Clair Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 One of our neighbours has just sold a field to another agriculteur: 7ha 88a 46ca = 78846m² for €36270The purchase price works out at €0.46/m². Have I got this right? Am I the only one thinking this is dirt cheap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert the InfoGipsy Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Sounds cheap, but agricultural land is always cheaper than constructible. In the last year or two I've seen lotissements in obscure Breton villages advertised at €1.00 (one Euro!) per m2 so I'm not totally surprised.

Clair Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 That sets an interesting precedent, as I am thinking about making an offer on a very small field directly opposite our house.It has previously been used as a jardin potager, but the old dear can no longer maintain it and her daughters have to blitz it with Round-Up several times a year to keep the weeds down. I am fed up looking at a desert every time I step out of the door... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ams Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Around here it is €46,000.00 per ha for land with vines. Average price for lot land is €65 per m2, doubles as one gets closer to a major town, and goes to euromillions closer to the beach. Still the price for building land has fallen over the past 6 months. ams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike151 Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 when you say" lot land", do you mean building plots? so 65000 euros per hectare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ams Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 Lotissement, which means a small estate which provides, edf, telephone, sewerage etc to the site. €65 per m2, thus for a 1000m2 site you pay €65,000 plus taxes and legal fees. Near the sea the price rises to €900 to €1,500 per m2.Near Royan a site of 705m2 with sea views went for €983,00, before costs.ams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Around here woodland up in the hills can sell for "as little as" €2,000 per hectare. All-ready-to-go building plots, not in the middle of nowhere, are in the 40-100 euro per m2 region.Over in Nice a parking space in the city centre is around €30-40,000.Like any real estate it's worth what someone is prepared to pay for it ... good old supply and demand again.

JanTy Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 We signed for 1.5 hectares of agricultural land in January for 4500€ which was exactly the last 'going rate' published by SAFER (3000€ per hectare) at the time of signing the Compromis.

mike151 Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 sorry, missed a zero off. so you're saying 650,000 euros per hectare? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ams Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 I saw a site at Pontilliac just outside Royan, the estate agent is looking for €580,000.00 for 380m2, before taxes and costs, and then one has to demolish the 1930 house and get planning permission for the new house. Just look at any of the immo sites in 17 and be prepared to be shocked. IMO way way overpriced and need huge corrections. ams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tracteurtom Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Its what you are prepared to pay. If the plot is next to your house its worth an awful lot more to you than a plot 2 kms away. Also, don't forget for any plot over 5000 m2 SAFER has to be involved and the land will be offered to the local farmers at the price you have agreed with the vendor. The farmers have first shout. So if you are paying a pitance for a nice bit of grazing land, you could find yourself out of the deal. But its always worth a haggle ! Dont forget fencing, if the plot is already closed in then can be worth a few k €. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluff Posted April 27, 2008 Share Posted April 27, 2008 Hi JanTy, where abouts in France did you get land at 4500Euros as I would be interested in buying a plot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
