Should I buy or rent a home in Leiden?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Leiden, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Leiden can be a great investment. The city is known for its vibrant culture, beautiful architecture, and excellent quality of life. The cost of living is relatively low compared to other cities in the Netherlands, making it an attractive option for those looking to purchase a home. Renting a home in Leiden can also be a great option, as it allows you to enjoy the city without the commitment of a long-term purchase. Additionally, the rental market in Leiden is quite competitive, so you may be able to find a great deal on a rental property. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Leiden will depend on your individual needs and preferences," explained one expat living in Leiden, The Netherlands.
