Frequently asked questions
Can't find your question? Every listing links to its source, where you can ask the landlord directly.
What is a rental alert?
A rental alert is a notification you get as soon as a new rental home that matches your wishes goes online. Huurbel sends them for free by email or Telegram and checks Dutch rental websites and letting agents at once.
How do I get notified when a rental home becomes available in the Netherlands?
Sign in to Huurbel with Google, pick your city, maximum rent and must-haves, and choose how you want to be notified. You'll get an email or Telegram message as soon as a matching home goes online, or one summary a day.
Is Huurbel free?
Yes, Huurbel is completely free. There's no subscription, no credit card and no agency fee.
Which rental websites does Huurbel search?
Huurbel searches the big rental websites and letting agents, including Pararius, Kamernet, HousingAnywhere, DirectWonen, Rotsvast and 123Wonen, plus agencies that only list homes on their own website. More sources are added over time.
How fast will I see new rental homes?
We check most rental sites and agents several times a day. With instant alerts, a new home usually reaches your inbox or Telegram within minutes of being listed.
Which cities does Huurbel cover?
Huurbel covers the whole of the Netherlands, including Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht, Eindhoven, Groningen and Haarlem. You can pick several cities or search within a radius of your work, school or a station.
Can I get alerts on Telegram?
Yes. Connect Telegram in your search profile and every new home arrives instantly as a message with photo, price and a link to the listing. Email works too: instantly for every home or one summary a day at 18:00.
Is Huurbel an alternative to Rentslam?
Yes. Huurbel works in a similar way – you get alerts for new rental homes from several websites – but it's free. Rentslam is a paid subscription and, by its own account, covers more websites.
Will I see the same home three times?
No. When a home is listed on several sites we recognise it by its address and show it once. If we're not sure, we keep them apart rather than merge two different homes.
What do you do about rental scams?
Suspicious listings, such as rent that's far too low or details that don't add up, are held back. Never pay anything before you've viewed the home and seen the rental contract.
Are you a letting agent?
No. Huurbel only collects what's on offer. You reply to and rent directly from the landlord or agent through the link to the original listing.
What do you do with my data?
We only keep what your search profile needs and never share your income; we only use it for filtering. In your search profile you can pause alerts, download your data and delete your account with all its data.
