How nice that you want to sell your home through us! We are happy to guide you through every step:
We will guide you through the entire process and ensure a smooth sale! This means that we advise you on received bids, negotiate the sales price and explain the drawn up purchase agreement. In addition, we are present at important inspections. Finally, we are also present at the transfer at the notary, so that you do not have to worry about anything.
Our real estate agent will visit you to determine the value of your home. We will look at various factors, such as: the location, the number of square meters, the content, the outdoor spaces, the structural condition and the finishing. In addition, the value is determined by means of an object comparison: what has recently been sold in the neighborhood? By combining this data with the expertise and market knowledge of the real estate agent, an accurate valuation is created.
Hiring a real estate agent offers several advantages. The biggest advantage is that your home will be placed on Funda, the most visited housing site in the Netherlands. In addition, the sales agent advises on the optimal sales price and helps with making the right sales decisions. With his or her knowledge and experience in the field of negotiations, the agent ensures a successful sales process and takes the legal and administrative tasks off your hands.
After signing the purchase agreement, the buyer has three working days to consider the purchase. During this period, the buyer can still cancel the purchase without giving a reason. This consideration period starts on the day after the buyer receives the signed purchase agreement. It gives the buyer the opportunity to calmly consider the decision.
The selling agent works on behalf of the seller and therefore represents his or her interests. This means that the agent can give you information about the property, but cannot represent your interests.
Do you want expert advice and guidance when buying a property? Then it is smart to engage your own purchasing agent. We are happy to help you with that!
In the case of a property that is sold freehold (v.o.n.), the seller pays the costs for the transfer. This means that you as a buyer do not have to pay transfer tax and notary costs for the transfer of ownership. Please note: the notary costs for taking out a mortgage are not included. These are for the account of the buyer. New-build properties are often offered freehold. We always let you know in advance which costs are for the seller and which you pay yourself, so that you are not faced with any surprises.
Om te weten of je een woning kunt betalen, is het belangrijk om je inkomen, uitgaven en eventuele schulden te bekijken. Gebruik online rekentools voor hypotheeklasten en vraag een hypotheekadviseur om te helpen bij het bepalen van je maximale hypotheek. Zorg ook voor voldoende eigen vermogen voor de aankoop en houd rekening met toekomstige veranderingen in je financiën.

We work with Move, a handy online environment in which you can follow everything related to the sale (or purchase) of a home.
This way you always have a clear overview and you know exactly where you stand!
The statuses indicate which phase the property is in:
Sold: The property has been definitively sold and is no longer available
Yes, that is allowed. Negotiations do not automatically mean that the house will be sold. The seller can therefore decide to continue with viewings, for example to see if there is more interest.
You can easily schedule a viewing via our website, via Funda or by phone. The first to make a request will be the first to be given the opportunity to schedule an appointment.
You are not officially in negotiation until the seller responds to your offer with a counteroffer. As long as the selling agent only indicates that he will discuss your offer with the seller, you are not yet in negotiation.
Yes, that is possible. The asking price is an invitation to make an offer, not a fixed price. During negotiations, the seller can choose to increase or decrease the price.
No, the asking price is only an invitation to negotiate. Even if you are the first to bid at or above the asking price, the seller is not obligated to accept your bid. The highest bid is not always the most attractive, the seller ultimately decides with whom he will negotiate further.
If you have bid on a property but have not become the buyer, you have the right to view the bid log. The bid log gives you insight into the other bids that have been placed on the same property. This way you know for what price the property was ultimately sold and under what conditions. The bid log is only released when the property is finally sold and is only released to the persons who have placed a bid for the property, including the bidder who purchased the property. Personal data of the bidder(s) are not shared in this process.
K.K. stands for buyer's costs. These are the legally required costs when purchasing a home, such as: notary costs, transfer tax, transfer deed and land registry rights. These costs are part of the total purchase price, but are not deductible for income tax. Only costs that are directly related to the financing of your home are.
No, the brokerage fee is not included in the buyer's costs. This is a separate cost item for the seller. The buyer's costs only include the costs that the government charges for the transfer of a home.
A free valuation is not the same as a home appraisal. During the free valuation, a real estate agent estimates the value of your home based on market developments and sales prices in the area. This is not official and cannot be used for a mortgage application. A valuation is necessary if you are going to buy a home. In order to obtain the mortgage or to make an adjustment to your current mortgage, a certified valuation report is required. There are costs associated with a valuation.
Before we visit you, our broker will conduct extensive research into the housing market in your area. We will look at the location of your home, the specific characteristics of your home and the price developments in your municipality. As an NVM broker, we have access to a national database with sales data of more than a million homes. Our broker will then visit you at home for a no-obligation consultation. We will discuss the market value and provide insight into your sales opportunities.
Curious about whether your home has increased in value? Invite one of our NVM brokers and we will be happy to help you!
No, the estimated value is not automatically the asking price. We determine the final asking price together, based on:
The asking price is strategically determined to take advantage of the best sales opportunities.
When selling a home, ‘buyer’s costs’ usually apply. This means that the buyer pays the notary costs and can therefore choose a notary for the transfer of ownership and mortgage deed. Sometimes another agreement is made in advance, in which the seller chooses the notary. This must then be clearly stated in the purchase agreement.
In most cases, the buyer pays the notary costs, because the home is sold at buyer's costs (k.k.). This also allows the buyer to choose the notary. Do you, as a seller, still want to select a notary yourself? Then you can agree with the buyer that you will pay the transfer costs. Please note: notary costs are not included in the 'buyer's costs' as standard.
A final inspection will take place before the transfer. Together with the buyer and the selling agent, you will walk through the house one more time to check everything. You will pay attention to:
The inspection is recorded on a form, which both buyer and seller sign. This prevents misunderstandings and ensures a clear transfer.
