With our estate agency, invest in Nivelles in the heart of Walloon Brabant
A real town in the countryside. Nivelles is a town on a human scale, combining tradition, folklore and innovation, while always bearing in mind the need to respect and develop nature. Public structures, cultural, sporting and leisure organisations abound in the city, guaranteeing an exceptional quality of life for residents of all ages and backgrounds.
Located in the heart of Wallonia and close to major cities such as Charleroi and Brussels, the city is gradually becoming one of the best places to live. Every year, more and more buyers are trying to invest in the region. Sales of homes, whether houses, villas or flats, are fairly stable and offer great buying opportunities.
A highly sought-after quality of life
Whether it's a ‘town in the country’, the administrative centre of a judicial district, the capital of the Roman Païs, or a cultural and folklore centre, the town of Nivelles occupies a prominent position in Walloon Brabant.
It has more than 28,000 inhabitants spread over an area of more than 6,000 hectares resulting from its merger with the communes of Baulers, Bornival, Thines and Monstreux.
Nivelles is a booming economic centre, still proud of its bygone industrial past, and is resolutely looking to the future. With its rich and eventful past, the town boasts a number of historic sites and events that are well worth a visit.
The city offers large green spaces in pleasant neighbourhoods, attractive intergenerational housing projects, an extensive public transport network, world-renowned tourist attractions, a highly appreciated gastronomy and perfect connections with the rest of Europe and the world. Education (a high-quality education system), social action (comprehensive universal medical cover for its residents) and manufacturing are also among Nivelles' growth sectors. It has a comprehensive network of shops and shopping centres, and boasts some of the best cultural offerings in Europe.
No restrictions on foreigners becoming homeowners
There are no restrictions on foreigners wishing to invest in Belgium. Being a resident’ should not be confused with “owning property”. For non-residents, coming to Belgium to enjoy their property on holiday simply requires a Tourist Visa. But the priority remains long-term rental and resale after construction or renovation.
Future prospects
Real estate is a very attractive sector in this residential town. Numerous commercial enterprises offer the people of Nivelles a good quality of life as well as a wide range of employment opportunities. Building construction is one of the sectors to explore when looking for a job.
In terms of business structure, more than 500 companies are located in the many business parks in the Province of Walloon Brabant (Nivelles Sud, Nivelles Portes de l'Europe, Vallée du Hain, Jodoigne, Perwez, Tubize-Saintes, Ottignies-Louvain-la-Neuve, Wavre Nord).
The Belgian property economy suggests that the crisis is losing momentum. There is renewed interest in buying houses in Walloon Brabant, given its various assets and its proximity to Brussels and Charleroi. The number of transactions for all properties rose in 2016. The market is therefore starting to become more dynamic, with sales and rentals once again in the spotlight.
