Renting in Gesworen Hoek: a tight private sector, but affordable compared to Tilburg
Gesworen Hoek is a neighbourhood where buying is the norm: 57% of the housing stock consists of owner-occupied homes. Of the remaining 43% rental properties, the vast majority are owned by housing associations (38%), meaning the private sector here is particularly small. In the past twelve months, only 6 private sector homes were rented out, with an average rent of €1,895 per month. That sounds steep, but it is still below the level seen in many other Tilburg neighbourhoods. The average WOZ value in Gesworen Hoek is €259,000, clearly lower than the municipal average of €314,000 for Tilburg. This indicates that this is not an expensive prestige neighbourhood, but a down-to-earth, accessible area. Anyone looking for a rental home in the private sector here should expect limited supply.
