On real estate sites, there are no longer any ads for students.
Logically, it is in the two university towns of the department, at Evry-Courcouronnes and Orsay, that furnished rentals are exploding in Essonne.
According to the barometer of our partner SeLoger, in one year, the volume of ads on the site for this type of property has increased by 95.8% in the city prefecture.
They have therefore almost doubled!
“Ideal student and low budget, furnished room, including bed, wardrobe and desk.
465 euros, charges included.
»Located just two kilometers from the University of Evry and a stone's throw from major schools such as ENSIIE (National School of Computer Science for Industry and Business), the École des mines de Paris, Télécom & Management SudParis or the Faculty of Trades, this small apartment of 10 square meters will most likely be rented by one of the 12,000 students from the neighboring university.

However, despite numerous advertisements on the Internet, the manager of the real estate agency L'Adresse admits "renting relatively few furnished": "The reality of the market is there, he assures.
Many students come from the provinces and cannot find accommodation in student residences.
But we have quite a few furnished rentals.
According to this specialist, the ads would mostly be submitted by individuals themselves.
“These are often shared flats with several rooms,” he continues.
To fight against sleep merchants, the town hall has put in place the rental permit.
The work, the surfaces, everything is studied.
Some therefore prefer to bypass the agencies.
The condominiums are also vigilant, to avoid too much inconvenience to the inhabitants, some ensure that there are not too many co-rentals in the building.

"With furnished apartments, everyone is a winner"
In Orsay, the presence of the university also boosts the rental of furnished accommodation.
This time, it is a jump of nearly 63% that was recorded by the site SeLoger.
“It has exploded for five years, confirms Brice Previtera, real estate advisor for the Lavil group in Orsay.
Each year, from June during the non-Covid period, we have an average of one student per day who comes to the agency.
"
Brice Previtera is categorical, “with furnished accommodation, everyone wins”.
“For the tenant, it's ideal: he just has to put down his suitcases.
Crockery, duvet, table and chairs but also a refrigerator are, among other things, part of the mandatory equipment.
It's very convenient when you move in and when you leave, you don't have to worry about moving your furniture.
