Brussels

Brussels, the Belgian capital and seat of EU institutions, has a less strained and more accessible real estate market than Luxembourg City or Paris. Premium communes — Uccle, Ixelles (Châtelain, Flagey), Saint-Gilles — show prices of €6,000 to €12,000/sqm; the rest of the city ranges from €3,500 to €6,000/sqm. 19th-century townhouses (maisons de maître) are a particularly attractive segment. MAPA Property acts as international broker with Brussels-based partners.
