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.

We came to Sake on the recommendation of good friends, after hearing their enthusiastic stories about him. And rightly so: within a short time we too were successful in the search for our new house!

Since then we have already recommended Sake to three friends and they too have now found a home.What is so great about Sake is that he always communicates quickly and clearly. He takes care of everything and takes you by the hand during the whole buying process.

In addition, he has a fantastic network in Amsterdam, which opens many doors. In short: if you are looking for a purchase broker who is decisive, has a large network and above all is pleasant to work with, definitely call Sake!

Super nice and well advised by Sake from homeup. As starters very inexperienced in the housing market and everything that comes with it, but Sake helped us well and was always quick to act. No question was too crazy. I would definitely recommend homeup as a buying agent.

We bought our house with Sake's help. It couldn't have been any quicker. We had met him in the morning, had a viewing in the afternoon, made an offer and the next day it was accepted.

Sake made sure the process was effortless. He helped us every step of the way and arranged everything (he put us in touch with a mortgage broker, a building inspection, a notary, etc.).

Absolutely worth the investment. Highly recommended!

Oh, and at the end he gave us a bottle of champagne and a handy checklist of the next steps after the key transfer.

Sake helped us tremendously! Without his expertise and commitment, finding a house that perfectly matched our wishes and budget would have been much more difficult and would have taken much more time. We are very grateful for his help and the fact that we could always come to him with our questions. He actively thought along, gave honest advice and was always ready when needed. Really great!

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.
