    What does a real estate agent do?

    It's not mandatory to hire a real estate agent when buying or selling your home. You're always free to handle it yourself. However, there are several significant advantages to hiring an agent.

    An agent can assist you with:

    1. Finding suitable homes (even before they're listed on Funda)
    2. Listing your home on Funda (which requires an agent)
    3. Conducting viewings and negotiations
    4. Arranging and reviewing legal documents

    Our recommendations realtor offers

    On My Selling Agent, you get a much better deal with your agent. Agents on Mijn Verkoopmakelaar are never more expensive, and often cheaper than if you contact them yourself. You also get an immediate estimate of the sale proceeds and insight into whether the agents deliver on those estimates.

    Answer the questions to receive personalized proposals via email from agents in your area.

    Types of real estate agents

    There are several industry associations in the Netherlands. The largest is NVM, with 4,400 members, followed by VBO (1,100 members) and the professional organization VastgoedPro (800 members). Many agents on Mijn Verkoopmakelaar are affiliated with NVM, VBO, or VastgoedPro, while others operate completely independently.

    Requirements for NVM, VBO, and VastgoedPro

    • Agents must meet educational requirements and adhere to ethical standards
    • Agents can only join with a specific real estate diploma Due to these quality standards, affiliated agents might sometimes be slightly more expensive than non-affiliated agents.

    Frequently asked questions

    • Do I really need a real estate agent to sell or buy my house?

      No, you are not legally required to hire a real estate agent when buying or selling a house in the Netherlands. However, an agent is far from superfluous. An agent offers market knowledge, negotiation skills, and legal guidance, making the entire process smoother and quicker. Often, this expertise helps you easily recover the agent fees through a higher sale price or a lower purchase offer.

    • What is the difference between a buying agent and a selling agent?

      A buying agent represents the buyer, assisting in finding homes, negotiating the best purchase price and terms, and guiding the buying process. On the other hand, a selling agent works for the seller to market the property, negotiate the best sale price, and oversee the selling process.

    • Can I negotiate real estate agent fees?

      Yes, real estate agent fees are not fixed and are negotiable. If you find negotiating intimidating or unpleasant, you can request quotes from multiple agents to ensure you get the best deal. Mijn Verkoopmakelaar can assist you with this.

    • Should I choose an online real estate agent or a traditional one?

      Online real estate agents are typically cheaper than traditional ones. This is because you are responsible for tasks like taking photos and conducting viewings yourself. Online agents often charge a fixed, upfront fee. A traditional agent, on the other hand, handles almost everything for you, which comes at a higher cost. The choice is yours.
