85 percent of houses in Haarlem sold within three months
Data from Dynamis reveals that 85 percent of homes in Haarlem were sold within three months during the third quarter, a slight decrease from the previous year. While the volume of house sales in the region has declined, property prices continue to rise amid a cooling market influenced by higher mortgage rates.
According to data from the real estate collective Dynamis, 85 percent of homes sold in Haarlem between July and September were on the market for less than three months. This figure represents a slight decrease compared to the same period in 2025, when 90 percent of homes sold within that timeframe. Additionally, the proportion of homes listed for more than a year dropped to 0.3 percent. The data, covering transactions managed by NVM estate agents, suggests that the housing market is experiencing a shift in dynamics.
Market experts note that pressure on the Dutch housing market is cooling as prospective buyers take more time to decide. Factors contributing to this trend include an increased selection of available properties and higher mortgage interest rates, which now average around 4.4 percent for a ten-year fixed term. While the total number of transactions in the Haarlem region decreased compared to last year, house prices in the area rose by 2 percent. Nationwide, trends remain similar with a modest decline in sales volume alongside continued, though slowing, price growth.
