Portes du Soleil property management

Portes du Soleil, a promising real estate market

The Portes du Soleil is not only the largest ski domain in the Alps, but also the first French-Swiss cross-border ski resort. Located on the border between France and Switzerland, it offers incredible panoramic views and an incredible charm!

In total, this ski area has 600 kilometres of pistes and 12 village resorts. Its ideal location and dynamism attract many visitors throughout the year. Investing in the Portes du Soleil means investing in one of the region's most attractive tourist attractions! So it's a great idea if you want to rent out your property and make a substantial profit...

However, investing in rental properties takes a lot of time, and if you don't have this time, your project may not be as lucrative as it could be. At Emerald Stay, we offer a concierge service in the Portes du Soleil to help you on your way.

We'll take care of the entire management of your rental from A to Z, adapting to your schedule. We'll also advise you on how to structure your tax situation and improve the profitability of your property! In other words, all you have to do is enjoy your property whenever you want and collect your rent!

Property prices in the Portes du Soleil are still very attractive compared to other resorts such as Chamonix. Of course, the price per square metre is not the same in the 12 resorts that make up the area.

The Swiss resorts - Champery, Morgins, Torgon and Val-d'Illiez - remain the most expensive, with an average of CHF 7,419 (€7,700) per square metre for chalets and CHF 6,621 (€6,872) per square metre for apartments in Portes du Soleil.

On the French side, however, the resorts of Morzine, Avoriaz and Les Gets have similar figures, with an average of €6,718/m² for apartments and €8,960/m² for chalets.

On the other hand, Chatel, Montriond, Saint-Jean-d'Aulps, Abondance and La Chapelle-d'Abondance are much more affordable for property investment. They offer an average price per m² of €4,104 for an apartment and an average of €5,729/m² for a chalet.

A high-potential rental investment

Be careful though, because investing in the mountains requires you to consider a number of important factors. Visitors tend to rent properties at the foot of the slopes or close to ski lifts. They also look for a certain level of comfort. A property that offers top-of-the-range facilities and equipment, as well as uninterrupted views of snow-capped peaks, is more likely to be rented.

Our high-end concierge service at Portes du Soleil manages your property like a hotel. This innovative concept allows you to offer your tenants everything they've ever dreamed of, revolutionising seasonal rentals, maximising your rental income and freeing you from all your constraints.

Location is another factor to consider if you want to make the most of your rental investment. These days, winter in the mountains and summer by the sea is a thing of the past. Travellers come to the Alps all year round. So you need to choose a chalet or apartment in a resort that offers summer activities and remains vibrant all year round.

Some of the most popular resorts in the Portes du Soleil are Les Gets and Morzine. The resort of Chatel is also on the rise. This year-round destination, close to the Swiss border, has won a place in the hearts of tourists thanks to its year-round programme of activities. It is also popular with investors who find it financially rewarding, with property prices lower than in more upmarket resorts such as Courchevel.

Montriond is another ski resort that attracts families for both winter and summer holidays. It has direct access to the Portes du Soleil ski area and offers a wide range of activities for the summer months. Whether it is the lake for canoeing, fishing and swimming, the mountains for climbing, hiking and mountain biking, or the town centre for archery, tennis and historical or cultural visits, Montriond has a lot to offer.
