Naples Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Naples

Naples is one of Italy’s most distinctive urban markets, shaped by a historic core, a dense coastal setting, and a long-standing role as a cultural and commercial hub in southern Italy. For apartment investors, the city offers a location story that is as established as it is closely watched.

August 2026 points to a market where values are still moving higher, but rental growth is not keeping pace. The average apartment sale price reached €259,000, while the average price per square metre climbed to €2,730, both up 1.6% over the month and 7.9% compared with a year earlier. That steady appreciation signals continued upward pressure on entry costs.

The tension for investors is clearer when set against income trends. The average rent sits at €990, up 3.7% month on month, yet still 1.5% lower year on year. That combination leaves the gross yield at 7.29%, a solid figure, but one that sits within a market where sale prices have been rising faster than annual rents. In practical terms, August 2026 suggests a city still offering income potential, while price growth is asking more of new capital than it was a year ago.
