The main Nice airport Terminal opens next year.
We do not know exactly when but it will be some time during the first quarter. For now, the Terminal 2 is capable of handing the traffic as the number of flights arriving is half that of the same time last year.
In March, the number of flights dropped by 99%. Despite the steady increase up to now 53% of the number last year, the number of destinations are still significantly down: only 80 airports compared to 121 last year.
The authorities are currently in a holding pattern, to see how the country copes with their expected "second wave" of the virus.

Le terminal 1 (T1) a été fermé dès le début du confinement, avec la chute vertigineuse des vols de 99 %, soit trois à quatre vols quotidiens en mars. Ce qui en fait aujourd’hui un terminal fan...Me too - have missed two pre-planned hols down there this year. Fingers crossed for early next Spring 🤞🤞
I cant wait to be one of those arrival passengers.
The holiday home of the world famous author George Simenon is up for sale, just up the road in Haut de Cagnes. Author of over 500 novels, including the renowned "Maigret" detective series, he has sold over 550 million copes of his books.
The 25m² one bedroom apartment was bought as a present for his second wife, and he described it as his "House of Happiness". The price is just €107,000. It does need some TLC, including an estimated €13,000 to fix the roof.
Thanks to Matthew Steeples for the tip-off about this one. You can read his blog here: www.thesteepletimes.com/

Not only are property prices not going down, mortgages are now harder to get.
In the spirit of mixing things up a bit, here is a French TV clip to practice your French with. Before confinement, it was possible to get up to 100% mortgages at good interest rates. Now not only are interest rates on their way up but so is the down-payment required. Many banks have now increased their minimum down-payment from 10% to 20%, meaning that over the summer the number of loans refused has nearly doubled from 6.6% to 10.7%.
The down-payment has to be provably saved by yourself, so no more family help, and from other sources I have also read that banks are no longer accepting friends or family as "guarantors". The rule rule of your repayments not exceeding 1/3 of your net income remains unchanged, but that little banker leeway for "exceptional circumstances" because of other income streams that are not normally taken into account has disappeared.
This is all bad news for first time buyers. And good news for those abroad looking to buy a holiday home in France. A little less competition for the bargains, and perhaps a chance to jump on a plane and buy before it gets sold.

