About Zwaluwstraat 62, Maassluis
The asking price of €300,000 is 56% below the average asking price in Vogelbuurt (€686,800), but the apartment is also 36% smaller than the neighbourhood average. Given the energy label F and the 1971 construction, the price is in line with the lower end of the market, the cheapest home currently for sale in the area is €295,000.
The energy label is F, which means the home is not very energy-efficient. You can expect higher heating costs compared to a home with a better label. In Vogelbuurt, about a third of homes have label B, a third label C, and a third label D or lower, so this apartment falls into the least efficient category.
