MGM Constructor

What MGM Constructor does

MGM Constructor is a French mountain real estate developer founded in 1963 and headquartered in Bouvante with operational offices in Annecy, specializing in the construction and sale of new-build residential properties across 17+ resort destinations in Savoie and Haute-Savoie. The company's product portfolio comprises chalets and apartment residences in ski destinations including Méribel, La Plagne, Flaine, Valmorel, Samoëns, Les Gets, and Le Grand-Bornand, with entry-level apartments priced from approximately €300,000 TTC and prestige chalets reaching €5,000,000 TTC. Properties are offered under two acquisition structures: traditional copropriété (condominium ownership) and résidence de tourisme (tourism residence eligible for LMNP/LMP tax regimes), giving the company exposure to both lifestyle buyers and tax-driven real estate investors. Distinctive amenities include ski-in/ski-out positioning, traditional Savoyard architecture using noble materials, and the proprietary Spa Montagnes du Monde® wellness concept.

The company operates three wholly-owned operational divisions: MGM&Vous (personalized advisory and client relationship management with a dedicated contact center and online portal), MGM Transactions (resale services for existing MGM properties), and Spa Montagnes du Monde® (branded wellness facilities available to property owners at select residences). Distribution is direct-to-consumer through resort showrooms, on-site advisors, the bilingual corporate website, and property launch events; an ambassador referral program rewards existing owners for successful introductions. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent, venture capital, or public market presence, and runs an integrated marketing operation across Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, email, and content-driven white papers targeting both French and international prospective buyers.

The business model is one-time unit sale at delivery, with unit prices varying substantially by property type, ski domain, and finish level; no recurring software, subscription, or rental revenue stream is disclosed beyond optional managed-rental services tied to the LMNP-eligible tourism residences. The company employs 101-250 people, has historically delivered over 100 programs across its Northern Alps footprint, and currently markets 19+ active programs with delivery dates extending from immediate availability through 2028.

Broad incumbents

• Altarea (Cogedim): Altarea is a major French real estate group whose Cogedim brand is one of the country's largest residential developers. Cogedim has mountain/tourism residence programs overlapping with MGM's resorts, but operates across a far broader portfolio (mixed-use, retail, offices) rather than specialising in the Alpine niche.
• Nexity: France's largest residential developer, with new-build programs in French mountain resorts as part of a national portfolio. Comparable on the residential-for-sale construct-and-sell model, though Nexity is far more diversified geographically and across asset classes than MGM.
• Bouygues Immobilier: Major French residential developer with a national footprint that includes mountain resort new-build programs. Overlaps with MGM on the construct-and-sell residential model and LMNP-eligible tourism residences, but at materially larger scale and lower specialisation in the luxury Alpine segment.
• Kaufman & Broad: French homebuilder (subsidiary of Natixis) with national residential development activity that includes mountain destinations. Overlaps with MGM on the new-housing-for-sale model and the investor/secondary-home buyer segments, though at broader geographic and price-tier scope.
• Vinci Immobilier: Residential development arm of the Vinci group, active across France including Alpine resorts. Comparable on new-build residential-for-sale and tourism residence programs, but with a national and diversified product portfolio rather than MGM's focused Alpine specialisation.
• Pierre & Vacances Center Parcs: Operator and developer of branded vacation residences in French mountain and coastal resorts. Comparable to MGM on the 'résidence de tourisme' / managed-tourism-residence concept and LMNP investor angle, but operates at much larger scale and across broader geographies (and with an operator-driven rather than constructor-driven model).

Direct peers

• Cimalpes: Cimalpes is a specialist French Alpine real estate agency and developer active across many of the same resorts as MGM (Méribel, Courchevel, Val d'Isère, Les Gets, Morzine). It competes head-to-head with MGM in luxury mountain chalet and apartment sales, sharing target buyer (HNW secondary-home and LMNP investors) and product positioning (ski-in/ski-out, premium finishes).
• Barnes: Barnes is a luxury real estate network with deep French Alpine presence (Megève, Courchevel, Méribel, Val d'Isère, Chamonix). It overlaps directly with MGM on prestige chalets and luxury apartments, and targets the same affluent secondary-home buyer, including international HNW purchasers.
• Megève Sotheby's International Realty: Affiliated with Sotheby's International Realty, this agency specialises in luxury mountain real estate across the Haute-Savoie resorts, including Megève and surrounding Aravis/Giffre stations where MGM also operates (Le Grand-Bornand, Manigod, Samoëns). Direct overlap in the prestige Alpine chalet and apartment segment.
• Edouard Denis: French homebuilder and developer (now part of the Woodeum group) with a mountain/resort product line offering new-build apartments and chalets in French ski resorts. Directly comparable to MGM on construction-and-sale of new residential units in Alpine locations, including tourism residence programs.
