Real Estate Market 2025: A New Balance on the Basque Coast and in the south of Landes

After a marked slowdown observed between 2022 and 2023, the real estate market in the south of Landes and on the Basque Coast is gradually regaining momentum. Since spring 2025, local indicators show a renewed sense of confidence, driven by falling interest rates and more adjusted prices.

A Measured Recovery

Transaction volumes are on the rise again, supported by a greater supply and a reshaped demand. Property owners are now accepting more realistic market values, helping sales move more smoothly. On the buyers’ side, the dominant profile remains that of solvent purchasers, often without financing, attracted by the atlantic coast’s quality of life and the long-term security of their investment.


Contrasting Trends Depending on Property Type

In the most sought-after areas, from Saint-Jean-de-Luz to Hossegor, via Guéthary and Biarritz,  exceptional properties are retaining their value. Architect-designed houses, seaside villas, and homes with ocean views or premium locations remain rare and highly desirable. Conversely, apartments and second homes in less prime locations have experienced a slight correction, reflecting a market that has become more selective and rational.


An Environment to Watch

Recent measures on short-term rentals and rent controls are influencing the local market. The vast majority of owners now prefer to either hold or sell rather than rent, contributing to a broader supply. While fundamentals remain strong, the economic and fiscal environment calls for caution: the market continues to be sensitive to national political and economic developments.


Enduring Attractiveness

The south of Landes and the Basque Coast continue to attract a discerning clientele seeking nature, culture, and authenticity. This lasting appeal, combined with limited land availability and the area’s exceptional quality of life, ensures valuable stability, especially in the high-end segment.
