This is how we keep the buying process transparent and fair.
Exclusive supply of houses
Here you can find houses that you won't find on Funda or other platforms.

Decide how to buy your first home
Exclusive homes at a fixed price
We actively look for homes for people who buy first. The best part? We make overbidding unnecessary. That's how we make buying a home feasible again.
Bidding from with priority for social tenants
Do you live in social housing and want to move to a house for sale? Then you get priority with us!
Direction set? Here's how you buy your first home with us
We take a different approach than traditional real estate agents. We actively search for homes to offer to new buyers on the housing market. For a fixed price. And with priority for first-time buyers.That way you don't have to overbid and buying your first home becomes feasible again.
Create a search profile
Let us know your housing preferences such as location, price range and housing type. Based on your housing requirements, we will automatically forward you suitable properties.
Your mortgage around before you look
Bidding without the reservation of financing? That's a big risk. If the sale does not go through, you pay a penalty of 10% of the purchase price.Together with our mortgage advisor and a well-known bank, we offer the mortgage certificate that gives you a guaranteed mortgage upfront.
Contact and house viewing
Housing match? We will contact you. At a time that suits you. So you can view the property.
Confirm the property
After the viewing, let us know if you want to buy the property. Yes? Then we will guide you through the follow-up process and ensure a stress-free purchase.
Unforgettable day!
It's done: the house is yours. Time to give it your own design. Enjoy your new life as a homeowner!
Purchase of an exclusive homeup property

We know the market and your struggles as a starter very well. If we start working for you as a buying agent, you will have priority over our exclusive offer of houses and we will also help you search through Funda and other platforms for a home that matches your living wishes.
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!!!!
How we help you buy a house as a starter
Most asked questions about buying a house
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.
How to buy a home as a starter
After researching your financial options and calculating your maximum mortgage, you will enter the market. Hiring an estate agent is a smart move if you are buying your first house. We help you find and buy your first (dream) house within your budget.
How does the process of buying a house work?
Create a search profile, view properties that suit you, confirm your interest in a property and be guided every step of the way.
What is the difference between your exclusive housing offerings and the houses on Funda?
HomeUp's exclusive housing offer consists of houses that you won't find on Funda or other platforms. Especially selected for starters looking for a house via homeup.
Do you also offer support in arranging a mortgage?
We specialize in selling houses. So we are not a mortgage broker ourselves, but we do work with licensed and reliable mortgage brokers who can arrange a mortgage for you.
What happens if there are multiple interested parties for the same property?
We only schedule a small number of viewings per property. That way we avoid having to disappoint people. Are there many interested parties? Then we let the seller choose or look at the date of registration. Whoever registered for the property first is the lucky one.
How can I update my search profile if my housing needs change?
You can always contact us to adjust your search profile or communicate your new housing needs to us.
