- Eileen, Thanks for the information it will be of great help. I have a couple of additional questions, like the cost of a nice 2 or 3 bedroom apartment or home and the cost of a new car as I will be leaving my vehicles behind. Can you lease cars in Belgium? Do most of the apartments and home's come with the full range of appliances like in the US? Are their any web sites you could recommend for shopping for cars, homes or appliances? Thanks again for all your help. Best Regards, Gary Dear Gary, There is a great variation on price of property, depending on area, size, state of renovation etc. , so it is difficult to give you an accurate range, but as a guideline, as 2 bed apartment would be between 1100 and 1900 Eur. You could have a look at www.immoweb.be which will give you a good idea of what is available in different price ranges. Regarding your cars - yes you can lease cars in Belgium, but you will need to be careful of the lease period, if you are unsure how long you will be here. It can be very expensive to break the lease. Regarding the electrical equipment provided, you will not usually find the complete range of appliances in an apartment. It depends whether you are looking for furnished or unfurnished. In an unfurnished you will usually get the cooker and fridge, although the fridge may be a lot smaller than what you are used to. A lot of the kitchens in apartments are quite small. In a furnished apartment you may also get a microwave and sometimes a washing machine/drier. But it really depends on the individual apartment. There is quite a good second hand market for appliances and cars (see Expatica web-site and also www.xpats.com). Hope this helps, Best Regards Eileen Money General Manager eileen.money@map-relocations.com www.map-relocations.com Asked by : Gary Answered by : Relocation Expert Eileen Money
