Buying in the 16th arrondissement with a property hunter
The 16th is the residential arrondissement par excellence. From Place du Trocadéro to the villages of Auteuil and Passy, it offers a bourgeois, leafy and calm living environment that has attracted established Parisian families for generations.
The buyer profile in the 16th is family and wealth-oriented: affluent families with school-age children (reputed schools), retirees downsizing from suburban houses, wealth investors. The 16th is also highly prized by foreign families for its international schools.
The 16th's particularity is its size and diversity: the "north 16th" (Trocadéro, Chaillot) is the most prestigious and expensive, while the "south 16th" (Auteuil, Porte de Saint-Cloud) offers excellent value. The price gap between the two can reach 25-30%.
The 16th's market operates massively off-market. Owners sell among themselves, through their notary or family network. A property hunter with a strong network in the 16th is often the only way to access the best properties.
The 16th is an archipelago of villages: Passy, Auteuil, la Muette: each with its market, schools and neighbourhood life, connected by the paths of the Bois de Boulogne.
