1. What is the average price per square metre in Amsterdam?
For each of the 22 listings, we divided the asking price by the size in m². The median is the middle value of those 22 prices per m². Half of the listings ask more, half ask less.
This figure comes from the listings on this site. It does not come from another portal, and it does not come from transfer deeds.
Read this figure with caution, for two reasons.
First, the sample is small: 22 listings. One listing more or fewer can already move the median. This figure therefore describes only these 22 listings on this site, on 2 November 2026. It does not describe the whole Amsterdam housing market, and it is not a price for one specific home.
Second, it is an asking price, not a sale price. An asking price is the price the seller asks. A sale price is the price actually paid and registered.
Statistics Netherlands (CBS) and the Kadaster together publish a price index for existing owner-occupied homes, based on registered deeds. That index measures change, not a price level per m². It is therefore a different kind of measure from the median of asking prices here. The two measures complement each other. Neither replaces the other.
This site does not verify whether listings are genuine, whether photos are accurate, who the seller is, or whether a price or availability is still current. A listing can expire, sell, or change after publication. Compare several recent listings, and check the home before making a decision.
2. Districts, by listing count
In this version we publish no district breakdown for Amsterdam, because we have not verified that breakdown against the listings on this site.
A city-wide median does not describe a district.
3. Direction over time
Not enough history yet to show a direction.
We publish no trend for Amsterdam in this report, because we do not have, for this report, a stable monthly series of this site's medians that can say whether the median is rising, falling, or stable. Claiming a trend from a single point, 2 November 2026, would be a guess.
With a monthly series, this section will give the median per month, with the listing count per month.
4. What should a buyer check before buying in Amsterdam?
These points are general checks. They do not replace advice from a notary or a buyer's agent, and they do not guarantee that a specific home is free of problems.
No figure in this report should be read as a promise of return, price growth, or ease of resale. This report describes asking prices, on a given date, in a given small base. It does not predict future prices.
- **The purchase agreement must be in writing.** For a consumer buying a home to live in, the sale must, under Article 7:2 of Book 7 of the Dutch Civil Code, be concluded in writing. A verbal agreement alone does not oblige the buyer.
- **The reflection period.** After the buyer has received the purchase agreement signed by both parties, or a copy of it, the buyer has, under that same article, three days to dissolve the purchase without giving reasons.
- **A buyer's agent is a choice, not a duty.** A buyer can hire an aankoopmakelaar for advice on viewings, bids, and the contract. Read who represents which party before you sign.
- **The notary and the Kadaster.** Ownership only passes with the leveringsakte (deed of transfer) at the notary, and the notary registers that deed with the Kadaster. Ask the notary about charges on the home.
- **Deposit or bank guarantee, capped at 10%.** The law allows a consumer buyer to be required to deposit at most 10% of the purchase price with the notary, or to give equivalent security, such as a bank guarantee. That is a cap, not a fixed amount. What your contract says counts.
- **Conditions in the contract.** A purchase agreement can contain conditions, for example on financing or a building inspection. Read each condition, including the date it expires, before you sign.
- **Costs and taxes.** We give no amounts, rates, or timelines here for transfer tax, notary costs, valuation, or other costs, because these depend on the home, the situation, and the rules in force at the time of transfer.
