At the southern tip of Lake Morat, Faoug lies next to Avenches, right on the cantonal border with Fribourg.
At CHF 6,800 per m² for a flat, Faoug is one of the cheaper places to buy in Vaud. Lower entry prices normally come with a longer commute or an older building, and one of the two usually explains the discount. before 1919 accounts for 20 percent of homes in Faoug, ahead of the other periods without dominating them. A mixed stock widens the price range inside one commune, where two flats of the same size can be a third apart on condition alone.
The average home in Faoug has 3.8 rooms for 111 m². That ratio describes the shape of local demand better than the price does. Many small rooms point to family housing, fewer and larger ones to conversions and new build. Few properties sell in Faoug each year, so the figures on this page rest on a small sample. Read them as an order of magnitude, since in a thin market two neighbouring sales can land far apart for no visible reason.
Half the flats sold in Faoug went above CHF 6,800 per m² and half below, which puts the commune 14 percent from the Vaud median. One exceptional sale barely moves a median, and that is why we use it instead of an average. Sitting under the Vaud median gives a buyer room, though the discount is rarely free. It usually pays for distance from a station, from the lake, or from a school catchment that people compete over. Against the Broye-Vully district the gap comes to 11 percent. This is the comparison that carries weight for an estimate, because communes in one district share a labour market, a transport network and the same pool of buyers.
The last twelve months added 2.8 percent in Faoug. Rises of this order usually come from a shortage of listings rather than from a wave of new buyers, and they unwind faster than they build. Over 25 years the median moved from CHF 4,300 to CHF 8,000 per m², a change of +86 percent. That is the market, not your property. A flat renovated in the meantime followed a different curve entirely.
Before you settle on a price in Faoug, get a number that reflects your own property rather than the commune. It takes a few minutes, and it changes what you are able to defend in a negotiation.

20 percent of homes in Faoug date from before 1919. That age band sets the technical agenda for a buyer here, since insulation, heating system and windows are what decide running costs for the next twenty years.
