Who am I?

M. Bengu Durmusoglu

Founder & Real Estate Consultant
Kortenberg, Belgium +32 484 63 51 70

I founded EstaVera to help people make smart, confident investment decisions in Belgian real estate — turning uncertainty into a clear, personalised strategy.

As an independent real estate consultant and buyer's agent, I only ever represent you — never the seller. After more than two decades leading strategy in multinational companies and several years investing in property myself, I bring both analytical rigour and real-world, hands-on experience to every client relationship.

Frequently asked questions

Is the first consultation really free?

Yes. Your first 30-minute discovery call is completely free, with no commitment and no pressure — it's simply a conversation about your goals.

Who does EstaVera help?

High-earning professionals, newcomers to Belgium, and international investors — anyone who wants clear, independent guidance in the Belgian property market.

Does EstaVera sell property?

No. EstaVera is an independent consultancy. We give honest advice and can search on your behalf, but we don't sell property ourselves.

What is a buyer's agent, and is EstaVera one?

A buyer's agent represents only the buyer's interests, unlike a traditional estate agent who is typically engaged by the seller. EstaVera works exclusively for you throughout the search, analysis and offer process.

Can foreigners and expats buy property in Belgium?

Yes. Foreigners, whether EU citizens or not, have the same property rights as Belgians — there is no restriction based on nationality or residency. EstaVera helps expats navigate the local process with confidence.

How much does a real estate consultant cost in Belgium?

Fees depend on the service and scope, and are always explained clearly before any commitment. The first 30-minute discovery call is free, and full pricing is discussed transparently during that call.

Which areas do you cover?

Kortenberg, Leuven and the wider Brussels region including Ixelles, Etterbeek and the Woluwe communes, combining deep local knowledge with an international perspective.

Can you help first-time buyers?

Absolutely. We guide newcomers and first-time buyers through the local market and the steps to buying their first home in Belgium.

Do you only work with first-time buyers, or investors too?

Both. EstaVera advises first-time buyers purchasing a home and experienced investors building a rental property portfolio, with strategy tailored to each.

Turning real estate complexity into clarity, one client at a time.
