Alès Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Alès

Alès, in the Gard department of southern France, sits between the Cévennes foothills and the lower Rhône valley, giving the city a distinctive mix of urban convenience and regional character. Its apartment market reflects that setting, with values that remain closely watched by investors focused on income and price stability.

September 2026 brings the clearest signal: rents are rising faster than sale values, tightening the income equation for apartment buyers. The average apartment rent is now €590, up 7.6% month on month and 8.1% year on year, while the average sale price holds at €130,000, unchanged from the previous month and up 3.2% over twelve months. That gap suggests the market is still adjusting through the rental side rather than through a sharper re-rating of transaction prices.

Pricing per square metre adds a further layer to that tension. At €1,780, the average stands 3.0% higher than last month, yet 1.6% below a year earlier. For investors, that combination points to a market where monthly rental growth is currently doing more of the heavy lifting than capital values. The result is a yield of 6.74%, which remains attractive on paper, but it is being tested by the faster rise in rents and the steadier pace of sale prices.
