Short, sourced answers with figures, ready to use as they are, with a link to the full analysis.

How much does a square metre cost in Monaco?

See the analysis

Why is property so expensive in Monaco?

Monaco is an extremely limited territory, just 2.08 km², and every new development is absorbed by demand very quickly. It is a capital market, not an income market: on IMSEE's former series, the resale price per square metre rose 3.5-fold from 2006 to 2024.

See the analysis

Are rents rising in Monaco?

Yes. Across lettings handled by the agency from January to August 2025, rents rose on average by 8 to 15 %, with a record +37 % on a prestige apartment.

See the analysis

How many property sales were there in Monaco in 2025?

IMSEE recorded 493 transactions worth €5,859.9 million in 2025. The average resale price reached €7.6 million, an all-time record.

Property confidentiality in Monaco: what should never be published

In a country of 2.08 km², nobody needs a name to point to someone. That is why an estate agency's discretion is best judged by what it chooses not to publish, and why it pays to check before signing a mandate.

What is the real impact of the FATF grey list on the real estate market in Monaco?

The FATF's grey list has not caused a drop in prices or a drop in real estate transactions in Monaco. Its impact is mainly banking and administrative, without calling into question the fundamentals of the market.

Petrini concepts

The notions we have put into words

Ideas born of our day-to-day work in the market, published and explained in our analyses. They may be quoted with their author's name.

Billionaires' Triangle
To qualify this economic continuity I now use the term Billionaires’ Triangle: a strategic corridor linking the Casino de Monte‑Carlo, the Metropole and Mareterra, within which the bulk of the Principality’s ultra‑high‑net‑worth capital is concentrated.
In Monaco, you buy a lot, not square metres
In Monaco, a property is sold as a lot: the marketed floor area carries no specific legal guarantee and does not appear on the deed of sale signed before the notary.
Cycles: why renting precedes buying
A property cycle, in the sense in which we use the term, is the alternation of phases during which demand bears mainly on renting, then mainly on buying, driven by the gap that opens between rents and prices.
A capital market, not an income market
Monaco is a capital market, not an income market, and the two are measured in completely different ways.
Confidentiality does not end at the notary's door
Confidentiality is judged not by how invisible a listing is, but by how many people are actually exposed to the information and what they know.
Owning tomorrow's new building
Because in Monaco, an old building often holds within it the new one that will one day take its place.
