Owning a home in Amsterdam started as a dream and has now become a reality thanks to Sake's excellent guidance and quick turnaround. There's a lot to take in when buying a (first) home, and Sake was incredibly helpful with all the questions I had.

I'm 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 the whole process go 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 explained every step clearly and thoroughly 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 house at a great price!

As an American living in the Netherlands, I was convinced that owning a home in Amsterdam was a distant dream, especially given the competitive market and my budget. I had almost given up on the idea of buying a home, believing it was simply unattainable—until I met Sake from HomeUp.

From the very beginning, Sake was not only knowledgeable and professional, but also incredibly supportive and reassuring. He took the time to understand my concerns and truly grasped what I was looking for in a home. Despite my initial doubts, he encouraged me to trust the process, and I’m so grateful that I did.

Thanks to Sake’s guidance, I am now a proud homeowner in Amsterdam—something I never thought possible as a millennial, especially in this market. His expertise and dedication turned what seemed like an impossible task into something not only achievable, but also smooth and stress-free.

If you’re looking to buy a home in the Netherlands, I wholeheartedly recommend Sake and HomeUp. He made my dream of owning a home a reality, and for that I will always be grateful.

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.
