Fixed fees: what does that actually change?
3 assisted sales
50 properties under rental management
Almost all agencies in the valley charge a percentage of the sale price. Yet the work is identical: same photos, same viewings, same inspections, same notary paperwork. Only the bill changes.
We apply a fixed fee, announced at the first meeting and recorded as such in the mandate.
No proportional commission, no renegotiation at the end of the process, no unpleasant surprises in the agreement.
Inheritance, gifts, separation: a benchmark estimate
Not all sales begin with a choice. An inheritance to be divided among heirs, a donation to be prepared, a separation to be settled: in these situations, the value of the property is not just a commercial figure, it is a basis for negotiation between people.
We provide detailed, written valuation reports based on actual transactions in the area—not on asking prices, which are consistently higher than the final sale price. This document can be provided to your notary, lawyer, or other heirs.
We operate discreetly, and without any obligation to entrust us with the sale afterwards. Many owners contact us simply to find out the status of their property.
The Chamonix property market in 2026: what a seller needs to know
Chamonix remains one of the most strained markets in the French Alps: strong international demand — British, Swiss, Belgian, Scandinavian, North American — versus a supply structurally limited by available land and urban planning constraints.
For you, the seller, this translates into four realities:
The differences between sectors are considerable. Talking about a "price per square meter in Chamonix" is meaningless. Between a ground-floor apartment in Les Bossons and a south-facing top-floor apartment in the city center, the price can be double.
Seasonality is a real factor. Peak periods naturally generate more qualified visits. The sales calendar also plays a role.
Rental yield has become a key selling point. A large proportion of buyers purchase second homes with the intention of renting them out. A documented income history is worth more than a thousand words.
The Energy Performance Certificate (EPC) is closely scrutinized, particularly in older, often energy-inefficient, apartment buildings in the valley. A poor EPC rating doesn't necessarily prevent a sale, but it can be negotiated.
How we sell your property: six steps
1. Free and detailed estimate
2. Property Preparation: Enhancement Tips
3. Preparation of the file: Diagnostics, Carrez Law, condominium regulations
4. Targeted distribution: National and international portals, our website, our database of potential buyers
5. Viewings and qualification of buyers
6. Negotiation and follow-up until handover: Negotiation, preliminary agreement, fulfillment of suspensive conditions, coordination of notaries. A single point of contact from start to finish.
Sell or keep and rent? We'll give you both figures.
We are also rental property managers in the valley. This means that we know, in concrete terms, what your property generates in seasonal rentals — not in theory, but based on what we observe on comparable properties that we actually manage.
So before you sell, we'll give you two scenarios with figures: the likely selling price on one hand, and the net rental yield on the other. This includes situations where the conclusion is that it's better not to sell now.
This is an answer that a pure transaction agency cannot provide.
Is the estimate really free and without obligation?
Yes. It's done on-site, free of charge, and doesn't obligate you to anything. You remain free not to sell or to entrust the sale to another agency.
Is it necessary to sign an exclusive mandate?
No, it's not mandatory. We discuss it based on your property and your schedule, honestly explaining the advantages and limitations of each option.
How long does it take to sell in Chamonix?
A property that is properly valued and well-presented generally finds a buyer within a few weeks to a few months, depending on the area, the type of property, and the season. The main factor delaying the sale remains an inflated starting price.
Can I sell a property that is rented out as a seasonal rental?
Yes, and a history of rental income is often a strong selling point for investor buyers. We schedule viewings between stays so as not to disrupt your operations.
How do you estimate the value of my property?
We cross-reference the property's specific characteristics (surface area, condition, floor, exposure, view, amenities, energy performance certificate), its precise location, condominium fees, and above all, transactions actually signed on comparable properties — and not the advertised prices, which are always higher than the actual selling prices.
I live abroad, is it more complicated?
No, the sale is proceeding normally and we are managing it entirely remotely. However, non-resident taxation has specific rules regarding capital gains; your notary will calculate the figures for your particular case.
