    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 Lamaids within the auvergne-rhone-alpes regional market. On the rental side, the ANIL median apartment rent there is 7,3 €/sqm/month, an indicative gross yield of 14,5 % before taxes, fees and vacancy.

    The town is in demographic stagnation over 5 years (-0,9 %), 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 (+14,2 % over 5 years) determine the attractivity grade B 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 Lamaids expensive?

    The median DVF price is 604 €/sqm. For a 60 sqm apartment, that is around 36 250 € excluding acquisition fees (count +7 to 8 % notary fees in the existing market).

    What rental yield can I expect in Lamaids?

    The indicative gross yield is 14,5 % (median rent 7,3 €/sqm/month × 12 ÷ median price 604 €/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.

    What does the B 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. B corresponds to an attractive market (solid fundamentals). A good yield/risk trade-off. 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 Lamaids?

    The median apartment price/sqm in Lamaids 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 Lamaids?

    It depends how long you keep the home. In Lamaids, a 60 sqm flat costs about €36 250 to buy and €438 a month to rent, a rent-to-price ratio of 14,5 % 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.
