About Willem de Zwijgerlaan 28-3, Amsterdam
The asking price is €525,000, which is above the neighbourhood median of €495,000. However, the apartment is 65 m², while the average for sale in the area is 50 m². So you are getting more space. The energy label F is a downside, as most other listings have a better label. Whether it is fair depends on how much you value the extra square metres.
The energy label is F, which is poor. In the Geuzenhofbuurt, all current listings have label C or better, so this apartment will have higher energy costs. You should expect significant heating bills, especially in winter. The building dates from 1940, so insulation is likely minimal.
At 65 m², this apartment is 30% larger than the neighbourhood average of 50 m² for homes for sale. That is a notable difference and one of the main selling points. Most apartments in the area are smaller, so you get more living space for your money.
