Renting to Expats in Amsterdam

At PCW Housing, we help property owners rent their homes to expats. Expats usually stay for one to three years, providing stable short- to mid-term tenancies. This is particularly beneficial under the new Dutch Fixed Rental Contracts Law, which mandates indefinite contracts unless specific exceptions apply.

Why Rent to Expats?

Financial stability: Expats usually work for multinational companies, offering landlords secure, consistent rental income. Their responsibility as tenants also reduces the risk of property damage.

Flexible lease terms: Expats often stay for a defined time, meaning properties become available again after a fixed period, even under the new laws favoring indefinite contracts.

Comprehensive Rental Support

We manage every aspect of the rental process, from professional marketing to tenant screening and drafting contracts. Our expertise ensures a smooth, hassle-free rental experience, compliant with the latest rental laws in the Netherlands.

If you own the property and there are no rental restrictions outlined in the deed of sale, you're all set to rent it out. Remember, if your property is mortgaged, you'll need to obtain permission from your lender before proceeding with renting. For those without a mortgage, there's no hindrance to renting out your property. However, if you're leasing an apartment within a complex, it's essential to inform the Owners' Association (VVE), as rental permissions may be governed by the association's bylaws and internal rules.

No cure, no pay & no upfront payments.

In the Netherlands, there are various types of rental contracts, with the three most common being:

 

Model A - Indefinite Term: This agreement has no fixed end date, offering stability as tenants can stay indefinitely, provided they meet their obligations. Tenants can terminate with one month's notice, and a minimum term, usually 12 months, can be requested.

 

Model B - Fixed Term: A contract for up to 24 months, which becomes an indefinite term agreement at the end unless terminated by the landlord with 1-3 months' notice before the end.

Exceptions where a temporary contract can still be offered include:

  1. Students who need to rent temporarily for studies in a different location from their home.
  2. Tenants who must temporarily relocate due to urgent repairs or renovations of their current home.
  3. Persons coming from social care or in a social emergency, who can prove their situation.

Model C - Specific Term: A definite term lease with a clear end date and possible extension under similar conditions. Tenants can leave after the minimum term with one month's notice. This contract is used when landlords temporarily need their property back. If you are temporarily absent due to vacation, work, or study, you can sublet your home temporarily. This is also known as the diplomatic clause.

Renting your property to up to two adults doesn't require a municipal permit. However, if you intend to rent to more than two adults from different households, applying for a permit is necessary. This situation falls under room-based rental. Fortunately, securing this permit allows each resident to register with the municipality. Keep in mind, permit policies differ by municipality, making it crucial to understand your local regulations. In Amsterdam, for instance, this specific permit is known as a conversion permit.
