Methodology

The figures in this observatory are computed from Est Ensemble's official reference-rent schedule, set by prefectural decree (Arrêté préfectoral IDF-2025-05-16-00008 du 16 mai 2025). Averages are on the reference rent excluding charges, expressed in euros per square metre of living area, for unfurnished dwellings — the most representative market indicator.

The reference rent depends on the geographic sector, the number of rooms, the construction period and whether the dwelling is furnished. The increased reference rent (base ceiling, usually +20%) and the reduced reference rent frame the rent of a listed dwelling. These amounts are mandatory mentions in the lease.

These averages are indicative, to compare sectors and track the market. The exact ceiling for a specific dwelling is computed from its address: use our rent-control simulator. Check my dwelling's ceiling in Est Ensemble.
