What is “right of pre-emption”?

It is a right which allows a person to be preferred over other candidates for the purchase of real estate when it is put up for sale. The beneficiary will therefore be preferred even if he makes an equal offer to the other buyers.

Which interest rate is best for me?

What is fixed interest rate? In this formula, you benefit from an interest rate which will be identical for the entire duration of the execution of the loan / mortgage credit. This is a particularly interesting formula when rates are low and likely to increase over time. Currently interest rates are historically low and this is therefore the ideal formula. What is the semi-fixed interest rate? In this formula, you benefit from a fixed rate for a period of 10 years and then a rate review takes place. This formula is interesting when rates are likely to increase in the future. What is the graduated interest rate? In this formula, you repay more interest than capital. The monthly payments are linked to the index and increase by €30 to €40 every two years. This is a particularly interesting formula for young people whose professional salary is expected to increase over the course of their career.

I just got laid off. What are the consequences on my current credit?

In Belgium, we cannot postpone a payment deadline. If you have lost your job, you should contact us immediately. We can offer you a solution to settle your outstanding credit and offer you a new one. By doing so, we will already gain a deadline.
