Do you want to sell a house in Utrecht? Then it is important to do this with due care. When selling a house, you want to get the maximum result. We know everything about the Utrecht housing market and are experts in selling houses. We will gladly visit you at home to introduce ourselves and to explain how we work. During this conversation, we will also list all the required details of your house to determine the right asking price and realizable value.
We give well-substantiated advice on the asking price and the sales strategy that we can adopt. This is the most important step in the entire sales process. Determining the right value is one of the most essential factors for a successful sale. After that, we give a clear overview of the costs. As soon as you agree on the strategy and costs, our work really begins!
Before we put the house on the market, we first make the best possible presentation of your property. For the presentation of your house, we use a professional photographer to ensure that you get the best possible photos and plans of your house. We then create a representative sales brochure with appealing and catchy texts and photos, and include the special features of your house that are relevant for prospective buyers. After that, your house is listed online and the sale will start.
Now that the house is presented via all channels, the viewings can be scheduled. Our brokers will give the viewers a guided tour of the house and present it enthusiastically, as well as professionally and honestly, so that viewers get a sound idea of the property. After every viewing, we will contact you straight away to let you know how the viewers responded. When one of the viewers decides to put in an offer, the negotiations can start.
After reaching a verbal agreement, we will carefully draft the purchase agreement. When all parties have signed, the sale is concluded. Upon receipt of a copy of this agreement, the buyer still has a reflection period of 3 days. After this period (and the lapse of possible conditions precedent), the sale is irrevocable and the buyer needs to pay a security deposit or submit bank guarantee with the notary (10% of the purchase price).
On the agreed transfer date, we will first do a final inspection at the house with all parties present and when the buyer deems everything to be in order, you and our broker will go to the notary’s office. When the transfer deed is signed at the notary, you are no longer the owner of the house and you can hand over the keys.
We first used Waltmann (Rutger Kanters) when relocating to the Netherlands from abroad. Out of the agencies we were in contact with at this time, Rutger offered a flexibility and a service-minded attitude that made us choose Waltmann over the alternatives. Local market conditions and the specifics of buying a home in the Netherlands as a foreigner were easily explained to us, and Rutger understood our needs and wishes when helping us navigate through several properties on the market. In the end we ended up finding a place that ticked all the boxes and the transaction went smoothly. Further down the line, when it was time for us leave the Netherlands, Rutger again helped us with placing the property on the market. Again, with a very high level of service, support and efforts from Rutger’s and Waltmann’s side. Having both purchased and sold a property via Waltmann, we have experienced this as a serious company that understands the needs of the client and are truly willing to walk the extra mile if it is needed.
My broker asset on complete purchase process. He is always Accessible and guide me very well. I will refer him for my friends.
Waltmann estate agents helped us find a property. They have relevant market knowledge and our broker has advised and supported us in a very professional, pleasant but also involved way. We are very pleased with the role that the broker has played for us in the purchase process.
We have very good experiences with Waltmann. Communication is flawless and the advice is clear and sincere. In short, as far as we are concerned, a perfect cooperation, which has already led to a number of recommendations in our environment.
I am very satisfied with the service of Waltmann and Rutger (my broker) in particular. The contact was very easy and Rutger finally took a lot of work off my hands. Often had enough of two words, which was great because I had to sell my apartment from abroad. Has also negotiated excellently. All in all good price / quality and Rutger / Waltmann can recommend to anyone who is looking for an effective and reliable purchase / sales broker in Utrecht.
