Why is it interesting to call an estate agent?

When you first begin searching for a house or apartment, the process can quickly feel overwhelming. There may be plenty of listings, but also many other buyers competing for the same properties. If you're unsure about what to look for or want to avoid making a poor investment, turning to a real estate expert can provide the guidance and reassurance you need.

Here are a few things your real estate agents can do for you:

  • They know the market and have contacts with local sellers so they already have a few properties to show their new clients.
  • If you did not find the exact match in the catalogue, they can handle the search and make calls for you, saving you a lot of time.
  • They always stick to your criteria: location, size, number of rooms, price, gardens, renewable energy systems...
  • They can do the property valuation: this step is necessary to avoid bad surprises such as hidden defects.
  • They will be present if negotiations are needed, with their knowledge of the market and property values, their word will have a serious impact in the process.
  • They have all the legal information necessary to conclude a deal that is interesting for buyers as well as for sellers.
  • They know how to manage all of the paperwork once the agreement is signed.

For the people who need it, your agent can also refer them to mortgage brokers or attorneys that are part of their network. If you want to sell a property, they will find quickly serious buyers ready to make an offer. They also provide home staging services.

Looking for a new apartment or a land to build a house? Should you decide to do the research yourself, you might find it tedious and miss out on great offers, as they usually come and go rather quickly. Using the service of real estate agents and their knowledge of the market might be your best shot. Indeed, they will relieve you of the stress that the search undoubtedly causes and will present you with several offers according to your own requirements. Moreover, through them, you will benefit from a large network of owners, sellers and building contractors. This is a good way to conclude a good deal for both parts and acquire quality properties.

Buying your new house is for sure a demanding activity with many other people looking for similar offers, hence why hiring your own real estate agent is ideal. Thanks to their assistance, you can save time, but also money. Through a house appraisal of the property, they gather helpful knowledge on all of its characteristics and thus, are able to better guide you in your search. No one wants to find hidden defects in their new flat shortly after moving in, resulting in a bad investment. Trust them to take all cautionary measures to spare you of any unwelcome surprises. Please note that a notary is required in every property transaction. Make sure to include their fees when calculating the final amount you’ll have to pay. Also keep in mind that the registration fee can vary depending on the region where you’re looking to buy.

When you finally have found the ideal house, your agent will help you bargain with the owner. Indeed, there are several conditions favouring a lower sale price. For example, the period it has been offered for sale, the price of other similar properties in the same area, highlighting the weaknesses of the property and so on. Before deciding to buy a house, it is highly recommended to ascertain all your needs are going to be fulfilled. If not, there are chances you will have to start construction or transformation works. The costs of those may exceed the budget you had established. Of course, there are high probabilities the house or apartment does not meet 100% of your requirements. That is the reason why it is important to know what concessions you are ready to make. Cliquez sur le lien ci-dessous pour trouver une bien immobilier à Waterloo : maison à vendre en Brabant wallon.

If you still have doubts but don't want to miss out on a property that could be the one you've been searching for, there's a solution. You can make an offer to the seller with conditional clauses. This means your offer will only be binding if certain agreed-upon conditions are met- otherwise, you can withdraw without any financial penalty.

Overall, real estate agents provide a wide range of services that can help buyers and sellers navigate the complex process of real estate market, moreover in a city as densely populated as Brussels.

The rights and obligations of a new owner

This is it! You have finally found the perfect place to settle. As an owner, you will benefit from special rights. It starts with the tax allowance granted to buyers. When you purchase a house or another kind of estate, you have to pay a registration fee going to the Region you live in, as mentioned above. Depending on the price of the place and other factors (for example, if you were already living there), this fee can be more or less expensive. In order to help people to buy their own house, there is a reduction of this price (called abattement in French). In Brussels, you don't have to pay the fee until 175 000€. Exceeding this amount, there is a tax of 12,5%, but if you fulfil some conditions it could be less.

There is another thing that will be new in your tax return: the cadastral income. It is a fictive income, which is equivalent to the amount of money you would have won if you had rent your estate for a year (since the tax return has to be submitted once a year). What you will have to pay in the end is called the property tax and consists in a percentage of the cadastral income. Do not hesitate to ask these questions to your agent.
