Why invest in Chamonix

The good reasons why to invest in the Real Estate in Chamonix

Our Advice on Property Investment

The size of the Chamonix Valley offers extensive opportunities for the acquisition of building land and new or recently renovated properties in a variety of locations that offer unobstructed views, proximity to the resort centre and its amenities, or the tranquility of a more remote setting.

Whilst prices per square metre are higher for luxury properties in the centre of town, or with a southerly aspect, they are more affordable in areas such as Savoy, parts of Les Praz, and Chamonix Sud.

Chamonix offers good opportunities for short term profitability by renting properties out via specialised agents. Property developers are boosting the market with new chalet and apartment projects which are ideal for rental management.

Rental Income Driven by Multi-seasonality

Chamonix appeals to all mountain lovers in winter and summer alike.

In winter, the off-piste terrain and famous peaks attract a cosmopolitan clientele in search of authentic mountain experiences. The resort offers a variety of views of the Mont Blanc massif, with accesses for beginners and amateurs, and for all preferences. The lively après-ski scene and extensive wellness activities appeal to less sporty or more contemplative types.

In summer, the wide range of outdoor activities on offer, such as walking, mountain biking, climbing, golf and swimming, ensures that the resort is just as busy as in the winter season. Chamonix is also developing an increasingly varied range of cultural activities.

In an increasingly uncertain investment climate, acquiring an apartment or chalet as a secondary residence in Chamonix is a safe option for potential buyers. They can look forward to a stress-free and secure leisure investment in an historic resort with guaranteed long term appeal.

The mountains have become a reassuring environment in which to build an investment portfolio  close to the great outdoors. Surrounded by breathtaking scenery, the resort of Chamonix allows you to make a serene, pleasurable and profitable investment. 

Where to Buy in Chamonix

The pedestrianised resort centre offers renovated apartments in period buildings, convenient for shops, amenities, and transport. Savoy, Les Planards, and Les Praz are also reasonably close to the centre and offer more immediate access to skiing. Much of the accommodation in these areas is made up of apartments in purpose-built blocks or large chalets divided into several serviced units.

The northern end of the valley offers a good selection of exceptional properties in peaceful locations, such as old renovated farms and serviced individual chalets for larger groups.
