There is a housing shortage in the Netherlands, making it competitive to secure a rental. We highly recommend using a local Makelaar (Realtor) who can help you navigate the Dutch housing market, reach out to properties on your behalf, attend showings, negotiate contracts, and more. For their services, they charge the equivalent of one month's rent.

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 to be introduced to one of our trusted Makelaars 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.
