Immigrants overbid on Amsterdam housing often, but at a lower rate than Dutch buyers

Immigrants tend to find a home in the Netherlands faster than Dutch homebuyers. That is because they overbid more often than their Dutch counterparts and bid on more homes. But Dutch buyers overbid by higher amounts than home seekers from abroad, according to a study by mortgage advisor Viisi among 927 immigrants and 1,923 Dutch people who recently bought a home.
