Table explanation
The figures of existing own homes are related to the stock of existing own homes. Besides the price indices, figures are also published about the numbers sold, the average purchase price, and the total sum of the purchase prices of the sold dwellings. The House Price Index of existing own homes is based on a complete registration of sales of dwellings by the Dutch Land Registry Office (Kadaster) and the (WOZ) value of all dwellings in the Netherlands. Indices can fluctuate, for example when a limited number of dwellings of a certain type is sold. In such cases we recommended using the long-term figures.
The average purchase price of existing own homes may differ from the price index of existing own homes. The change in the average purchase price, however, is not an indicator for price developments of existing own homes.
Data available from: January 1995 - 2017
Status of the figures:
The figures are definitive.
Changes as of 21 February 2014:
Price information for 2008 onwards has been revised because of an improvement in the weighting scheme. The weighting scheme is based on the stock of existing own homes instead of the stock of all existing homes. The effect of the revision is very small.
Changes as of 21 February 2018:
None, this table has been discontinued. This table is followed by the table House Price Index; existing own homes 2015 = 100. See paragraph 3
