Without a shadow of a doubt, I couldn't recommend Aankoopmakelaar Amsterdam more. We were assisted on the process of purchasing a new apartment from start to finish by Ben Spronk. Ben went the extra mile with us, from the process of finding an apartment, placing a bid, finding a financial advisor and all the tips later for the move-in process. A top service for a very reasonable price. We couldn't be happier now with our new apartment and we would definitely request their services again if we ever find ourselves in the process of buying a new propriety.

We found a house we liked and panicked, we did not have a makelaar on call yet. Then we found Tabitha and she sorted us out, she helped us get everything set up in no time and in some sort of miracle way (in this housing market) helped us get the house we wanted, the first one we bid on. She even assisted us without overbidding too much and saved us money, would highly recommend talking to them if you consider getting a house, even if you are just in the concept phase. Better safe than sorry and know what you got.

Excellent service provided by Tabitha. As a first-time buyer, Tabitha helped me extremely well throughout the entire purchasing process. She is professional, clear, patient and fast in communication. In addition, Tabitha goes to great lengths to purchase the home. I am very satisfied with the purchasing process and I recommend Aankoopmakelaar Amsterdam to other buyers. Thank you for the good guidance Tabitha!

Buying a house in Amsterdam

Frequently asked questions

In negotiation with a bid?

If a bid has been made, negotiations haven’t started yet. That’s only the case when a contrabid has been made. First a seller has to choose doing business with you. That can depend on the fact if there are more interested candidates and the financial willingness of the buyer. If the selling agent states he will discuss your bid with the seller, you’re not in negotiations yet. The purchasing realtor has to actively let the seller know that he’s dealing with a potential good buyer.

First house visitor first of way during a negotiation?

Together with the seller the selling agent decides the way negotiations are made. A house visit doesn’t hold any claims. It’s completely without any obligations. It’s therefore advisable to ask your agent what your position is, should you have a serious interest in the house. This may prevent future disappointments. The same goes for an offer. An offer can be so low that the seller doesn’t feel the need to respond to it. So it’s important to make an offer that triggers negotiations. However, not too high. After all, you don’t want to overpay on your new house.

Bringing your own agent

The answer is ‘yes’. In that cast the selling agent knows that the process will transpire professionally, which will save him time. And as the purchasing realtor does a financial check the selling agent knows that chances are high the deal goes ahead once an agreement has been reached. So you know he will spend his time only on serious candidates. Besides that, an estate agent likes working with fellow professionals. Especially in the current market guidance from an estate agent is a huge benefit for you.

Raising the asking price during a negotiation

If the asking price is an invitation for making an offer, the seller can decide to alter the asking price, may it be lower or higher. If a proposition is made, involved parties make biddings back and forth, although this isn’t always the case. An estate agent may also choose the follow a different path. Only when the selling party accepts an offer, an agreement has been reached. On the other hand, if a seller makes a counterbid, the buyer can reach an agreement by accepting this offer. Should a potential buyer make a counterbid that deviates from the earlier bid made by the selling party, the previous bid of the selling party is voided. Also in the case when both parties have spoken about ‘coming closer together’, the seller can decide to raise his counterbid in the middle of the bidding process and/or lower his bid (from the buyers’ perspective). Probably not common practice for you, but Aankoopmakelaar Amsterdam knows its way around.

When am I a buyer?

A purchase isn’t final until agreement is reached on the price, the acceptance and possible dissolving terms and conditions. The law demands a so called written agreement. In other words: a purchase deed has to made, (in Amsterdam) mostly by a notary. The purchase deed has to include all things both parties agreed on orally. Furthermore a number of other agreements will be noted. For example the penalty clause. Such additional agreements only apply once the purchase deed is signed by both parties and the three days consideration time are over. Dissolving terms and conditions are very important. This is also a subject that both parties have to agree on during negotiations. A buyer has to handle this with care and has to act appropriately (according to the situation).
