Each place's own figures where it has them; a dash means there is none. Prices are asking prices where a place has them, and bank valuations otherwise.

Affordability

  • Lochem

    At the average sale price, a home costs €587,573. With 10% down and a 30-year mortgage, the payment is €2,506 a month. The Netherlands sets no single cap on the payment: each year the law fixes how much of their income a household may spend on the mortgage, by income and interest rate.

Buy or rent

  • Lochem

    Renting the average home costs less each month than owning it. Owning counts interest, running costs and the return the deposit could earn, at the average sale price; rent is what private tenants pay on average, after housing benefit. Repaying the loan is saving, so it is left out.
