Step 2: Finding a property
When looking for the ideal residence, there are essentially two possibilities:
- You can conduct your own searches on specialized websites like Funda or Pararius and schedule your own appointments.
- You make immediate contact with a Vivian van Loo, We advise you to do this because she has access to an intranet where goods are available before they are displayed on the major search websites. Vivian will alert you to any homes that meet your requirements based on your profile. She schedules the appointments and gives you the complete service for each item you want to see.
Step 3: Making a house purchase and bid
The most obvious choice is to haggle over the property’s price. To do this, you must be aware of your spending cap and the home’s estimated value. After deciding on your range of options, present the sales broker with a starting bid. This can be done verbally, in writing, via email, or occasionally even through the sales broker’s website. Always include your bid in an email so you have it in plain text.
If you’re fortunate, your offer will be approved right away. However, the seller typically presents a counter offer. You are now engaged in negotiation. It may take a few days for the parties to reach an understanding regarding the terms and price of the house purchase (or it is clear that they cannot come to an agreement).
Note: The seller should be drawn to your starting bid if it’s intriguing enough. However, it shouldn’t be so low that you are unable to bargain. You can agree on a price and other terms in addition to it. Consider resolutive criteria like a finance reservation, an inspection reservation, the transfer date, or the expense of upkeep and repair.
Step 4: Completing your mortgage application
Is the mortgage advice to your entire satisfaction? After that, the advisor will begin the application process for the mortgage offer.
You review the quotation with the advisor as soon as it is received so that you are aware of its contents. Following the offer’s signature, begin gathering the necessary mortgage documents. The advisor and the bank come to an agreement on the signed mortgage offer and the paperwork.
The bank must then thoroughly accept your application, which will take some time. Patience….
Step 5: Taking ownership at the notary
In the Netherlands, it is illegal to transfer a home’s ownership without first hiring a civil-law notary.
The notary under civil law is impartial.
You can learn more about his role by visiting http://www.knb.nl/english.
What we handle: – In the majority of regions, we have agreements with civil-law notary firms governing the service provided to our clients, English-language communication, and the fees levied by the civil-law notary.
- We have agreements with interpreters who are knowledgeable about the procedures the civil-law notary uses to transfer real estate titles.
- On behalf of our clients, we verify the notary’s statement of completion.
When the (provisional) contract of sale is signed and during the transfer of title procedure, if necessary, we will be present.
What the civil law notary handles: • He drafts the purchase agreement (this can also be done by the estate agent or another party).
• He drafts the home’s deed of delivery.
• He drafts the note document.
• He has the information entered in the open registries.
• He conducts a survey (to establish, for example, whether the vendor is entitled to sell, whether the home is subject to an attachment order, etc.).
• He handles the transfer and payment of funds.
Make an appointment at any of our offices at your convenience.