I was under the impression from another article I read that prices in Nice have continued to rise and supply is limited.
Thanks Philip interesting article.
Should I close this page down?
It seems from the number of Likes for the past couple of articles that there are only 10 people reading this page.
It takes me a lot of time to research daily and then post up the interesting news that could materially affect property prices in Nice. If you have been reading but haven't hit the Like button, can you please go back now and do so for the last 2 articles so I get an idea of how many people are reading. If enough people do so, then I will continue in the existing format.
Otherwise, what would you like to see instead? I could do a monthly "Ask a Notaire" where I get a response to a submitted question. I can simply post new properties, like a normal estate agent would. What about a "Interesting facts about Nice" which reveals interesting things you might not know about landmarks or buildings?
Let me know in the comments below...
Edit: seems like a number of you want me to keep going with the news articles, and some would like me to mix it up with other types of content. So I will continue for now as is and invite you to send me suggestions of the "other" stuff you would like to see.
I agree with everyone, please keep posting. 🤗😻👍😎 And as far as content is concerned, when you don't have time to do research one time, post an interesting property or an "interview" with a Notaire or whatever, variety is good and can be less cumbersome than analysis of the news (no matter how pertinent, relevant and well thought out) and it might draw other readers interested in you and your skillset, but not so much in the Nice / Real estate related news ! Kepp up the good work in any event, you're not "writing in the dark" apparently 😉
I absolutely read all of your posts and always learn something new. It’s important to know what is going on in Nice with real estate and otherwise, especially since we can’t get there right now. I hope to have your expertise this time next year for another property.
I love reading your posts. Even though we now have our apartment (thanks to you! 😊) Lots of interesting facts and I would like to read more about Nice in general. You are a mine of information!
Really enjoy your posts and try to ‘like’ when I can. I really enjoy reading about the latest developments in Nice and would live to hear about upcoming events/projects as you learn of them. Please do not stop! 🙏😀
Please keep posting articles. They're always very informative and provide a great deal of local information. It's very much appreciated.
I have been reading but not "liking". Will do so from now on so you have a better feel for how many people are reading.
While my wife and I haven't been able to make the jump across the pond, your articles keep me interested in Nice being the place for us, and you as our estate agent. Perhaps rotate the researched articles with your aforementioned suggestions, because I can't think of a better way to learn about a city than through the eyes of a local who loves it there. In the end, no matter your choice, keep up the great work!
I also enjoy your posts 😊 I’d be interested to see interesting facts about Nice too and new properties as they come up.
I enjoy reading your posts.My husband and I find them helpful keeping me informed and up to date about property market in Nice. It is appreciated the nuggets information you share.Please keep posting.
I enjoy reading your insights.
I think you probably get more eyes on your page when you post. I wouldn't worry about the number of likes. I love your information and content. Please keep posting.
Nooooo You are useful Just had no time to be online
Please don’t stop your posts - we love Nice and reading about all the new buildings and tram extensions etc, especially as we have not been able to get down to our little apartment for nearly a year now.
I read all of your posts, they’re so informative – thank you, keep them coming if you can!
So I think you know the answer! But I don’t know how often you post- I only receive them infrequently through FB... but always enjoy your insights.
It's very useful, keeping us in touch with Nice and the property market there when we are not there ourselves. I hope you continue, it sets you apart from other agents.
I really enjoy your posts. Even though we no longer live in Nice my heart is still there and I love to know what's going on !
no . keep the articles coming please. like others here, i read all your posts, but rarely interact with likes etc.
An excellent, informative page . Hope you keep it up
I find your post very engaging! Please continue:)
I find your posts super useful but never think to "engage" with them as support. Thanks for the reminder
I don’t like your page, I love it‼️ Keep giving the updates on things happening in Nice, like all the new development and timelines for the projects. Once France opens up to us we are already planning an extended stay in Nice, our favorite vacation place.
Please keep the page open and updating. I read every one of your articles and links, the information is very beneficial, especially at a time when we are unable to visit. Your updates keep us in the know of things big and small in the region.
The plan for Nice 2.0 accelerates.
Plans have firmed up and now tenders are being put out for the massive projects that will transform Nice yet again.
The first is the demolition of the National Theater and the Acropolis centre to extend the park Coulée Verte all the way to the Palais des Expositions by the river. The Palais will also change and become a sports and cultural events centre, seating 2,000 people, and a theater seating 800 people. This may expend to engulf the buildings around it. The budget for the Palais alone is €50M.
So what will happen to the Theater and the what will replace Acropolis. The Theater will be moved into the Franciscan monastery in Place St Francois in the Old Town. I have been inside and it will be spectacular. The ceilings are the height of the building. It will seat up to 350 people and will cost €3.8M. It will open end of next year.
The conferences will move to the new centre being built up by the airport, and this project is BIG. At the heart is a 60,000m² exhibition hall, with annexes that can seat 4,700 people. By comparison, the exhibition hall in Cannes is 35,000m². The budget for this is €200M. If I was an investor with property in Cannes I would be very nervous, as rental there is heavily dependent on conferences.
The other two projects will be less noticeable to most. The first is a "countryside" park of 300,000m² between the Nikaia concert arena and the football stadium. All the architect firms have been invited to submit their most stunning designs.
Last is the closure of nearly every police station in Nice, both local and national branches. Instead, the old St Roch hospital will be transformed into a massive police station hosting every branch of the police force. It will be up to 50,000m² and cost around €200M. Works start around 2022.
So that "under construction" sign goes back up, though fortunately more on the outskirts of the city centre than last time, for what is going to make Nice seem like a brand new city. Exciting times.

