If you are looking for a rental property in Rotterdam and have set a budget for total rental costs, you may come across several properties online with a rent exclusive. But what does a rent exclusive really mean?

What does a rent exclusive in Rotterdam mean? A rent exclusive includes only the bare rent you pay monthly for a property in Rotterdam. The costs for utilities, television, internet, garbage collection and water taxes are in this case the responsibility of the tenant. You also have to take into account the costs for lighting in the shared stairwell and possibly a central heating maintenance subscription.

How much are the extra costs for a rental property with exclusive rent in Rotterdam? These additional costs vary from household to household and depend on energy consumption and personal preferences. For example, if you keep the heating at 23°C all day, your energy bill will be higher than for a more economical household. Choosing the fastest Internet package and not wanting to miss Eredivisie matches can also increase costs.

Cost per household.

Suppose, as an example, we take a two-person household in Rotterdam. The estimated additional costs are as follows:

  • Energy (gas and light): €120 per month
  • Water: €16 per month
  • TV+internet: €60 per month
  • Garbage tax: €342.50 per year
  • Water tax: €212 per year
  • Stairwell lighting: €10 per month
  • CV maintenance subscription: €10 per month

Taking all these costs into account, you end up with an average of about €130 per person per month for exclusive amenities and services in a household of two in Rotterdam.

If you prefer to live alone in Rotterdam, the cost picture looks different:

  • Energy (gas and light): €90 per month
  • Water: €11,- per month;
  • TV+internet: €60 per month
  • Garbage tax: €285.90 per year
  • Water tax: €106 per year
  • Stairwell lighting: €10 per month
  • CV maintenance subscription: €10 per month

In this case, if you choose to live alone in Rotterdam, the estimated cost is about €215 per month.

In short, the rental price is exclusive of the basic rental price, whereby you must take into account a variety of costs for services and services!
