Monthly Rental Market Reports for the Netherlands and Its Biggest Cities
Each report looks back at one closed calendar month of new rental listings, either for the whole Netherlands or for a single city. Find the month and city you need, then read what new rentals asked, how the big cities compare, what a budget got in terms of space, and how asking rents moved against the month before, measured like for like. Every figure describes advertised asking rents in the listings Luntero represents, not signed rents.
The newest closed month in three views, each linking to its full report. The national block shows the median asking rent across the Netherlands, how asking rents spread and the like-for-like change against the month before. The big-city block sets the median asking rent of Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht and Eindhoven against the national median. The ranking block shows both ends of the city ranking, from the lowest to the highest median rent. Start here for the latest figures on the Dutch rental market.
Netherlands, median asking rent
New listings of the month, with the like-for-like change and how rents spread.
One tile for every city with monthly reports, currently Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht and Eindhoven. Each tile shows the city's latest median asking rent with its like-for-like change against the month before, links to that month's rent prices and rent value reports, and lists every earlier month, so a city's full archive is one tap away. Use it to look up what rentals in a city typically asked in a given month, or to follow how asking rents in one city developed over time.
Find any Luntero monthly rent report by city, month or report type, or search by name, for example a city and a month. Every report covers the new rental listings first stored in one closed calendar month and stays as it was published, so you can open an older month to see what rents were asked then and compare it with the latest one. Each report page has its charts, tables, key takeaways and answers to common questions, and can be downloaded as a PDF for your own records or research.

Four ways to read a month
Every month is read in four ways from the same new rental listings. The national prices report covers the whole Netherlands: median asking rent, rent per m², price bands, property mix and the big cities side by side. The city ranking puts every Dutch city with enough new listings in order of median rent. The city prices and city value reports go deeper into Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht and Eindhoven, from neighborhoods and price bands to rent per m², home sizes and what a monthly budget bought.

Every report is built with the same method, so months and cities can be compared fairly. A report covers all new rental listings first stored on Luntero in one closed calendar month, Dutch time, rental listings only and with parking spaces left out. All figures are medians of asking rents, which a few extreme listings cannot pull the way they pull an average, and a figure is only shown when enough listings back it, at least 30 for a rent level. The middle half runs from the 25th to the 75th percentile, and month-on-month change is measured like for like.
One closed month
Each report covers the listings first stored in a closed calendar month, measured once and then kept as published.
Asking rents
Figures describe rents advertised in listings, not signed rents or official statistics.
Change like for like
Month-on-month change compares only listing sources present in both months, and is left out when too little can be compared.

Answers to the questions people ask most about the Luntero monthly rent reports: when a report is created, whether it shows signed rents, why a month-on-month change is sometimes missing and which cities it covers. In short, every report covers the new rental listings first stored on Luntero in one closed calendar month, uses medians of asking rents, which a few extreme listings cannot pull the way they pull an average, and only shows a figure when enough listings back it. Read them before you compare months or cities.
When is a monthly report created?
A report is created for a calendar month once that month has closed, from the listings first stored during it. Its figures are then kept as computed.
Do the reports show signed rents?
No. They describe the rents asked in the listings Luntero represents. Signed rents, official statistics and the whole housing stock can differ.
Why does a report sometimes show no change against the previous month?
Change is only shown when enough listings from the same sources exist in both months. If too little can be compared, the report leaves the change out instead of presenting a misleading figure.
Which cities do the reports cover?
City reports exist for cities with enough listings, and national reports cover the whole Netherlands. Use the city filter to see which cities have reports.
