Why choose a real estate agent?
Real estate agents exist for a reason. Buying or selling a home isn't something you do every day, and there's a lot involved. An agent is anything but superfluous, handling many tasks for you.
An agent manages tasks such as:
- Finding suitable homes (even before they're listed on Funda)
- Listing your property on Funda (only agents can do this)
- Conducting viewings and negotiations
- Arranging and reviewing legal documents
And that's not all. Learn what a selling agent can handle for you and discover everything you need to know about selling your home. Or find out what a buying agent can do for you and what you need to know about buying a house.

Types of real estate agents
Real estate agents in the Netherlands may or may not be affiliated with a professional association. Most agents are members of NVM, VBO, or VastgoedPRO. A small portion operate independently, without affiliation.
The NVM is the leading association for real estate agents in the Netherlands, with about 4,400 members, followed by VBO with around 1,100 members. VastgoedPro is a professional organization with approximately 800 members.
Professional requirements for agents
Affiliated agents must meet various quality standards, including:
- Strict educational requirements
- Adherence to ethical guidelines
- Holding a specific real estate diploma (SVMNIVO diploma)
Potential higher costs
Starting an NVM agency involves a more extensive procedure than with VBO and VastgoedPro. Therefore, you often pay somewhat more for the services of an NVM agency compared to non-NVM agents.

The history of Enschede
The history of Enschede dates back to the early Middle Ages. The real development of Enschede only started in 1800.
This happened with the development of the textile industry. Between 1870 and 1900, the population of the city quintupled (x5). We rightly call Enschede the textile city of the Netherlands.
A less positive period for Enschede was World War II. Many Jews were arrested and deported in the city.
Later in the war in 1944, the city was also hit by bombings. This was not done by the Germans, but by the Allies who thought Enschede was a German city.
