You are looking for a buying agent Amsterdam, because “In Mokum I am rich and happy at the same time,” at least, if the lyrics of Johnny Jordaan from perhaps the most famous song about Amsterdam are to be believed. And, we 100% believe it does. I am Micha van den Bergh and my goal is to make you happy in Amsterdam too! I myself have lived in this beautiful city for more than 20 years and I would love to help you find your “happiness” in Amsterdam. With my passion, knowledge and commitment, this should definitely succeed!
You can buy a home without a buying agent, but especially in today’s housing market, you would do well to hire a buying agent. With viewings, you will almost always have to deal with a real estate agent. This broker always performs the role of sales broker at that time. He or she is engaged by the sellers to sell the home to the best of his or her ability. As a result, he or she will make every effort to arrange the highest possible price with the fewest possible conditions for the seller. The sales agent is required to tell you about the known defects of the home, but will always tell you in the nicest and most positive way possible.
When you have me with you as your buying agent, you can rely on my expertise. I give you a good and honest picture of what the condition of the property is. I pay attention to both structural and legal condition. Because, buying a home also involves maneuvering through paperwork and legal language. If you’ve ever seen a purchase agreement, I’m sure you understand what I mean. Think about things like duty to investigate and liability after purchasing property. Before the sale, you can still go either way; after that, you are legally stuck with it. You might imagine that a sales agent wouldn’t jump for joy if you brought a buying agent with you to the viewing; however, the opposite is true. In fact, a big advantage is that the home’s sales agent is very comfortable and often prefers it if the buyer has used a buying agent. This gives him a strong but professional opponent in negotiations.
