Angoulême Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Angoulême

Angoulême rises above the Charente River, with a historic hilltop centre, old ramparts and a strong connection to comics and graphic storytelling. These features give the city a distinct identity within the Charente department and provide a backdrop for reading its apartment market.

October 2026 puts a split between sale and rental pricing at the centre of the apartment picture: the average sale price rose 3.7% month on month, while the average rent fell 1.5%. For an investor assessing a purchase, that contrast matters more than either movement alone. It suggests that purchase costs and potential rental income need separate checks, rather than an assumption that they move together. These are market averages, not a forecast for an individual flat.

At the same time, the average price per square metre fell 3.0% month on month, even as the average sale price increased. That apparent mismatch is a reminder that the headline sale figure and the area-based measure describe different aspects of the market; the data do not establish what caused the gap. The reported yield stands at 6.78%, offering a current reference point rather than a promise of what any apartment will deliver. Read together, these measures favour a careful comparison of purchase price, usable area and realistic rent assumptions. They do not, on their own, show whether a particular investment will outperform another.
