After the drama that occurred in the house of Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès, buyers managed to buy the property at a relatively low price given the Nantes market, to resell it at a much more expensive price afterwards.
the Boulevard Robert Schumann is one of the main arteries of Nantes, linking the center to the north of the city, towards the ring road. Suffice to say that it is a very popular sector by all people wishing to acquire a house in the city of the Dukes, and thus become an owner. The property located at number 55 has had a unique history, since it is there that the family of Xavier Dupont de Ligonnes was found, buried under the terrace, on April 21, 2011. That day, the bodies of the mother and the four children were discovered by the authorities, after an investigation had been opened following their disappearance, and Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès remains untraceable.
As specified West France, it took five years for the Dupont de Ligonnès family home to find buyers. Our colleagues report that the property sold for €260,000, a relatively modest sum considering the real estate market in Nantes, the house measuring 100 square meters and the surface of the land being 320 square meters. The price per square meter amounted, at the time, to €3,900 on average. Always according to West France, the house was sold again in 2019 for a much more expensive sum. Indeed, the property was put up for sale at €479,000, the price at which it snapped up. The sellers therefore did a capital gain of more than 200,000 euroswhile the real estate market in Nantes did not take off as much over the period.
The real estate agency in charge of the sale had pointed out at the time that it was systematically mentioned the drama that had occurred in the house a few years earlier, during the visits. “The neighborhood is popular. The house is worth more, but it is obligatory to announce the massacre that took place in this house” assigned an agent to West France.

Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès gone to America?
The disappearance of Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès remains a mystery, so much so that today we speak of him as being the most wanted man in France. If the investigation stalls, the main suspect in the fivefold murder would have been seen several times in different parts of the world. But each of the reports ended in failure. One of his friends, author of the book the impossible friend, estimates that he would have gone to America to rebuild his life there. A priori disturbed by money problems and indoctrinated in a group of prayers, Xavier Dupont de Ligonnès would have decided to do “reset” elsewhere according to him…
