Looking for a new house? Hire a real estate agent!

Are you an expat from the United Kingdom, the United States, or another country and are you trying to find a new place to live in the Netherlands? Finding a good house at the right price can be quite a challenge these days. When you’re not completely familiar with the housing market in the Netherlands, it is even more difficult. That’s why you should definitely consider hiring a real estate agent who knows the ropes. Your chances of successfully buying a house will get much higher! 

Why hire a real estate agent? 

Everyone who has been hunting houses in the Netherlands in the past year will have experienced the same: extremely high demand and extremely high prices. Buying your dream house is not easy at the moment, so after all the setbacks you already encountered you can use all the help you can get. A real estate agent can be the answer. He’ll help you with questions like: 

• What is the real worth of a certain property? 

• What is the right bid? 

• Does the house have any defects? 

• Can you overbid if your equity can’t cover the amount? 

A real estate agent goes the extra mile 

If you hire a good real estate agent, you’ll have someone who goes the extra mile for you. For example, he or she can: 

• Perform a purchase price analysis for you; 

• Provide A-to-Z guidance on house viewings, ask the seller the right questions, and share professional advice; 

• Provide an expert construction inspector to assess the house; 

• Negotiate on your behalf to get the best purchasing price. 

• Prepare everything that is required for the transfer at the notary’s office.
