Apartment finder in Paris 16th

The largest of Paris’s arrondissements is also the family heart of the West: Passy and La Muette for noble floors, Auteuil for its artists’ houses and villas, Trocadéro for its views. Here buyers purchase floor area that intramuros Paris barely offers anywhere else, steps from the Bois de Boulogne, and the fine addresses often sell before they are listed.

01The market

Where does the property market in Paris 16th stand in 2026?

In 2025, 2,613 sales were recorded in Paris 16th: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses.

The median for apartments has moved -6% since 2021 and +1% over one year: a market correcting, address by address.

Sales range from €7,900/m² to €16,300/m²: address and condition make the price.

The 16th is a family market more than a speculative one: the average floor area sold tops 83 sqm, a Paris record, and three and four-bedroom flats look for their natural buyers. The median stands at €11,000/m², with a first decile at €7,900/m²: the gaps between a townhouse in Auteuil to refresh and a noble floor in La Muette are considerable.

The market is liquid but discreet: 2,613 sales in 2025, a significant share of them between neighbours of the same building or through networks. Flats with a terrace, top floors with a view and the artists’ houses of Auteuil trigger decisions in days, not weeks.

Technical vigilance focuses on the large co-ownerships around avenue Henri-Martin and place du Chili: service charges, voted façade works, heating systems. With thirty percent of the stock predating 1919, a serious technical survey comes before any offer.

Passy residential district

02The neighbourhoods

Where to buy in Paris 16th, neighbourhood by neighbourhood?

Four quarters, four markets: from Trocadéro representation to Auteuil's villas, the 16th reads through its landscapes.

  • 01 Passy and La Muette noble floors, cut-stone buildings, the heart of the market

    The residential core: the shopping streets of rue de Passy, well-kept Haussmannian buildings, through family flats. The addresses near the Passy market and rue Raynouard often trade privately.

  • 02 Trocadéro and Chaillot views, embassies, representation

    The gateway of the arrondissement facing the Eiffel Tower: standing buildings, floors with terraces, permanent international demand. Open views over the Champ-de-Mars command clear premiums, to be checked building by building.

  • 03 Auteuil and Porte Molitor artists’ houses, villas, village atmosphere

    The former commune of Auteuil keeps its townhouses, its planted villas and its artists’ studios: a housing stock found nowhere else in intramuros Paris, handed down between insiders.

  • 04 Porte-Dauphine and the river the family-friendly 16th, from the bois to avenue Foch

    Around place du Chancelier Adenauer and avenue Foch, the large family surfaces of the early twentieth century, steps from the bois. A stability market, where owners stay twenty years.

Which property for your project?

  1. 01 The noble floor of Passy

    Between rue de Passy and rue Raynouard, well-kept cut-stone buildings, caretakers, lifts to the reception floors. The heart of the family market of the 16th, where homes often sell before listing, between neighbours of the same world.

  2. 02 The artist’s house of Auteuil

    In the planted lanes of Auteuil, former artists’ houses and studios pass between insiders: gardens, glazed studios, a village atmosphere. A market apart, confidential, where the state of the fabric commands most of the budget.

  3. 03 The large family home by the bois

    Porte Dauphine and avenue Foch: the large early twentieth-century floor plans, four bedrooms and staff quarters, steps from the bois de Boulogne. For a family staying twenty years, with a careful review of charges and voted façade works.

Three buying profiles to place your own in Paris 16th. Orientation pointers, which your property finder refines with you at the brief.

Hesitating between two neighbourhoods in Paris 16th, or between an apartment and a house? Home Select compares them for you, sale by sale and on video pre-viewings, before having you travel.

03Living and buying

Why live and buy in Paris 16th?

The 16th lives like a town within the town: families stay a generation, the Passy market replaces the supermarket, and the Bois de Boulogne serves as a garden. Children grow up on foot, from collège to tennis.

On the cultural side the offer is more discreet than elsewhere: the museums of avenue du Président Wilson and the Trocadéro introduce children to modern art, the Trocadéro halls face the tower, and Roland-Garros sets the city to tennis time every spring.

Three projects, three markets

Investing in Paris 16th for the long term

The 16th plays the long game: over 83 square metres of average surface, three-bedroom flats finding their families, and international rental demand, lycées and embassies around. You buy heritage more than yield, with near-zero vacancy. The large co-ownerships around avenue Henri-Martin impose reading the charges before the offer.

