Sorry, my written French is not very good, I can understand advanced French, Spanish and English (if you write in Catalonian is also OK)
I am interested in acquiring some small properties in central Brussels. I acquired a small inheritance, and it is imposible to buy any flats in the UK or the main cities in Spain.
I would like to pose a few questions and contact any serious Real Estate Consultant from a reputable firm (with an significant presence in the Brussels Real Estate Market).
Would so be so kind as to offer your well informed advice about the following topics?
a) Do you expect the explosion of a speculative bubble?
b) Are there any possible capital gains (low rentals but hign increases in appartment values). In plain words .. Is there anybody expecting any rise in the value of central properties in Brussels.. considering such low apartment purchase values (even if profitability looks more than fine)?
My main concern is the low asset values and the high rentals-asset values ratio. This is rentals are low, but .. anyway they generate high yields for a low investment (the ratio in cities like Madrid and Barcelona is substantially lower). Even if rentals values went down the drain, the rental/asset value looks very promising
c) Are there any special taxes or rental regulations that make this market so ridiculously cheap, given the high income percapita in Belgium, the EU position in Brussels, the good distribution of income and the incredible quality of life of this city?
d) Arte there any extra costs, in comparison with other countries in the UK, such as the administration of taxes or condominium administration that makes it expensive to invest in Brussels?

En ce qui concerne la taxation immobilière, pour faire court, il existe :
