Périgueux Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Périgueux

Périgueux, the historic heart of the Dordogne department, blends a compact city centre, river-side walks, and a strong architectural identity shaped by centuries of regional life. For apartment investors, it offers a location with clear local character and a steady urban rhythm.

August 2026 brings the clearest signal: sale prices are still moving up, while rental growth remains much softer. The average apartment sale price has reached €133,500, after a monthly rise of 4.8% and a year-on-year increase of 2.7%. That puts the market on a firmer pricing path, even as the rental side advances only marginally.

The tension is visible in the income picture. Average rent is €520, up just 0.5% over the month and down 0.9% over the year, while the average price per m2 stands at €2,020, only 2.3% higher month on month and 0.4% lower year on year. Against that backdrop, the current 6.91% yield remains the key reminder that returns depend on how carefully purchase pricing is weighed against modest rent movement. In other words, Périgueux is not about fast rental acceleration; it is about whether an investor can still secure an entry point that leaves room for income to do the work.
