5 pros offering the best property management in Amsterdam for maximum ROI
When we first decided to rent out our apartment in Amsterdam, we thought that managing it ourselves would be straightforward. But with work commitments and running errands, it quickly turned into a full-time gig we never signed up for.
We realised we needed help at that moment. A reliable property management company helped us regain our time and peace of mind, while ensuring everything ran smoothly behind the scenes.
If you’re a fellow property owner in Amsterdam and want to relax without losing income, here are some of the best property management companies we found that you can trust.
| How much do property management companies charge in Amsterdam? Property management companies in Amsterdam typically charge between 4% and 8% of the monthly rental income, plus 21% VAT. However, the final price may depend on the company, the property type, and the level of service. |
1. Hausing
Address: Overtoom 303 H, 1054 JL
Contact Details: +31 85 800 1441
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Sunday: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
We like Hausing’s partnership with a licensed local property manager. Everything from collecting rent to handling those late-night repair calls goes off without any stress.
When it comes to selling, they charge just a 1% agency fee, which already includes free valuations and flexible viewing options. That’s more affordable than what we’ve seen from the competitors.
Additionally, it’s particularly valuable that they prioritise sustainability by providing energy labels and NEN 2580 floor plans. Energy labels quickly indicate the energy efficiency of a property, enabling buyers and renters to make more informed choices.
Most importantly, they focus on expat rentals (over 90%), and with their three offices in Amsterdam, it’s clear they understand their target customers.
However, we heard from some clients that it took them a long time to receive a reply or that they never received a response at all.
Guides smooth renovations and tenant selection
“I had a fantastic experience working with Eduardo and his team. Not only did they help me rent out my apartment, but they also guided me through the renovation process, ensuring the upgrades were both appealing and suitable for tenants. Finding skilled labor in the Netherlands can be a challenge, but Eduardo’s support made everything smooth and efficient. The selection process for tenants was thorough, and I was impressed by the quality of candidates. I highly recommend Eduardo and his team for their professionalism, expertise, and excellent service!”

Handles full rental process effortlessly
“Hausing, and especially Edoardo, were incredibly helpful in finding a renter for my apartment. The service was excellent—you simply hand over the keys, and Hausing takes care of everything, from the rental agreement to the check-in at the start and check-out at the end of the rental period.”

2. PCW Housing
Address: Keizersgracht 520-H, 1017 EK
Contact Details: +31 20 782 2030
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Saturday: 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM
Finding a rental partner in the city who truly understands the needs of creative professionals and startups seemed like a daunting task until a friend discovered PCW Housing and shared his experience with us.
As he said, PCW Housing follows a straightforward approach. Just minutes after exploring their platform, he secured a free 1-hour home consultation (yes, they’ll actually come right to your doorstep).
Within only five days, the team found him a renter and took care of everything, from promoting the property to handing over the keys.
Another client also shared how simple it was to find a match just by filling out PCW Housing’s online search form. This quickly connects house seekers with available rentals based on their preferences.
The only downside is that they’re focused on rentals and property management, so if you’re looking to buy, sell or full-service options, you’ll need to explore other options.
Finds perfect tenants efficiently
“I recently worked with Pieter who was exceptional. He made the entire process of finding a new tenant for my apartment incredibly easy and stress-free. His knowledge of the market was impressive, and he was always available to answer my questions. Thanks to his efficiency and expertise, I found the perfect tenants quickly. Truly a five-star experience!”
- Timothy Van Niekerk, Google Review
Rents out an apartment in under a week
“I had an amazing experience working with Pieter as my real estate agent in Amsterdam. He was incredibly attentive and always just a call away when I had questions or needed assistance. Thanks to his dedication and expertise, I was able to rent my apartment in less than a week! Pieter’s exceptional service made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend it!”

