Frequently asked questions
About JAN VAN ZUTPHENSTRAAT 635, Amsterdam
Is €3,150 a fair rent for this apartment?
The rent of €3,150 is about 18% above the neighbourhood average of €2,662 for rentals. However, this apartment is also larger than the average, at 112 m² compared to the neighbourhood average of 83 m². So you are paying more, but getting considerably more space. Whether that balance works for you depends on how much you value the extra square metres.
How does the size of this apartment compare to others in the area?
At 112 m², this apartment is about 35% larger than the average rental in the Zuidwestkwadrant-Zuid neighbourhood, which comes in at 83 m². That is a significant difference and likely a key reason the rent is above the local average. If space is a priority, this home stands out in the area.
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is A, which is the most efficient label on the scale. This means the home is officially registered as very energy-efficient, so you can expect relatively low energy costs compared to homes with less efficient labels. The label is an official registration and does not say anything specific about the condition of the building.
