About Bos en Vaartlaan 98, Amstelveen
The asking price of €375,000 is 48% below the average asking price in Randwijck Oost (€723,954). However, this apartment is also smaller than the neighbourhood average (56 m² vs 104 m²). The price per square metre works out at about €6,696, which is in line with the neighbourhood average of €6,815 per m². So the price is competitive given the size.
The energy label is C, which is average for a home of this age (built in 1965). In the neighbourhood, about 28% of homes have label C, while 39% have a lower label (D or worse). A C label means the home is reasonably efficient, but you can expect moderate energy bills.

The floor area is 56 m², which typically accommodates a one- or two-bedroom layout, but you would need to check the floor plan with the agent.
