Property management company website cost in Eindhoven: local agencies vs Kolonell (2026)

The verdict in three sentences

In Eindhoven, a property management company website costs, as a 2026 order of magnitude, about 7 000 to 30 000 EUR with a local agency and 2 000 to 7 000 EUR with a freelancer, which puts a good freelancer level with Kolonell or below it. Kolonell charges a fixed 2 700, 4 500 or 8 200 EUR and makes its case mainly on one point: native English copywriting for the international engineers and researchers who rent through relocation agencies, with a project manager and a written scope. For a small firm whose tenants are mostly international, the three-year total cost leans clearly towards a lean English site rather than a full agency project.

Eindhoven agency, freelancer or Kolonell: what are you paying for?

These ranges are cautious orders of magnitude, not official figures. They come from public price lists of web agencies in Eindhoven and North Brabant, minimum project sizes on Clutch.co profiles, hourly rates published by local agencies (often 70 to 110 EUR an hour) and rates visible on Malt and Upwork.

Payment is by bank transfer or Wise: 50 % at kickoff, 50 % at delivery. The team is based in Senegal (GMT), one to two hours behind Eindhoven depending on the season, so exchanges happen during your office hours. No unit visits and no photos: your team or a local photographer provides them. See our international website offer.

How much does the site cost over three years?

Here the firm chooses an English site (Growth) rather than a full bilingual site. The table keeps the same maintenance assumption on both sides, since Kolonell quotes maintenance after the support period separately.

An Eindhoven freelancer at 4 000 EUR would come to about 7 600 EUR over the same period: cheaper, provided they write convincing English or you supply the copy.

What does each package include for an expat-focused property manager?

A custom tenant portal is an application quoted separately. Ongoing SEO is also quoted separately.

What should an Eindhoven property manager's site do?

Rental demand in Eindhoven is driven by the Brainport technology ecosystem, TU/e and the High Tech Campus. A large share of tenants arrives from abroad with a signed contract and little time to search, often supported by a relocation agency or the employer's HR team. They mostly rent furnished apartments in Strijp, the centre, Woensel or near the campus. Owners are local private investors, and sometimes departing expats who leave their home in your care.

• Speak to relocation agencies: they send tenants in batches and want clear availability.
• Show available units from your software or your Pararius listings, to avoid enquiries about homes already let.
• Explain the Dutch framework in English: municipal registration, lease, deposit.
• Reassure owners: move-in and move-out inspections, repair handling, a named contact.

On compliance, facts only. Since 1 July 2023, the Good Landlordship Act (Wet goed verhuurderschap) sets written rules for landlords and intermediaries, including a ban on discrimination and a deposit cap of two months' basic rent; since 1 July 2024, the Affordable Rent Act extends the points system to the mid-rent segment. For room lets or splitting homes, check the City of Eindhoven's permit rules before advertising them. Forms fall under the GDPR. This is not legal advice.

Which questions should you ask before signing?

• Who writes the English? Copy translated word for word from Dutch misses the tone an engineer arriving from Bangalore or Boston expects.
• Does the quote include a page for relocation agencies? It is often your first tenant channel.
• Are available units linked to a tool, or typed in by hand?
• Is the domain in your name?
• Are out-of-scope hours priced before the work?

Mini case study

Illustrative example. Ruud de B. runs a family firm of 180 furnished homes in Eindhoven, three quarters let to international employees. A local agency quotes 15 000 EUR for a bilingual site over 10 weeks; a freelancer quotes 4 000 EUR but asks Ruud to write the copy; Kolonell proposes Growth at 4 500 EUR, an English site written natively, with two Dutch pages from a translator (600 EUR), in 4 weeks.

Ruud runs the numbers: at his 8 % fee, a furnished apartment let at 2 100 EUR a month brings 168 EUR a month, or 2 016 EUR a year. The build gap with the agency, about 9 900 EUR, equals nearly five years of fees on a single home. The site promises no mandate, but it makes the request easier for a busy owner.
