I’m abroad, but you can reserve the place today.
Can we schedule a viewing first?
Please send the deposit now to secure it.

Use the report to resolve ownership, landlord, listing or payment mismatches before you commit. Rental verification reduces uncertainty but cannot guarantee that an offer is safe.

How it works

How Housetective verifies your rental

Choose a digital rental verification or add a physical inspection when you cannot attend the viewing yourself.

Step 1

Enter the Dutch rental address

Start with the complete property address, including the postcode, house number and apartment addition. This connects the verification to the exact rental being offered.

Enter property address
Step 2

Check the legal property owner

Review the available property ownership information and compare the registered owner with the person or company offering the rental.
