The gap between the least expensive arrondissement (19th, ~€7,560/m²) and the most expensive (6th, ~€13,400/m²) reaches 77%. Paris is not a single market — it is a mosaic of micro-markets where the street, floor, orientation and building matter as much as the arrondissement.
This heterogeneity is an opportunity for informed buyers: a well-negotiated apartment in a "premium" district can prove more accessible than a mediocre property in an area under pressure. Our role is precisely to decode these gaps for you.
Median prices per arrondissement mask considerable internal disparities. In the 1st, an apartment on the Palais-Royal side systematically exceeds a property near Les Halles by 15 to 25%. In the 16th, the gap between Trocadéro and Auteuil can reach 30%.
METROREALTY is based at 18 rue Molière, in the heart of the 1st arrondissement. This location in the most sought-after district of Paris gives us a sharp, day-to-day reading of the market — not just statistics, but genuine on-the-ground expertise.
The median price in Paris intra-muros is €9,600/m² (Paris Notaires, Q3 2025). This figure conceals significant variation: from €7,560/m² in the 19th arrondissement to €13,400/m² in the 6th. Within a single arrondissement, floor level, orientation, and condition can move the price by 30 to 50%.
There is no universal answer: it depends on your investment horizon, budget, and objectives (primary residence, pied-à-terre, rental yield). For long-term heritage investment, the central arrondissements (1st, 4th, 6th, 7th) offer structural resilience. For a better yield-to-price ratio, the 9th, 10th, and 11th show positive momentum. Our experts can guide you based on your personal situation.
After a correction of 5–10% between 2022 and 2024, driven by rising interest rates, the Paris market is showing signs of stabilisation in 2025. Several arrondissements are posting positive trends (9th +6.5%, 4th +5.0%, 14th +5.8%). The most expensive central districts are holding their level despite lower transaction volumes. In the long term, Paris retains its position as Europe's reference market thanks to the scarcity of its heritage property stock.
The gap reaches 77% between the 19th (€7,560/m²) and the 6th (€13,400/m²). This is explained by a combination of factors: location and accessibility, historical prestige of the district, building quality (Haussmann vs. contemporary), local amenities, and scarcity of supply. The central arrondissements (1st–8th) stand out for their historic property stock with strong heritage value and sustained international demand.
The average time observed by METROREALTY — measured from signing the mandate to signing the sale agreement — is 82 days. This is shorter for rare, correctly priced properties and longer for overpriced ones requiring adjustments. Location, property condition, and presentation quality also significantly influence the time to sale.