Long-term investment: the Home Select method

A second home in Paris 16th

The 16th is a second-residence address for an international or provincial buyer: a large flat near the bois, closed part of the year, reopened for school holidays and Roland-Garros in spring. The artists’ houses of Auteuil, extremely rare, sell between insiders. Lift, parking and conciergerie belong to the file.

Second home: the Home Select method

Settling in Paris 16th year-round

Living in the 16th is a town within the town: the Passy market, the museums of avenue du Président Wilson, the Bois de Boulogne as a garden. Children grow up on foot, from collège to tennis, and families stay a generation. Four métro lines and the RER C ring the arrondissement: the car stays useful for the bois.

04From abroad

How to buy in Paris 16th from abroad?

Reaching Paris 16e

The residential west relaxes: line 1 serves Porte Maillot and Argentine, line 2 Porte Dauphine, line 6 crosses Trocadéro and Passy on its viaduct, line 9 follows rue de la Pompe and La Muette, and RER C tracks the Seine through Boulainvilliers and avenue du Président Kennedy towards Les Invalides and Orly. The Charles de Gaulle Étoile, at the northern tip, puts RER A three minutes from La Défense. Roissy and Orly stay about half an hour from the centre. For an international buyer, once the plane lands, arrival in the 16th is counted in peaceful minutes rather than connections.

The international community in Paris 16th

The arrondissement of embassies and of the OECD, housed at the château de la Muette, has always welcomed diplomatic families, international executives and students of Paris-Dauphine University. Bilingual schools are many, consulates close, and the sports clubs of the bois de Boulogne open to children of every passport. Foreign buyers find here floor areas found nowhere else, over 83 square metres on average, and a discretion that Home Select arranges: confidential viewings, prepared files, co-ownerships put through the sieve.

When to visit, when to buy?

Two thousand six hundred and thirteen sales a year and a 53-day selling time: the 16th is viewed unhurriedly. The Roland-Garros tournament in May and June fills short lets around the stadium without touching sales. The diplomatic restart at the end of summer lines up the needs of families changing posts. Fine properties pass mostly in spring and September, often off-market; the quieter winter allows negotiation on homes listed for several months.

Property finder in Paris 16th

Everything above, Home Select reads for you. Everything below, its property finders do for you.

A property finder in Paris 16th works for the buyer, and the buyer alone: searching, viewing, checking and negotiating on your behalf. The six steps of the search, access to properties that never appear in listings, and Home Select’s two offers are detailed below.

05The service

What your property finder’s service in Paris 16th includes

A buyer-side search mandate, a written method, fees due on success. Here is what you entrust to Home Select in Paris 16th.

  1. 01

    What your finder does

    They search on your behalf and for you alone, from the written brief to the checking of every document up to the final deed: the six steps are detailed below. Home Select works for the buyer, never for the seller.

  2. 02

    For which project?

    A main home, a second home, a pied-à-terre or a long-term wealth purchase in Paris 16th, whether you are on site or abroad: the search is run remotely, video viewings included, up to the decisive viewing.

  3. 03

    On which terms?

    Home Select runs two offers, with the same full service: the Exclusive offer, an exclusive mandate, 2.5% of the net purchase price, minimum €10,000 incl. VAT, at every budget; the Confidential offer, a simple mandate reserved for projects of €2m and above, 1.5% of the net purchase price, dedicated to off-market properties. In both cases, nothing is due until you have bought.

  4. 04

    How long does it take?

    Home Select completes a search in 45 days on average, with 3 viewings on average instead of more than 40, and gives a first answer within one working day.

The six steps of your hunt

  1. 01

    The brief

    Everything starts with a thorough conversation: the use of the property, the real budget, the non-negotiable criteria, the calendar. This written framing becomes the roadmap of the hunt, and avoids the months lost viewing beside the point.

    A written brief, and a search launched within the week.

  2. 02

    Sourcing, off-market included

    Home Select covers the whole market: published listings, and above all what is never displayed anywhere. Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and approaches owners directly when the setting calls for it.

    Home Select receives more than 100 off-market properties from its network every day.

  3. 03

    Pre-visits

    Every lead is verified, visited or analysed for you: commented video, technical sheet, first figures. You only travel for properties that truly match the brief.

    Home Select arranges only 3 viewings on average, instead of 40.

