  • In good hands from the first moment"
    I am extremely satisfied with the sale of my apartment by Koops Makelaardij. From the first moment I felt in good hands. They have excellent knowledge of the Amsterdam housing market and gave me good advice on the best sales strategy. What I especially liked were the short lines by phone, whatsapp or email. Because of these short lines, the sales process was very smooth and transparent. In addition, I was very impressed with the professional presentation of my apartment. The video, photos and sales text were of high quality and gave a good picture of the property. This certainly also contributed to the quick sale. In short, I can highly recommend Koops Makelaardij to anyone who wants to sell his or her home.

Frequently asked questions about renting out a house in Amsterdam

  • Can I just rent out my property?

    In many cases you can rent out your property if you are the owner. Always check the deed of sale and consult your mortgage provider for any conditions. Your homeowner’s association may also have rules about rentals. We are happy to help you assess your options.

  • What should I arrange before I rent out my property?

    It is important to decide on the rental price, furnishings, type of rental contract and availability in advance. We advise you on all of this during the first meeting and ensure legal accuracy.

  • Can I rent out my house temporarily?

    Yes temporary rental is possible using a diplomatic clause which suits situations where you are temporarily abroad. This is ideal if you plan to return later. We draft a watertight contract and make sure your property is returned without issues.

  • Is it interesting to rent to expats?

    Definitely. Expats often look for furnished homes in central locations. They tend to rent for one to three years and provide stable rental income. We have extensive experience with this target group.

  • Do I need a license to rent out my property?

    Only when renting rooms to more than two unrelated adults do you need a conversion permit in Amsterdam. For regular whole property rental this is usually not necessary. We will check what applies in your case.

  • What is a landlord statement?

    In some cases, municipalities require a landlord declaration. In Amsterdam, this is often tied to room rentals. We check what applies to your situation and help you with any necessary documentation.

  • What happens at the key handover?

    On the day of move-in, we carry out a detailed inspection, complete a delivery report and hand over the keys and important documents. This ensures a smooth start for the tenant and proper legal coverage for you.
