How we calculate these figures

Data synchronized on 2026-10-29 15:46:22

We combine free public French data. No sponsored listings, no agency data.

House sale prices (DVF, French tax office)

Official deeds of house sales: actual median price per m² recorded on recent notarized transactions.

6,100 €/m² · 140 sales

Energy ratings (DPE, A to G, ADEME)

Certified energy audits per commune: average kWh/m²/year and rate of F/G thermal strainers subject to Loi Le Meur bans.

10.5% rated F or G (3,980 energy ratings)

Population and area (INSEE)

Official government geographic and demographic boundaries: INSEE code, census population, and cadastral area.

73,255 residents · 20 km²

Tourism demand

INSEE seasonal footfall, classified short-term rental occupancy surveys, and predictive local demand analytics.

Nights booked: 66% on average, 80% for well-run listings

How we get to 13.3%

Typical house: 115 m² × 6,100 €/m² = 701,500 €

Yearly rent: 365 nights × 80% booked × 320 € (3-bed) = 93,440 €

Gross yield: 93,440 € ÷ 701,500 € = 13.3%
