Buyer’s agent
How our buyer’s agents find your next apartment or house in Tignes?
A buyer’s agent, chasseur immobilier in French, represents the buyer and only the buyer. In Tignes, where resale apartments pass through a few resort agencies and loyal owner networks before any portal, and where asking prices are set for buyers who sign at the end of a perfect week on the glacier, that independence is not a nicety; it is the difference between paying fair value and paying the seller’s optimism.
It begins with a search mandate. Rather than a form, we start with a long conversation: whether the home is for your own weeks or for a rental business, how many beds for how many skiers, the afternoon sun on the balcony, the walk to the lake or to the Val Claret lifts, the transfer from Bourg-Saint-Maurice station or from Geneva and Lyon airports, the weeks the property must earn to cover its charges, and the real budget once notaire fees and works are honestly accounted for. From that we write a precise brief and agree the perimeter, Le Lac, Val Claret, Le Lavachet, Tignes 1800 and Les Brévières, before a single property reaches your inbox.
Then the network goes to work. Our Montclair side activates its relationships across the Haute-Tarentaise: estate agents who tip trusted buyers first, notaires who quietly hold inventory, private sellers, and syndics who know which residences are about to come to market. Every candidate is cross-checked against the national DVF database of notarised sales, so we know the real value for the village and the residence, not the brochure price. You receive short, curated selections with our honest verdict, floor plans and video walk-throughs filmed on site. We view on your behalf and flag the deal-breakers, damp, a roof tired by snow loads, a punishing DPE rating, a copropriété in difficulty, an avalanche zone, before you book a flight.
Because our Ynspir architects sit at the same table, an apartment or chalet that needs work is assessed for renovation before you offer, with a realistic budget and the mountain rules, the PLU and the copropriété’s own regulations factored in. When you decide, we build the offer file, negotiate on results and handle the compromis de vente and the notaire in English. Found by Montclair, shaped by Ynspir, one mandate, your interest alone, from the first search to the finished home in Tignes.

Renovation project management
Ynspir runs the works end to end. The fee is calculated on the works budget and covers design, quotes, artisans and site supervision.
Starting rates. Your exact fee depends on the brief and on the scope of the works, and is agreed in writing before anything begins. No fee is due if we do not find your property.
