Buyer’s agent in Provence

From Aix-en-Provence to the calanques coastline, Provence is the first territory Home Select opened outside Paris: its founder lives in the Aix countryside. Private mansions, bastides, seafront villas and country mas compose a market of scarcity, where the finest sales close before any listing.

Your project

Your purchase

  • The written offer binds.A written offer, accepted as it stands, forms the sale: it carries a short validity and your conditions, the loan first. We draft it and defend it, complete file in hand.
  • Ten days to change your mind.After the preliminary contract, ten days to withdraw from the day after its notification, no reason needed: the moment to read the surveys and co-ownership minutes, which we go through with you line by line.
  • Three to four months to the keys.A loan condition of at least a month, the town’s pre-emption right for two months, then the final deed: we hold the dates with the notaire.
  • Notaire fees.Around 7 to 8% of the price for an existing property, of which nearly 5.81% are duties paid to the State and local authorities, 2 to 3% for a new build: to budget on top of the price.
  • Every year after that.Property tax on 1 January, the second-home residence tax in November, sometimes increased in high-demand areas, charges, upkeep, keeping an eye on the house: the budget of a second home goes beyond the price.
The 47 steps of a purchase

Your area

  • View in spring.When the light tells you everything and owners still receive visitors; in summer, Provence can no longer be viewed.
  • Prices.Depending on the town, from €2,300/m² to €9,300/m² in median over the 12 months to end of June 2026, for the 24 towns of the area with their own page.
  • Bespoke too.Beyond the towns with their own page, we also hunt the Luberon (Bonnieux, Ménerbes, Lacoste) · Les Baux-de-Provence, Fontvieille and Le Paradou · L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue · Toulon, Hyères and Porquerolles.
  • On the ground.Off-market is the norm for mas, bastides and character properties: everything flows through local networks.
  • Your buyer’s agent.One point of contact in Provence, from the first viewing to the signing, who replies within 24 working hours, with the network of 15,000 partners behind.

Our services

  • Between stays.Our concierge service lets the tradesmen in, checks after every storm or frost, prepares your arrival, and you decide on photos: a house looked after from afar does not sleep.
  • 100 off-market properties a day.Our 15,000 partners, agents, notaires and managing agents, bring us at least 100 properties before they go on sale, and a watch over 1,700 listing sites covers the published market: 15% of the properties our clients buy are found off-market, 25% above €2m.
  • Three viewings, not forty.Our clients view 3 properties on average before buying, about 15 hours of their time, against 40+ viewings and 150 hours on their own: every lead is pre-visited, filmed and costed, you only travel for the decisive viewing.
  • Paid 100% on success.2.5% of the net seller price with the Exclusive Offer (minimum €10,000 incl. VAT), 1.5% with the Confidential Offer from €2m, plus 10% of the negotiation obtained: nothing is due until the deed is signed, the Hoguet law forbids it.
  • 6% on average.We negotiate on the prices actually paid, published by the tax administration, not on asking prices: 6% on average off the seller’s price, measured over more than 1,200 purchases.

Why use a buyer’s agent in Provence?

Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Provence since 2011, works exclusively for the buyer: watching listed and off-market properties, screening at the visit, negotiating on real prices. The rarest homes in Provence often sell without ever being advertised: that is where the hunt decides. Fees 100% on success.

View the fees

Tailor-made

Beyond the city pages

The hunt does not stop at the pages of this site. Home Select also covers, tailor-made and with the same method:

  • the Luberon (Bonnieux, Ménerbes, Lacoste)
  • Les Baux-de-Provence, Fontvieille and Le Paradou
  • L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue
  • Toulon, Hyères and Porquerolles

On the ground

What changes in Provence

  • Off-market is the norm for mas, bastides and character properties: everything flows through local networks.
  • Agricultural and wine-growing servitudes, protected sectors and zones: every file demands a serious audit.
  • A market of national and international second homes, which buys fast when the property is right.

The Home Select set-up

How does Home Select operate in Provence?

Home Select has guided more than 1,200 buyers since 2011, and its leadership runs your search. On the ground, Home Select activates its network of 15,000 professional partners, who surface properties before they reach the open market. Properties are first seen on a video pre-viewing: you only travel for the decisive viewings, grouped into a single trip.

Provence is Home Select’s second home ground: its founder lives in the Aix countryside, and this territory is the first opened outside Paris.

Home Select is building its national network city by city, and says so plainly: from day one you get the method, the network and the negotiation; a dedicated local finder takes over your file as each territory opens.

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

What Home Select is asked first

Do you cover the Luberon and the Alpilles?

Yes, in full: Lourmarin, Gordes, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Eygalières and Maussane-les-Alpilles have their dedicated page, and Home Select hunts Bonnieux, Ménerbes, Les Baux-de-Provence and the neighbouring villages tailor-made, with the same method.

Why is Provence your first territory outside Paris?

Because Home Select’s founder lives in the Aix countryside and covers the area himself. Provence therefore benefits from both the national desk and a regular presence on the ground.

What are property prices in Provence in 2026?

Based on actual recorded sales (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, October 2026 release, 12 months to end of June 2026), the market in Provence ranges from €2,300/m² (Avignon) to €8,800/m² (Eygalières) in medians. These are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.

Is the property market in Provence active?

Over the 12 months to end of June 2026, 19,704 sales were recorded in Provence across the cities surveyed by Home Select, led by Marseille (12,625 sales) and Aix-en-Provence (2,310 sales). A living market, where reading the micro-markets finely decides everything.

Which cities do you cover in Provence?

29 cities have their dedicated page in Provence: Puyricard, Éguilles, Aix-en-Provence, Calas, Meyreuil, Le Tholonet, Saint-Marc-Jaumegarde, Vauvenargues, Beaurecueil, Châteauneuf-le-Rouge, Rousset, Trets, Peynier, Fuveau, Belcodène, La Bouilladisse, Marseille, Carnoux-en-Provence, Cassis, La Ciotat, Saint-Cyr-sur-Mer, Bandol, Sanary-sur-Mer, Avignon, Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, Maussane-les-Alpilles, Eygalières, Gordes and Lourmarin. Beyond them, the Luberon (Bonnieux, Ménerbes, Lacoste), Les Baux-de-Provence, Fontvieille and Le Paradou, as well as L’Isle-sur-la-Sorgue and their neighbours are hunted tailor-made, with the same method and the same success-only fees.

What are your fees in Provence?

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

What happens next

  1. A buyer’s agent reads your request and answers within one working day.
  2. A first confidential conversation: how you will use the property, the real budget, the non-negotiable criteria, the timing.
  3. A written brief, and a search started within the week. Nothing is due until you have bought.

Your project in Provence

A first confidential conversation, with no commitment. A buyer’s agent answers within one working day.
