Real estate market in Stekene
The property market in Stekene remains stable and healthy. According to the most recent figures from the fourth quarter of 2025, the median price for a residential property is €327,500, a slight increase compared to the previous year when the median stood at €325,000. This rise of 0.8% is modest but indicates that the market here has not become overheated - a reassuring signal for both buyers and sellers. Prices range from €220,000 in the lower segment to €468,500 for properties in the upper quartile, reflecting a varied supply. For buyers, Stekene offers a realistic alternative to the increasingly expensive property market in Sint-Niklaas or the Antwerp periphery. The supply consists primarily of semi-detached and detached properties, with generous plots that are scarcely affordable in urban environments. The municipality comprises several sub-municipalities, including Kemzeke and Nieuwkerken-Waas, each with its own character and level of amenities. Sellers in Stekene benefit from a market that, whilst not growing spectacularly, enjoys consistent demand. With 78 residential transactions recorded during the measurement period, there is sufficient market activity to allow for accurate pricing. A local estate agent with knowledge of the Waasland sub-markets is indispensable in determining the correct positioning and achieving the maximum return from a sale.
