Homes for rent in Sidi Hassine

The search that comes up most for this delegation, in Arabic as in French, is "house for rent Sidi Hassine". It says exactly what families want: a dar with its own front door, a courtyard or at least a roof terrace, at a rent you no longer find anywhere else in the governorate. This page brings together everything for rent in the delegation, whole house, ground floor, self-contained upper floor or flat, in El Jaiara, Birine, Cité du 20 Mars and the Sidi Hassine district.

To be honest about the numbers: very few listings are online, posted by private owners, and most of the market still runs through neighbours and notices taped to doors. On Houni, the advertiser gives their number and you deal with them with no middleman. To widen the search, see all homes to rent in the Tunis governorate, handy for comparing with Ezzouhour or Hrairia.

A whole dar or a single floor: what the area offers

The multi-storey family house is the norm. It goes up floor by floor on a 100 to 200 m² plot, as the family's savings allow, and each finished floor often ends up rented out. Renting a whole house is therefore rarer than renting a floor. When a whole dar for rent in Sidi Hassine appears, it is usually because the owner has moved, often to a more central district, or because the house belongs to an emigrant who lets it until they come back.

A ground floor with a courtyard suits families with small children and older people who would rather avoid stairs. An upper floor, brighter and less damp, is what young couples go for. A house for rent in El Jaiara is a different negotiation from one in Birine: El Jaiara is dense and full of shops; Birine and 20 Mars still have empty plots between the buildings, more quiet, but also some unpaved streets.

Rents and timing

Rents in Sidi Hassine are among the lowest in the capital. In 2026, an S+2 upper floor often rents for 400 to 650 DT, and a whole house with a courtyard rarely goes above 900 DT, unless it is recent and spacious. These are ballpark figures, not fixed prices: the finish, separate meters and the distance to the bus stop all move the rent.

Lets are almost always yearly, unfurnished, on a renewable lease. Demand rises at the end of summer and in September, when families want to enrol the children at the local school before term starts. A tenant looking in winter or spring has a better chance of negotiating, and a cheap rental in Sidi Hassine is easier to land at that time of year.

Before you sign: lease, deposit, neighbours

The owner very often lives in the same house, just above or just below. That helps, since repairs get done quickly, but agree from the start on who uses the roof terrace, the courtyard and the parking space by the door. Ask for a written, registered contract, state the deposit (usually one to two months' rent) and do a check-in inventory with photos.

Check two points specific to the delegation as well. First, drainage: some streets near the Sebkha Séjoumi flood during the heavy autumn rains, so ask the neighbours. Second, connections: not every new build in Birine and 20 Mars is hooked up to the mains sewer.

If you only want a flat, the apartments for rent in Sidi Hassine page narrows it down to upper floors and S+2 flats. For an even tighter budget, a flatshare in Sidi Hassine lets you split the rent.