The French government has accused AirBnb of paying TOO MUCH tax?
The tax office has accused AirBnb of paying too much tax. Not using their money of course, only other peoples. In France the bookings sites automatically collect a daily tourist tax of 60 cents per night per person on your behalf, called the "Taxe de Sejour". So AirBnb simply takes the number of guests and number of nights, multiplies it by 60 cents, then at the end of the year gives it to the government.
However this tax does not apply to minors, defined in France as those under 18 years old. So the tax office has denounced AirBnb for facilitating the over-payment of tax. In response, AirBnb quite reasonably points out it has no idea of the ages of each guest. They have a procedure in which guests can apply to the site for an exoneration, but nobody ever uses it. Compared to the cost of a holiday booking, the price of a baguette can easily be overlooked.
In related news, the government is looking at exonerating home owners from the Taxe de Sejour between 6th July and 31st December 2020. In practice, this will make absolutely no difference to your life.
Airbnb fait payer la taxe de séjour aux enfants en toute illégalité
www.capital.fr
Alors qu'ils en sont pourtant exonérés, les mineurs et travailleurs saisonniers se voient facturer une taxe de séjour par la plateforme de location., Lorsque vous réservez un logement sur Airbnb, ...Could 2020 be a good year for holiday rental revenue after all?
The beaches are packed. The bars are packed. The restaurants are reporting up to a 30% increase in revenue compared to this time 2019.
It is this last statistic that caught my eye. All those extra diners have to be staying somewhere. Since only inter-EU travel is allowed, Nice has been flooded with visitors not only from neighbouring countries like Switzerland and Germany, but from all over France.
Looking through the stats of a holiday lettings agency, I see that around 1/3 are over 90% full... and they are the ones with air-conditioning. Not surprising considering the heatwave we are experiencing this year. The next 1/3 without have 80-90% occupancy. Another interesting statistic is the number of guests arriving by car, up from around 20% last year to around 70% this year.
After a miserable Spring, has the increase in summer holiday makers this year done enough to catch up? A key could be all those missing their traditional Easter holiday. Will they treat themselves to an extended Christmas vacation instead? If they do, there is one place that is most likely to have some winter sun.
We will not get a full post-mortem of the year until January but things look rosier than they did a few months ago. This could change with further lock-downs but when Airbnb co-founder and CEO Brian Chesky said "I will go on the record to say that travel will never, ever go back to the way it was pre-COVID; it just won't,", that does not mean it will not be better! Once this completely new audience fall in love with Nice, and then the restrictions are lifted for the rest of the world, it could be a very busy 2021.
Is Boulevard Gambetta going to become a pedestrian zone?
It has been touted that Boulevard Gambetta will become fully pedestrian between the train station and the sea. However things are very much still in the air. At the moment, the boulevard is divided into three: two bus lanes, and a central 2-way cycle lane.
This has provoked mixed reaction. Motorists are understandably unhappy, with traffic being pushed through the smaller back streets, and the loss of even more parking which was already in short supply. A lot of shops are also unhappy about deliveries and pick-up being made more difficult. However opinion is very spread across the spectrum.
The mayor, Christian Estrosi, says the current arrangement is temporary and he has not committed to a final solution. He has started a consultation where all residents are welcome to write in with their opinions. At the same time, he is commissioning studies into wider, more global solutions, of how to manage both public and private transport in the sector. His overall aim is to push cars out of the centre between Boulevard Gambetta and Avenue Jean Medecin, and encourage the use of public transport.
In the mean time, the closest parkings of Parking Palmiera and the Parking Palais Massena have extended the first hour of free parking to the first two hours being free.
The bright news for property owners on the street is that it is almost certain not to go back to the highway it used to be.
www.nicematin.com
On n’a pas fini de parler du boulevard Gambetta. Sur la sellette: les selles des vélos qui divisent ou fédèrent les anti ou les pros piste cyclable. On n’a d’autant moins fini d’évoquer le...The war on illegal AirBnb has begun!
Though a law passed limiting AirBnb rental back in December 2018, the department created to enforce it did not have any staff until December 2019. Now they are trained and have started the chase, according to the local paper.
The department has 5 people and their job is to trawl through the online rental listings and track down the ones that are 'fraudulent'. They judge each listing by a number of criteria to whittle down which ones to investigate further.
Anybody that wants to holiday rent needs to apply to the Town Hall for a "changement usage", which is free of charge and lasts 6 years. They provide you with a registration number than needs to be pasted into each of your online adverts. They estimate there are up to 12,000 adverts in and around Nice, of which only 5,800 have a registration number. Those adverts without a registration number are currently at the top of their list to be investigated.
It should be noted that you do not need a registration number if renting out your primary residence, as long as you stay within the 120 days per year limit.
Another way of tracking is to investigate apartments that have an excessive number of noise complaints.
Once they have opened a file, the next step is to go ring on the doorbell and speak to the occupant. They do not go inside, just take down details of who is in there. They also ask the neighbours as to the comings and goings. Once they think they have enough evidence then that apartment goes into the "fraudulent" pile.
If you are reading this and are now sweating as your paperwork is not up to speed, do not worry. There will not be any fine dropping through your letterbox. The first step is a warning letter, with a clear list of penalties for violation. If you ignore the warning letter, then the next step will be a court summons to fine you.
An interesting extra is that they also track the court cases by Syndics for illegal AirBnb. If a judge finds that seasonal rental violates the buildings rules, then they will take the dossier to the Town Hall and get the "changement usage" rescinded.
It sounds a little overwhelming for so few people. I am sure we will see some interesting statistics in a years time.
And in an extra twist... the Mayor, Christian Estrosi, has decided he wants more student rental and a vote is going to happen soon that will allow unrestricted holiday rental as long as you do a 9 month student let during the academic year. I will let you know if this new law goes through.

