Frequently asked questions
About Boksdoornerf 561, Tilburg
Is €667 a fair price for this room?
The rent of €667 is below the neighbourhood average of €2,183, but that average covers all rental homes, not just rooms. The average room in Tilburg rents for around €540, so this room is priced above that. Given the 34 m² floor area, the price per square metre works out higher than the neighbourhood average of €16.80 per m².
What is the energy label and what does it mean?
The energy label is C. This is an official registration, recorded in the national energy label register. It gives an indication of the energy efficiency of the home, but it does not say anything about the condition of the building itself. A label C is in the middle of the scale, so energy costs are likely to be moderate.
How far is the train station?
The train station is 1.6 km away from this room. That is a reasonable distance, roughly a 20-minute walk or a short cycle. The exact route and time will depend on where you are coming from, but it is within easy reach for anyone who needs to travel by train.
