Estate agent in Oud-Zuid
Oud-Zuid is the Museum Quarter, Willemspark and the Concertgebouw area: wide streets, townhouses and spacious apartments, largely built around 1900. The Vondelpark, the museums and the Van Baerlestraat are around the corner, and the Zuidas business district is close by.
Buyers in Oud-Zuid usually know exactly what they want and compare carefully. The floor, the outdoor space and the finish make the difference between two apartments in the same street, and with a whole townhouse it also matters what may be built at the back.
Four things that set the price in Oud-Zuid
Raised ground floor or top floor
A bel-etage with a garden and a top floor with a roof terrace attract different buyers and command different prices. How high and how light an apartment is weighs heavily here.
A south-facing garden
A deep back garden or a permitted roof terrace is scarce in Oud-Zuid. Whether the outdoor space belongs to the apartment or is shared is set out in the deed of division, and we check it.
Condition and finish
Buyers in this segment cost out a renovation precisely. A well-documented renovation does better than an apartment that still needs to be stripped.
Ground lease or freehold
Both ground lease (erfpacht) and freehold occur in Oud-Zuid. At these prices, a ground rent bought off in perpetuity saves a buyer a considerable sum, so we prepare those documents in advance.
About buying and selling in Oud-Zuid
What is my apartment in Oud-Zuid worth?
That depends more on the floor, the outdoor space and the condition than on the number of square metres. After our visit to your home we look up what comparable apartments in Oud-Zuid have recently fetched.
Can I merge a divided townhouse back into one home?
Sometimes. In Amsterdam that requires a permit and the city is reluctant to grant it. We find out what is possible for your building before you bid on it or set a price.
Are there many international buyers in Oud-Zuid?
Yes, partly because the Zuidas is so close. We present every home in Dutch and in English and hold viewings in both languages.
