From uncertainty to certainty
Making an offer without a financing condition is increasingly common. But certainly not without risk. Can't get the financing? Then you have to pay 10% of the purchase price. A serious chunk of money.

Why the starter certificate is for you

You can buy with a mortgage that gets you 100%. That's unique compared to insurers and other certificates.

More stories of first-time buyers who thought it was impossible to buy a home
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.
Great experience, Sake and Billy were incredibly helpful throughout the entire process, from the first meeting, where Sake explained to us how buying a house in the Netherlands works, to the signature at the end of the notary appointment for the key transfer.
They made a huge difference, especially in the bidding process, where we were able to be competitive and eventually secure our new apartment in Almere!
Thank you so much to Sake, Billy and the whole HomeUp team for the great support! I would recommend them to anyone interested in buying a home/apartment.
Keep up the good work, guys!
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!
We were fortunate to meet Sake during our home search.
From day one, he was very helpful, answered all our questions (and we had many!), and communicated clearly with us.
Their service was excellent, from searching for a house to signing the contract, he assisted us the entire time. Once we found our dream home, he took the initiative to negotiate the price, which was crucial in our process. Without him, we probably wouldn't have had the house we loved so much.
Their knowledge of the Dutch real estate market is impressive, which was essential for us expats. He reviewed all the documents and answered all our questions. This made us feel very comfortable during the whole process.
We felt guided and supported throughout the entire process and would highly recommend his services to anyone who wants to realize their dream of buying a home in the Netherlands!
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!
From start to finish everything was well taken care of.Thank you gentlemen !!!!
Sake helped and guided me incredibly well with the purchase of my first home! He is proactive, knowledgeable, involved and always quick and accessible. I can highly recommend him!
Very professional help. Sake supported me in all aspects of the house purchase.
Very pragmatic and does everything possible to make the process go smoothly for you.
Homeup guided the sale of our apartment. Mr. Brouwer of homeup was knowledgeable and quick to answer any questions and provide the necessary information. Appointments were kept punctually. In other words, I highly recommend this real estate agent.
Frequently asked questions about our starter mortgage certificate
Questions, doubts, vague real estate jargon: when you're about to buy a house, there's quite a lot on your mind. In addition to personal advice at every step of the process, we answer all your pressing (as well as less pressing) questions.
A big well-known bank is already taking a look at your finances before you go on the market. As soon as we find your dream home, they immediately give the green light. So the stress of getting your mortgage done disappears like snow in the sun.
You do this by creating a free search profile with us and then scheduling a phone interview with us. In that meeting we will discover together whether the certificate suits your needs and situation.
Normally you pay a penalty of 10% of the purchase price if for some reason you can't get your mortgage done. With the mortgage certificate, this is not the case. Your mortgage is pre-approved. All that's left is an accepted offer.
If you want to be one step ahead of the competition when making an offer, this mortgage certificate is really for you. No more worrying about mortgage stress. With certainty, you can make an offer without the reservation of financing. This significantly increases your chances of success.
Unlimited!
Our certificate is valid for a maximum of 6 months.
Of course, your financial situation could change. Should that be the case, schedule a new meeting with Nobel Mortgages to find out what this means for the mortgage certificate. This is applicable, for example, if you get a salary increase, because that means more borrowing capacity. We can then increase the amount of the mortgage certificate as well.
