Saint‑Étienne, a city with strong real estate potential
Saint-Étienne combines a rich industrial heritage with ambitious urban transformation. The real estate market, affordable and in full evolution, attracts students, young professionals and investors looking for returns. Our local real estate hunters rely on a detailed knowledge of neighborhoods to find the best deals, anticipate trends and support you from research to signature.
🏛️ Heritage & exceptional neighborhoods
Saint-Étienne has a rehabilitated industrial heritage: gardens, former converted factories and historic town halls. The Hyper-Centre, lively and friendly, attracts young professionals and investors. The Cours Fauriel, described as the “Champs‑Élysées Stéphanois”, offers opulent buildings and prestigious spaces. Châteaureux, around the station, became a dynamic business center with new housing and offices. Badouillère, on the other hand, combines classical architecture and university proximity, ideal for students.
🚆 Accessibility & mobility
Connected and well served, Saint-Étienne offers an efficient urban transport network (3 tram lines, more than 40 bus lines). The Châteaureux TGV station allows you to reach Lyon in less than 1 hour, and the proximity to the motorway (A72, A47) facilitates trips to Clermont‑Ferrand or Roanne. For soft mobility, the city is banking on cycle paths, with the ambition of densifying this network in the years to come.
🏘️ Real estate offer & buyer profiles
The Saint-Etienne market is varied: old apartments with charm in the Hyper-Center, studios or one-bedroom apartments for student rentals, family T4/T5s at low prices, to houses in peripheral neighborhoods. The average price reaches around €1,331 to €1,393/m², which is one of the most accessible of major French cities. Investors find favorable ground there: gross return of around 9—10% and rental demand supported by 30,000 students and a growing working population.
🌿 Quality of life & facilities
Saint-Étienne offers a living environment combining nature and urbanity. The city has many green spaces, such as the Jardin des Plantes, the Parc de l'Europe or the surrounding hills. On the cultural side, it is labeled “City of Art and History” with more than 40 protected monuments. A rich associative life, festivals and music scenes reinforce local attractiveness. Sports facilities are numerous (Geoffroy‑Guichard stadium, Zenith, swimming pool), and downtown shops offer proximity that is appreciated on a daily basis.
It works for everyone. Including you.
Your questions
Our rental hunting service is composed of two parts:
- Administrative fees, which allow the mission to be launched and cover the framework, coaching and initial organization.
- Successful fees, paid only if you sign a lease for a home found through Mecaza.
We offer three rental options according to your level of autonomy for visits:
- Relocation: €999, a real estate hunter accompanies you from A to Z to source, schedule visits, provide advice and help you sign the apartment of your dreams quickly. The price includes €400 in administrative fees to be paid to launch the mission then €599 when the lease is signed. The duration of the support is 2 months.
- Premium: €1,600, including the standard offer and it is your hunter who makes the visits. The price includes €700 in administrative fees to be paid to launch the mission then €900 when the lease is signed. The duration of the support is 4 months.
- VIP: €1,800, including the premium offer and our hunters carry out the inventory and hand over the keys. Great for people who don't live on site. The price includes €800 in administrative fees to be paid to launch the mission then €1000 when the lease is signed. The duration of the support is 4 months.
Our prices for buying and selling:
- Simple mandate: 3.5% of the purchase price and starting from €9,900.
- Exclusive mandate: 2.5% of the purchase price and starting at €7,900.
- Buy new: 0%, the fees are free because we are paid by the promoter you have chosen.
Our prices for the hunt for investment:
A fixed price of 4990€ including 600€ in administrative fees to be paid to launch the mission and the balance when the authentic act is signed at the notary. The objective is to build a wealth easily and to work together over the long term.
A real estate agent works for the seller, from whom he received a sales mandate, and is committed to promoting this property in order to market it. Its main objective is to satisfy the seller by getting the best price.
On the other hand, a real estate hunter acts exclusively for the buyer. It operates under a research mandate and searches the entire market — agencies, individuals, networks — to find a property corresponding precisely to the needs of its client. He selects, pre-visits, negotiates and accompanies the buyer until the signature, without conflict of interest.
In summary, this total neutrality allows the hunter to bring:
- Time saver, thanks to ultra-targeted and effective research.
- Extensive expertise, to identify anomalies, control prices, and secure the transaction.
- Personalized support, from the specifications to the authentic act.
👉 Using a real estate hunter means ensuring a buying or renting process that is more efficient, secure and focused on your interests.
