Var department Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Var department

Var department combines Mediterranean coastline, inland hills, and established towns that appeal to a wide range of apartment buyers. Its mix of seaside access, transport links, and year-round local life gives the area a durable place appeal beyond the summer season.

July 2026 highlights a clear tension in the apartment market: rents are moving ahead faster than sale values, but investment economics remain moderate rather than stretched. The average apartment rent is €720, up 3.6% on the month and 4.8% over the year, while the average sale price is €256,000, edging up 0.4% month on month but still down 1.5% year on year. That gap suggests rental growth is doing more of the work than capital appreciation right now.

Price-per-square-metre data points to the same restrained momentum. At €4,310 per m², the average is up 0.8% from last month and 1.2% from a year ago, a measured rise rather than a sharp rebound. With a yield of 3.9%, Var is offering income that is being supported by stronger rent growth, yet the current pricing pattern indicates that investors are still operating in a market where income and valuation need to be weighed carefully against one another.
