The digitalisation of real estate is accelerating. More and more parties want to demonstrate that they take digital quality seriously. But what exactly is IT-label, and who can join? The short answer is: yes, anyone can register, but not without an assessment. IT-label stands for quality and reliability.
Open to the Market, but Not Without Commitment
IT-label is accessible to a wide range of professionals. Think of real estate investors, landlords, estate agents, property advisors, IT companies, installers, project developers and building managers. All of these parties can play a role in improving digital real estate quality. View our partners page for an overview of existing partners.
But registration alone is not sufficient to use the label. IT-label is not a casual badge that anyone can simply display. It is a quality network that derives its value from the standard it upholds.
"IT-label is not a casual badge. It is a quality network for professionals who take digital real estate standards seriously and demonstrably act accordingly."
First: the Assessment Process
Before you may use the IT-label, you go through an assessment process. This examines your involvement in digital real estate quality, your level of knowledge and expertise, your professional working methods and your commitment to transparency and quality improvement.
This process ensures that the label retains its value. Want to know more about how the assessment process works? Or do you have questions? Visit our frequently asked questions page.
Annual Membership as a Certified Partner
Certified Partner membership is valid per year. This means you renew your registration annually, remain actively involved in the network and continue to meet the quality criteria set by IT-label. This annual nature guarantees that all partners in the network remain current and relevant.

Joining IT-label offers three core benefits. First, you become part of a larger network of professionals who together set the standard for digital real estate quality. Second, the label increases trust among consumers and tenants: they know you meet demonstrable quality requirements. Third, it provides a strategic advantage in an increasingly digital market.
For property owners, this is particularly relevant: a certified partner helps you increase the value of your real estate by making digital quality demonstrable.
Use of the IT-label
You may only use the IT-label when you are officially registered with IT-label, have successfully completed the assessment process and your membership is active. Unauthorised use of the IT-label is not permitted and is actively enforced.
"Becoming a Certified Partner requires assessment and commitment. But those who take the step benefit from increased market trust and access to a growing network of digital real estate professionals."
