This table provides an overview of the average sales price paid in the reporting period for existing owner-occupied homes purchased by a private individual. The average sales price may show a different development than the Price Index for Existing Owner-occupied Homes (PBK). The average purchase price is not an indicator for the price development of owner-occupied homes. The average purchase price reflects the average price of homes sold in a specific period. Because different homes are sold every period, any different characteristics of the sold homes are not taken into account. An example to explain the problems this entails: Suppose in February of a year mainly large canal houses with a garden were sold, while in March many small townhouses changed hands. As a result, the average purchase price in February will be higher than in March, but this does not mean that house prices have risen. See Section 3 for a link to the article 'Why the average purchase price is not a house price indicator'. Data available from: 1995 Status of the figures: The figures in this table are immediately definitive. The calculation of these figures is based on the number of notary transactions established each month by the Kadaster. A revision of the figures only takes place in exceptional cases, namely only if there is a significant error outside the usual statistical margins. The average sales prices of existing owner-occupied homes can also be calculated by the Kadaster at a later date. Usually these figures are the same as the publication on Statline, but they differ from each other in some periods. In these cases, Kadaster uses the most up-to-date figures. These may have changed since the first publication. Statistics Netherlands uses figures from the first publication in accordance with the above revision policy. Changes as of February 23, 2022 Correction: The average sales prices of the municipalities of Bloemendaal and Blaricum in 2021 were incorrectly displayed. The last digit (7th position) was missing for these municipalities. These figures have been added. Changes as of February 15, 2023 Figures average sales prices of the municipalities year 2022 added. When will new numbers come out? The new figures will be published approximately one to three months after the year under review.
