French Real Estate Prices (DVF) — Property Sales by Commune

Get real, officially recorded French property sale prices for any commune, straight from the government's DVF open data (Demandes de Valeurs Foncières — "prix immobilier France", "valeur foncière", "prix au m²"). Every property sale registered by the French tax administration is in here: what sold, when, for how much, at what address, with GPS coordinates. This actor turns that into clean, tabular data — with median price and median price per m² computed per commune.

This actor is free. You only pay your own Apify platform usage.

Input

Field	Type	Description
communes	array (required)	5-character INSEE commune codes (not postal codes). 59350 = Lille, 75101 = Paris 1st, 2A004 = Ajaccio. Paris/Lyon/Marseille split by arrondissement.
year	integer	Transaction year. DVF publishes 2021–2025. Default 2023.
propertyTypes	array	Filter: Maison, Appartement, Dépendance, Local industriel. commercial ou assimilé. Empty = all.
natureMutation	string	e.g. Vente. Empty = all.
minPrice / maxPrice	integer	Price bounds in EUR.
maxResultsPerCommune	integer	Cap per commune. Default 500.
includeSummary	boolean	Attach commune-level medians to each item. Default true.

Output

One dataset item per transaction. Every item carries a status field (found / not_found / error), so a bad input never breaks a run.

Use cases

• Property valuation — benchmark an asking price against what actually sold nearby, per m².
• Real estate market analysis — track median €/m² by commune and year, spot rising or cooling markets.
• PropTech & lead enrichment — enrich listings or CRM records with true transaction history.
• Research & journalism — reproducible, source-of-truth housing data for a town, city or region.

Limitations & fair use

• Source: DVF open data published by the DGFiP / Etalab under the Licence Ouverte 2.0 (open licence, free to reuse with attribution).
• Alsace-Moselle (57, 67, 68) and Mayotte (976) are not covered by DVF — these use a different land registry. Those communes return not_found.
• DVF is published with a lag; the most recent year is partial.
• Prices are the recorded sale value (valeur foncière) and may cover several lots in one transaction — check nombre_lots context via landAreaSqm / builtAreaSqm before comparing.
• The actor is polite to the source: retries with backoff and a short delay between communes.
