the rise in rents explodes in the largest cities of France

2023-07-10 13:55:03
Up to 7% increase in rent in one year: in some cities in France, renting a studio is more and more expensive, despite the rent shield put in place by the government.

It is a study that raises questions. According to PriceHubble data, reported by BFM Business, renting a studio is increasingly expensive in the big cities of France, while rental demand is still much stronger than supply. Nice, Paris, Brest and Bordeaux are thus on the podium of the cities in which studio rents have increased the most in one year: +6.6% in the capital of the Alpes-Maritimes, +6.5% in the City of Light, and +6.2% for Brest and Bordeaux.

Other villents also happily exceed the 3.5% yet set by the rent shield put in place by the government. The increase is thus 4,8% Strasbourg, +4.6% Marseille, +4.2% Nantes, and +4% Lille and Montpellier. An increase in rents more measured but still marked Lyon (+3.3%).

A rise normally caps 3.5%

As a reminder, at the end of July 2022, the deputies adopted a law for the implementation of the rent shield, a measure extended until March 31, 2024. The decision was also published in the Official newspaper Saturday July 8, 2023. Rent increases must therefore be capped at 3.5% until the end of March, in order to limit the impact of high inflation on rent increases and to make household expenditure on housing predictable.

How then can these sometimes spectacular and particularly detrimental increases for tenants be explained? According to PriceHubble, this may be due to the fact that the dwellings posted manifestly undervalued rents and therefore had the possibility of raising them, or that improvement works were carried out (energy renovation works for example), justifying the rise.

The greatest probability, however, remains that some owners just don’t play by the rulesout of ignorance or out of a desire for gain.
