Buying a house here is different from what you’re used to
Overbidding is the norm
Asking prices are often just a starting point. Without local market knowledge, you risk overpaying — or losing out entirely because your bid was too low.
The seller’s agent doesn’t work for you
The listing agent (verkoopmakelaar) represents the seller’s interests, not yours. You need someone in your corner who negotiates for the best deal for you.
Complex legal & financial processes
From “ontbindende voorwaarden” to notary procedures and mortgage conditions — the Dutch buying process has many steps that can catch you off guard.
Hidden defects & risks
Structural issues, easements, zoning plans, or asbestos — without proper research, you might buy a home with costly surprises waiting around the corner. Full-service buying support
