Welcome to Het Stadshuis. Formerly known as De Nieuwe Verhuurmakelaar, I’ve been working under a new name and with a broader focus since 2025: in addition to rentals, I now also manage the sale of properties in Amsterdam and the surrounding area. After years of renting out my own apartments in Amsterdam and Amstelveen through rental agents, I started my own agency a few years ago because I felt there was a better way. Personal attention and offering packages, in particular, distinguish Het Stadshuis from other agents.
Personal and Committed
While many agents view renting or selling a property as a transaction, I believe there’s more to it. For landlords, sellers, tenants, and buyers alike, the process can be stressful and confusing. I carefully guide every step of the way and always ensure there’s room for personal contact. I don’t schedule viewings with large crowds of people at once, but in measured doses so everyone can ask questions and I can get a feel for the candidates. This allows you to start a sales or rental period on a solid foundation, which is crucial for the remainder of the period.
Expert in Selling and Renting Out
The Amsterdam housing market is changing rapidly. New regulations, shortages, and price trends require up-to-date knowledge and sharp advice. I closely monitor these developments and translate them into concrete opportunities for my clients. Whether it’s renting out your property safely to expats or preparing an apartment for sale in Amsterdam or Amstelveen, I’ll work with you, identify risks, and always look for the right candidate or buyer.
Flexible and Transparent
At Het Stadshuis, you choose the services that suit you. Want complete peace of mind when renting out your property? Then I’ll take care of the entire process. Do you only need online visibility and a screening of potential tenants? That’s also possible. All prices and services are clear and transparent upfront, so you stay in control of your budget.
Safe and Reliable
I understand how important it is for you to feel confident in choosing a tenant or buyer. That’s why I take my time during viewings and conduct thorough screenings. This way, I minimize risks and help you find a candidate who matches your needs. When selling, I also guide you through negotiations, legal documents, and the final transfer, ensuring everything runs smoothly and without surprises.
The Right Match
Every landlord or seller has their own priorities. Some seek maximum returns, while others primarily seek a reliable tenant or buyer with whom they click. I listen carefully to your needs and tailor my search accordingly. This way, we find the perfect match for you.
Service and Personal Attention
My clients value me most for my personal approach and commitment. I remove uncertainties, offer clarity, and am happy to go the extra mile when needed. Landlords, sellers, tenants, and buyers find working with me accessible, service-oriented, and pleasant.
Introduction
I’m Irene, founder of Het Stadshuis, born and raised in the city centre of Amsterdam. I know the city inside and out, and I love the city. I’ve also worked abroad, and I still love to travel, which I have done extensively. Thanks to my international experience, I understand the challenges of moving to a new city and finding your way around the institutions and the daily foreign customs. I am somewhat of a pleaser, so I enjoy helping expats to find their way around.
As a realtor I love the diversity of people, cultures, and stories that come together in the Amsterdam housing market.
Hopefully, we can meet soon.
Would you like to know more or have any questions? Please do get in touch.
Warm Regards,
Irene
