RESOURCE:
HELP FINDING HOUSING IN THE NETHERLANDS
There is currently a housing shortage in the Netherlands, making it competitive to secure a rental. We highly recommend using a local Makelaar (Dutch for Realtor) who can:
Help you navigate the Dutch housing market
Send you real estate listings that fit your criteria
Reach out to properties on your behalf
Attend showings, with an option to video call with you
Submit offers and negotiate contracts
And more
For their services, Makelaars charge the equivalent of one month’s rent.
Would you like to be connected to a trusted Makelaar?
Due to a high level of interest, we can only connect you to one of our trusted Makelaars if you meet the following requirements:
Planning to move to the Netherlands within the next 3 months
A rental budget of €2,000+ per month—especially if relocating with kids/pets
A net monthly income of at least 3X rent (required by many landlords); this can come from a salary or established business you can run while livihg in the Netherlands
If you meet all 3 requirements, fill out the form below and we will introduce you via email.
Note: Expats can also purchase a home in the Netherlands for cash; if you plan to do this, fill out the form below and we will connect you.
