Housing

Your home is your castle… Especially as an expat

A new house in which to live your new life is essential, but unfamiliar laws can add a lot of stress, especially when the paperwork is in another language.

The last thing you want is to find “surprises” in your purchase or rental contract after you have signed.

Our experts can advise you on all aspects of property law, from renting or buying a home to understanding your rights and responsibilities under Dutch law.
