Average in Flanders
The property market in Haaltert presents a nuanced picture in the fourth quarter of 2025. The median sale price for residential properties stands at €316,000, representing a decline of 5.7% compared to the previous year, when the median was still €335,000. With 46 registered residential transactions recorded during the measurement period, this is a relatively limited market, meaning that individual transactions have a greater influence on price trends. Prices range between €242,500 and €395,000 (Q1-Q3 interquartile range), indicating that both starter homes and higher-quality family homes are available. For buyers, the current market correction presents an interesting opportunity. The price decline creates room for negotiation, whilst the supply in Haaltert traditionally consists of semi-detached and detached properties on larger plots - a profile that is difficult to find in the more urbanised surroundings of Aalst or Dendermonde. Sellers would do well to position their property realistically: the market has become more selective and buyers are better informed than ever. Haaltert comprises several sub-municipalities including Denderhoutem, Kerksken, Heldergem, and Nieuwerkerken, each with its own character and housing offer. The N42 and the proximity of the E40 provide solid road connections towards Ghent and Brussels, which also makes the municipality attractive for commuters who wish to live outside the city whilst travelling there on a daily basis.
