Buying in the 20th arrondissement with a property hunter
The 20th is popular, multicultural and creative Paris. From Belleville to Ménilmontant, from Père-Lachaise to Gambetta, it attracts those wanting an authentic, lively and affordable Paris. It's the arrondissement of artists, young families and first-time buyers.
The buyer profile in the 20th is Paris's most diverse: first-time buyers, artists, teachers, young families, all seeking a neighbourhood with a strong identity and accessible prices. The 20th also attracts rental investors thanks to above-average Parisian yields.
The 20th's asset is neighbourhood life: Belleville and its Chinese restaurants, Jourdain and its cafés, Ménilmontant and its street art, Gambetta and its village life. Each micro-neighbourhood has a distinct personality.
The property stock is dominated by old working-class buildings: faubourien brick or stone, often without lift, with inner courtyards and workshops. A property hunter who knows the 20th identifies well-maintained buildings and streets gaining value.
The 20th is the Paris that resists: Belleville, Ménilmontant, Jourdain: a popular and creative art de vivre that many consider Paris's last true neighbourhood.

Commercial space found
Efficient, professional, trustworthy, responsive and available. Neither complacent nor pushy, he really listens to his clients' needs and wishes, which is very different from some competitors who, above all, seek to make life easier for themselves by widening their clients' parameters (price, area, price per m2). A real partner.
