The rental market in Seraing in 2026
Seraing is the 3rd-largest municipality in the Liege metropolitan area with 64,000 inhabitants. The former steel capital (Arcelor) is undergoing a major urban redevelopment: the Ougree site is being transformed into a mixed-use neighbourhood with new-build housing.
The average rent of 540 EUR/month and a price per m2 of 1,200 EUR make it one of the most affordable large cities in Wallonia. The gross yield of 7.0% is among the highest, but the median EPC of F requires particular vigilance.
Local specifics
- Arcelor redevelopment: Ougree site undergoing transformation, capital appreciation potential over 5-10 years
- Median EPC F: lowest in the Liege metro area, 60% of properties rated E-F-G
- Rental rate 50%: active rental market, high turnover
- Boncelles: hillside residential area, significantly higher prices and profile than the rest of the municipality
Tips for renting in Seraing
Two possible strategies: short-term yield with older properties in the centre (high turnover, intensive management) or medium-term capital appreciation by buying near the redeveloped Ougree site. In all cases, budgeting for EPC renovation (upgrading from F to D: 20,000-30,000 EUR) is essential to secure indexation rights and property value.
