the resort. View and floor level govern values.
The historic villa estate between the Écluse and the sea: wooded plots, Belle Époque architecture and open views. The address of the protected building stock, much sought after and little offered.
To the south, the Prieuré beach, the Clair de Lune promenade and the harbour: a more sheltered register, facing the Rance rather than the open sea, prized for its calm and its evening light.
The village of Saint-Énogat, then the coast towards Saint-Lunaire and Saint-Briac with its golf course: seaside houses and resort villas at more measured values than the Moulinet, on the same shoreline.
The market, the neighbourhoods, the addresses
We find the property of your dreams in Dinard
Dinard at a glance
Dinard is walked from one beach to the next: the Clair de Lune promenade follows the estuary to the Prieuré, the Pointe du Moulinet closes the Écluse beach and opens the view to Saint-Malo, and Saint-Énogat keeps the air of a village. The villas are there to be seen from the street, and that is part of the pleasure.
The resort lives two seasons. A full summer, with its striped tents, its British film festival in the autumn and its terraces; a quiet winter, when the town closes in on its residents and a district can really be judged. Saint-Malo, its shops and its TGV station are ten minutes away across the Rance barrage. The major services sit across the Rance in Saint-Malo: weighing the two shores is part of every Dinard search.
Dinard is a resort of Belle Époque villas, at the Moulinet or in La Malouine, bought to be kept and passed on. Saint-Énogat and the streets set back keep a village life all year, and Saint-Malo, its secondary school and its station are ten minutes away across the Rance barrage. On protected villas, the cost of works and energy performance weigh more than the price gap between two properties.
This is the resort’s natural use, and that of most of its buyers: a Belle Époque villa at the Moulinet or in La Malouine, a sea-view apartment near the Écluse, a more sheltered house at the Prieuré. To investigate: exposure to the open-sea wind, the condition of roof and timbers, and consents if the property is protected.
Living in Dinard year-round is possible and it is done, provided you choose a district that holds up out of season: Saint-Énogat and the streets set back keep a village life when the seafront empties. Saint-Malo, its shops, its secondary school and its station are ten minutes away across the Rance barrage: many organise daily life across both banks.
Dinard has its own airport, Dinard-Pleurtuit-Saint-Malo, some ten minutes away, with links to the United Kingdom; Rennes is an hour away and offers a wider European choice. The TGV station at Saint-Malo, ten minutes away across the Rance barrage, puts Paris about two and a quarter hours off. It is that combination, an airport facing England and a train to Paris, that explains the resort’s dual clientele.
The international community in Dinard. The resort was created by foreign visitors and has never lost them: British families began building here in the 1860s and many stayed. English is widely heard, and golf, sailing and the British film festival keep the link alive. For a non-resident buyer this is one of the few French markets where an international clientele is part of local history rather than a friction within it.
When to visit, when to buy? Dinard lives a short, intense season from June to September, and a very quiet winter. Properties come to market in spring and after the summer, once the season has passed. For a non-resident buyer, viewing out of season is more than advice: it is the only way to know whether the district you have chosen still holds up in January, when a good many shutters are closed.

Because the local market has its own rules. The designated heritage site protects several hundred villas: façades, roofs and surroundings are governed, and projects go through the Bâtiments de France architect. A buyer’s agent works for you alone, on the buyer’s side: daily monitoring, access to off-market sales, 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, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026), the median price in Dinard stands at €5,300/m² for an apartment and €4,700/m² for a house. The highest-priced sector in the survey: Saint-Lunaire et Saint-Briac, €5,400/m² median. These medians are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 3 rooms traded at a median of €5,600/m², on a median surface of 63 sqm (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026). A median home of the bracket changes hands around €353,000; condition, floor and address then make the rest of the price.
Yes, but the market is narrow and largely private: the protected stock is finite, and the finest addresses often change hands without a public listing. That is precisely the ground for a search mandate, through the local network and direct approaches to owners.
Saint-Malo has the TGV station, the town and year-round shops; Dinard has the villa stock, the sheltered beaches and the calm of a resort. The Rance barrage puts ten minutes between them, and many of Home Select’s clients view both banks before deciding.
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 347 sales were recorded in Dinard: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. The median for apartments has moved 0% since June 2022 and -4% over one year: a market correcting, address by address.
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Dinard 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 Dinard, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Pointe du Moulinet, then Écluse beach and the centre. That is often where the unfindable property is.
Not all, but several hundred are, under the designated heritage site, and the resort as a whole is governed. In practice: façades, roofs, boundary walls and surroundings are regulated, and any renovation or extension goes through the Bâtiments de France architect. It is a real constraint, and it is also what preserved the stock you have come here to find.
The Moulinet and La Malouine for a front-rank villa and the view, the Écluse and the centre to live the resort on foot, the Prieuré for calm and the light over the estuary, Saint-Énogat and the coast towards Saint-Lunaire for more measured values on the same shoreline.
On the villa segment, yes: the stock is finite, owners know one another, and a fine address often finds a buyer before any advertising. On apartments the market is more open. Home Select works both routes, with the local network for the first.
Very little: the Coastal Law and the local plan protect a villa stock already built, and free first-line plots can be counted. The measured extension of an existing villa, within the protected seaside perimeters, remains the way in: this frozen stock is what carries the values.
The TGV stops in Saint-Malo, a quarter of an hour from Dinard over the Rance barrage: Home Select picks you up at the station. Video calls filter the stock, then viewings group into one day, from the Pointe du Moulinet to Saint-Énogat, often pairing both shores for clients weighing Saint-Malo as well.
Yes, though not as a local branch: outside Île-de-France, Home Select runs every search from its head office, with its network of 15,000 professional partners. Each property is vetted on paper, then toured in a video pre-viewing led with the seller’s agent, and you travel only once, for the decisive viewings. The guide “Buying property in France remotely” spells out how it works.
To hunt in Dinard, check four points: a search mandate on the buyer’s side only, published fees due on success, a written method, proof that lasts. Home Select answers all four: founded in 2011, 1,200+ buyers guided, 4.8/5 on Google (140 reviews), fees displayed, 100% on success.
Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Dinard, 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.
The questions common to every city (purchase costs, remote search, choosing your finder) are gathered on one page.
One point of contact, one method, the same fees: the search does not stop at the limits of Dinard. Many projects play out over two or three towns, and the brief allows for it from the first conversation.
