Côte d’Azur - Saint-Tropez - The gulf from the air
Côte d’Azur · Var
Home Select searches, visits and negotiates for you in Saint-Tropez. You only visit the properties shortlisted, and nothing is due before the deed is signed.
Your project
Home Select is a buyer’s agent in Saint-Tropez, founded in 2011, searching for villas and village houses exclusively on behalf of the buyer. From Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez to the hills of Ramatuelle and Gassin, Home Select opens access to off-market properties across the peninsula and the gulf. Fees are 100% on success, with nothing payable upfront.
Around the village and the peninsula, the gulf of Saint-Tropez forms a market apart: from Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez to the hills of Ramatuelle and Gassin, value hangs on details only insiders know. Here more than anywhere, the fine deal is not displayed: it is known.
A buyer’s agent works for the buyer, and for the buyer alone. Here is what Home Select changes, concretely, for your purchase in Saint-Tropez.
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 Saint-Tropez 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.
Côte d’Azur - Saint-Tropez - The Vieux-Port and its bell tower
A buyer-side search mandate, a written method, fees due on success. Here is what you entrust to Home Select in Saint-Tropez.
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 Saint-Tropez, 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 Saint-Tropez 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.

In Les Parcs as in the other domains of the peninsula, request the rulebook, the owners’ association statutes, the easements and rights of way before any offer: they govern works, extensions and use far more than the property itself.
A property seen in February says nothing about August: traffic on the route des Plages, the sound systems of the Pampelonne beach clubs, the real time needed to reach the village. Negotiate in winter, but always check the house under high-season conditions.
Loi Littoral, protected woodland, the safeguarded landscapes of Ramatuelle: on the peninsula, few plots allow what buyers imagine. Have the local plan and sector rules verified before the offer: pool, extension, outbuilding, none of it can be assumed.
From your brief to the handover of the keys: what Home Select does for you in Saint-Tropez, 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 Saint-Tropez 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.

Côte d’Azur - Saint-Tropez - The fishing boats of the Vieux-Port
Page updated on 20 October 2026, reviewed by Jean Mascla, founder of Home Select
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 190 sales were recorded in Saint-Tropez: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses.
The median for apartments is up +38% since June 2022, +6% in the last year alone: the trend holds, and sellers know it.
Sales range from €8,000/m² to €20,700/m²: address and condition make the price.
The gulf of Saint-Tropez is a market apart, ruled by scarcity and word of mouth: Les Parcs and the private domains, the hills of Ramatuelle and Gassin, the village houses of La Ponche. The properties that matter almost never appear in a listing, and when they do, it is often too late.
Everything is a matter of detail: the rulebook of a domain, a right of way, the real view over the gulf, the walking distance to the village. Value gaps are considerable between two neighbouring addresses, and the short season inverts the calendar: you hunt from October to April, you enjoy in summer.
Discretion is the local currency: sellers and buyers alike require confidentiality, and the market works through trusted intermediaries. It is a finder’s market, by construction.
| 12 months to end of June | Median | Sales counted (apartments) |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 | €9,000/m² | 226 |
| 2023 | €9,800/m² | 182 |
| 2024 | €11,200/m² | 161 |
| 2025 | €11,700/m² | 128 |
| 2026 | €12,400/m² | 121 |
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.

