Arnhem: Rock bottom WOZ and energy label drag this 914 euro 20sqm apartment's rent down to 315 euro per month. Located next to the Rozet library...worth a bust if you are looking in Gelderland
Amsterdam: 75sqm with a dogshit energy label. Landlord prob doesnt have a clue that this 2750 euro rent price could get chopped down to 1125 euro. Images look like they might be enhanced by AI - colors seem a little off.
Government has decided that they have had enough of the self-policing real estate industry abusing the shit out of buyers, driving up prices and will implement an obligatory register for them....image unrelated.
1993: David Duchovny plays a outcast special agent who believes in space aliens, ghosts, conspiracy theories and the deep state, a character that serves as a role-model to modern FBI agents
Maastricht: Its funny, I can hear bullshit but I cannot smell any... Prohousing renting this whole 21sqm studio, label E for 870 excl..even have the nerve to ask for a 225 euro agency fee - and these guys are suppose to be NVM (trade union for law-abiding makelaars) Bust price is to 370 euro.
Amsterdam: Never share your email address with these Match guys...they share it with third-parties who spam the shit out of you and omg that kitchen absolutely blows . What do they want? 2500 euro?? bust price is half...
Amsterdam: Occasionally, rivers flow up hill, teacups un shatter and an apartment built after 2002 gets an energy label worse than A - someone must have really f**ked up with the construction because this 71sqm 1785 euro rent home could have been liberalized without a label. Bust price is 1145/174pt
Amsterdam: This one is sus - 2650/month 68sqm with label B - Scores around 188pts but there is a mismatch between the size of apartment on the ad and that on the label (76sqm). Label inspectors tweak sqm on energy performance calcs to give landlord better labels for $$$.

Its a very difficult to prove at the Huurcommissie. How they measure space for the Huurcommissie is different than how they measure space for energy labels. Often deadspace (anything under a ceiling with < 1.5m of headroom is excluded on HC measurements but kosher on EL measurements). I dont see any inclined ceilings that would explain 8sqm difference. The hallway might be a factor (often excluded on HC measurements due to being a traffic area but included on EL measurements).
Again, its just sus...I cannot tell for sure that the label is crooked but given it is a monument with no heat pump or solar panels, its weird they would get a label so good and so close to the border between a B and C.
Amsterdam: Another AH apartment up for busting - Dogshit label C and a conservatory/glass roof that will leach heat like a motherfucker in winter. Photos seem to have an unnatural AI polish to them (still waiting for a stool with 5 legs). Asking 2300 ..bust to 1000 under current label.
Amsterdam: Apartment cowboys, Ted, they're a bunch of apartment cowboys!!! Another Expat student only homes (who can be legitimately offered a temp contract) 1995 euro for 40sqm and label A (I think). Bust is 163pt/ 1063 euro.
Its been three weeks since Dolly died
I am still suffering from post-Parton depression though
Amsterdam: Given the slanted roof, I am curious how much liveable space this 2000 euro/month label A home actually has. Only space with >1.5m of headroom is counted on the points calculator. Estimated that the bust rent price is 1200 euro with some leeway due to the WOZ cap.
Amsterdam, Mexico : Hausing offering this 52sqm home in Postjesweg. Nice balcony. Price is not so nice - 2800 euro. Points comes out close to 181 with a max rent price of 1193 euro. Dont wait around for someone else to take it, get a viewing and bust them... Vamos, Amigos!!!
To Dutch people living in London: Traveling from NL to London on the Eurostar with empty suitcases to buy as much cheap breakfast cereal as I can. Want any Dutch food brought over?
Edit: Date confirmed - Tuesday 15th Sept between 1200 (arrival) and 1600 (departure).
Mods: I am not accepting any payment for this outside of the cost to purchase the food item in NL. I posted the same on the dutch subreddit ( https://www.reddit.com/r/Netherlands/comments/1wakbj6/update_to_the_weetabix_post_a_few_months_ago/ ) so I am not violating Rule 8.
I have an interrail pass that is still good for a day and my goal is to go to London, buy as much weetabix/cerals as I can and return within the day. I will bring a 60L backpack and a large suitcase and a little shoulder bag. These will be empty on the trip to London and so I have room to carry stuff to london - a lot of stuff.
I am sympathetic to living abroad and missing stuff from home. For me its the breakfast cereals. Dutch Breakfasts cereals are overpriced dry cardboard dipped in UHT milk (they sometimes have sandwiches for breakfast - they're weird, no offense)
Being the noble and generous soul that I am, I am gonna offer to bring stuff from NL for free (aside from the actual cost of purchasing the item) to the UK for anyone here who requests it, if it can fit in easily into my suitcases. There would be restrictions though.
1: I am not transporting meat/dairy because they are prohibited to transport between the states ( https://www.gov.uk/bringing-food-into-great-britain/meat-dairy-fish-animal-products ). So no cheese.
2: No packages that a man with gang tattoos will collect from me outside the station. If you want to send something to your kid who just moved to London for study that they accidently left behind, I might be able to help.
3: Priority given to food goods that you cannot get in the UK (cheaply). If you want something in bulk, message me with the amount.
4: Pickup will have to be near St. Pancras Station - I have limited time in the UK and will be returning to NL within hours of arriving.
5: If the food items can be purchased at Jumbo, Plus, Albert Heijn, all the better. If you want something, please send the URL of the product and how many you want.
6: No excise goods - alcohol, tobacco etc. No items above 135 euro. I have total discretion to refuse to move something if I think its gonna run the ire of customs.
The exact date of arrival will be September 15. I will be there at 12 and leave at 4.
Update to the Weetabix post a few months ago: Going to London in a few weeks with empty suitcases - Want anything?
A few months ago I wrote a post highly critical about the prices in Dutch supermarkets for Weetabix and the poor range of other breakfast cereals offered here.

1: I am not transporting meat/dairy/fish because they are prohibited in the EU.
2: No items that I cannot buy in a shop within walking distance of St. Pancras station.
3: No packages that a man with gang tattoos will give me outside the station
4: Priority given to small food goods that you cannot get here (cheaply)
Return route will be via Breda and then along the NS Zwolle line to Arnhem in case you want to pick it up from the station when I am on my way home.
I visit many dutch cities every month for work (except Groningen) and I go to Amsterdam often so if you dont mind waiting.
First-come, first served. Please list the item and where I can get. Photo if possible or a link to the product on the shops website. Leave a comment below or DM me