The French government has been progressively eliminating this tax and most French people are already exempt. Remaining are "the most wealthy 20%" and those with second homes in France.
During his 14th July speech, M. Macron suggested postponing the elimination of the tax to help reduce the impact of the coronavirus on the public finances. It should be noted that a complete cancellation of the tax was his idea.
Three days later, last Friday, the Prime Minister, Jean Castex, announced that the 2023 schedule for complete elimination will be maintained. Furthermore, the Minister for Economy, Bruno Le Maire, went on to say that the "the most wealthy 20%" were not people kicking back in a life of luxury, they are mostly hard working middle-class people that already pay a lot of tax. He went further and stated unequivocally that in 2023, "there will be nobody paying this tax in 2023".
So good news for ALL home owners in France.

The mayor just got re-elected and it took him less than a week to announce the next massive change to the city. And it is a big one.
He is planning to demolish everything from the National Theater to the Palais d'Expositions, including the Acropolis, and turn it into a park. Effectively extending the Coulée Verte park all the way from the sea to the exhibition centre in the east of Nice.
The only two things remaining will be the Modern Art Museum, which will be suspended in mid-air, and the famous "Tête Carrée" (Square Head) building. It is hard to state how transformative this will be.

Wow!
Nice is pretty much COVID free.
After offering free blood tests to the whole of Nice, the initial results are in and looking good. Out of 50,000 people tested, only 1.5% of results came back positive.
Dr Philippe Seyral, head of testing, says "This shows that the virus spread very little through-out Nice, and pretty much doesn't spread here at all any more."
The doctor credits the measures taken as possibly having an effect, such as encouraging working from home and the lock-down period. He notes that we are right next door to Italy, which suffered a lot from the epidemic.
Will the heat affect the effects of COVID? The humidity? Will there be a second wave in the Autumn? There are so many unanswered questions. Nearly 8,000 detailed questionnaires were filled in by those tested and immunologists are working hard on the answers. In the mean time, he recommends continued caution just in case. With the borders opening just in time for tourist season, and symptoms not showing for up to two weeks, he recommends continued vigilance.

