This initial observation is reassuring: such a slight decline in volume is the lesser evil after weeks of a near total standstill in economic activity – real estate activity in particular – between March and May 2020. Nevertheless, the dynamic is more complex than it seems, given the large gap between the French provinces, where volumes remained strong, and Greater Paris where they dropped by more than 15%. more
Price trends coincided with the same area of disruption and the rise eased off in Q3 of 2020 in Greater Paris (+0.5% compared to Q2). Paris saw the same slowdown with +6.9% annual growth in Q3 (after +8% in Q1). Negotiations for properties are tougher and last longer in Paris, while the market in the outer suburbs and provinces is smoother and more accessible. As a result, Greater Paris buyers have seen a marked increase compared to Q3 of 2019 in Yonne (27% + 9 points), Eure (22% +6 points) and Orne (21% + 6 points) in departments bordering Greater Paris.

Foreigners are notably absent on the national map. The share of non-resident foreign investors (a key factor for places of investment and a driving force for property prices to rise) is now close to its lowest level in 10 years (1.5% in 2019). In the same vein as French residents, non-resident foreign buyers in the provinces are shifting their investment from urban centres to rural areas. And Paris has been no exception: if we look at the most sought after arrondissements by non-resident foreign buyers (the 6th, 7th, 8th and 16th), their market share is clearly declining, particularly in the 6th arrondissement which accounted for 17% of buyers in 2015, yet only 9.4% in Q3 of 2020.
Despite the challenging operating conditions (as seen across the board), and despite the support of French-State guaranteed loans, banks have continued to play their “solvency role”, as confirmed by the steady growth in new home lending at a rate of +5.5% in October 2020, amid a slight decline in renegotiations of property loans. more

The French taxe foncière is an annual property ownership tax which is payable in October every year. It is payable by the individual who owns the property on the 1st January of the same year and is applicable whether you live in your property or rent it out. The taxe foncière is used to fund local services within the commune and department and usually includes the taxe d'enlèvement des ordures ménagères (TEOM) for waste collection services. [links]
