Where will you live?
Every home in the Netherlands, one central place.
Every home in the Netherlands, one central place.
Every second we scan thousands of sources, from the major platforms to the agent around the corner. The moment a home appears online anywhere, it's on Buurtje. For sale and for rent, in one realtime overview.
Reviews from real residents, neighbourhood scores across eight categories and hard CBS statistics. Plus the WOZ value, price per m², distance to supermarkets, schools and public transport, and even risks like noise, foundation issues and flooding. So you're never in for surprises.
AI writes a personal response in your tone based on the home and instantly looks up the agent's contact details, including their phone number. Your mail app opens with everything filled in: you tap send, or call right away. That way you're first, not last.
Finding a home in the Netherlands feels like a battle: too little supply, hundreds of responses per home, and whoever is late misses out. That is why we built Buurtje.nl. Notifications of new homes are free, we show multiple sources per home and responding via the provider costs nothing.
Only Quicklane is paid: it lets you respond faster thanks to AI. That covers the costs of the platform, keeps us independent and keeps all essential functionality accessible to everyone.
We believe all information about a home should be out in the open. The full supply, reviews from real residents and CBS statistics on safety and liveability: everyone can view it for free. So you decide based on facts, not pretty pictures.
At other platforms you quickly pay 30 euros per month just for notifications. Not with us. Those who want more convenience can become a member, but nobody ever has to pay to participate.
Buurtje.nl is the free housing search engine of the Netherlands with neighbourhood reviews from real residents. Every second we collect the complete housing supply from thousands of sources, from big platforms to the smallest local estate agent, and combine it with neighbourhood scores and CBS data. That way you are not just looking for a house, but consciously choosing a neighbourhood too.
Yes. The complete housing supply, all neighbourhood reviews, neighbourhood scores and CBS data are free to view for everyone, both on the website and in the app. In the app you can optionally take out a membership for extra features such as Quicklane™ and multiple saved searches, but that is entirely optional.
Very up to date. We literally scan all sources every second. As soon as a home appears online somewhere, it shows up on Buurtje.nl (almost) immediately. Status changes such as sold, under offer or rented are also tracked automatically.
Yes, but they are off by default. Social housing and rooms in shared homes can be enabled per saved search or on the map via the “Additional sources” filter. Note: housing associations often have requirements such as income, age or registration time.
Neighbourhood reviews are ratings from real residents about their own neighbourhood. They give scores in eight categories (safety, community, cleanliness, housing, education, nature, amenities and accessibility) and write a free text. Every review is automatically checked against our guidelines by AI. Write a review yourself and help other home seekers.
Yes, for iOS and Android. With it you create saved searches, receive push notifications for new matches and use Quicklane™ to respond to a home in seconds. Download via the App Store or Google Play.
Quicklane™ is a feature in the app that lets you respond to a home in seconds. Based on the listing details, the AI writes a personal response letter. You set the tone (formal or informal), length and extra information yourself. Your mail app opens with everything filled in; all you have to do is tap send.
They are probably already there. We aggregate automatically from thousands of sources, so as soon as your listing is on your own website or a major platform, we will find it. Still missing something? Send an email to info@buurtje.nl.
