How to estimate a house price in Vielsalm
Everything starts from the median price of Vielsalm for this type of property, shown above. Four things then push it up or down.
- Surface and number of bedrooms: a house larger than the municipality's average is worth more, and the reverse.
- Condition: a property to renovate sells well below the median, a recently renovated one above.
- The EPC rating: a poor letter weighs on the bills and on the negotiation.
- The street, the light, the view, recent works: none of that appears in any statistic. Only a visit sees it.
This calculation gives a range, not a price. For the real price, an agency comes to you for free: that is the form just above.

This figure counts the offences recorded on the municipality's territory, divided by the number of residents. Towns that receive commuters, shoppers and visitors every day come out higher, because offences against them are counted although they do not live there. It is therefore not a measure of the risk to a resident, which is why we do not give a safety score.
