ABOUT DOMOSNO
Discover Your Ideal Ski Property
Discover new-build and resale ski chalets and apartments across the French Alps with Domosno.
Trusted experts since 2005.
At Domosno, we’ve been selling ski properties in the French Alps since 2005.
From new-build apartments in Alpe d’Huez to chalets in Morzine and Megève, we help buyers find homes that offer lifestyle, income, and long-term value.
Our curated listings feature properties in top resorts, including Courchevel, Tignes, and Saint-Gervais-les-Bains.
Why DOMOSNO?
At Domosno, our name blends the Latin word Domus — meaning “home” — with our deep passion for the snow-covered landscapes of the French Alps.
We know that buying property, especially abroad, can feel overwhelming. That’s why we apply rigorous due diligence before recommending any new development. Each listing is assessed for:
Location quality and market demand
Developer reputation and project history
Building permits and financing status
Rental yield and passive income potential
Long-term resale value and associated risks
Unlike stocks, bonds, or crypto, an alpine property offers tangible, long-term value where to build memories. With strong demand, limited supply, and year-round lifestyle appeal, the ski real estate in the French Alps remains one of the smartest and most enjoyable investments you can make.

Whether you’re visiting in person or need a virtual viewing, our network ensures you’ll receive expert, local support.
Want to discuss your ski property plans? Let's chat...
We can meet on-site or in London, or via Google Meet / Skype (99% of our clients go for the latter as it is faster and more convenient). We can share our screen, show you floor plans, etc, and you can even be that lady below.
Some Quick FAQs
Yes, there are no restrictions for foreigners purchasing property in France. Whether you are an EU or non-EU resident, you can freely buy and own real estate — including ski properties — with full legal rights.
Not very much to be fair. UK citizens can still buy property in France post-Brexit. However, your stay is limited to 90 days in any 180-day period unless you apply for a long-stay visa. This doesn’t affect your right to own or rent out your property. And any non-French resident is limited to 6 months/year maximum anyway (unless they wish to become French tax residents).
New-builds offer major advantages, such as:
Lower notary fees (approx. 2–2.5%)
Better energy efficiency (therefore easier resale + possibility to let your property)
10-year structural guarantee
Possibility to reclaim 20% VAT if rented out under certain conditions
Buying off-plan involves signing a reservation contract, followed by a VEFA contract (sale in future state of completion). Payments are made in instalments as the construction progresses. Domosno guides you at every step, with contracts and legal help in English.
Yes, in most cases, for new-build properties — if you rent out your new-build property with hotel-style services (like cleaning, linen, check-in), you may be eligible to reclaim the full 20% VAT. This is a major financial benefit and one of the reasons new builds are so attractive.
