Location remains the number-one criterion: proximity to public transport, schools and shops. Next come energy performance (the EPC certificate directly impacts running costs), surface area, the overall condition of the property and the total budget including additional fees. Our local agents help you prioritise these criteria according to your rental project.

In Belgium, the rental deposit cannot exceed 2 months' rent if paid into a blocked account, or 3 months if provided as a bank guarantee. This amount is held until the end of the lease and returned after the exit inspection, minus any damages recorded.

Landlords generally ask for the last 3 payslips, proof of address, a copy of your identity document and sometimes references from previous landlords. A self-employed tenant will provide their last 3 tax returns. These documents allow the landlord to assess the financial reliability of the prospective tenant.
