How the search works

We agree your budget, move-in date and daily journey, then follow listings and our professional network in Leeuwarden, attend viewings and help you apply with a complete file.

What is different in Leeuwarden

  • The university and the hospitals drive most rental demand.
  • Homes are affordable compared with the west, but good ones go quickly.
  • Frisian is spoken alongside Dutch; our search and your paperwork run in English too.

Areas we often look at

Binnenstad

Canals, shops and the Blokhuispoort.

Aldlân

Residential, close to the centre.

Bilgaard

Family district to the west.

Zuiderburen

New homes near the water.

These are the areas we reach for most often in Leeuwarden, not a limit. We cover the whole Netherlands — if you are also weighing up a nearby town, tell us where or see every city we cover.

What to prepare

  • Passport or ID and your employment contract or proof of enrolment
  • Recent payslips or proof of funds for the income check
  • A clear budget, move-in date and number of people
  • Your daily commute or school location, so we can judge areas
