What is the average price of residential property in the Netherlands? In the third quarter of 2024, a single-family home cost approximately 434,000 euros. There were large differences between the Dutch provinces, however. Single-family homes were most expensive in the central province of Utrecht with an average price of 731,000 euros, whereas a similar house in Groningen had an average price tag of 384,000 euros. Overall, the average price a private individual would pay when buying any type of existing residential property (such as single-family homes but also, for example, an apartment) was approximately 416,000 euros in 2023. Do the Dutch prefer to buy or to rent a house? The Netherlands had a slightly higher homeownership rate (the share of owner-occupied dwellings of all homes) in 2023 than other countries in Northwestern Europe. About 70 percent of all Dutch houses were owned, whereas this percentage was lower in Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. This is an effect of past developments: the price to rent ratio (the development of the nominal purchase price of a house divided by the annual rent of a similar place with 2015 as a base year) shows that the gap between house prices and rents has continuously widened in recent years. Despite a slight decline in the ratio due to slowing house price growth and accelerating rental growth, in 2023, the cost of buying a home had grown significantly faster relative to the cost of renting. Mortgages in the Netherlands Additionally, the Netherlands has one of the highest mortgage debts among private individuals in Europe. In 2024, total debt exceeded 839 billion euros. This has a political background, as the Dutch tax system allowed homeowners for many years to deduct interest paid on mortgage from pre-tax income for a maximum period of thirty years, essentially allowing for income support for homeowners. In the Netherlands, this system is known as hypotheekrenteaftrek. Note that since 2014, the Dutch government is slowly scaling this down, with a planned acceleration from 2020 onwards.

This table shows the average purchase price that has been paid in the reporting period for existing own homes purchased by a private individual. The average purchase price of existing own homes may differ from the price index of existing own homes. The average purchase price is no indicator for price developments of owner-occupied residential property. The average purchase price reflects the average price of dwellings sold in a particular period. The fact that de dwellings sold differs from one period to another is not taken into account. The following instance explains which problems are entailed by the continually changing of the quality of the dwellings sold. Suppose in February of a particular year mainly big houses with extensive gardens beautifully situated alongside canals are sold, whereas in March many small terraced houses are sold. In that case the average purchase price in February will be higher than in March but this does not mean that house prices are increased. See note 3 for a link to the article 'Why the average purchase price is not an indicator'.

Status of the figures: The figures in this table are immediately definitive. The calculation of these figures is based on the number of notary transactions that are registered every month by the Dutch Land Registry Office (Kadaster). A revision of the figures is exceptional and occurs specifically if an error significantly exceeds the acceptable statistical margins. The average purchasing prices of existing owner-occupied sold homes can be calculated by Kadaster at a later date. These figures are usually the same as the publication on Statline, but in some periods they differ. Kadaster calculates the average purchasing prices based on the most recent data. These may have changed since the first publication. Statistics Netherlands uses figures from the first publication in accordance with the revision policy described above.

The average purchase price of existing own homes may differ from the price index of existing own homes. The change in the average purchase price, however, is not an indicator for price developments of existing own homes.

This dataset has been created for a personal project on house price predictions. As no dataset on house prices was available in the Netherlands, I decided to create one myself. The data consists of information retrieved from the largest real estate website in the Netherlands: Funda.

The data consists of basic descriptors such as the address and ask price, but also contains the number of rooms and bathrooms, the type of building and the year the building was constructed.

The Netherlands luxury residential real estate market, encompassing apartments, condominiums, villas, and landed houses across major cities like Amsterdam, Rotterdam, and The Hague, exhibits robust growth potential. With a current market size exceeding €1 billion (a reasonable estimation based on common luxury market proportions relative to overall housing markets and a 3%+ CAGR), the sector is projected to experience a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of over 3% from 2025 to 2033. This expansion is fueled by several key drivers: a thriving Dutch economy attracting high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), increasing demand for premium properties in prime locations, limited supply of luxury homes, and a preference for sustainable and high-quality construction. The segment is further invigorated by rising tourism and increasing international investment in Dutch real estate. While potential restraints such as government regulations and economic fluctuations exist, the overall market outlook remains positive, particularly in Amsterdam, which consistently attracts significant investor interest. Leading developers like BPD, Provast, and Heijmans play a crucial role in shaping the market, alongside international players like Christie's International Real Estate and Sotheby's International Realty.
