Frequently asked questions
About Chico Mendesstraat 27B, Amsterdam
How does the asking price compare to the WOZ value?
The WOZ value for this apartment was set at €313,000 on 1 January 2025. The asking price of €320,000 is 2% above that WOZ value. The WOZ is the municipal valuation used for tax purposes, not the current market value, so the comparison is a factual reference point rather than a judgement on the price.
What is the energy label and what does it mean for costs?
The apartment has an energy label A+, which is an efficient label. This means the home is likely to have relatively low energy costs compared to less efficient labels.

What is the roof terrace and who maintains it?
The apartment includes a roof terrace of 90 m² that belongs to the homeowners' association. The association charges a monthly contribution for its upkeep.
