Hautes-Pyrénées department Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Hautes-Pyrénées department

Hautes-Pyrénées combines mountain scenery, spa heritage, and year-round access to the Pyrenees, with Tarbes anchoring the department and Lourdes adding international visibility. That mix gives the area a distinct profile for apartment investors looking at a market shaped by both local living and visitor-linked activity.

July 2026 points to a clear tension in the apartment market: rents are edging higher while sale values remain under pressure. The average apartment rent is €510, up 2.0% month on month and 13.3% year on year, yet the average sale price holds at €105,100, unchanged over the month but down 23.8% from a year earlier. That gap matters for investors because the headline yield is 6.05%, which looks appealing in gross terms even as purchase values have fallen.

The same pattern appears in price per square metre. At €2,280, the average is up 2.1% from the previous month, but still 19.7% below last year’s level. In other words, July shows a market where rental growth is providing some support, while capital values have not recovered to prior levels. For apartment buyers, that creates a setup that is more about income resilience than price momentum, with the yield helping to offset the weaker annual sale-price trend.