  4. 04

    Negotiation

    The offer is drafted and defended by Home Select, complete file in hand. The negotiation covers the price, but also the conditions, the timelines and the works revealed.

    Home Select negotiates 6% off the asking price on average.

  5. 05

    Securing

    Preliminary contract read line by line, surveys, co-ownership rules, charges, easements: every document is checked before you commit. Local points of vigilance, from the coast to the mountains, are in Home Select’s checklists.

    Every document checked before you commit.

  6. 06

    The keys

    Home Select stays by your side through to the signing before the notaire, and after: contractors, formalities, moving. Its work ends when you are settled in, not when the deed is signed.

    Home Select takes a search from the brief to the authentic deed in 45 days on average.

Buying in Paris 16th: three finder’s reflexes

  1. 01 Check the real distance to the métro

    The arrondissement is vast: between upper Passy and the Seine, ten minutes' walk separate two different markets. Value follows the stations, lines 9 and 6 first.

  2. 02 Look at charges before price

    The 16th's large co-ownerships show very variable service charges, lift and collective heating included: two flats at the same price can cost 200 EUR a month apart.

  3. 03 Do not underestimate the artists' houses

    Auteuil's villas and studios sell rarely and dearly: a structural survey is required, timbers and light obliging, before any negotiation.

09Your project

Property finder in Paris 16th: your questions

The questions common to every city (purchase costs, remote search, choosing your finder) are gathered on one page: all the frequently asked questions.

Why use a property finder in Paris 16th?

Because the local market has its own rules. Floor area found nowhere else: over 83 sqm on average, three and four-bedroom flats in numbers. A property finder works for you alone, on the buyer’s side: daily monitoring, access to off-market sales, strict shortlisting and negotiation. Since 2011, Home Select has run more than 1,200 searches with this method, rated 4.8/5 on Google.

What are property prices in Paris 16th in 2026?

Based on actual recorded sales (DVF / DGFiP via data.gouv.fr, April 2026 release, 2025 sales), the median price in Paris 16th stands at €11,000/m² for an apartment. These medians are market benchmarks, not an appraisal: the address, the floor, the condition and scarcity make the final price.

What budget for a flat in the 16th arrondissement?

The median stands at €11,000/m² on 2025 sales: a 70 sqm two-bedroom trades around €770,000, and half of the sales fall between €7,900 and €16,300/m² depending on the address and the floor.

How long does it take to buy in the 16th?

The average time to sale is 53 days, but rare homes, terraces and artists’ houses, often go within days: monitoring and pre-visiting make the difference.

Is the property market in Paris 16th active?

In 2025, 2,613 sales were recorded in Paris 16th: enough to choose from, never enough for the finest addresses. The median for apartments has moved -6% since 2021 and +1% over one year: a market correcting, address by address.

How long does it take to buy in Paris 16th with a property finder?

Home Select completes its searches in 45 days on average, with 3 viewings on the client side instead of 40 and about fifteen hours of your time. In Paris 16e, the exact calendar depends on how rare the target property is: it is framed at the brief, then held.

How do you reach off-market properties in Paris 16th?

Through the network and direct approach: Home Select receives more than 100 properties every day from its 15,000 professional partners before they go on sale, and also contacts owners when the setting calls for it. In Paris 16e, the monitoring starts with two sectors: Passy and La Muette, then Trocadéro and Chaillot. That is often where the unfindable property is.

Is the 16th a good buy-to-let?

Rental demand is stable and solvent, but the gross yield stays modest, between 2.5 and 3.5%: you buy heritage more than yield, with near-zero vacancy.

What is the difference between Passy and Auteuil?

Passy, around its namesake street, is the active, shopping centre; Auteuil, further south, plays the village with its houses and villas. The medians meet; the atmosphere does not.

Do I need a car in the 16th?

Not necessarily: two metro lines cross the arrondissement and buses do the rest. But families often keep a car for the bois, the sports clubs and the neighbouring departments, and the basement space stays sought after.

What works should I plan in the period stock?

With thirty percent of the stock predating 1919, the big items are electrics, plumbing and windows, plus a façade works levy sooner or later. We cost everything before the offer.

What are your fees in Paris 16th?

Home Select, a property finder in Paris 16th, charges 2.5% of the net purchase price (minimum €10,000 incl. VAT) on the Exclusive offer, or 1.5% on the Confidential offer for projects of €2m and above. Home Select is paid on success only: nothing is due until you have bought.
