Manon Vermeulen, 33, has been on a house-hunting journey in Zwijndrecht for over a year and a half. Despite being one of the cheapest municipalities in the Netherlands, Vermeulen struggles to find available properties for purchase, leading to a frustrating experience. She shares, "It feels conflicting to occupy a social rental property when my income exceeds the eligibility threshold."
Vermeulen faces additional challenges in her search as she owns a motorcycle and requires space to park it on her property. This specific need further complicates her quest for a suitable home.
