The housing shortage in Bordeaux is extreme

 

We speak of a housing shortage when the rental market experiences an imbalance between supply and demand. In short, tenants often struggle to find furnished accommodation.

 

As in nearly 60% of cities in France, Bordeaux suffers from a very strong and even extreme shortage of furnished accommodation: there is at least twice as much demand as supply.

 

We count in Bordeaux about 4 times more demand than offer.

 

What type of accommodation to choose to stay in Bordeaux ? 

 

The type of accommodation is defined by two main criteria.

In real estate jargon, housing types are categorized according to what is called an attribute (T1, T2, T3, T4, etc.). This attribute indicates the number of living rooms: the living room and the bedroom(s). Thus, a T1 apartment is a dwelling which is composed of only one room, a T2 apartment which contains two rooms etc.

We can also categorize the types of accommodation according to the mode of rental. We will then find the following types of accommodation: entire accommodation, shared accommodation, residence, homestay, accommodation in exchange for services, CROUS, etc.

  • 45% of furnished accommodation offered to Bordeaux are studios or T1

  • 17% of the furnished rental offer in the world capital of wine concerns apartments T3 or more

 

What surface for a furnished apartment in Bordeaux? 

The type of accommodation only indicates the number of rooms and not the size of the apartment. Thus, a T1 apartment can be larger than a T3 apartment. It is therefore necessary to take an interest in its surface! 

  • 27% of accommodations is less than 40m²

  • The size of 55% of accommodations is between 40 and 99m²

  • It is necessary to count a surface of more than 100m² for 18% of rental apartments in Bordeaux

 

What is the average rent for renting a furnished apartment in Bordeaux? 

The average rent per m² is 16€/sq.m. A tenant will have to provide on average 830€/month to stay in a furnished apartment in Bordeaux. 

It is necessary to count a budget, charges included, of:

  • 500€/month for a studio or a one-bedroom apartment,

  • 650€/month for a two-bedroom apartment,

  • 830€/month for a T3 apartment, including the entire accommodation offered for shared accommodation.

Rents for a furnished apartment in Bordeaux or in its periphery vary greatly depending on the location and type of housing.

 

Where to find a furnished apartment in Bordeaux?

To find your apartment in Bordeaux, you obviously have to choose its location. We advise you to check the proximity of your accommodation to your place of work or study, the metro station... and the neighborhoods that attract you!

 

The Golden Triangle, the most prestigious district

 

The Golden Triangle was formed in the 18th century around the Notre-Dame church. This district was born thanks to the architect Chalifour in 1790. It is the most prestigious district of Bordeaux. It is considered the most beautiful area of ​​the city. It is bounded by the Cours de l'Intendance, the Allées de Tourny and the Cours George Clémenceau.

The district has many squares: Place des Grands Hommes, Place Gambetta, Place de Tourny and Place de la Comédie. It concentrates beautiful architecture, historical monuments and works of art. The Grand Théâtre which houses the Opéra National de Bordeaux is the work of Victor Louis, a famous architect. It is a very lively sector, very lively thanks to the Great Men market. The Golden Triangle gives access to the assets of the other surrounding districts such as the lively evenings of Place de la Victoire, the calm of the Esplanade des Quinconces and other places to discover. The golden triangle is also very well served by public transport.

The Saint-Pierre district, the cradle of Bordeaux

 

The district is considered the cradle of Bordeaux, it is one of the oldest districts of the city. Its existence dates back to the 12th century.

Place Saint-Pierre corresponds to the location of the old entrance to the inner port, which will give its name to the district. Porte Cailhau is an emblematic place in the district, 35 meters high and built in the 15th century. The Place de la Bourse, a huge work of art, is reflected in its water mirror. The district offers its inhabitants a rich cultural life. 

Don't miss the Saint-Pierre church built during the 16th century. It also has several schools (nursery, primary, middle and high school), perfect for families. Dynamic district, ideal for going out and enjoying life in Bordeaux. Saint-Pierre is very much alive. It is near the quays of the Garonne. Rue Saint-Rémi is a place where a multitude of restaurants reside. Calm reigns in the neighborhood thanks to its many pedestrian streets and reduced car traffic.
