Between two glasses of rosé on the terrace and a visit to the Halles Laissac, Montpellier is embracing a radiant spring in the real estate scene. While some major cities in France struggle to regain momentum, the Mediterranean city is enjoying a remarkable health with a 1.6% increase in apartment prices since January. Even better, it’s climbing to the top step of the podium alongside Bordeaux with a 2.2% rise over the year, according to an analysis by SeLoger. This dynamic is anything but a flash in the pan: here, the foundations are solid.
A thriving real estate market with properties that sell fast
Square meter prices remain reasonable (€3,476/m² for an apartment, €4,466/m² for a house), providing a great playground for first-time buyers, families seeking space, and investors looking for good deals. Above all...
t, the city continues to attract huge crowds. Students, young professionals, families, or retirees in search of sunshine: everyone wants their share of the Mediterranean. And you can feel it! Properties are selling faster (an average of 69 days compared to 82 last year), a clear sign that supply is finally adjusting to demand..
The true strength of Montpellier? Its diversity. From trendy neighborhoods like Boutonnet and Figuerolles to more affordable areas like La Paillade and Gambetta, everyone can find their little slice of paradise. And for those dreaming of luxury, Port Marianne and Aiguelongue remain popular, just like the hidden gems in the outskirts or by the coast.
Montpellier, the shining example to follow in 2025
Add to that a solid brand image, a dream climate, a smooth transportation network, and a rich cultural and student life, and you get a city that is both desirable and profitable. It seems Montpellier has found the magic formula between accessibility, appreciation potential, and quality of life. In 2025, it’s not just shining, it’s dazzling — but without breaking the bank!$
