End-of-terrace houses for sale in Helmond

End-terrace houses in Helmond: what defines the supply

Helmond is not a city where end-terrace houses are waiting on every street corner. The housing market is balanced, but the supply of end-terrace houses is limited and competition is correspondingly high. Anyone looking to buy an end-terrace house in Helmond will notice that this type of house sells faster than a mid-terrace house on the same street. There is a reason for this: end-terrace houses offer side windows, a larger plot, and often more light, without having to take the step to a detached house.

The supply targets a broad audience: families looking for space, people wanting a home office or annex, and buyers who value outdoor space on multiple sides. End-terrace houses in Helmond generally fall into the upper middle segment. Current numbers and price trends can be found in the overview at the top of this page.

What to look for in an end-terrace house, specifically in this market

• Respond quickly, but not blindly. End-terrace houses attract more viewing requests than mid-terrace houses. Schedule your viewing as early as possible, but still take the time for a structural survey. Especially with older end-terrace houses in neighbourhoods like de Binnenstad or Helmond-Noord, this is not an unnecessary luxury.
• Pay attention to the boundary on the side. An end-terrace house has an additional plot boundary, often adjacent to a pavement or green strip. Check the cadastre to see if the boundary matches what you see. Sometimes a strip of land has been informally used by the previous owner.
• Ask about easements. End-terrace houses more often have rights of way or utility lines running across the plot. This is stated in the deed of transfer, but is not always actively disclosed.
• Check the rights for dormers and extensions. End-terrace houses sometimes have restrictions on side-wall extensions, depending on the zoning plan of the municipality of Helmond. Check this with the municipality before making plans.
• Parking on own land. Many end-terrace houses in Helmond have a driveway or the possibility to create one. Explicitly ask whether the driveway has been permitted and whether the access road has been registered with the municipality.
• Set up a search alert in the Buurtje.nl app. The app is free and sends you a push notification as soon as a new end-terrace house becomes available in Helmond. This way you won't miss anything. Download from the App Store or Google Play.
• Compare the WOZ value with the asking price. End-terrace houses are sometimes valued higher than comparable mid-terrace houses on the same street. Check whether the WOZ value is in line with the asking price, so you don't overpay relative to the tax value.

What an end-terrace house costs in Helmond

End-terrace houses in Helmond are in the upper middle segment. They are structurally more expensive than mid-terrace houses in the same neighbourhood, but cheaper than detached houses. The exact price range varies by neighbourhood, year of construction, and state of maintenance. See the current price level in the overview at the top of this page.

Factors that drive up the price: an extra-large side plot, a garage or carport on own land, a recently renovated kitchen or bathroom, and a favourable location in a neighbourhood with high resident satisfaction. Factors that lower the price: deferred maintenance on the exterior wall or roof (with end-terrace houses, the side wall is more exposed to weather influences), a narrow side strip without practical use, and a location on a busy road.

When granting mortgages, banks look at the house as a whole, not specifically at the type. However, if an end-terrace house is smaller than 40 m² of living space, financing becomes more difficult. This rarely plays a role for this type in Helmond, but it is good to know.

Also look in Tilburg if the supply disappoints

The housing market for end-terrace houses in Helmond is tight. If you are flexible on location, it is worth also looking at end-terrace houses in Tilburg.
