Am I Eligible for Tax Reductions for the Purchase of My First Property?
Yes, if you purchase your primary residence, you may benefit from a reduction on registration fees (a deduction of €175,000 under certain conditions in the Brussels-Capital Region). We will explain everything during your first appointment.
What Documents are Necessary for Selling?
You will need:
- The title deed
- The EPC certificate
- The electrical report
- The condominium regulations (if applicable)
- The property plans, if available
Our agency will help you gather all these documents.
How Long Does it Take to Sell a Property in Brussels?
It depends on the type of property and the asking price, but on average, a sale is concluded between 1 and 2 months in Etterbeek. A fair price and good presentation speed up the process.
Should I Undertake any Work before Selling?
Not necessarily. Minor home staging or a few repairs can enhance the property’s appeal, but we will guide you in evaluating what is truly cost-effective before listing it for sale.
What are the Fees Associated with Selling My Property?
As a seller, you will need to anticipate:
- The agency fees (commission payable only upon successful sale)
