The Added Value of a Purchase Broker in a Competitive Housing Market

It seems that on January 1, everyone decided to buy a house! Therefore, finding a suitable home in a tense housing market can be a challenge. Buyers face competition, (too) fast transactions and rising prices. In this hectic environment, the expertise of a buying agent can be invaluable.

We, Monique Verhoef and Brigitte Kok, have been working in real estate since the late 1990s. In the past years we have gained a lot of experience and have experienced the different markets. As a buying agent we act as an experienced guide, negotiator and above all protector of the buyer’s interests.

Why work with a NVM buying agent?

Access to exclusive listings:
An NVM buying agent has access to homes that have not yet appeared on the market. This can be crucial in a market where buyers need to move quickly to maintain a competitive edge.

Market insight and advice:
Purchase brokers have deep insight into the local market. They establish objective value, analyze trends, price developments and the supply of homes to help their clients make informed decisions. In a hectic market, where prices can rise quickly and competition is high, this insight is invaluable. Purchase brokers can advise their clients on market values of homes, strategies for negotiation, which properties offer the best value for budget versus needs and most importantly what a promising offer might be.
