Transfer tax (overdrachtsbelasting) is a tax you pay in the Netherlands when purchasing a house or other real estate. The standard rates are 2% for primary residences and 10.4% for non-primary residences, such as second homes and vacation properties. There is an exemption for first-time buyers (aged 18-34) for homes up to €510,000, provided it is their first purchase and they will live in the property. The tax is usually paid at the notary during the transfer.

Working with Anna Smit made buying my apartment super easy and I saved a lot of money by not overbidding by too much. Great service and well worth the money 🙂

We recently purchased a house with the help of an Erik from aankoopmakelaar and we couldn't be happier with the experience. Erik was incredibly knowledgeable and always available to answer our questions and provide valuable insights. He took care of the entire process, making the buying journey smooth and hassle-free. Thank you once again for your exceptional service!
Erik Jan was fantastic, would highly recommend. He has had a lot of knowledge of the market and appears to know all the selling agents so is very insightful when it comes to the time to make a bid. Would highly recommend him and the company!
