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 € 2,999, 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.

It was a pleasant experience of interacting with homeup. The process was efficient, communication-easy and expat-friendly.

Sake from Homeup was incredibly helpful and provided excellent advice. As first-time buyers, we were quite inexperienced with the housing market and everything that comes with it, but Sake helped us tremendously and was always quick to respond. No question was too much trouble. I definitely recommend Homeup as a buyer's agent.

We highly recommend Sake from Homeup B.V.! His support was fantastic from the start. He took the time to understand our wishes and needs for a new home, and his communication was crystal clear throughout the entire process. Thanks to his ability to explain everything clearly, we never felt lost or confused, even as expats who don't speak Dutch. Ultimately, we won our dream home with a successful bid, and we're convinced it wouldn't have been possible without his expertise. He not only secured the house, but he also did it efficiently, making the process smooth and avoiding unnecessary delays. The icing on the cake? Sake offers honest and fair prices. We are thrilled with our new home and thank Sake for his incredible service. If you're looking for a helpful, communicative, and competent real estate agent who achieves the best results, look no further! My husband and I will definitely recommend Sake to all our close friends.

Being taken care of from start to finish.It started with a pleasant telephone conversation, nice explanation and clarity from both sides whether we wanted to do business with each other. It ended with the sale of our home to a couple who are very happy with the purchase.What was very pleasant for us was the open communication, even when we had to ask for a one-month postponement, this was possible.I recommend talking to them and seeing if the platform suits you.Thanks Sake!
