Letting a property to expats in Amsterdam

If you own a property in Amsterdam and want to let it, it may be interesting to let it to expats. Expats are people who are temporarily staying in the Netherlands for work, study or other reasons. They often have an income that is above-average and are looking for a comfortable home in a good neighbourhood. Here are some of the advantages of letting out a property to expats in Amsterdam:

Financial capacity

Expats often have a higher income. This can make letting to expats financially attractive.

Reliable tenants

Expats are often reliable tenants. They have a steady income and are known to be tidy tenants. This can save you a lot of worry as a landlord / property owner.

Shorter rental periods

Expats often only stay in the Netherlands for a limited period of time, for example for a project or to study. As a result, they are looking for temporary rental properties for a period of just a few years. This can be beneficial for landlords because they can re-let the property or move back in themselves at the end of the rental period.

Good state of maintenance

Expats are often willing to pay for a property that is in good condition. This means that, as a landlord, you can pay extra attention to the maintenance condition of the property and charge an appropriate rent.
