– Demountable houses are built without a foundation.
To fight against increasing real estate prices, this town has done strong. Located in Haut-Jura, the town of La Pesse imagined the creation of a light hamletreports France 3. It is a group of houses “reversible” and dismountable, built on space belonging to the municipality, and rented to modest homes who pay their rent to the community. The objective of this real estate project: to attract new residents while leaving the municipalities in control of their land.
How can we guarantee the interest of new tenants? By offering very low prices, between 100 and 250 euros per month to rent a house. This very attractive amount should arouse the curiosity of many people looking for accessible housing. In La Pesse, the housing in the light hamlet would not do more 40 square meters, with large gardens which could be around 200 square meters, specifies the chain. An almost unbeatable value for money for the sector.

Revitalize the activity of a city which has many second homes
The town, located very close to the ski slopes, is very popular. Contacted by our colleagues, Julien Carnot, the deputy mayor, believes that houses are selling there today between “400,000 and 500,000 euros”. Nearly 40% of the village’s homes serve as office secondary houses and are regularly vacant. Thanks to this system, the town hall wants to revitalize the city’s activity and give other people a chance to be able to afford accommodation at the bottom of the Jura mountains.

This initiative, launched by the Hameaux Légers association, has already been implemented in Brittany. In France, twenty-five cities are currently working on the project. In the commune of La Pesse, five to ten homes could see the light of day by 2026. The municipality must now buy the land to be able to deploy the reversible houses and welcome the first tenants.
