In Landweert 1, 47% of the 831 homes are rental properties. This is a relatively high proportion, partly because housing associations own 44% of all homes here. Only 3% is owned by other landlords, meaning the free-sector rental supply is limited. The average WOZ value in Landweert 1 is €252,000, clearly lower than the district average for Landweert (€280,000) and the municipal average for Venray (€315,000).
