Plan on roughly 30 to 60 minutes for the visit itself. The agent tours the property, measures the space, checks condition and the PEB, and notes what sets it apart. A refined written figure follows shortly after, once recent comparable sales have been analysed back at the office.
The on-site part is quicker than most owners expect but long enough to be thorough. For a standard house or apartment, an Easyhome agent typically spends 30 to 60 minutes on site: walking each room, measuring usable surface, judging condition and light, noting the layout, and reviewing the PEB certificate and any renovation work. Larger, atypical or mixed-use properties take longer, because there is simply more to assess.
The visit is only half the job. The number that matters comes from what happens afterwards, when the agent benchmarks your property against genuinely comparable recent sales in the area using the comparison method. That analysis is where a defensible asking price is built, so the written figure usually lands shortly after the visit rather than on the doorstep.
Doing it in person is what makes the figure trustworthy. An online estimate takes seconds and misses everything specific to your home; the counter-intuitive trade is that spending an hour now can protect tens of thousands of euros later. It matters more in a fast market: Walloon house prices rose 15.4% in 2025 to a median of 240,000 euros (source: Notaire.be / Fednot, February 2026), so an accurate, current reading beats a quick guess.
Having your documents ready keeps the visit efficient. With the PEB, cadastral extract and plans to hand, the agent spends the hour assessing rather than searching.
