A little history
Built by the village's traders, the first ski tow in the commune, and also in the vallée du Champsaur, was inaugurated at Orcières on 10 January 1952. The leisure centre was created in 1980. In 1895, one of the last bears in the Alps was killed in an abandoned house in the hamlet of les Ranguis, where it had settled to spend the winter.

Prices by property type in Orcières
Prices by property type in Orcières
By property type in Orcières, studio at €2,364/m², T2 at €2,649/m², T3 at €2,441/m².
The T2 carries the highest price per square metre and the studio the lowest, a gap of 12 %. 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.
The studio is what changes hands most often here, with 37 sales over twelve months. It is therefore the type with the most reference points, and the one where a price is hardest to argue against.

Selling in Orcières
Pricing in Orcières starts by placing your property inside the €2,090 to €2,897 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 95 sales a year, Orcières 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 Orcières 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 Orcières
Reading the €2,090 to €2,897 band is a buyer’s main tool in Orcières. 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.
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.
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.
