Buy a House in Rotterdam

For homeowners planning a move

Plan the sale and purchase of your next home with attention to timing, documents and money.

Bram van Zijl

Start with your timeline

Place the intended sale date, room for a new purchase and moving period side by side. Allow time for viewings, finance, contracts and the notarial transfer.

Documents for your current home

Gather the purchase deed, mortgage and leasehold details, VvE papers and maintenance information. These documents help prepare the sale and show what to check in a new home.

Keep money available for the changeover

Leave room for overlapping costs, moving work, advice, inspection and small changes. Sale proceeds and a new mortgage do not always arrive on the same date.
