Was €485,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €485,000 was above the neighbourhood average of €456,277 and the median of €407,500. However, apartments in Bezuidenhout-Oost vary widely, from €165,000 to over €1 million. Given the 73 m² floor area and C energy label, the price per m² worked out to about €6,644, which was higher than the neighbourhood average of €5,630 per m². So it's on the high side, but not out of line for a well-maintained property in this location.
