We are at your service
Purchase & sale of houses for sale
Purchase:
Extended search:
Real estate agency BEN will be happy to assist you in the purchase of a new home. Make a non-binding appointment at our office to map out your housing needs together and find out what the possibilities are on the Amsterdam real estate market.
Through the NVM’s exchange system and our extensive network in Amsterdam real estate market, you will receive the new offers that match your search profile on a daily basis. We will arrange and accompany you to viewings, if the property is found we will analyse and research all relevant details, we will conduct the negotiations, and we will also be your support during the deed of sale and delivery to the notary. In short, we will be with you until you have the keys to your new home. This is the extensive buying process.
We do not use a standard commission rate. Every assignment is unique and we apply a customised commission rate per assignment.
One-off purchase assistance:
Perhaps you have already found your new home and only need a real estate agent for the negotiation phase? Then real estate agency BEN is also the right place for you. After a one-off visit to the property in question, we will map everything out for you and discuss with you our advice and the negotiation strategy to be followed.
For this shorter process, we charge a lower commission than for the entire purchase process.
Curious? Call our office to make a no-obligation appointment to view a property.
Residential & office leasing
Lettings:
Rental agency BEN regularly rents houses in the private sector on behalf of large professional clients. Rental assignments are also carried out by real estate agent BEN for private clients. Real estate agency BEN also knows how to deal with the necessary regulations and application of the permit required for letting on the basis of the ‘vacancy law’.
The rental process starts with the assessment and determination of the real rental price of the object to be let. Subsequently, the rental wishes of the client will be mapped out. In preparation, the property will be professionally photographed and a rental text will be drafted. We place the house to be let in the NVM exchange system and Funda. The house is also placed on Pararius, the largest rental website in the Netherlands which reaches many expats in particular. Besides the viewings and negotiations, we draw up the rental contracts and handle the final inspection.
Our brokerage fee is 1 month’s rent excluding VAT. This amount does not include professional photography and any English translation. Our rental assignments take place on the basis of exclusivity.
Renting:
Real estate agency BEN can keep a close eye on interesting residential properties for you in the NVM exchange system and on Pararius. We guide you in finding the ideal property, accompany you to viewings and conduct negotiations. Further advice on, for example, location, (international) schools and public transport are part of our extensive knowledge.
