2023 Paris Real Estate Update: The Evolution of Prices in Paris Apartments - Modest Slowdown

Along with always being on the lookout for the perfect apartments in Paris, our team keeps a close eye on the real estate market. If you're thinking of buying a Paris apartment, you'll want to know the latest news and trends for 2023. While the prices for apartments in Paris have increased in the past four years on average between 4% and 7% per year, the recent increases in interest rates, caution by banks and global instability have temporarily stalled the market.

What this means is that apartments are slower to sell for the first time in years, and we are seeing selective price reductions for average apartments. Instead, some would-be sellers are simply not listing their apartments for sale, and are waiting a return of optimism in the market. For the properties that do come on the market there are fine opportunities for buyers. Read more about the 2023 property market here.

2020 Paris Real Estate: Paused Until The World Returns to Normal

2020 started out strongly for Paris real estate, and the market was on a pat for an overall 7% increase in prices. Then the first French lockdown was implemented in late spring, to combat the spread of Covid-19. All went quiet, and many transactions were cancelled or put on hold until buyers had more visibility about the future. When businesses re-opened in late summer, the market picked up quickly, with especially strong interest from foreigners. Like us, they feel Paris prices are attractive and will be headed higher.

In the meantime, the latest lockdown at the end of October has frozen the market again. See our analysis of the current situation for Paris real estate here. For the first time in years, we’re seeing a few beautiful properties sit on the market - and prices are more negotiable than before.
