The furnished rental real estate market in Paris

 

 

Paris, the most expensive city in France

 

Paris, the capital of France, has a dynamism and attractiveness that has nothing to envy to the world’s largest megacities. It is the largest college town in Europe. It was recently ranked 2nd among the most pleasant cities to study in,  behind Montreal. The charm of the city, the cultural richness with its 2 operas and 18 national museums, the nightlife, diversity of students and employment prospects make it an extremely attractive city for students. It has all the services and infrastructures needed to live a pleasant student life. It is easy to find sports halls, libraries, associations... Student life in Paris is particularly lively. There are many advantages and discounts accessible with the student status, whether the museum, cinema, transportation… The city of Paris is made in such a way that it’s easy to travel from one end to another thanks to an extensive transport network. 

Paris is a very popular student city for young people looking for success.

Paris has twenty districts that are separated by the Seine, divided into two banks. The right bank and the left bank. It has a surface area of 105 kilometers and a population of 2.2 million within the city limits and nearly 12 million including the surrounding areas.

 

 

 

The housing shortage in Paris 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, Paris 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 Paris about 4 times more demand than offer.

 

What type of accommodation to choose to stay in Paris ? 

 

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.

  • 50% of furnished accommodation offered to Paris are studios or T1

  • 53% of furnished apartments for rent are one-bedroom parisians apartments 

  • 10% of the furnished rental offer in the French capital city concerns apartments T3 or more

 

What surface for a furnished apartment in Paris? 

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! 

  • 39% of accommodations is less than 40m²

  • The size of 50% of accommodations is between 40 and 99m²

  • It is necessary to count a surface of more than 100m² for 10% of rental apartments in Paris

 

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

The average rent per m² is 32€/sq.m. A tenant will have to provide on average 1050€/month to stay in a furnished apartment in Paris. 

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

  • 900€/month for a studio or a one-bedroom apartment,

  • 1250€/month for a two-bedroom apartment,

  • 2000€/month for a T3 apartment, including the entire accommodation offered for shared accommodation.

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

 

Where to find a furnished apartment in Paris?

To find your apartment in Paris, 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!

 

Paris Intramuros, always a success

 

Most of the tenants looking for a place to live in Paris are looking in the capital itself. Tenants look in the arrondissements located in the center of Paris near well-known sites. These districts account for slightly less than 50% of all searches for housing in Paris Intramuros. Conversely, the arrondissements that interest tenants the least are located in the north of Paris, as well as the arrondissements in the hypercenter of the capital where rents are higher. 

 

 

 

The outer suburbs are gaining in popularity

 

Many tenants are choosing to live outside of Paris because the prices are more attractive and sometimes the housing is closer to their place of work or study.

With housing being excessively expensive within Paris, the alternative of the suburbs that make up the greater Paris area can be a solution. Perfect for a family wanting a larger space. The surrounding cities are just as welcoming and allow you to enjoy the advantages of the capital without the disadvantages. The cost of living in Paris is very high. Real estate prices are 88% more expensive than in the rest of France on average. 

Departments such as Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-St-Denis are thus popular. Conversely, the departments least sought after by students in Ile-de-France are Val d'Oise and Seine-et-Marne with less than 5% of requests.

 

 

 

Everything you need to know about renting a furnished apartment

 

Definition of a furnished apartment

 

A furnished accommodation is a decent accommodation equipped with furniture in sufficient quantity and quality to allow the tenant to sleep, eat and live there properly with regard to the requirements of everyday life.

The decree of August 15, 2015 specifies the furniture and equipment that must be included in a furnished apartment:

  • In the bedrooms or sleeping areas: bedding with a duvet or blanket, shutters or curtains on the windows.

  • In the kitchen or dining area: hotplates, an oven or microwave, a refrigerator, a freezer or freezer compartment in the refrigerator, enough crockery for meals, kitchen utensils.

  • A table and chairs, storage shelves, light fixtures and maintenance equipment (vacuum cleaner, broom, mop, etc.).

 

The furnished rental lease: the conditions

 

For furnished rentals, the rules are governed by the law of July 6, 1989:

  • The minimum duration of the lease is set at 1 year, or 9 months if the tenant is a student

  • The notice period for the owner is set at 3 months

  • The notice period for the tenant is set at 1 month

  • The security deposit requested corresponds to a maximum of 2 months' rent, and corresponds to 1 month's rent in the majority of cases.
