Overview
- Paris Habitat, RIVP and Elogie-Siemp approved the freeze, covering roughly 80% of the capital’s social-housing stock.
- The move cancels a potential 2026 rent rise tied to Insee’s reference index, which was capped at 1.04%.
- The municipality says it strongly encouraged the decision, with deputy Jacques Baudrier citing €500 million in 2025 subsidies for landlords.
- Tenant group CNL welcomed the relief and noted the last comparable rent freeze dates to 2017.
- La France insoumise criticized the pre-election timing and demanded guarantees against 2027 catch-up hikes or increases passed through charges.
