Collioure, Occitanie
Occitanie · Pyrénées-Orientales
The jewel of the Côte Vermeille is a miniature market: a few streets between the royal castle and the bell tower, fishermen houses turned collectors’ addresses, and demand far exceeding supply. In Collioure, every sale is an event, and most are never advertised.

Collioure at a glance
On the ground
In 2025, 100 sales were recorded in Collioure: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses.
The median for apartments is up +21% since 2021, +8% in the last year alone: the trend holds, and sellers know it.
Sales range from €3,300/m² to €8,800/m²: address and condition make the price.
Collioure is a miniature and yet global market: a few streets between the royal castle and the bell tower, fishermen houses become collectors’ addresses, French and international demand far exceeding supply. Every sale is an event, and most are never advertised.
Value is measured metre by metre: the view over the bay, the terrace, the access to the water, the exposed stone. The old Catalan building stock (schist, thick walls, stair-lanes) demands a serious audit: structures, damp, sometimes ancient co-ownership charges.

Micro-markets
Here everything plays out at the scale of a lane: every address has its light, its stairway, its own piece of the bay.
The old quarter between the Notre-Dame-des-Anges church and the royal castle: coloured fishermen houses, stair-lanes, the bay at the end of every street. The rarest market of the Côte Vermeille, where sales are counted in units a year.
The quarter on the other side of the Douy ravine: more affordable village houses, artists’ workshops, the Ouille beach below. A character market, prized by village lovers who accept a few extra minutes on foot.
The slopes above the village, between vine terraces and schist walls: villas and houses with plunging bay views, the calm of the vines ten minutes from the port. A confidential market, almost entirely by private agreement.
The neighbouring commercial and pleasure port, five minutes away: character houses around the port, year-round activity, softer values than Collioure for the same coast. The natural alternative for many projects.
The coast southwards: Banyuls-sur-Mer and its vines facing the sea, Cerbère and its coves, Le Racou the wild beach. A family, discreet market, where every village has its faithful and its hidden addresses.
Targeting precisely
Le Mouré and the old centre: a characterful flat or house steps from the bays, the royal castle and the buzz. The most prized segment, often without parking.
The heights and the vineyard: a villa or flat with a Mediterranean view, quiet, minutes from the centre. For those after the panorama and the calm.
Le Faubourg, Port-Vendres and the côte Vermeille: a more affordable family house, close to the vineyards and amenities, for regular year-round use.
Three buying profiles to place your own in Collioure. Orientation pointers, which your property finder refines with you at the brief.
Art de vivre
The light that struck Matisse and Derain in 1905 has not moved: it still falls on the facades of Le Mouré, on the bell tower of Notre-Dame-des-Anges, a former lighthouse standing in the water, on the nets of the Boramar. It lingers at Les Templiers, the café whose walls hold a century of painters, then at the museum of modern art on the hillside. In summer, sardanas are danced facing the bay; at Easter, the Sanch procession winds through the lanes.
The rest belongs outdoors: the coastal path runs towards Port-Vendres and the Paulilles cove, the vineyard tracks climb to Fort Saint-Elme and the Madeloc tower between schist walls. At the Wednesday and Sunday market, anchovies from the Roque and Desclaux houses sit beside Roussillon peaches and the wines of the AOC. Autumn brings the harvest down the terraces; winter brings the tramontane wind and a village returned to its residents.
Non-resident buyers
Collioure is served by Perpignan-Rivesaltes airport, 40 minutes away; Girona, in Spain, and Montpellier are about 1 h 30 away, which widens the choice of flights considerably. By rail, the Perpignan TGV station links Paris in about 4 h 50 and Barcelona in about 1 h 20, and Collioure has its own stop on the coastal line, a rare advantage for a village of this size.
Collioure draws international buyers seeking authenticity rather than glamour, often as a second home. Proximity to Perpignan and Spain eases connections, but everyday services remain village-scale. Buying here means accepting that scale, and checking what it implies: access, parking, staircases, and what the village becomes in February.
The market has two peaks: spring, April to June, and the September return. The summer high season, marked by heavy tourist crowding, slows viewings without easing pressure on a tight supply. For a remote buyer, May-June and then September-October offer a pleasant climate and easier logistics. The grape-harvest late season and winter can open opportunities on homes that have sat for several months.

Three projects, three markets
The same market does not read the same way depending on what you have come for. Here is what each of the three projects means on the ground.
Collioure is a miniature market, held by very strong tourist demand and a supply of a few streets. Short-term letting works, within a communal and building framework to be investigated before the offer. But the local issue is elsewhere: in a protected old centre, works and facades obey rules that decide the real cost of a property.
This is the vocation of the market: a fisherman’s house in Le Mouré or Le Faubourg, for summer and the shoulder seasons. Every sale is an event, and most are never advertised. To investigate: access, the stairs, damp in old walls, parking and the consents required for works in a protected sector.
Collioure lives intensely for six months and contracts in winter: that is the choice to make with open eyes. Perpignan, half an hour away, provides the secondary schools, the hospital and the station. Neighbouring Port-Vendres offers a more continuous life and more measured values. For a year-round project, we always look at both.
Off-market
A share of the finest sales in Collioure completes without ever being listed. The Home Select network of 15,000 professional partners surfaces more than 100 properties every day before publication, and Home Select also approaches owners directly when the setting calls for it.

