With more than 120,000 students a year, Brussels is Belgium’s largest student city.
In recent years, Brussels has grown into the largest student city in Belgium. More than 120,000 students study there, spread over 51 universities and graduate schools. As a result, there has been a huge shortage of quality student housing in the past few years, resulting in rising rents. A unique opportunity to invest.


Shortage of quality student rooms has never been more significant.
The Brussels student population is mainly concentrated in the city centre, where 21% of students live in rooms. The total number of traditional student rooms in Brussels is estimated at around 15,000 to 20,000, while the current shortage is estimated at 10,000 units. The growth in the number of students continues to increase exponentially. There are expected to be an additional 50,000 students in Brussels by 2030, bringing the current shortfall of some 10,000 rooms to as many as 20,000-55,000 units by 2030.
All rooms at The Residance are energy efficient and are finished to a high standard. Each room is equipped with a private bathroom.

Brussels is not only the largest but also the most expensive student city in the country, according to the latest study of Kotkompas (2022).
For a standard room without sanitary facilities, the average rent (excluding costs) in Brussels is 435 euros, compared to 350 euros in Flanders and 360 euros in Wallonia. For a room with sanitary facilities, the average rent climbs to 455 euros in Flanders and to (only) 365 euros in Wallonia. In Brussels, you pay 580 euros rent on average for a room with sanitary facilities. For new construction projects such as The Residance, the average rent is obviously a lot higher.
