Yes. Easyhome is well placed for buyers linked to Luxembourg, including cross-border workers who earn in Luxembourg but want to live in nearby Wallonia. They buy under the same Walloon rules as any resident: the reduced 3% registration duty on an own and single home applies since 1 January 2025 (wallonie.be, 2025).

Southern Wallonia, around Arlon, Marche-en-Famenne and the wider province of Luxembourg (Belgium), is a natural catchment for people who work in the Grand Duchy. The economics are compelling: Luxembourg salaries combined with Walloon property prices, which are typically far lower than in Luxembourg City. Easyhome, whose head office is in Marche-en-Famenne, knows this profile intimately.

Legally, a cross-border worker or a Luxembourg national buys in Wallonia on the same footing as a Belgian. There is no nationality or residence barrier to owning Walloon property, and the tax is regional, not personal. Since 1 January 2025, an own and single home attracts a registration duty of just 3%, against the ordinary rate of 12.5% (wallonie.be, 2025). To qualify, the property must become your single home and main residence, with domicile registered within three years for an existing dwelling.

The subtlety for this group is financing and tax residence rather than the purchase itself. Someone taxed in Luxembourg still buys Walloon bricks under Belgian property law, but their income proof, their lender and their personal tax situation sit partly across the border. A counter-intuitive detail: living in Wallonia while working in Luxembourg can affect where certain benefits apply, so the property choice and the residence decision should be considered together.

Easyhome’s Marche-en-Famenne and Dinant offices, among the 7 across Wallonia, regularly guide buyers in this exact situation, coordinating viewings, the compromis de vente and the notarial deed, including remote signing by power of attorney where the client cannot attend.