Six precise movements, the same for every search, from the brief to the handover of the keys:

A written brief, and a search launched within the week.
We cover the whole market: published listings, and above all what is never displayed anywhere. Our network of 15,000 professional partners surfaces more than 100 properties for us every day before they go on sale, and we approach owners directly when the setting calls for it.
More than 100 off-market properties surfaced every day by the network.
Every lead is verified, visited or analysed for you: commented video, technical sheet, first figures. You only travel for properties that truly match the brief.
3 viewings on average, instead of 40.
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.
6% obtained on average off the asking price.
Preliminary contract read line by line, surveys, co-ownership rules, charges, easements: every document is checked before you commit. Local points of vigilance, from the coast to the mountains, are in our checklists.
Every document checked before you commit.
We stay by your side through to the signing before the notaire, and after: contractors, formalities, moving. Our work ends when you are settled in, not when the deed is signed.

Advice from Home Select
Thick walls, rising damp, shared roofs: have a professional familiar with Catalan building stock inspect before you position yourself. In the stair-lanes every work site is supplied by hand; price that carrying cost into your offer.
In the old centre, many small co-ownerships run on ancient rules, sometimes without a professional managing agent. Ask for the minutes, the state of shared facades and roofs, and find out who actually maintains the stairway and the networks.
Return on a tramontane day and picture the quays in August: October’s calm says nothing of summer. Check parking, access and noise in high season before deciding between Le Mouré, Le Faubourg and the heights.

Frequently asked questions
Because the local market has its own rules. A tiny supply: permanent monitoring and the local network make up almost all opportunities. A property finder works for you alone, on the buyer’s side: daily monitoring, access to off-market sales around Le Mouré and the old centre and Le Faubourg, 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 Collioure stands at €5,300/m² for an apartment. The highest-priced sector in our survey: Banyuls-sur-Mer, €3,500/m² median. These medians are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.
In 2025, 2 rooms traded at a median of €5,600/m² per sqm, on a median surface of 40 sqm (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, millésime avril 2026, ventes 2025). A median home of the bracket changes hands around €224,000; 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.
Yes, but rarely through listings: the houses of Le Mouré and Le Faubourg are often handed over directly. We hunt through the local network and direct approach to owners.
Yes: Port-Vendres, Banyuls-sur-Mer, Argelès and Le Racou are part of the perimeter. Many projects arbitrate between Collioure and its more accessible neighbours.
In 2025, 100 sales were recorded in Collioure: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. The median for apartments is up +21% since 2021, +8% in the last year alone: the trend holds, and sellers know it.
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 Collioure, the monitoring covers Le Mouré and the old centre and Le Faubourg 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 Collioure, 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 Collioure, the monitoring covers Le Mouré and the old centre and Le Faubourg first: that is often where the unfindable property is.
It depends on use. Le Mouré puts the village at your door, with summer bustle and no parking: suited to short stays lived on foot. The heights offer calm, the view over the bay and a garage, precious year round. Le Faubourg, near the Ouille beach, holds the balance between the two.
A minuscule supply: character houses of Le Mouré and the old centre facing the bay, village houses of Le Faubourg on the other bank of the Douy, villas of the heights between schist terraces and vineyard. The view over the bay creates major value gaps, metre by metre. Port-Vendres and the Vermeille coast, from Banyuls to Le Racou, extend the hunt with more breathing room.
The old Catalan fabric: schist structures, damp, narrow accesses and renovation costs that change the real price of a seductive house. An old co-ownership is weighed, rules and charges included. And a property on this coast is tested in every season: what enchants in June must stay liveable when the village folds in on itself in February.
Families from Toulouse, Lyon or Paris seeking a holiday house to hand down, art lovers attached to the village’s fauve history, European retirees faithful to the Vermeille coast. The supply being what it is, permanent watching and the local network make up nearly all the opportunities.
Seasonal letting finds a faithful market here, April to October, framed by local rules. Many houses of Le Mouré and Le Faubourg let in summer and live year-round the rest of the time. In an old village, the rules are checked before the purchase: short lets are not granted everywhere.
The Paris-Perpignan train then twenty minutes of TER: the coast is viewed in a late day or a weekend. One walk covers the village, one day the coast, Port-Vendres to Banyuls. Properties being scarce, the list is built by watching before the trip: Collioure is not viewed from a catalogue, it is answered.
The old Catalan fabric, schist and thick walls, asks for structure, damp and access: the lanes ease neither scaffolds nor deliveries, and costs feel it. The damp winter tests the roofs. Everything is costed before the offer: in the village, a seductive house and a sound house do not always look alike.
To hunt in Collioure, 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 (130+ reviews), fees displayed, 100% on success.
Home Select 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. Home Select is paid on success only: nothing is due until you have bought.
