Rules
Owners Association
The property is an 'eengezinswoning, tussenwoning' (terraced single-family house). Such properties in the Netherlands are typically not part of an owners association (VvE), which is more common for apartment complexes. The text also lists 'Kadastrale gegevens' with 'Volle eigendom' (full ownership) and no mention of a VvE, reinforcing this conclusion.
Leasehold
The 'Kadastrale gegevens' section explicitly states 'Eigendomssituatie: Volle eigendom', which means full ownership. This is the opposite of leasehold ('erfpacht').
Oa Chamber Of Commerce Registered
As the property is a single-family home and not part of an owners association (VvE), there is no VvE to be registered with the chamber of commerce.
Oa Annual Meeting
The property is a terraced house ('tussenwoning') with 'Volle eigendom' (full ownership), making it highly unlikely to be part of a VvE. Therefore, there is no annual meeting for a VvE.
Oa Fees
Since the property is a detached/terraced house with full ownership and no indication of being part of a VvE, there are no VvE service fees.
Oa Reserve Fund
There is no owners association for this property, so a reserve fund is not applicable.
Oa Maintenance Plan
A maintenance plan is a document typically for a VvE. As this single-family home is not part of a VvE, such a plan would not exist for the building.
Oa Buildings Insurance
Building insurance is the owner's responsibility for this type of property. There is no VvE that would manage a collective building insurance.
Other Rules
The text mentions an 'ouderdomsclausule' (age clause) is applicable, which is a common contractual rule in Dutch real estate for older properties (built in 1972). There are no other specific rules listed.
Safety & Accessibility
Elevator
The property is a 3-story terraced house built in 1972. No elevator is mentioned or expected for this type of dwelling.
Private Entrance
The listing describes a front yard (voortuin) with access to the entrance hall (entreehal), which is standard for a terraced house and indicates a private entrance.
Automatic Gate
There is no mention of an automatic gate, and the property features a standard front yard and open public parking.
Gated Community
The property is located in a regular residential neighborhood (woonwijk) with open public parking, not a gated community.

Utilities & Technical
Washing Machine
The listing mentions 'opstelplaatsen voor de wasmachine' (setup location/place for washing machine) on the landing, which typically refers to plumbing and space connections rather than the appliance itself being included in the sale.

The washing machine and dryer are located on the 'overloop' (landing/hallway) of the second floor, not in a dedicated separate laundry room.
