514 Properties for Sale in Beirut

The Beirut Property Market

Beirut's sale market spans a wide range, from smaller units bought as investments to large family apartments in the city's established residential districts. Prices are quoted in US dollars, and most transactions involve direct negotiation between buyer and seller rather than fixed asking prices.

The city divides sharply by district. Two areas fifteen minutes apart can differ by a third or more per square metre, driven by building age, position, and how established the district is as a residential address.

What Apartments Cost by District

Prices vary widely across Beirut. Downtown asks the most in the city by a significant margin. Achrafieh, Hamra, Ramlet el Baida and several other central and seafront districts cluster in a broadly similar upper band. Districts further from the centre ask considerably less.

These figures reflect asking prices in current listings rather than recorded sale prices, and the final price is usually negotiated. Based on listings on DoorEast, July 2026.

Choosing a District

• Achrafieh — The eastern side's most established residential district. Larger apartments in older buildings, and the strongest owner-occupier market in the city.
• Hamra — Built around the universities and hospitals. The highest concentration of smaller units, and the district with the most consistent rental demand for buyers looking at yield.
• Verdun — Newer buildings and larger apartments, at the upper end of the Beirut range.
• Badaro — A compact residential pocket in the city's south, known for its walkable restaurant strip and proximity to the Pine Forest.
• Mar Mikhael — Converted heritage buildings and smaller modern blocks alongside the restaurant and nightlife strip.

What You'll Find

Much of Beirut's stock dates from the 1960s through 1990s, with newer construction concentrated in Verdun, Sodeco and parts of the seafront. Older buildings tend to offer more space for the price, with generous room sizes and multiple balconies, though renovation standard varies sharply between neighboring addresses.

Two and three-bedroom apartments are the most common configuration across the city. Smaller units concentrate in Hamra and Mar Mikhael, and are the most straightforward to let out if you are buying to rent.

Before You Buy

View more than one apartment in the same building where you can, since condition varies enormously between units at similar asking prices. Ask about the building's power and water arrangements, and about monthly building charges, since these carry over to you as owner. Confirm what maintenance the building has planned, as older Beirut buildings occasionally levy significant one-off costs to owners.
