If you want to put the test on French Riviera real estate, I suggest to pour your money in a small flat in Nice. Indeed, a 1 bedroom or 2 bedrooms flat is a secure way to invest in Nice.
First, there are many college and business schools in Nice, so your 1 bedroom flat can be rented easily by a student. Usually students in France rent flats from October to the end of May the next year. Rents go from € 400 to € 650 per month for a 1 bedroom flat and from € 600 to € 1000 per month for a 2 bedrooms flat.
Second point and this is the very good reason why you should invest in Nice : from June to September, you can rent the flat to tourists ! Now, the rent is 4 times higher : it is from € 400 to € 650 PER WEEK for a 1 bedroom flat. So, here is a little calculation in order to convince you to invest in Nice. Let’s take a one bedroom flat, with a € 500 / month student rent : 8 months x € 500 = € 4,000. Then you add 14 weeks x € 500 = € 7,000. To sum up, by year you can earn € 11,000 and you still have 2 weeks for your own holidays on the French Riviera !
To conclude, I just want to add that you can buy a very beautiful 1 bedroom flat in Nice from € 70,000 ! I am sure you are totally convinced to invest in Nice !!
