The largest buying agent for first-time buyers
Could you use some help in the search for your first home of your own? 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. This allows you to move quickly and increases your chances on the housing market.

What do we offer as a buying agent?
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 € 2,999, 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.
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 from starters who thought it was impossible
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.
Having Sake and Billy by my side during the purchase of my first home was a huge help. They really went above and beyond to answer all my questions and made me feel at ease throughout the entire process.
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!
Last month, we secured our first home in Amsterdam with the help of Sake from Homeup. The process was incredibly smooth and enjoyable, and the support throughout worked perfectly for us. We were able to ask all our questions, and they provided helpful, proactive advice. We've now moved into our new home (so happy!), and we're incredibly grateful to Homeup for their excellent guidance. Highly recommended for any first-time buyer!
Fantastic experience!! I highly recommend it. I worked with Billy to buy my first apartment. He understood all my preferences and provided a comprehensive list of options, which helped me buy the apartment I loved. Billy guided me throughout the entire process and patiently answered all my questions. He also helped me with translations (from Dutch to English) of key parts of the documents and made sure everything went according to plan. Thank you for the exceptional service!
Thanks to Billy from Homeup, my apartment sold very quickly (within 3 weeks). He approached me and wanted to give this selling method a try. I haven't regretted it for a moment. Billy is very dedicated, honest, thorough, easily accessible, and does what he says. In short, a highly skilled and reliable real estate agent. I really appreciate that Homeup is committed to first-time buyers, and it's great that the viewings are taken seriously because they are already known to Homeup and have their finances screened beforehand. This allows for a quick sale/purchase. And that's exactly how it went! I had a very positive experience working with him and recommend Homeup and this selling method to everyone.
Sake from Homeup helped me in a way that far exceeded my expectations. Thanks to his fast, clear, and personal approach, I found my first home in no time, something that probably wouldn't have happened without Homeup. He understood exactly what I was looking for and was always there for me, even while he was on vacation! His guidance throughout the entire process was excellent: clear, smooth, and without fuss. As a first-time buyer, I felt truly heard and supported. I highly recommend Homeup to anyone looking for a real estate agent who truly thinks along with you and fights for you!
I highly recommend HomeUp to anyone looking for a reliable real estate agency! Sake made the homebuying process smooth and stress-free, guiding me every step of the way. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, I found the perfect house at a great price.
Everything was well organised from start to finish. Thank you gentlemen!!!!
