  • I don’t pay a commission with RentSlam, but the real estate agent still sends me a bill?

    Yes, this frustrates us too. If you hire an agent to find a property for you, that agent does a lot of work and therefore has the right to charge a commission – logical, right? But if you find a property using RentSlam, without hiring an agent, you don’t owe the letting agent any commission. If you’ve already paid it, you can request a refund. Read more here, and let us know if you need further assistance. Here’s a link to a form to request your refund.

  • I’m looking for a room (in a student house). Can you help with that?

    Yes, we also find rooms, not only studio’s and apartments. Make sure you include rooms in your search profiles to receive them.

  • What documents should I bring to a viewing?

    If the provider doesn’t specify that you need to bring something in advance, assume it’s unnecessary. However, if you want to make a good impression, bring an ID (driver’s license or passport), an employment contract, and payslips.

  • Why RentSlam and not just keep checking Funda and Pararius all day?

    Funda and Pararius are great resources with a lot of inventory, but there is still plenty of availability that never appears on these platforms. Also, competition for properties on these platforms is intense since everyone searches there. We actively search over 1,000 websites for properties that match your search profile. We do this literally every 30 seconds, 24/7, which isn’t something you could do manually—only a machine can. RentSlam ensures you get far more properties and can respond much faster.

  • I want a property that allows pets. How do I search for that?

    Pet filters are unnecessary. There’s no law stating that a landlord can prohibit a tenant from having a pet. So even if the landlord isn’t thrilled about your beloved dog, they can’t forbid it. The only exception is if it’s specified in the statutes of the Homeowners Association. You might want to double-check this for peace of mind. Of course, if your pet causes excessive disturbance to neighbours, you may eventually have to leave with your pet, but only after losing a lengthy legal process.

  • What are realistic budget expectations?

    We hope we can clarify this for you. Our “cities” section on the website has plenty of information on the average price per square meter in the cities we write about. But keep in mind, these are averages; if you’re lucky you can find a bargain, but at other times you’ll need patience and be realistic. If you want specific data for your city, contact us, and we’ll share it with you.

  • How long does it take to rent a property?

    This might be the most frequently asked question! The answer depends on the circumstances. Many of our customers find a property within a week, while others take over a month. The better your search profile matches what’s available on the market, the faster you can rent a house. The main factors that influence how long it takes to find a rental are:

    1. Does your budget align with the rest of your search criteria?
    2. How quickly do you respond to the listings we send?
    3. To what extent do you meet the landlord’s requirements?
    4. How large is your search area?

  • I’ve read the website but still don’t understand what you do.

    We scan all reliable rental websites every 30 seconds, 24 hours a day, searching for new rental properties. This means that you no longer need to spend hours a day searching online. All you need to do is check your email or your WhatsApp messages. And because we do it so fast, you never have to be too late to respond. We also search over 1,000 websites, so we simply find more properties than you could possibly do yourself. Plus, you don’t have to pay us any commission when you rent a house.

  • In which cities can I use RentSlam?

    RentSlam works throughout the Netherlands, so you can register with confidence. However, not every city has many rental properties available. If you’re moving to a location that most people haven’t heard of, let us know. We’ll make an extra effort to find all available properties there for you.
