Rennes, the town
Rennes covers 50.4 km², sits at 46 m above sea level and had 230,890 inhabitants in the 2023 census. Its inhabitants are called the Rennaise.
Rennes (in Gallo, Rene, in Breton, Roazhon) is a commune in north-west France, the chief town of the département of Ille-et-Vilaine and of the région of Bretagne. The town is situated in Haute-Bretagne, the eastern part of Bretagne, at the confluence of the Ille and the Vilaine. Located on the European Atlantic arc, Rennes has 230,890 inhabitants within its boundaries, making it the largest town in the région of Bretagne, the second largest town in the Grand Ouest and in historic Bretagne after Nantes, and the eleventh most populous commune in France by number of inhabitants.
A little history
Around the 2nd century BC, the town is said to have been founded by the tribe of the Riedones, who chose the site of the confluence of the Ille and the Vilaine as their capital, and took the name Condate (meaning confluent in Gaulish). Other, more recent sources cast doubt on past interpretations and indicate a foundation in the 1st century, on the hill above the confluence (the current location of the cathédrale Saint-Pierre). A significant number of archaeological excavations carried out since 1980 have allowed a greater understanding of the town of Rennes during the Gallo-Roman period.

| Property type | Median price / sq.m | Central range, middle half of sales | Average surface | Sales, 12 months ending 31 December 2025 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | €4,500 | €3,750 – €5,300 | 24 m² | 574 |

Prices by property type in Rennes
By property type in Rennes, T3 at €3,532/m², T2 at €3,875/m², T4 at €3,111/m², studio at €4,500/m², T5+ at €3,125/m².
The studio carries the highest price per square metre and the T4 the lowest, a gap of 45 %. Small units usually cost more per square metre than large ones, because the price of a kitchen and a bathroom is spread over fewer metres.
The T3 is what changes hands most often here, with 776 sales over twelve months. It is therefore the type with the most reference points, and the one where a price is hardest to argue against.

Selling in Rennes
Pricing in Rennes starts by placing your property inside the €2,958 to €4,439 band rather than on the median alone. The median describes the middle of the market; condition, floor, outdoor space and energy rating decide where in the band you sit.
With 3,411 sales a year, Rennes absorbs correctly priced properties. An over-ambitious price shows quickly, because buyers have points of comparison.
Briveo values your Rennes property from the same DVF file, keeping only sales of comparable properties closest to your address, free of charge and with no obligation, then supports the sale through to the deed.
Buying in Rennes
Reading the €2,958 to €4,439 band is a buyer’s main tool in Rennes. A property at the bottom is not a bargain and one at the top is not a rip-off, the band measures how different the properties are, not how well they are priced.
Acquisition costs are budgeted on top of the price, around 8 % on an existing property, around 3 % on a new one. These are orders of magnitude; the notary computes the exact amount.
Prices moving up narrow the room for negotiation without closing it, a property that has been on the market a long time is negotiable whatever the trend says.
