Selling your home: the perfect step plan

From the first valuation to the final key transfer. We guide you through the entire process.

01

Valuation & Strategy

A successful sale starts with a realistic pricing strategy. Your agent analyses the local market and proposes a price that maximises your chances and your return.

  • Free property valuation
  • Local market analysis
  • Sales strategy definition
02

Documentation & Certificates

In Belgium, several mandatory certificates are required before you can sell. Your agent guides you through collecting all necessary documents.

  • EPC (energy performance certificate)
  • Soil certificate
  • Electrical inspection
03

Presentation & Marketing

First impressions are crucial. A quality agent invests in professional photography and a targeted marketing campaign to reach the right buyers.

  • Professional photography
  • Publication on Immoweb and portals
  • For sale sign
04

Viewings & Feedback

The agent coordinates all viewings, filters serious candidates and keeps you informed of feedback. You don't have to manage this yourself.

  • Viewing organisation
  • Candidate follow-up
  • Viewing report
05

Negotiation & Offer

Strategic negotiation is a good agent's speciality. They defend your interests and ensure the best price under the best conditions.

  • Solvency check
  • Price negotiation
  • Offer acceptance
06

Compromise & Notary

Once an agreement is reached, the agent prepares the sales compromise with the notary. This document is legally binding for both parties.

  • Compromise drafting
  • Deposit payment
  • Notarial file preparation
07

Deed & Transfer

Signing the authentic deed at the notary marks the official end of the sale. The keys are handed over and the amount is transferred to your account.

  • Deed signing
  • Meter readings
  • Key handover

Smartly prepared for the sale

In addition to the step-by-step plan, there are a number of things you can do to speed up the sale.

Certificates & Documentation

Ensure your EPC and asbestos certificate are in order on time to avoid delays.
