Local market highlights
Real estate market in Sint-Laureins
The property market in Sint-Laureins is relatively limited in volume, which is immediately an important characteristic for anyone looking to buy or sell here. In the fourth quarter of 2025, 25 residential transactions were recorded, with a median sale price of €300,000. Prices range between €227,000 and €332,500 for the middle segment (Q1-Q3), indicating that the market remains accessible compared to more urban areas in the province. For buyers, this represents a genuine opportunity to acquire a quality property at a reasonable price. For sellers, the low transaction volume is a double-edged sword: demand exists, but supply is limited, which keeps prices relatively stable. Anyone putting their property on the market in Sint-Laureins would do well to work with an estate agent who has thorough knowledge of the local market, as accurate pricing is even more important here than in a market with a high transaction density. The location near the Dutch border and the connection to Eeklo - the regional centre town - make Sint-Laureins attractive to families and dual-income households seeking peace and space, whilst still wanting to live with good accessibility. The municipality comprises several sub-municipalities including Watervliet, Waterland-Oudeman, and Sint-Jan-in-Eremo, each with their own character and range of properties.
