Rental homes in Tilligte, Dinkelland

Renting in Tilligte: a small private sector in an owner-occupied neighbourhood

Tilligte is a pronounced owner-occupied neighbourhood. Of the 288 homes, 84% are owner-occupied, making the rental market here limited. Only 16% of the housing stock consists of rental properties, the majority of which (13%) are owned by private landlords. Social housing is scarce: only 3% of the total supply falls under social rent. So anyone looking for a rental home in Tilligte will almost always be in the private sector. Over the past twelve months, two homes were rented out in the private sector, with an average rent of €1,395 per month and an average living area of 158 m². The range was €1,395, indicating that supply is very narrow. For the current daily price and availability, you can consult the overview at the top of this page. The WOZ value of €403,000 is higher than the municipal average of €379,000 for Dinkelland, which partly explains the relatively high rents in the private sector.

Tilligte: close-knit village with a strong sense of community

Tilligte is a small Twente village with about 755 residents, and you notice that immediately in the atmosphere. On the neighbourhood page of Tilligte, residents give the village an 8.4 out of 10, a remarkably high score for a small settlement. Koen Morsink describes it as "close-knit and Catholic," adding: "Everyone knows each other and the neighbourhood is open to anything that happens." Another reviewer confirms: "A super nice and close-knit neighbourhood. Very pleasant and alert." Those are not empty words for a village of this size.

The sub-scores underline that picture. Safety scores an impressive 9.5, and accessibility, green space and housing also score above 9. Tilligte is located in the rural area of Dinkelland, surrounded by landscape, and that is precisely the attraction for many residents. Those accustomed to urban amenities around the corner must take into account the distance to larger settlements. Amenities and education both score 7.5, which is fair for a village of this size: basic necessities are available at some distance, but you are dependent on a car or bicycle. The beauty of the surroundings scores 7.5, which is on the low side for a Twente rural village, but the reviewers more than compensate with their enthusiasm about the community.

The population structure shows that Tilligte is a mature village. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, and families with children are the most common household type. Almost half of the residents are married. This gives Tilligte a quiet, stable character. The centre of Tilligte and the scattered houses around Tilligte each have their own character: the centre is more compact and social, the scattered buildings offer more space and privacy.
