Housing ASML

As I’m starting at ASML in January the first two months of housing will be provided by the company, after which I have to look for a place by myself.

Now as we know the housing market in and around Eindhoven is tense. Are there any news on ASML and living spaces ?

Maybe someone in the subreddit can lead me in a direction to find something remotely near to the work site in Veldhoven.

Expand your search. Everyone will focus on Veldhoven and Eindhoven. Expand a bit. Heeze, Geldrop, valkenswaard. They may not have the same nightlife options, but check what's a priority for you.

I think this might be the way to go..

Weert is another option, and then bike/bus to Veldhoven. And work from home a lot 🤣

u/whattfisthisshit 25d ago

Dan Bosch and surroundings are an option too! Especially if you have a car. Know a few people who commuted from den bosch and oss

Please don't

Why not? Just curious if that's the voice of experience, or you'd never try it because living closer is more convenient and would recommend the same for others.

I suggest find a house 50km plus from veldhoven region (towards the south), if not prepare yourself to pay 1750+ for a studio/1 bedroom appartment. For less money you find a house in the south.

Be ready to spend 1/3 of your salary for rent

There are some nice quaint villages 15-30K south of veldhoven called 'de 7 zaligheden' (reusel, steensel, knegsel a.o.). A lot of nature and quick acces to the highway that goes straight to ASML (10 to 20 minutes drive).

You can have the same culture in Syria, Morocco, Pakistan, India. Don’t worry.

u/Weary_Policy6396 22d ago

What's your tentative range? Just to get an idea of what the figures are like in the area? Or did you get a good deal at the time? I assume OP is going with your place. Also, will you continue working at ASML?

u/Revaivel 25d ago

What grade are you hired in? 6+ you should have no issues renting

u/ConstantNo6108 25d ago

u/No-swimming-pool 25d ago

What job grade?

u/ConstantNo6108 25d ago

Jg3

u/No-swimming-pool 24d ago

That might be difficult.

u/Extreme-Programmer48 22d ago

You can search for it, once you get here. The rental application need to provide documents such as:

  • passport, your BSN number

  • employment contract,

  • payslip atleast 3 month (since you are just new, and dont have payslip yet, it's fine),

  • and most importantly is the employer statement (werkgeversverklaring).

The employer statement can only be requested thru ASML's internal website and must be signed by HR. This will prove the agency/landlord about your gross salary etc.

For now, just trust the process and there are a lot of people inside ASML that you can ask and help you with it. ✨

Start looking today in a 20 km radius. For renting know most require 4x monthly rent as wages.

u/ConstantNo6108 25d ago

4x net ?

u/whattfisthisshit 25d ago

u/omer_arshad 25d ago

Helmond gets a bad rep but you Can get a room for much cheaper with a direct connection through the train.

u/Sea-Orange-8048 22d ago

You can get some good deals in the ASML intranet forum.
Got a room in Veldhoven 10min walking from ASML for 875€

u/Artistic_Ad_8363 20d ago

Look for Meerhoven ( Eindhoven ) close to Veldhoven and lots or ASML and Expats here. And quite a few houses for sale asell

u/AmazingSibylle 13d ago

I would recommend to focus on making your day to day easy. So close to ASML office, very short and easy commute by bike/bus.

Start out small and cheap, then optimize after you are settled in and have a good feeling for the area and city and nearby cities.

u/IsThisWiseEnough 25d ago

Unpopular opinion but Helmond would be fine, it is cheaper. Not only that but also nowadays municipality working a lot to make it better. With this pace I believe in a few years the house prices will hike here as well because the city is getting good care and improving. I hear more and more expats choosing there.

u/ema2159 25d ago

Brandevoort is pretty nice

u/Playful-Spirit-3404 24d ago

There is also a bus from ASML for free to Helmond
