The finding is not new and is getting stronger year after year: Walloon Brabant is the most expensive Walloon province in terms of real estate. In 2022, according to figures from the Belgian statistical office, Statbel, on the basis of deeds of sale registered with the FPS Finances, the median price of a house with 2 or 3 facades reached €315,000. For semi-detached houses, it is €465,000 and for apartments €245,000.
The median price? It indicates that 50% of the goods sold at a higher price and 50% at a lower price.
In Wallonia, in 2022, the median prices amounted to €175,000 for a house (2-3 facades), €290,000 for a house with 4 facades and €175,000 for an apartment. At the Belgian level, they were respectively €255,000 (2-3 facades), €360,000 (4 facades) and €230,000 (apartments).
