Santa Margherita Ligure Property Prices, Rents & Rental Yields

About Santa Margherita Ligure

Santa Margherita Ligure combines a refined Ligurian seaside setting with a compact urban core, elegant waterfront streets, and immediate access to the Bay of Tigullio. Its appeal sits in the balance between classic coastal charm and a practical apartment market shaped by a limited, highly centralised area.

August 2026 brings the clearest signal yet: apartment pricing is moving higher even as rental returns soften. The average sale price now stands at €480,000, while the average m2 price has reached €5,220, up 4.3% month over month and 5.6% year over year. That upward pricing trend is also visible in the broader sale figure, which is up 6.7% from the previous month and 2.2% above last year.

Against that backdrop, the income side looks less supportive. Average rent is €1,800, but it is down 8.9% month over month and 14.3% year over year. As a result, the estimated yield is 5.54%, a level that suggests investor economics are being squeezed by faster capital growth than rental growth. For apartment investors, August points to a market where ownership values are strengthening, but cash-flow conditions are not keeping pace.
