Average WOZ value and average selling price houses the Netherlands 2019-2022
Municipalities in the Netherlands are responsible for implementing the Valuation of Immovable Property Act (or WOZ). They assess the value of immovable property, such as houses, by carrying out a taxation. The calculation of this WOZ value is based on the amount the property would have sold for on the reference date (January 1st of the previous year). The value is passed on to the water authorities and the Tax and Customs Administration and is being used to calculate taxes. In 2022, the average selling price for residential property in the Netherlands was approximately 429,000 euros, which was higher than its average WOZ value of approximately 378,000 euros.
