Letting your property in Amsterdam

If you own a property in Amsterdam and are considering letting it, there are a number of important things to take into account. Here are some tips to help you let a property in Amsterdam.

City’s requirements for letting your property

First of all, you must ensure that you meet the requirements of the municipality of Amsterdam for letting a property. In Amsterdam, there is a licensing system for letting properties. So first check whether you meet all the requirements. Interhouse is aware of the latest local legislation and can provide you with information about this.

Letting your property in Amsterdam for an indefinite or fixed period

Next, you need to decide how you want to let out your property. Do you want to let it out for an indefinite period or for a fixed term? In Amsterdam, there are strict rules for a letting shorter than six months. So consider carefully which option best suits your situation. Interhouse has the right model tenancy agreement for every type of letting.

Tenancy agreement

It is important to draw up a solid tenancy agreement. Not only is the model important, but the way in which the tenancy agreement is drawn up is also crucial. It should include agreements on the rent price, the payment terms and the duration of the rental period. It is also wise to draw up an inspection report at the start of the tenancy period and have it signed together with the tenancy agreement.

Rental price

Finally, it is important to determine the right rental price. You must comply with rental price legislation and you want to charge a fair price that is in line with the market but also covers your fixed costs. Don’t forget that you also need to take into account unforeseen costs for maintenance of the property and any taxes.
