What does a real estate agent do in The Netherlands?
For this article we focus solely on estate agents on the selling side of the transaction.
Note: The involvement of an estate agent is not mandatory. There is no rule or regulation that prohibits you to sell a property yourself.
In almost 95% of the transactions a realtor is involved on the selling side of the transaction. Sellers in the Netherlands contract an estate agent, because it brings:
- Expertise on price setting and marketing
- Convenience with viewings and the legal hassle
- Trustworthiness in the eyes of potential buyers
The most important reason that people involve an estate agent, is 'Funda.nl'. It is the most popular housing website, but only estate agents can upload a house to the website. You as an individual can not.