3. My Home Amsterdam
Address: Amstel 106A, 1017 AD
Contact Details: +31 65 587 0776
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday: 9:30 AM to 5:00 PM
We were really drawn to My Home Amsterdam because of their reputation for providing truly personalised services.
One of its founders, Raul, brings this enthusiasm from his 30 years of living in Amsterdam. Meanwhile, Nimue, with her background in hotel management, adds a level of hospitality that instantly makes us feel at home.
What really impressed us was the consistency of having the same contact person throughout the process, as it provides property owners like us peace of mind knowing that one dedicated individual is taking care of our property.
We even spoke with a former client who told us how smooth the rental experience was. The process includes private viewings, detailed background checks, listings on popular websites such as Funda and Pararius, and help with signing the lease.
And you know what’s even better? If you opt for both rental and property management, you get the first two months of property management for free.
One thing to keep in mind is that they’re a small team, so you might experience slower response times.
Creates a personal and humane renting experience
“In the 15 moves I have made so far, almost each time as a tenant, Nimue and Raul have been by far the best intermediate landlords I have ever encountered. Very personal, humane, accommodating. They have made living in Amsterdam an amazing and almost surreal experience. I am very blessed to be able to rent from them.”
- Karyna Dillmann, Google Review
Provides full-service flat management
“Raul has managed my flat in Amsterdam for more than a year now, and I’m very happy with the service. I live abroad, so he fully manages my flat, from advertising the place, to finding suitable tenants, collecting payments and taking care of the flat, and even sending mail to my new address. He’s very professional. All communications have always been transparent and payments arrived on time. I couldn’t recommend him more.”

4. Brick Amsterdam
Address: Raamgracht 8, 1011 KK
Contact Details: +31 20 786 6217
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Thursday: 10:00 AM to 7:00 PM
- Friday: 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM
- Saturday: 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM
Brick Amsterdam’s team truly understands what it takes to manage a property as if it were their own.
We appreciate that they offer a full-service rental package at €1200, which is quick, clear and hassle-free. Our friend also highly recommends their 8% Essential Plan that includes 24/7 on-call support and responsive tenant care.
But what caught our attention is their 10% Premium Plan, which includes everything from repairs to tenant checkouts. The Excellence Plan (12%) even includes tax reimbursements and rent adjustments.
Not only that, if you’re managing more than 10 properties, their Cruise Control Enterprise Plan at €190 per month is great for managing everything. It includes tracking, reporting, and payment.
Yet again, it’s essential to note that they don’t offer obligation-free consultations, so if you’re considering their services, be sure to come prepared with any details about your property.
Finds ideal tenants so you can travel stress-free
“Sjuudie and Brick helped me tremendously with finding potential tenants and ultimately the actual tenant. Professional, knowledgeable, responds quickly, completely and friendly and did quickly/exactly what I asked for. Now I could continue with my travel plan and have a nice tenant in the house! Very nice and I would definitely contact her and/or Brick again in the future for similar ones!”
- Friso Broertjes, Google Review
Communicates promptly with owners and tenants
“Brick manages a couple of my properties and I’m very pleased about how they communicate with me and my tenants. I always get prompt replies and they are always willing to help.”
- Indah Janssen, Google Review
5. Housing & Co.
Address: Nieuwezijds Voorburgwal 91, 1012 RE
Contact Details: +31 20 211 9443
Operating Hours:
- Monday to Friday: 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM
Since 2015, Housing & Co. has quietly won the hearts of property owners, and after experiencing their full-service property management, it’s easy to understand why. It felt like we had finally found a partner who truly understands the intricacies of real estate.
As a startup trying to balance growth and day-to-day operations, it was a great relief to have someone else handle finding tenants quickly and put together the right rental agreements.
Additionally, we appreciated their offer of 75% of the first month’s rent (excluding VAT), which included everything from showing the property to handling the paperwork.
What’s really great about them is that they provide brokerage services. To be honest, when we first talked about selling their apartment, it felt more like a planning session than a typical sales pitch.
And yes, they offer a €69 per month property plan that covers both technical and financial management.
However, a few clients said that responses were slow when handling issues.
Excellent management services
“Marco and Ruben from Vastgoed & Co provide excellent management services! They respond very quickly, ensure tight communication and always know how to pleasantly surprise our tenants with their knowledge and cheerful appearance. As a financial manager, I am most helped by their proactive actions. In addition, they also helped me privately with acquiring a nice small house in Amsterdam North for our daughter.”
- Peter de Vries, Google Review
Rents out fast with professional communication
“Marco and Ruben did a fantastic job renting out my apartment. Super fast and professional communication, and for a very good price! I would recommend it to everyone.”
