Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer or Les Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer, abbreviated to Les Saintes-Maries or Les Saintes, is a French commune situated in the département of Bouches-du-Rhône in the region of Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur. Capital of the Camargue, it is also a place of pilgrimage and a seaside resort in Provence. Built around its church dating from the 11th and 12th centuries and long enclosed within a defensive wall, the commune still retains traces of this historic past in the layout of its often narrow lanes.
A little history
The oldest known mention of the site dates from the 4th century AD. It is attributed to the geographer and poet Avienus (305?-375?). Evoking several peoples of the region, he mentions an oppidum priscum Ra, with oppidum meaning fortress and priscum meaning ancient, giving "the ancient fortress Ra". Avienus saw in this the name of a site dedicated to Râ, the god of the Sun and father of all the Egyptian gods.

Selling in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer
Pricing in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer starts by placing your property inside the €4,036 to €5,600 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 77 sales a year, Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer 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 Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer 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 Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer
Reading the €4,036 to €5,600 band is a buyer’s main tool in Saintes-Maries-de-la-Mer. 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 down give a buyer room to discuss, provided the argument rests on comparable sales rather than on the trend itself.
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.
