Real estate market in Lochristi
The property market in Lochristi recorded impressive figures in the fourth quarter of 2025. The median sale price for a residential property stands at €430,000, representing an increase of no less than 30.5% compared to the previous year, when the median was still €329,500. With 78 registered transactions during the measurement period, the market is active, although the limited supply means that well-located properties sell quickly. The price range between the first and third quartile runs from €337,000 to €550,000, indicating that both entry-level homes and more exclusive properties are available. For buyers, it is important to understand that Lochristi has long been a magnet for dual-income households and young families, owing to its location along the E17 motorway and its proximity to Ghent - just ten kilometres from the city centre. The good connections via the N70 towards Ghent, combined with the presence of primary schools, shops and sports facilities, make the municipality attractive for those who wish to live in a green environment with urban conveniences within easy reach. For sellers, the current market dynamics offer a favourable climate. The strong price increase reflects a structural demand that exceeds supply, and buyers are willing to pay market-rate prices for properties in good condition. Those putting their property in Lochristi up for sale would do well to work with an estate agent who has thorough knowledge of the local sub-municipalities, as price differences between, for example, Beervelde and Zeveneken can be considerable.
