    Frequently asked questions

    • How can I increase the value of my house before selling?

      You can increase the value of your house by renovating key areas like the kitchen and bathroom or applying a fresh coat of paint. Additionally, try improving the energy label. Keeping the house tidy and minimizing personal belongings can also help. Ensure a great first impression with a well-maintained garden and entrance. Find more tips here.

    • What is the best time of year to sell my house?

      The best time to sell your house varies by region, but generally, spring (March to June) is ideal due to the increased number of buyers and favorable weather, which makes for more attractive photos and viewings.

    • Do I need an energy label before selling my house?

      Yes, in the Netherlands, it is mandatory to have a valid energy label when selling or even renting out your house. Not having one can result in a fine of 435 euros. Find more information about energy labels here.

    • What happens to my mortgage when I sell my house?

      When you sell your house, you use the proceeds from the sale to first pay off the remaining mortgage debt. If there is any surplus after paying off the mortgage, you receive this amount. If the sale proceeds are lower than the mortgage debt, you will be left with a residual debt, which may require arranging with the mortgage lender. Keep in mind that you often need a notary and an appraisal for this. More information about surplus value can be found here.

    • What are the legal requirements when selling a house?

      When selling a house, the legal requirements include having a valid energy label, fulfilling the duty to inform the buyer about the condition of the house and any defects, and correctly handling the transfer of ownership at the notary, including signing the purchase agreement and the deed of transfer. Additionally, the sale must be registered with the Land Registry. Read more about selling your house here.
