Lyon is one of the six major European cities that property investors prefer*. This positive observation sums up how attractive the Lyon property market is. When one also remembers that the urban area is praised for its quality of life, it is easy to understand that it attracts and shines throughout Europe and the world.
The take-up rates for office, activities and logistics premises, the limited rise in cost per square meter, competitive in relation to the rest of Europe, are key factors bearing on the property situation in Lyon.
