Core offering

The Rental Agency Amsterdam is a residential rental brokerage that connects landlords with tenants in the Amsterdam metropolitan area. It provides three core services: letting services for landlords (tenant sourcing, screening, lease negotiation, and listing distribution), renting services for tenants (property viewings, dossier presentation, and home-finding tours on a no cure no pay basis), and day-to-day property management for landlords. A subscription-based home search alert service (My Match) supplements these offerings with automated email matching of new listings.

Product overview

The Rental Agency Amsterdam operates as a residential real estate brokerage offering a unified service portfolio centered on three core offerings: letting services for landlords, renting services for tenants, and property management. These are supported by an online property listing portal accessible to both registered and public users. A supplementary subscription-based 'My Match' alert service enables tenants to receive automated email notifications when matching properties are listed. The company does not offer distinct software products or modules — its offering is service-oriented, with technology primarily limited to the listing website and user account system.
