Real estate: should we strengthen fire safety or rely on insurance in 2025?

In Massy, Palaiseau and Chilly-Mazarin, the tragic fire at Square Louise-Michel is a stark reminder of the vulnerability of our homes to such disasters. Beyond the emotion, this event poses a crucial question for 2025: strengthen fire prevention or rely more heavily on insurance?

Experts agree that prevention is the key. Compliant works, certified materials, periodic inspections, and smoke detectors save lives. Yet, current measures are often insufficient for tenant safety. Conversely, a well-structured insurance policy protects against financial loss—temporary housing, furnishing, and relocation costs. Choosing strong guarantees is therefore just as vital as adhering to safety standards.

Local authorities, insurers, and housing agencies must work together to avoid prolonged emergencies. Stronger worksite supervision and the creation of temporary housing for victims would be concrete advances.

Nicolas Benoit, director of Nicolas Immobilier in Massy, Palaiseau, and Chilly-Mazarin, advocates a human and transparent approach. More than 1400 satisfied clients testify to his professionalism and perfect knowledge of the local market. For him, active prevention and solid coverage go hand in hand to ensure lasting protection.
