By property type in Douvaine, T2 at €4,625/m², T3 at €3,845/m², studio at €4,545/m², T4 at €3,553/m².
The T2 carries the highest price per square metre and the T4 the lowest, a gap of 30 %. Small units usually cost more per square metre than large ones, because the price of a kitchen and a bathroom is spread over fewer metres.

Selling in Douvaine
Pricing in Douvaine starts by placing your property inside the €3,511 to €4,762 band rather than on the median alone. The median describes the middle of the market; condition, floor, outdoor space and energy rating decide where in the band you sit.
With 104 sales a year, Douvaine is regular without being deep. Positioning matters more here than in a dense market, because a buyer who steps back is not immediately replaced.
Briveo values your Douvaine property from the same DVF file, keeping only sales of comparable properties closest to your address, free of charge and with no obligation, then supports the sale through to the deed.
Buying in Douvaine
Reading the €3,511 to €4,762 band is a buyer’s main tool in Douvaine. A property at the bottom is not a bargain and one at the top is not a rip-off, the band measures how different the properties are, not how well they are priced.
Acquisition costs are budgeted on top of the price, around 8 % on an existing property, around 3 % on a new one. These are orders of magnitude; the notary computes the exact amount.
Prices moving up narrow the room for negotiation without closing it, a property that has been on the market a long time is negotiable whatever the trend says.
