New real estate in Megève
In recent years, Megeve has become one of the most popular ski destinations. Every plot of land is therefore eagerly sought after by architects and developers dreaming of realising their visions. Building in mountain areas brings with it a large number of constraints, yet it is an ideal place to create a highly desirable lifestyle. Building a perfect home, a space dedicated to pleasure and reconnection with nature is one of the most appealing projects for architects in the tradition of Henry Jacques Le Même, the designer of the "ski chalet" style who is the creator of 250 chalets and hotels in Megève.
The new apartments for sale mainly consist of two or more bedrooms and are situated close to the slopes and the ski lifts. The property developers are proposing programmes that aim to meet the expectations of future holidaymakers, with all the necessary modern comforts and an architectural style rooted in nature and tradition.
Chalets, traditional real estate treasures
A popular winter resort since the 18th century, Megève is the original home of many chalets and residences designed especially for holidays.
The typical traditional chalet, with its steeply sloping stone roof, balconies, fireplace, and the sweet smell of wood, is still widely sought after by international buyers. The property market in Megeve is therefore highly competitive from the very first hours that these beautiful old chalets go on sale.
Impact of local town planning policies on the Megève property market
In 2014, the ALUR law abolished the land use coefficient or COS, which had led to a downturn in construction. Since then, the property market in Megeve has seen a marked upturn in interest from professional investors, and property transactions are on the increase.
As indicated in its 2016 report, the Megève PLU aims for "a more economical and balanced use of natural, urban, peri-urban and rural spaces". In this respect, the PADD (or Sustainable Planning and Development Project) states the objective of "opting for a mode of development that consumes less space". The new real estate programmes, therefore, aim to build vertically, to reduce their footprint while offering large living spaces. As Megève is a year-round resort, these measures also seek to facilitate the acquisition of primary residences for the inhabitants. Following the new PLU, the number of permits issued and floor space built increased by 400% between 2017 and 2018.
The restoration of existing buildings also opens up good investment prospects while making it possible to preserve the character of the past in style.

Tax advantages and attractive rental income
In Megève, the LMNP - or non-professional furnished rental - parahotel scheme allows owners to offer a wide range of services to their tenants while recovering sales tax. Guest services like beds made on arrival, cleaning during the stay, freshly prepared breakfast and a wide range of private concierge services are always appreciated by holidaymakers.
The rental income is often as high as the investment made. In Megève, the rental return is between 2.5 and 4% depending on the property, and this ensures that you can make a property purchase without compromising your investment.