Côte d’Azur - Saint-Tropez - The village and the port from the heights
From La Ponche to the hills of Ramatuelle, the peninsula reads like an insider’s map: every address has its code, every domain its customs.
The most famous guarded domain of the coast, at the entrance of the peninsula: prestige villas in a protected pine grove, strict rulebook, private beaches. Sales are extremely rare, negotiated by private agreement between insiders.
The historic heart around the port and La Ponche: village houses with coloured facades, pied-à-terre above the quays, the citadel above. Rare, mythical, and absolutely demanding on building condition and season management.
The east coast of the peninsula, from Les Salins to the point of La Capilla: contemporary and traditional villas between vines and coves, private beaches, coastal path. A confidential market where water access and the open sea view make the supreme addresses.
The two perched villages of the upper gulf: bastides and villas in the wine-growing hills, views over Pampelonne bay, beaches close by the ridge roads. A broader market than the peninsula, but just as discreet on fine properties.
The north shore of the gulf: the medieval village of Grimaud and its character houses, Port Grimaud the lakeside city and its houses on the water. Another logic of value, lakeside and family, completing the hunt when the project calls for it.
The market, the neighbourhoods, the addresses
We find the property of your dreams in Saint-Tropez
Saint-Tropez at a glance
The Tropezian year begins on the place des Lices, beneath the plane trees: the Tuesday and Saturday market, games of pétanque in the shade, coffee at the counter of Sénéquier before climbing to the citadel. La Ponche keeps its fishermen’s lanes and weathered facades, and the Annonciade, a former chapel facing the port, hangs Signac and the pointillists who came here for the light of the gulf.
The true rhythm is that of the seasons. Summer belongs to Pampelonne and its beaches, to early-morning swims in the coves of Les Salins; autumn returns the village to those who live there, with Les Voiles de Saint-Tropez closing the season and the harvest in the vineyards of Ramatuelle and Gassin. In winter you walk the coastal path towards Cap Camarat, and the gulf recovers a silence summer visitors never suspect.
In the gulf of Saint-Tropez, you buy scarcity: its value rests on the exact address, the view and the discretion of the neighbours. Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez, the village and La Ponche, the hills of Ramatuelle and Gassin: the good buy is not advertised, it is known about. A property in the gulf is kept and passed on, and its real use depends on the local plan, the scope for extension, drainage and access far more than on its floor area.
This is the whole market: Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez, the village and La Ponche, the hills of Ramatuelle and Gassin. The good buy is not advertised, it is known about. Before the offer, Home Select examines the local plan, the scope for extension, drainage and access, which determine the real use of a property far more than its floor area.
Living in the gulf year-round means accepting two towns in one: a saturated summer and a very quiet winter. Families turn to Gassin, Grimaud and Cogolin, where schools and shops stay open all year. Journey times double in season, and the nearest airport remains Toulon-Hyères, Nice being an hour and a half away.
Saint-Tropez has neither an airport nor a TGV station of its own, and that is exactly what preserves its exclusivity. Air access runs through Toulon-Hyères, 50 minutes away, with seasonal direct flights to London and Northern Europe, or Nice-Côte d’Azur, 1 h 30 away, for worldwide connections. A helicopter links Nice or Toulon to the gulf in about twenty minutes. By train, the TGV stations of Saint-Raphaël and Les Arcs-Draguignan sit 40 minutes away, then a road shuttle or a boat. In peak season the road is the real friction point: the boat and the helicopter are not a luxury, they are the answer.
The international community in Saint-Tropez. Saint-Tropez hosts an international community used to prestige purchases, with a local ecosystem familiar with foreign files. For a non-resident buyer, the difficulty is not the availability of services but the discretion of the market: the finest sales never appear in a listing. That is precisely the ground Home Select’s network and direct approach are built for.
When to visit, when to buy? Saint-Tropez has the most contrasted rhythm on the Riviera: intense from June to September, peaceful the rest of the year to the point of becoming a village again. The market is most active in spring, April to June, and at the September-October return, windows when fine homes can be viewed in good conditions. Summer slows viewings while saturating logistics. Winter, very quiet, suits discreet acquisitions and negotiation.
Côte d’Azur - Saint-Tropez - The church bell tower
Because the local market has its own rules. A short-season market: decisions are prepared from October to April, away from the summer bustle. 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 Saint-Tropez stands at €12,400/m² for an apartment and €25,000/m² for a house. Across the sectors of the survey, the median ranges from €5,000/m² (Le Plan-de-la-Tour et La Garde-Freinet) to €13,500/m² (Ramatuelle et Gassin). 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, 2 rooms traded at a median of €14,000/m², on a median surface of 42 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 €588,000; condition, floor and address then make the rest of the price.
Yes: Saint-Tropez, Ramatuelle, Gassin, Grimaud, Sainte-Maxime and, depending on the project, the rest of the Var coast.
It is even the norm on fine properties. Home Select’s work consists in surfacing these opportunities through the local network and direct approach, then negotiating them at the right price.
Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 190 sales were recorded in Saint-Tropez: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. The median for apartments is up +38% since June 2022, +6% in the last year alone: the trend holds, and sellers know it.
The calendar depends on how rare the target property is in Saint-Tropez 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 Saint-Tropez, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez, then the village and La Ponche. That is often where the unfindable property is.
It depends on how you will live it. For the village on foot, La Ponche and the streets around the place des Lices; for sea and space, Les Salins or the hills of Ramatuelle, quieter in summer; for a family, boating setting, Port Grimaud. The right choice turns on real beach access and August tranquillity, two things no listing ever shows.
Les Parcs de Saint-Tropez remain the most sought-after estate of the peninsula; the village and La Ponche keep the character houses and pied-à-terre; Les Salins and La Capilla line up the villas between vines and beaches; Ramatuelle and Gassin offer the views over the baie de Pampelonne, Grimaud and Port Grimaud other uses. Each sector of the gulf answers a different project.
The charter and the rights of way first: on private estates, they make the value, and sometimes the impossibility, of a project (pool, fence, access). The real buildability next, measured rather than assumed. And a return visit in full summer: what is perfect in June must stay liveable in August, beach and traffic included.
The season is short: decisions are prepared from October to April, away from the summer agitation, when owners receive serious viewers. The premium on discretion is real: sellers and buyers alike demand confidentiality, and many sales are never listed. A hunter known to the local networks reaches that level of the market.
The gulf lives by car: Home Select groups viewings by sector, village, hills, beach, so each trip counts. The right window runs October to April, when owners receive serious buyers: summer serves to feel the place, not to view. Many clients alternate: a summer visit to feel, an autumn offer to sign.
Estate villas live under their rules: colour, fencing, greenery, and sometimes rights of way that carve up the land. Water, pool and access cost dear; real buildability is measured, not assumed. Home Select’s estate and building audit goes deep: at these prices, every mispriced item costs a negotiation.
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 Saint-Tropez, 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 (139 reviews), fees displayed, 100% on success.
Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Saint-Tropez, 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 Saint-Tropez. Many projects play out over two or three towns, and the brief allows for it from the first conversation.
