Buying a house?

Please leave your information here, we will contact you as soon as possible to make an appointment.

    Are you working in the Netherlands and have you decided to buy a house in Utrecht or its surrounding area? Excellent decision – with the current low interest rates, buying is often a cheaper option than renting. As the applicable laws and regulations in the Netherlands probably differ from those in your country, buying a house can be a complicated process. Naturally, the Utrecht housing market holds no secrets for our real estate agents. They will be more than happy to help you find and purchase a suitable residence in or around Utrecht.

    How to buy a house in The Netherlands

    Financial options expats

    Financial options

    There are no formal restrictions for non-Dutch citizens who want to buy a property in the Netherlands or apply for a Dutch mortgage. Even so, there are certain circumstances in which the mortgage lender may want to examine your personal and financial situation. Our mortgage advisors know the conditions you have to meet and give insight into your financial options. When all this is clear and you know the mortgage amount you can take out, the search for a house in the Utrecht region can begin.

    Buying a house

    Housing requirements

    After going through your wish list and requirements, the search for your new home begins. The housing market in the Netherlands is overheated, particularly in large cities like Utrecht, meaning that houses are sold quickly. We have prior insight into which homes will come on the market so we can schedule a viewing even before the property is listed online. We make a selection of what's on offer based on your wishes and requirements and alert you of any interesting property.

    Viewings and comparing

    Viewings and comparing

    When we have found a house that meets your wishes, we will accompany you during the viewing. We assess how the property has been maintained and check whether the asking price is realistic. The vendor’s broker is generally present during these viewings as well. This broker serves the interests of the vendor and will try to realise the highest price, which is another reason why it is important that we come along with you.

    The vendor's broker draws up the purchase agreement. We will then check the purchase agreement and discuss all its aspects with you, after which you can sign the document. After the agreement has also been signed by the vendor, you still have a three-day reflection period.

    Financing

    Financing

    If you need to take out a mortgage to buy a house, the mortgage advisor steps in to find the most suitable option for you. De Hypotheekshop Utrecht can help you find a mortgage with the most optimal conditions. De Hypotheekshop Utrecht is entirely independent, so its advisors can compare mortgages from almost all providers and help you find the options and solutions that fit your needs and plans for the future.
    Transfer

    Transfer

    The day of the transfer of the deed starts with a final inspection of the property in the presence of the vendor and yourself. When everything is in order, we all meet up at the notary’s office where the transfer deed is signed and you become the owner of your new house. The vendor will then also hand over all the keys.
