Looking for a Luxury Apartment and Flat in Paris?
Originally posted on & updated on 2nd April, 2025
Ah, Paris… the city of Light, what can we say about the French capital that hasn’t already been said a thousand times before? We all know how excellent paris is. It’s consistently on lists of the most romantic cities in the world, the most visited capital city, the most cultured, and the best place for shopping.
And did we mention it has some of the most recognisable and popular tourist attractions in the world? Think of the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre, or Notre Dame, for example. Do you remember Emily from the Paris TV series?
Luxury Living in the Capital
But the city of Paris is also home to more than two million people, with the broader population of its suburbs estimated to be around ten-and-a-half million. It’s a great and diverse place to live, with great transport links and something for everyone, from the wealth history to the cool bars, the café culture and amazing restaurants, the laid-back attitude, and the chic style.
Real Estate Opportunities
There’s an excellent choice for investors looking for homes for themselves or the real estate rental market. Properties range from classic to contemporary, stylishly understated to opulent; beautiful 18th and 18th-century buildings line the streets and boulevards, and you’ll find more affordable studio apartments in the city, too.
Market Dynamics
Obviously, as you are looking to invest in one of the most visited capital cities on the planet, prices are higher than elsewhere in France, but, like London, New York, Singapore or Tokyo, you can’t go wrong: the property’s value keeps going up. But you do need to know what you’re doing as property sells like ‘hot croissants’ here, and competition only looks set to increase as an influx of international buyers moves to the city in anticipation of the Olympic Games in 2024.
Navigating the Buying Process
So it’s essential to act quickly when you see something you like. If you don’t speak French very well and are unfamiliar with property laws in France, the buying process in Paris will be more difficult. A good start is knowing that property is valued in price per square metre, with prices varying depending on which arrondissement you’re buying in.
