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!

Frequently asked questions about legal advice when buying a property

Do you have legal questions when buying a house? Here you will find the answers to the most frequently asked questions. We help you to clear all your doubts and uncertainties!

What is a purchase agreement and why is it important?

A purchase agreement is a legal document that sets out the agreements between the buyer and seller of a home. It is important because it protects the rights and obligations of both parties.

What are easements and how can they affect the purchase of my home?

Easements are rights that someone has on another person's plot. Consider, for example, the right of way. They can influence the sale of your home because they pass to the new owner.

What is a resolutive condition in a purchase agreement?

A resolutive condition is a condition in the purchase agreement that gives the buyer the right to terminate the agreement. This can be the case, for example, if the buyer does not complete the financing.

What is a cooling-off period and how does it work?

The cooling-off period is the period during which the buyer can terminate the purchase agreement without giving reasons. This period is legally set at three days after receiving the purchase agreement.

What happens at the notary during the transfer?

At the notary, the purchase agreement is converted into a notarial deed. This deed is registered in the Land Registry, making the transfer of ownership official.