In the least surprising election result, Mr Estrosi comfortably walked back into office with at least 60% of the vote. The much loved mayor can now get back to work.
Though he has so far nearly never put a foot wrong, having recently taken up cycling to work he promptly turned half the city into cycle lanes. This caused a bit of a backlash where congestion simply got pushed into the smaller roads and so the excesses have been rolled back. After catching the COVID virus he also issued a couple of unrealistic directives, such as opening the beaches for "swimming only" and the restaurants where "guests are expected to wear masks whilst moving between tables", which were not a problem as the locals were quite comfortable completely ignoring them.
Overall he has done a fantastic job. The streets are safe to walk late at night. The new parks and piazzas are amazing. The (partially) underground tram that goes all the way to the airport for €1 (or €1.50 for a single) is a huge success. Nice has gone positively forward under his stewardship and it looks like things are only going to get better.
Will the economic impact of the pandemic slow him down? His ambition is to extend the Coulis Vert park all the way to the river, destroying the Acropolis and any other buildings in the way. To build one of the largest conference centres in Europe by the airport. To build what will effectively be a new city between the airport and the Ikea that will be opening later in the year. He will be unifying the differenct police forces under one roof, increasing co-operation, with access to the over 600 CCTV cameras he has installed around the city centre. The list is a long one. If one person has shown he can turn big words into big deeds, it is Mr Estrosi. We look forward to a continued bright and sunny future!
Elections municipales: vers une victoire confortable de Christian Estrosi à Nice
www.nicematin.com
Après dépouillement de 215 des 252 bureaux que compte la ville de Nice, le maire sortant Christian Estrosi fait la course en tête avec près de 60% des bulletins exprimés.The borders are now open!
The French borders are now open again. Officially they opened on Monday but we drove to Italy on the weekend and not a single police car or authority figure at the border toll booths. Everything is back exactly the way it used to be before the pandemic.
Easyjet has already resumed domestic flights but now international flights within the EU are resuming over the next few weeks. It expects to be back up at 50% of its previous roster of flights in July, and at 75% in August. Of course ability to travel may fluctuate depending on any rise or drop in coronavirus infection rates.
Speaking to one rental company, their bookings are already at 60% capacity for the month of July. It sounds like it will be a profitable summer after all, though obviously impacted by the pandemic. There are no social distancing measures in Nice so the bars and restaurants appear as normal. No news on festivals and concerts so do not count on any this summer.
Why do French apartments never have floor plans?
This is a question I often get asked. The answer is that the owner thinks it will sell whether they have one done or not so why bother. This article has some interesting statistics. For instance, in the larger cities 75% of owners think an apartment is "easy to sell". In the current market this is generally true. However further down it says around 40% had to lower their price to get a buyer and were disappointed by the final selling price. Of those, most of them said that the apartment was not priced correctly at the beginning. It wasn't so easy then, was it? Half of the problem is some agents giving the highest valuation possible to secure the sales contract, and the other half is sellers believing it.
Aside: If you want to see a floor plan, ask to see the "diagnostics" as inside there is usually a sketch of the apartment which will give the layout, though it will not be accurately to scale.
You may have noticed the same apartment is often listed multiple times, sometimes at difference prices. The reason for this is only around 24% of properties are listed exclusively with one agency. A seller usually picks an agent based on whether they like them, or if there is a family/friend connection. There is rarely any interview process. So how can an agency get an exclusivity?
According to this article, 75% of owners are prepared to hand exclusivity to an agency if they add value to the property at their own expense. For 83% they would like the agency to pay for and organise "home staging", and 60% would like the estate agency to fix their plumbing and maybe put in insulation. I can say we won't be seeing Million Dollar Listing New York appearing in France any time soon. Half the agents will not invest in a proper camera, and prefer to use their broken iPhone to take property photos. We are only slowly starting to see 360' tours. I think we will see a disconnect between the dreams of sellers and the what actually appears on your screens for some time to come.

Sean Connery's house is up for sale!
Well not really. Bought in the 1970's by Mr James Bond himself, he owned it for so long that even after it changed hands several times since it is still known today as "Sean Connery's house".
The villa is 6 stories high, with an internal lift, is 1,000m² inside and has 5,000m² of gardens... all with the most stunning views over the bay of Nice and the sea. It has indoor and outdoor swimming pools, a spa, gym, chef's kitchen, and from the photos the renovation looks spectacular.
Considering its unique location and the land it sits on, along with its size, features and finishings, it's on the market at a not entirely unreasonable €30m. Of course we are open to offers from qualified buyers.

Great to see. People are anxious to travel from the uk but the government has made an awkward decision on the quarantine which France has reciprocated. I don't think it will last...
Let’s hope they come to their senses!
The mayor capitulates, re-opens Quai Lunel.
In a rare climb-down, Christian Estrosi has re-opened the Quai Lunel to cars. It still remains one-way from the Port to the Promenade but it removes Rue de Foresta as a choke-point for cars between Place Garibaldi, Rue Emmanuel Philibert, Rue Foresta, Quai Lunel and the Promenade des Anglais.
It was never a good idea but it does show people power in the collaborative process between local governments and residents. The local paper claims a demonstration of 30 people Saturday on Rue de Foresta but I walked past and counted less than half that. Nonetheless, by Monday night the roads were transformed yet again and now Tuesday morning things are as seen in the photo.
