Buyer’s agent in Savoie

Savoie means the largest ski areas in the world, the Three Valleys and the Espace Killy, and, lower down, Lake Bourget and Chambéry, an hour from Lyon and Geneva. Home Select hunts two very different projects here: the resort chalet, in Courchevel, Méribel, Val Thorens, Val d’Isère or Tignes, and the year-round house around Aix-les-Bains and Chambéry, between the lake and the Bauges.

Why use a buyer’s agent in Savoie?

Home Select, a buyer’s agent in Savoie 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 Savoie often sell without ever being advertised: that is where the hunt decides. Fees 100% on success.

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:

  • Les Menuires and Saint-Martin-de-Belleville
  • Les Arcs and La Plagne
  • La Rosière and Sainte-Foy-Tarentaise
  • Le Bourget-du-Lac and the west shore of the lake
  • The Bauges and the Savoie side of the Chartreuse

On the ground

What changes in Savoie

  • In a resort, the address is read to the metre: ski-in ski-out access, exposure and the level of the village (Courchevel 1850 or Le Praz, Val d’Isère or Le Fornet) make considerable gaps for the same surface.
  • The great chalets often sell off-market, through the resorts’ own networks; new developments are reserved off-plan and studied with their charges and management included.
  • Around Lake Bourget and Chambéry, the market is that of a year-round life: schools, the TGV station, the hospital, and a demand from Lyon and Geneva that does not weaken.

The Home Select set-up

How does Home Select operate in Savoie?

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.

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.

The Confidential offer

What Home Select is asked first

Do you cover the whole of Savoie?

Yes. Courchevel, Méribel, Val Thorens, Val d’Isère, Tignes, Aix-les-Bains and Chambéry have their own page; Les Menuires, Saint-Martin-de-Belleville, Les Arcs, La Plagne or La Rosière are hunted on request, with the same method and the same fees.

Courchevel, Méribel or Val d’Isère?

Three resorts, three uses. Courchevel for the address and the services, Méribel for the village and families at the heart of the Three Valleys, Val d’Isère and Tignes for high-altitude skiing and the long season. Home Select helps you decide on your own criteria, then searches the chosen resort and its neighbours.

What should be checked before buying a chalet in a resort?

The co-ownership rules and charges, the real access to the slopes, the condition of the roof and insulation, the local rules on building and furnished rentals, and the works voted or to come. Home Select checks them before you visit, not after.

How much does a buyer’s agent cost in Savoie?

For a median apartment in Tignes, 30 sqm sold for around €300,000 over the 12 months to end of June 2026, Home Select charges €10,000 incl. VAT with the Exclusive offer, its minimum, plus 10% incl. VAT of the reduction obtained on the asking price. The fee is only due on success, on the day of signing at the notary’s office: no file fee, no deposit, nothing if the search does not succeed.

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 Savoie

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