It is not too difficult to find accommodation in Belgium.
Renting or Buying a House
Orange and black for rent or for sale posters are placed in the
windows of available properties. Most Belgian daily and regional newspapers
advertise accommodation for rent and for sale. Estate agents can also help you
in your search for accommodation.
At the end of 2008, the reference price for a family home was 215,000 in
Flanders, 176,500 in Wallonia and 380,000 in Brussels.
Temporary Accommodation
Hotels are quite expensive. Cheaper options are youth hostels, rooms in
private houses and B&Bs (ask the tourist board).
University towns offer rooms in halls of residence during the summer.
Adverts for accommodation to let are published in local newspapers.
Information centres such as the services kots (kot = students room) of
the InforJeunes (up to 25 years of age) offer a very useful information
service.
