DVF is published with a delay (registration/processing lag). We compute €/m² only for records with valid transaction value and built area, then aggregate by quarter using median/IQR (to reduce outliers). Use these figures as a directional indicator for trends and seasonality, not as an official appraisal. For a specific property, micro-location and building quality dominate.

Antibes property prices increased 4.8% in 2024. Cap d'Antibes remains supply-constrained with only 10-15 properties available at any time. Key trends:

  • Yacht owner demand: Strong correlation between superyacht sales and Port Vauban property
  • Family relocation: Post-pandemic shift from UK/US families choosing Antibes for schools
  • Old Town renaissance: Renovated properties commanding 20% premiums

Local insight: Properties on the eastern side of Cap d'Antibes get morning sun and views toward Nice/Italy. Western properties face Cannes and dramatic sunsets. Both are prized differently.
