Apartments for sale in Oirschot
Apartments for sale in Oirschot are scarce: supply is limited and demand is high. Here's what you need to know before you start searching.
Flats in a village that hardly builds any flats
Oirschot has traditionally been a municipality of detached houses, semi-detached houses and terraced houses. Flats are the exception here, not the rule. This makes supply limited and competition for a new property immediately high. Anyone seriously considering buying a flat in Oirschot would do well to understand how this market works before going on a viewing.
The supply mainly consists of small-scale complexes, often built in the 1980s and 1990s, supplemented by occasional new-build projects. Large apartment complexes like those found in cities are hardly present. This gives a quiet living character, but also means you need patience when searching. Current numbers and prices can be found in the overview of all homes for sale in Oirschot.
What determines the price level
Flats in Oirschot are in the higher segment compared to similar village centres in the region. This is due to the location (favourable relative to Eindhoven and the motorways), the low building density and limited new construction. A smaller supply with constant demand pushes the price up.
Factors influencing the price of a specific flat:
- Floor and view (ground floor is avoided by some buyers but is more accessible for the elderly)
- Presence of a garage or parking space (scarce in the centre of Oirschot)
- Condition of the HOA (Homeowners' Association) and the amount of the monthly contribution
- Year of construction and insulation value (energy label counts in the mortgage calculation)
- Surface area: banks look strictly at flats under 40 m², which can complicate financing

Which neighbourhoods qualify
Oirschot consists of several centres. Not every centre has flat supply, but the resident rating gives a good picture of the living environment. Below are the neighbourhoods with their scores:
- Middelbeers en Westelbeers scores 8.9/10 with residents. Rural, quiet, small-scale. Flat supply here is rare, but whoever finds something lives in an environment that residents highly value.

Practical tips for those looking for a flat in Oirschot
- Thoroughly check the HOA administration. Request the multi-year maintenance plan (MJOP) and check whether the reserve fund is sufficient. A poorly funded fund may mean additional contributions after purchase.
- Pay attention to the deed of division and house rules. These state what you can and cannot do: renting, renovations, pets. This varies greatly per complex.
- Parking is a point of attention in the centre. Not every flat has a fixed parking space. Ask about this explicitly, also for visitors.
- Respond quickly. The supply of flats in Oirschot is limited. Properties rarely stay online for long. Set up your search and enable notifications.
- Use the free Buurtje.nl app to receive a push notification immediately when a new flat comes online. The app is free to download via the App Store and Google Play.
- Have a structural survey carried out. Older complexes sometimes have deferred maintenance that is not visible during a viewing.
- Ask about ground lease. In some complexes in smaller municipalities, the land is still on ground lease. This has consequences for financing and resale value.
Nothing found? Eindhoven is just around the corner

Frequently asked questions
What determines the price of an apartment in Oirschot?
Oirschot has a limited supply of apartments, which keeps prices in the higher segment. Factors influencing the price include the presence of a parking space, the energy label, the state of the Homeowners' Association (VvE), and the floor level. Current prices can be found in the overview at the top of this page.
How can I quickly find a new apartment in Oirschot?
The supply in Oirschot is small and properties disappear quickly. Download the free Buurtje.nl app from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android) and set up a search query. You will then receive an instant free push notification as soon as a new apartment becomes available.
What legal aspects should I consider when buying an apartment?
Always request the deed of division, the house rules, and the multi-year maintenance plan (MJOP). Check whether the reserve fund of the Homeowners' Association (VvE) is sufficiently funded. Also pay attention to any ground lease on the land and restrictions regarding rental or renovations. A notary or purchasing agent can assist with this.
Which neighbourhood in Oirschot is most suitable for an apartment?
The core of Oirschot (score 8.4/10) has the most apartment supply and is close to amenities. Middelbeers and Westelbeers (8.9/10) and Spoordonk (8.8/10) score higher among residents but have hardly any apartment supply. Oostelbeers (7.9/10) is a quieter option a bit further from the core.
Is there sufficient parking at apartments in Oirschot?
Parking is a point of attention, especially in and around the historic core of Oirschot. Not every apartment has a designated parking space at the complex. Ask about this explicitly during the viewing, also for visitors. A private garage box or carport significantly increases the value of the apartment.
The surroundings are beautiful, especially if you enjoy walking and cycling. The community always looks out for each other and it's incredibly safe. I've lived here for almost a year and haven't had a single complaint. Getting here by public transport is a bit tricky, but possible.

Auto-translated to English by AIThe houses are just good, nice houses. The village itself is a bit remote and the bus doesn't run on weekends. Also, there's not much to do. For example, there's only one bar. Safety is top-notch. As far as I know, there's hardly any burglaries and there's an app group in almost every street or neighbourhood. It's also nice and clean.
Auto-translated to English by AII've been living here with my boyfriend for a few months now and we immediately felt at home. Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Very clean environment, just a bit difficult to reach by public transport if you're not familiar with the area.

Auto-translated to English by AII've lived here my whole life. When I was a child, our neighbourhood still had lots of activities, but unfortunately nothing anymore now. At first, all the neighbours knew each other and I was friends with many children from the neighbourhood, but now almost no one knows each other anymore and people hardly talk to each other.
