Rental prices per m2 in Nantes

Capital of the Loire-Atlantique region, Nantes is an increasingly attractive metropolis for the French. Its living environment, its infrastructures and its proximity to many cities in France are not for nothing.

Nantes is a very attractive and dynamic city. Every year, it attracts a large number of students, young professionals and families. This high demand creates a high level of competition for rental properties, which makes it more difficult to find a property. For these reasons, the real estate market in Nantes is gradually suffocating. Indeed, the very high demand also has an impact on the supply. It is difficult to find available properties to rent in certain popular areas of the city such as the Bouffay district, the Île de Nantes or the hypercentre. The real estate market in Nantes is relatively stable, which can make fewer properties available. As there are few properties, they are often much more expensive and therefore less accessible to future tenants who may have a limited budget.

It is therefore essential to be well prepared and to start your apartment search in advance to have the best chance of finding the right property.
