For whom is buying in De Berg-Noord realistic?
De Berg-Noord is primarily a neighbourhood for movers and buyers with a solid budget. With an average purchase price of over €885,000, this is not a starter neighbourhood. The largest age group is 45 to 65 years, and that reflects the buyer profile: dual-income earners, families with older children or people who deliberately choose peace and space. In addition to the purchase price, take into account additional costs such as transfer tax (2% for non-starters), notary fees and possible renovation costs. Supply is limited, so overbidding is realistic. Those who are not yet ready to buy can also look at rental properties in De Berg-Noord as an intermediate step.
