Rental homes in Velp-Noord boven spoorlijn, Rheden

Rental prices and market figures Velp-Noord boven spoorlijn, Rheden

Of the more than 3,600 homes in Velp-Noord boven spoorlijn, 30% are rental properties. That sounds like a reasonable share, but in practice, the free-sector rental supply is limited: only 6% of the housing stock is owned by a housing association, while 24% is owned by other landlords. The social rental market here is therefore small, and the free sector dominates the rental landscape.

In the free sector (excluding social housing), an average rent of €1,699 per month was recorded over the past twelve months, based on 14 rented homes. The range runs from €625 to €2,450 per month, with an average living area of 180 m². That works out to about €9.44 per m² per month. This is considerably higher than what you pay on average in the broader district Velp or in the municipality of Rheden. The WOZ value of homes here is €501,000, well above the district average of €368,000 and the municipal average of €346,000. This is one of the more expensive neighbourhoods in Rheden.

Living in Velp-Noord boven spoorlijn, Rheden

Velp-Noord boven spoorlijn is a quiet, green neighbourhood on the slopes of the Veluwe, just north of the Arnhem-Zevenaar railway line. The housing stock mainly consists of spacious detached houses and semi-detached houses from the 1950s to the 1980s, with occasional newer additions. The homes generally have large plots, giving the neighbourhood a rural character despite its proximity to the centre of Velp. The average income is €47,700 per year, significantly higher than the municipal average of €35,700, underscoring the neighbourhood's established and affluent profile. The largest age group consists of those aged 65 and over (nearly 2,225 people), followed by the 45-65 age group.
