Advice

The search for the perfect home starts with summing up your needs and wishes. Is there a certain neighbourhood you want to live in? What kind of home are you looking for? How many bedrooms do you need? For these questions and many more regarding buying a house in the Netherlands our experienced brokers are standing-by to give you the help and advice needed. Brockhoff Makelaars is a certified Expat Broker. Once we have detailed your wishes , we can start house hunting.

Finding a new home

Our brokers are always well informed about the latest developments, concerning the real estate market. The broker often knows about properties that are coming up for sale, before the actual ‘for sale sign’ is on the property or a listing appears online. With this knowledge, your broker, can contact you when the house of your dreams comes on the market. Your brokers network is essential for giving you a major advantage over the other potential buyers in the market.

Viewings

Finding the house of your dreams is not a single viewing, you need to get familiar with the type of home available to you in the area of your choice! Our brokers can accompany you on these visits. During the viewing we will find out if the property matches your expectations and wishes. Our broker is also there to go over important matters concerning the house, and will advise a complementary inquiry, if necessary. In this way we will find out if there are any unexpected matters before an actual purchase occurs. When we find your ideal property we will start the negotiations on your behalf.

Negotiations

Negotiating is a craft and buying and selling houses is our business. We will advise you on the bidding strategy and together we will decide the best way to obtain your new home. Is the asking price reasonable? Is there a lot of competition? Do you want to move in within a short period? All these questions are important while negotiating. In short we will help you to purchase your new home under the most favourable conditions and for the best price.

Transfer of ownership

If all of the four steps above went to plan, then you’ve found your new home. Now we need to make sure that all the legal aspects of purchasing and becoming the owner of your new property are taken care of. In this region of the Netherlands we go to a public notary for a purchase contract and the deed of ownership. In the purchase contract all the agreements and obligations between buyer and vendor are stated. If necessary we can help you get in contact with a financial advisor and or an independent valuer for your mortgage application. After the terms and conditions in the purchase contract have expired and the mortgage or other finances are in place, the ownership of the property can be transferred. This is also done by the notary, and for non-Dutch speakers it is obligatory to have a translator present.
