About Jacques Veltmanstraat 40-3, Amsterdam
The asking price of €340,000 is 33% below the neighbourhood average of €509,286. However, the flat is also 44% smaller than the average (45 m² vs 81 m²) and has an F energy label, which means higher energy costs. Given these factors, the price is in line with what you'd expect for a compact, older apartment needing some work.
The energy label is F, which is poor. This means the home is not well insulated and heating costs will be high. In the neighbourhood, 46.7% of homes have a label D or lower, so this is not unusual for the area, but you should budget for significant energy bills.
At 45 m², this flat is 44% smaller than the neighbourhood average of 81 m². It's a compact one-bedroom or studio-sized apartment, typical of older buildings in this part of Amsterdam.
