The property market in Meerhout shows a notable evolution in the second quarter of 2025. The median sale price for residential properties stands at €280,000, representing a decline of 9.7% compared to the previous year, when the median was still €310,000. With 26 registered residential transactions recorded during this period, it is a relatively limited market, meaning that individual transactions have a greater influence on average prices. Buyers who have been following the market for some time will notice that there is once again room for negotiation, something that was less straightforward in recent years. For sellers, it is important to set realistic price expectations and to position the property well. The price range between the first and third quartile runs from €254,000 to €320,000, indicating a considerable spread depending on the type of property, its condition, and its location within the municipality. A well-maintained semi-detached or detached property with a garden generally performs better than flats, which are in any case less prevalent in Meerhout. Anyone considering buying or selling in Meerhout would do well to engage a local estate agent who is familiar with the specific dynamics of this Kempen municipality. The market is small but active enough to offer opportunities, both for first-time buyers and for those looking to move up the property ladder in search of greater living comfort in a green environment.
