Q/01Which platforms does it monitor?
The script monitors Funda.nl and Pararius.com — the two largest Dutch rental platforms. You can enable one or both simultaneously.
Q/02Can I filter by price, size, and property type?
Yes. You can set a maximum monthly rent, minimum surface area (m²), minimum number of rooms, furnishing preference (unfurnished, upholstered, or furnished), and property type (apartment, house, studio, or room). All filters are optional.
Q/03Can I monitor multiple cities at once?
Yes. Enter multiple city names separated by commas and the script will monitor all of them simultaneously.
Q/04How quickly does it notify me?
You get a desktop notification the moment a new listing matching your criteria appears — typically within seconds of it going live on the platform.
Q/05Is this script free?
Yes. The Dutch Rental Monitor is free. The Cereal desktop app is also free — always.
