I am a foreigner living in the Netherlands, and working with Sake as my real estate agent was an absolute game-changer. Making a big decision, like buying a house abroad, can be difficult, but he made sure the whole process went smoothly.

From the beginning, he took the time to understand my needs and concerns, especially given my unfamiliarity with the Dutch real estate market. He provided clear and comprehensive explanations of each step and was always available to answer my questions, no matter how small.

His expertise and knowledge of the local market were invaluable and definitely helped me secure a fantastic home at a great price!

Buying a house in Amsterdam is quite an experience. It took us 8 months and the support of Sake and his team was essential. We are very satisfied with their service.

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.

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!

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!

Frequently asked questions about mortgage advice

Do you have questions about mortgage advice? Find out the answers to the most frequently asked questions here.

What is mortgage advice?

Mortgage advice is a professional service where a mortgage broker helps you find the best mortgage for your situation. This includes analyzing your financial situation, understanding your needs and comparing different mortgage products.

What does mortgage advice cost?

The cost of mortgage advice can vary. Some advisors work with a flat rate, while others charge a percentage of the mortgage amount. It is important to discuss this in advance so you know exactly where you stand.

Is mortgage advice mandatory?

Mortgage advice is not required by law, but it can be very valuable. A mortgage is a big financial commitment, and professional advice can help you make a wise choice that suits you.

What happens during counseling?

During a mortgage consultation, the advisor will ask you questions about your financial situation, your future plans and your wishes. Based on this information, the advisor will recommend one or more mortgage options that suit you.

What types of mortgages are there?

There are different types of mortgages, such as the annuity mortgage, the linear mortgage and the no-repayment mortgage. Each type has its own characteristics and advantages, and the right choice depends on your individual situation and preferences.

How long will the counseling session take?

A mortgage consultation takes an average of one hour. This gives the advisor enough time to thoroughly understand your situation and give well-considered advice. If more time is needed, this is of course possible. The most important thing is that at the end of the conversation you have a clear picture of your options and that all your questions have been answered.
