About Jacques Veltmanstraat 62-2, Amsterdam
The asking price of €395,000 is 22% below the average asking price in the Jacques Veltmanbuurt, which is €509,286. However, the apartment is also smaller than average at 45 m² versus 81 m². The price per square metre works out to about €8,778, which is above the neighbourhood average of €6,678 per m². So while the total price is low, you are paying a premium for the compact size.
The apartment has energy label C. This is a reasonable rating for a home built in 1956. In the neighbourhood, about 40% of homes have label A, while 6.7% have label C and 46.7% have label D or lower. Label C means the home is moderately energy-efficient, so heating costs will be noticeable but not extreme.
