We can highly recommend Sake from Homeup B.V.! His support was fantastic from the beginning. He took the time to understand our wants and needs for a new home and his communication was crystal clear throughout the process. Thanks to his ability to explain everything in an understandable way, we never felt lost or confused, even as expats who don't speak Dutch.

In the end, we won our dream home with a successful bid and we are convinced that this would not have been possible without his expertise. Not only did he secure the house, but he did it efficiently, making the process run smoothly and avoiding unnecessary delays.

The icing on the cake? Sake works with fair and honest prices. We are thrilled with our new home and thank Sake for his incredible service. If you are looking for a real estate agent who is helpful, communicative, competent and gets the best results, look no further! My husband and I will definitely recommend Sake to all of our close friends.

Within 2 months we had found our home! In terms of costs and benefits, HomeUp is an excellent choice. We were very clear about which package was most beneficial to us. Should (or when) we decide we need to switch, we will definitely choose HomeUp again.

Thanks!!!

As an American living in the Netherlands, I was convinced that owning a house in Amsterdam was a distant dream, especially given the competitive market and my budget. I had all but given up on the idea of buying a home, thinking it was simply unfeasible. Until I met Sake from HomeUp.

From the beginning, Sake was not only knowledgeable and professional, but also incredibly supportive and reassuring. He took the time to understand my concerns and understood what I was looking for in a home. Despite my initial doubts, he encouraged me to trust the process, and I am 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 made what seemed like an impossible task not only achievable, but smooth and stress-free.

If you want to buy a house in the Netherlands, I can highly recommend Sake and HomeUp. He made my dream of owning my own home a reality, and for that I will always be grateful!

A successful housing career for first-time buyers

Buying a home. Many first-timers want it, few succeed. You hear stories about the tight housing market, rising mortgage interest rates, hassles with banks and overbidding.

Stories that make you think: as a starter, how am I ever going to get in on this? And where should I start when I'm new to the housing market? We know those doubts. That's why we are changing the housing market. For buyers and sellers.

Why and how do we do that?
