    Understanding the Esse real estate market

    Marge de négociation à Esse

    À Esse, le marché ne dégage pas de marge de négociation automatique : le prix repose sur les fondamentaux du secteur (dont une prime de secteur, jamais négociable). (estimation indicative, 16 ventes)

    Mais la décote se joue surtout bien par bien : un logement classé F ou G (passoire énergétique) se négocie nettement moins cher — environ un quart du prix en moins pour une maison classée G, près de 12 % pour un appartement (valeur verte 2024, Notaires de France / ADNOV, 552 850 ventes) — 18,9 % des logements le sont ici ; un bien A-D performant part, lui, du prix du marché.

    Source: DVF — DGFiP open data. No names, no exact addresses.

    Range: half of sales between 525 €/m² and 1 063 €/m² (across 23 DVF sales, 3 years).

    This market is defined above all by very affordable price-per-m².

    This median price, based on DVF transactions over the last 5 years (DGFiP Etalab), places Esse within the nouvelle-aquitaine regional market. On the rental side, the ANIL median apartment rent there is 8,4 €/sqm/month, an indicative gross yield of 12,0 % before taxes, fees and vacancy.

    The town is in demographic stagnation over 5 years (-0,4 %), with construction activity low (little new construction, tight market on existing stock). Housing vacancy is low (tight rental market, secure rents). These three factors crossed with the recent price trend (-1,8 % over 5 years) determine the attractivity grade D shown above.

    Note: DVF covers registered transactions excluding non-finalised off-plan sales, and ANIL publishes medians (not averages — the rent distribution is pulled up by exceptional properties). For a fine analysis at the exact address, use the simulator above or the town's full profile.

    Sources: DVF (DGFiP Etalab) — rolling 5-year medians, ANIL — rent map, INSEE pop_evol — 5-year demographics, Sit@del — 24-month building permits, Filocom (DGFiP / SDES) — housing vacancy. The attractivity grade and 5-year capital gain are NTYP estimates (proprietary weighting of the data above, independent of any affiliation) — see our methodology.

    — Your questions

    Frequently asked questions

    Are the prices/sqm in Esse expensive?

    The median DVF price is 841 €/sqm. For a 60 sqm apartment, that is around 50 480 € excluding acquisition fees (count +7 to 8 % notary fees in the existing market).

    What rental yield can I expect in Esse?

    The indicative gross yield is 12,0 % (median rent 8,4 €/sqm/month × 12 ÷ median price 841 €/sqm). The net yield after charges, property tax, vacancy and taxes is generally 30 to 45 % lower. Use the simulator above to personalise it to your case.

    [[prix_immobilier.faq2bis_a]]
    What does the D 5-year attractivity grade mean concretely?

    The index crosses 4 factors over the last 5 years: DVF price trend, INSEE demographic trend, Sit@del building permits and Filocom vacancy. D corresponds to a market to study carefully. High vacancy or sluggish demographics. The full method is documented in the Methodology section.

    Can future prices be predicted from the last 5 years?

    Not reliably. The past price change (shown above, DVF source) describes the recent market — it does not foretell the future. Property markets tend to revert to their mean: a town that rose or fell sharply does not mechanically keep going the same way, and rates, the wider economy or a local shock weigh more than any extrapolation. That is why we show the observed change and the real drivers (demographics, vacancy, building permits) rather than a speculative future capital gain.

    Is it better to buy an apartment or a house in Esse?

    The median apartment price/sqm in Esse is typically 5 % above the house price/sqm (houses offer more usable surface but a lower €/sqm ratio thanks to the land share). For a rental investment, the apartment generally offers a better yield (more tenants, simpler management, lower urban vacancy). The house is rather preferable for a family primary residence or a heritage project with valuable land.

    Is it better to buy or rent in Esse?

    It depends how long you keep the home. In Esse, a 60 sqm flat costs about €50 480 to buy and €503 a month to rent, a rent-to-price ratio of 12,0 % gross per year. That ratio decides, not the price level.

    Buying adds costs renting never pays — transfer duties, notary fees, property tax, maintenance — which must be recouped first. The “Buy or rent” calculator on this page works out the year the balance tips.
