Why now is the perfect time to sell your former rental home in Amsterdam

Do you own a former rental property in Amsterdam? If so, June 2025 is the perfect time to sell. Thanks to changes in legislation, ongoing price increases, and Amsterdam At Home’s smart marketing strategies, you can now get the maximum return on your property.

Changes in regulations create new sales opportunities

Since 2024, the rules governing the sale of public housing have been relaxed. Whereas legal barriers and restrictions previously made sales difficult, the process is now more transparent and accessible, particularly for private landlords and housing authorities.

These legislative changes make it possible to offer former rental properties on the open market. And that creates new opportunities in Amsterdam’s housing market.

As a seller, you’ll benefit from:

• Fewer legal restrictions
• Faster sales process
• Greater interest from affluent target groups

House prices in Amsterdam are rising faster than ever

The housing market in Amsterdam remains overheated. The average sales price within the ring road is currently around €725,000, with an average price per square meter of €9,000. More than 80% of homes are sold above the asking price, especially when it comes to well-maintained, move-in-ready apartments.

Demand is exceptionally high, especially in neighborhoods like De Pijp, Oud-West, and Amsterdam-Oost. Homes with charm and a good location sell in a flash, often after just one round of viewings.

Our proven sales strategy: targeting expats and international buyers

Amsterdam at Home combines local expertise with an international perspective. We focus specifically on expats: a rapidly growing group of buyers looking for homes that are available immediately in popular neighborhoods.

How we sell your home:

• English-language ads and landing pages
• Listing on international real estate portals
• Email campaigns targeting expat networks
• Social media ads on Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn
• Advanced targeting based on income, location, language, and search behavior

With this data-driven approach, we reach exactly the buyers who are a good fit for your home, both nationally and internationally.

Make your home stand out with our smart staging

In addition to smart marketing, we create a presentation that makes a lasting impression. This includes professional photography, compelling English-language descriptions, and a digital magazine that showcases your home to its best advantage. This approach maximizes your home’s selling potential, often within just a few days of going live.
