If you use us as your buying agent, you not only get priority on our unique housing offer, but also a free financial screening and mortgage certificate.

What do we offer as a buying agent?
This is how we make a difference for startups:
Legal and administrative assistance
Buying a house involves many legal documents. We make sure you don't get lost in the legal maze and help you understand everything so you can sign with confidence.
Priority on our exclusive fixed-price offer
Do you engage us as a buying agent? Then you get priority on our exclusive housing offer, with houses for fixed prices. This way you increase the chance of finding your dream house, without the stress of (over)bidding.
Objective and honest advice
We guide you with objective and honest advice. We will help you see the pros and cons, give you tips for sustainability and advise you on a strong offer.
Offer without reservation of financing
An experienced mortgage advisor will give you a clear picture of what you can borrow and the monthly costs associated with it, free of charge. That way, you can make an offer without any reservations about financing. That makes it more likely that you will be the buyer.
What does a buying agent actually do?
Purchase broker
Purchase brokers guide you from start to key when buying a house. For example, they help share potential houses, advise during the process, conduct negotiations and accompany you to viewings. On average, this costs about €4,000.
The homeup approach
We help you find and buy a home digitally. For only € 2,749, you get all the advice and guidance you need online. The only difference with other (more expensive) purchase brokers is that we do not accompany you to a viewing.
Self viewings
We believe that you yourself have the best sense of what you are looking for in a property. That's why we don't go along with viewings. That saves you a lot of money. But no worries: we will prepare you and give you tips on what to look for...,
Architectural report
With an architectural report, we can also always do additional research into the condition of the home you have your eye on. This way we can give you good advice, for example about the price and the possibilities of making the house more sustainable.
Online purchase guidance so you buy a house faster
We know the market and your struggles as a starter very well. If we start working for you as a purchase broker, you will have priority on our exclusive housing offer and we will also help you search through Funda and other platforms for a home that suits your living requirements.
And the best part: with our mortgage certificate you are guaranteed a mortgage. So you have your mortgage even before your search begins.
More stories of first-time buyers who thought it was impossible to buy a home
I had an excellent experience with Sake!
From our first meeting to receiving the house keys, the entire process took less than a month - an incredibly quick and smooth process. Sake was friendly, helpful and professional throughout the process, making me feel supported every step of the way.
I especially appreciated his approach, giving me the freedom to view the house at my own pace and on my own schedule. That made the process comfortable and stress-free. When I was ready, he took over the negotiations and closing seamlessly, making a fair deal. His expertise and efficiency made all the difference.
Thank you, Sake, for your excellent service! Highly recommended.
Super nice contact with Billy and Sake!
Thank you to Sake for helping us find our apartment. His market knowledge and patience allowed us to go through the process with confidence. When we finally found the right apartment, Sake negotiated with the owner to get the best possible deal for us. The communication was always friendly and the process went smoothly thanks to his approach and responsiveness. Moreover, the rates charged by homeup are more than reasonable considering the amount of work involved. Thank you for your support throughout the process, up to the final signing at the notary last week!
From start to finish everything was well taken care of.Thank you gentlemen !!!!
We recently purchased a home through Home UP and it really went flawlessly. Billy's clear explanations and honesty allowed us to know immediately what we needed to consider, what costs would be incurred and allowed us, as first-time buyers, to learn what it is like to buy a home. Billy was always easy to reach and responded directly and clearly which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Thanks to Home UP we were able to make the start we were so looking forward to and because of their concept we as buyers did not have to worry that someone would outbid us far beyond our budget.

Sake from HomeUp helped me fantastically. What seemed impossible became a reality: buying a house in the neighborhood where I grew up. Sake is knowledgeable, quick, and honest. Thank you!
Because of Sake's great help we were able to buy our dream house in Utrecht! He was always available for questions and thought along with us. Definitely recommended!
I worked with Sake on the purchase of my first apartment here in Almere. I think it was a tremendously effortless process for me because everything was so well taken care of. Sake is a great real estate agent and can highly recommend him, especially to new buyers.
