Cholet Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Cholet

Cholet, in the Maine-et-Loire department of western France, combines an established urban fabric with strong links across the wider Pays de la Loire area. For apartment investors, it offers a clearly defined city setting where local housing trends can be tracked month by month.

In August 2026, the main signal is a pullback in pricing that has not yet been matched by lower rent levels. The average apartment sale price stands at €133,750, after falling 3.8% over the month and 10.8% over the year. By contrast, the average rent is €510, edging up 0.5% month on month and 2.1% year on year.

That gap matters because it keeps the yield at 5.74%, even as capital values soften. The average price per square metre is now €2,010, down 4.6% from the previous month and up just 0.6% over 12 months. For a monthly market note, Cholet reads as a place where apartment pricing has weakened more clearly than rental income, leaving returns comparatively resilient for now.
