You are thinking of buying an apartment in order to hire To build up a supplement of income, with the approach of retirement. But where to invest, in order to maximize your rental profitability? Published by the National Housing Information Agency (Anil) this Friday, March 14, the study on rent levels In France provides interesting response elements. Within the agglomerations studied by the anil, the median rent of a three -piece, the type of property most frequently rented, varies indeed From simple to triple : He culminates at 24.1 euros per square meter in Paris while it is less than 7 euros in Châteauroux, in Indre.

Logically, the highest levels of rent are observed in large metropolises, as well as in dynamic spaces on the demographic and economic levels, such as theEs Atlantic and Mediterranean coastline and French Genevan. Without reaching the capital’s record, the Parisian agglomeration is characterized by “Particularly high rents”with a median at 15.4 euros per square meter for a three room, a consequence of a housing request much higher than the offer, explains the Anil. For this same reason for “tension” of the housing market, rents are also raised in the Alps, near the Swiss borderat 14.2 euros per square meter in the agglomeration of Annemasse and at 12.8 euros in that of Annecy. THE Mediterranean periphery Also displays among the most expensive rents in France, especially in the Nice agglomeration, on the Var coastline and in the metropolis of Aix-Marseille.

Supervised rents and tax on vacant accommodation

In contrast, the agglomerations where the levels of rents are the lowest, that is to say less than 8 euros per square meterare those of Châteauroux, Alençon, Saint-Étienne, Mâcon, Chalon-sur-Saône, Alès and Montauban. These agglomerations, which mostly have less than 150,000 inhabitants, have the common point of a demographic and economic dynamism otherwise less important than large metropolises, and the supply and demand for housing are quite balanced.

In terms of the evolution of rents, measured between January 1, 2021 and January 1, 2023, the increases are moderate in the most “tense” agglomerations because The level of rents is supervised there When relocation or renewal of the lease. The donors must thus rely on the reference index of the rents (IRL), determined quarterly by INSEE, to reassess their rent. Lille, Grenoble, Aix-en-Provence/Marseille, Montpellier even displayed rent developments lower than the IRL because they are affected by the tax on vacant dwellings, which pushes the owners to put their rental property at all costs. Evolutionary rates lower than the IRL are also observed in cities of smaller agglomerations, characterized by poorly tense rental markets and particularly low rents, such as Arras, Montbéliard, Besançon, Chalon-sur-Saône or Mâcon. Conversely, the highest increases concern cities located outside the zoning of the tax on vacant housing, like Lorient, Vannes, Saint-Malo, Vitré, La Roche-sur-Yon and Les Sables d’Olonne.
