Chartres Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Chartres

Chartres is anchored by its Gothic cathedral, with historic streets and the Eure running through the city. Its setting in the Eure-et-Loir department gives apartment investors a distinct geographic focus, shaped by a landmark that is visible well beyond the cathedral precinct.

In October 2026, the clearest signal for Chartres apartments is that sale prices are retreating faster than rents. The average sale price fell 6.0% month over month, while the average rent fell 3.5%. That gap matters because both sides of an investment calculation are moving downward, but not at the same pace. A lower purchase-price benchmark can improve the entry side of the calculation; a lower rent benchmark pushes against the income side. Neither movement, on its own, establishes that a particular apartment will deliver a better return. These are market averages, not the purchase terms or achievable rent for an individual property.

The average apartment sale price now stands at €189,000, and the reported yield is 5.81%. Read together with the monthly declines, those measures frame both the opportunity and its limit: investors can compare a softer sale-price reference with an income measure that has also weakened, without treating the yield as proof of improvement. No earlier yield figure is provided to confirm a change in returns. For any apartment in Chartres, the useful next step is to assess its asking price and expected rent together, rather than extrapolate from citywide averages.
