Frequently asked questions
About Amstelstraat 108, Eindhoven
Is €846 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent of €846 is well below the neighbourhood average of €1,875 for rentals, and it is also lower than the minimum of €1,425 seen in the area. This is a social housing listing, so the rent is set accordingly. Given the floor area of 86 m², the price per square metre works out far below the local average of €9.50 per m², making it a very affordable option in Kerkdorp Acht.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C, which is an official registration from EP-Online. It indicates a mid-range efficiency level, so you can expect moderate energy costs compared to the most efficient homes. The label does not say anything about the condition of the building itself, only about its energy performance. For a social rental at this price, it is a reasonable starting point.
How does the floor area compare to other rentals in the neighbourhood?
At 86 m², this apartment is 43% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 150 m² for rentals. That means the space is more compact than what is typical in Kerkdorp Acht, but it is still a comfortable size for a single person or a couple. The lower rent reflects this smaller footprint, so you are trading space for a significantly lower monthly cost.
