Frequently asked questions
About Aquamarijnstraat 51, Groningen
Is €220,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €220,000 is 28% below the average asking price in Vinkhuizen-Noord (€307,421) and also below the median of €307,500. However, this apartment is smaller than average (83 m² vs 112 m²) and has an E energy label, which means higher energy costs. Given the lower price per m² (€2,651 vs the neighbourhood average of €2,808), it's priced keenly for its size and condition.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is E, which is below average for the neighbourhood. In Vinkhuizen-Noord, 26.3% of homes have label A+ and only 36.8% have label D or lower. An E label means the home is not very energy-efficient, so you can expect higher heating and electricity bills. It's worth factoring that into your monthly budget.
How is the neighbourhood for safety?
Residents have mixed views. One review mentions "lots of crime" and "dangerous roundabouts," while another says the area "generally has an undeserved bad reputation" and feels safe. The total number of crimes recorded in the neighbourhood is 191, which is relatively high for a population of 6,000.
