Frequently asked questions
About Schieweg 220C03, Rotterdam
Is €435,000 a fair price for this apartment?
The asking price of €435,000 is above the neighbourhood average of €393,873 and the median of €375,000. However, this apartment is larger than average (104 m² vs 85 m²), which partly explains the premium. The price per m² works out to about €4,183, which is below the neighbourhood average of €5,019 per m², so you are getting more space for your money.

The energy label is C, which is average for a pre-war apartment. In Bergpolder, about 41% of homes have label C, while 38% have a lower label. Label C means the home is reasonably efficient but not top-tier, so heating costs will be moderate.
