In Wallonia, a large part of the agricultural land is exploited under farm leases. These tenants must therefore pay a “rent” to their lessor. The farm coefficients, which will increase in 2023, make it possible to adjust the amount of this rent.

In the Walloon Region, thousands of private and public owners of agricultural land are affected by the legislation on farm leases. The government has made available model contracts for them.

In 5 years, the purchase price of a hectare of agricultural land has increased by 28.4% in Wallonia. But who is driving up the price of farmland ?

Le prix des terrains agricoles ne cesse d’augmenter.
Découvrez l’intégralité de l’article du journal Le Soir du 08/10/2020 consacré à ce sujet.

Propriétaires forestiers ou futurs investisseurs (forestiers), découvrez l’article de la Libre du jeudi 7 mai.
Il est vrai que le secteur forestier connait une crise mais investir dans un bois, une forêt, un bout de nature, suscite toujours beaucoup d’engouements et d’intérêts.

Contrairement à ce que l’on pourrait croire, les fermes des siècles passés se vendent encore très bien. Plus leur terrain est grand, plus leur prix est élevé. Et peu importe si les travaux de rénovation à prévoir sont importants…

Voici un article du journal Le Soir du 24 mai 2018 comprenant une interview d’Yves Lange.

Le Gouvernement wallon a adopté ce 7 novembre 2017, l’avant-projet de Décret fiscal qui prévoit plusieurs mesures fiscales, dont les suivantes liées à l’immobilier :

• L’instauration d’un système d’abattement de 20.000 € sur la base imposable pour une première acquisition d’un bien qui deviendra la résidence principale du redevable. Cette mesure vise à soutenir les jeunes dans l’achat de leur premier logement et générera des droits d’enregistrement moins onéreux.
• La suppression de la majoration des droits d’enregistrement de 12,5% à 15% dès l’acquisition d’une 3ème habitation en propriété. Cette mesure vise à stimuler l’investissement immobilier sur le territoire wallon.
