Paris is suffering from a shortage of rental properties. The supply of apartments for rent has decreased by 74% in 3 years.
One in five homes remains unoccupied in Paris. With the arrival of the 2024 Olympics, many owners want to take advantage. Some are notably used for furnished tourist rentals. On Airbnb alone, there are at least 60,000 officially available, according to Paris town hall. The government announced a new method of calculating the Energy Performance Diagnosis (EPD) for small areas.
