About Charente-Maritime department

Charente-Maritime combines Atlantic coastline, island scenery, and a strong maritime identity with coastal towns and inland communities that each shape the market in their own way. For apartment investors, that mix keeps the department relevant beyond a single season, with location and pricing discipline doing much of the work.

August 2026 brings the clearest signal: apartment values are still easing even as rents edge higher, creating a more balanced but still selective income case. The average sale price sits at €225,000 after a monthly decline of 2.0%, while the average price per square metre is €4,250, down 0.1% from the previous month and 6.6% lower than a year ago. That softer pricing backdrop is set against an average rent of €680, which is up 4.6% month on month and 0.7% year on year.

The result is a yield profile of 4.23%, suggesting that rental income is helping offset weaker capital values, though not fully reversing them. For apartment buyers, the current setup is less about chasing rapid appreciation and more about weighing whether today’s lower entry prices can work alongside the modest rent gains now visible in the data.
