How can a buyer’s agent help you?
Method
Step 1: Orientation on the housing market
The first step in the process is to orient yourself on the housing market, which can be challenging in a dynamic city like Amsterdam. This is where the buying agents from Aankoopmakelaar Amsterdam and their advanced home finder tool come into play. This innovative tool gives you direct access to the latest properties, often before they are listed online. With the guidance of our experienced buying agents, you can act quickly to find a suitable property. You may view a home yourself initially, but we can also accompany you right from the start.
Step 2: Second house visit
The second viewing is always done together with us, Aankoopmakelaar Amsterdam. We arrange this follow-up visit to your (potential) new home alongside the seller’s agent. After this viewing, we share our findings and provide a professional value estimate for the property.
Step 3: Professional negotiations
Aankoopmakelaar Amsterdam specializes in buying houses and flats in the Amsterdam region. We strive to secure the lowest possible price and the best terms for you. Our negotiations are based on detailed information from the seller’s agent and our independent research. Throughout the process, we keep you informed of all developments.
Once an agreement is reached, a verbal purchase agreement is established. While this is not yet legally binding, it allows conditions—such as a structural survey—to come into effect. We handle these arrangements for you.
Step 4: Notary choice and purchase agreement
As the buyer, you select the notary who will oversee the transfer of your new home. We can advise you on this decision and recommend our trusted notary, known for excellent service at competitive rates. At this stage, a written purchase agreement is drafted. All previous agreements are recorded by the notary and thoroughly reviewed for accuracy. After signing, a three-day cooling-off period begins (applicable for self-occupied homes).
Step 5: Appraisal report and mortgage advice
While we cannot perform the property valuation required for financing, we can refer you to an expert, independent appraiser. Additionally, for financing, we recommend seeking independent mortgage advice. Our mortgage advisors offer no-obligation, tailored guidance to assist you in making informed decisions.
Step 6: Final house inspection
Before signing the deed of transfer at the notary, a final inspection of the property is crucial. This ensures the property remains in the same condition as during the purchase. We coordinate this appointment and accompany you to perform a thorough inspection.
Step 7: Delivery at the notary office
Following the final inspection, the deed of transfer is signed at the notary. We are present to review the transfer deed and settlement statement, ensuring accuracy and transparency.
Step 8: Congratulations!
You receive the keys and officially become the proud owner of your new home! If you have further questions or appreciate our continued support, we are always here to help.
Congratulations and welcome home!
