It is wise to start your search at Funda. You might already know that. on www.funda.nl Select your search criteria such as the Alkmaar area, number of bedrooms, size of the house and what type of home you are looking for.
Search criteria in Funda
You have all kinds of search criteria in Funda to easily find homes that match your housing needs. For example:
Price field: Enter your price range here. Increase the minimum amount if you are not looking for DIY homes. We always advise you to keep your maximum budget a little more generous, as there is often room for negotiation. This way you increase the search results and you can filter further manually.
Search filters: On the left you will see all kinds of search filters such as construction period, number of bedrooms, presence of a garden or garage, type of home, etc. This limits the results to homes that suit you.
Free search field: You can fill in everything here. For example, the neighborhood in which you are looking for something, such as Daalmeer, Spoorbuurt, Hoefplan or Schelphoek. But you can also specify special wishes here, such as sauna, workshop, office or station.
