About Hoofdweg 59-1, Amsterdam
The asking price is 24% below the average asking price in the neighbourhood (€626,531) and also below the median of €512,500. Given that the apartment is smaller than the neighbourhood average (48 m² vs 71 m²), the price per m² works out at about €9,896, which is slightly above the neighbourhood average of €8,857 per m². So it's priced keenly overall, but you're paying a bit of a premium for the smaller size.
Homes in Postjeskade e.o. sell on average within 21 days, which is quite fast. This suggests a lively market where well-priced properties don't stay available for long.
