Hi all,
I've got the opportunity to work in the Netherlands again and move my family over from the UK. I haven't talked to the company that has offered me a position about money as yet, and I wanted to know what a reasonable requirement (pre-tax) would be for a comfortable 3 bed apartment in the Hague/Delft/Leiden areas and considering it would be just be myself working and we'd send our two girls to a nearby International school which would cost probably EUR 5-6k each per year.
We'd probably be looking to spend around EUR 2k per month on rent, plus would need an average car.

Last time I was working in NL it was more than twenty years ago, when I was young, free and single living it up in Amsterdam, so I expect it's changed a bit!
