More homes bought and sold in July

According to The Netherlands’ Cadastre, the total number of dwellings bought and sold recorded during the month of July stood at 18,610. That was almost a quarter more than one year previously. In the first seven months of this year, a total of 110,993 dwellings changed ownership; an increase of over 11 percent year on year.

In July, the average transaction price for an owner-occupied dwelling was 457,320 euros. However, it is not the transaction price but the price index that is used to determine price changes for existing owner-occupied dwellings. Unlike the price index, the average transaction price does not take into account differences in the quality of homes.
