French real estate market trends

Overview

The French real estate market in 2026 is characterized by significant regional variations. In the Var department, demand remains active for houses and apartments in areas such as Toulon and Ollioules. While prices in Ollioules have seen slight year-over-year declines, they have risen approximately 8% over a five-year period.

Broadening to the Mediterranean regions, demand stays strong in Marseille, Corsica, and the Côte d'Azur. The Riviera, particularly the stretch between Cannes and Saint-Tropez, is experiencing record-breaking prices fueled by ultra-luxury demand, with many transactions in Nice occurring without bank credit.

On a national level, the market has transitioned to a landscape with more sellers than buyers, resulting in longer sales periods averaging 90 to 120 days. This shift has created more opportunities for price negotiations, with reductions typically ranging from 4% to 7%. Buyers are increasingly focusing on the maintenance costs and financial health of co-ownership properties.
