Rental homes in Eersel

What does a rental property cost in Eersel?

Eersel is a village where most people own their home: 70% of the more than 4,750 homes are owner-occupied. Only 30% are rented, of which the majority (22%) are social housing. The private rental sector is therefore relatively small, at around 8% of the stock. This is noticeable in availability. In the past twelve months, 36 homes have been rented out in the private sector, at an average rent of €1,609 per month. The range runs from €933 to €3,000 per month, with an average floor area of 109 m². That is substantial for a Brabant village, but fits with the WOZ value of €426,000, which is slightly below the municipal average of €448,000. Want to know what is available today?

Quiet, cosy and a two-hour walk from Belgium

Residents on Buurtje.nl give Eersel an 8.2 out of 10, and that score is not surprising when you read the reviews. What keeps coming up: peace, cosiness and the strategic location. Resident M.D.L. sums it up succinctly: "It is quiet and cosy living here in Eersel. You can go in all directions, you are in Belgium in no time and you are also in Eindhoven quickly by car. And if you like walking, you can walk to Belgium in two hours." That combination of village peace and accessibility scores highly. The partial score for accessibility is therefore an 8.5.

The heart of the village, around de Kom en Lindeakkers, offers the most amenities: supermarkets, a GP, hospitality around the Markt and primary schools. Education receives the highest partial score from residents at 8.8. Families with school-age children are therefore well represented here: the largest group of households (1,610) consists of families with children. Wybe Hauser describes his experience matter-of-factly: "Not much contact with the rest of the neighbourhood, so no problems with anything and a quiet atmosphere." That fits the picture of a neat, safe environment (safety score: 8.5) where you don't necessarily have to go to the neighbours for coffee, but you are greeted friendly.

What stands out: the score for green space is the lowest at 7.0. That sounds contradictory for a Kempen village, but within the built-up area itself, the green spaces are more limited than you might expect. The real nature is just outside the village, towards Stokkelen en Hoogstraat or via the walking routes to the Belgian border. For more information about daily life, read the extensive resident reviews and neighbourhood data of Eersel. In terms of amenities, the village scores an 8.0. There is enough for daily groceries and an evening out on the Markt, but for larger shops or culture you drive to Eindhoven in a quarter of an hour.

Renting in Eersel: for whom, for whom not?

With an average income of €39,100 and private sector rents around €1,600, a rental home in Eersel is most suitable for dual-income earners or families with an above-average income. Waiting times for social housing via the housing association are long, so if you want to move quickly, you are reliant on the private sector.
