Get your bearings in the housing market
Check current prices and bidding info with Walter Living
Use Walter Living for your house-hunt. This allows you to request up-to-the-minute price and bidding information on all properties. Is a property being offered at a very attractive price, or is the asking price far too high? Has it been sold before and come back onto the market again later? You’ll get to see it all!
Bidding and negotiating
Offer with certainty
An offer without a financing condition increases your likelihood of a successful bid. It is not without risks however, which is why Viisi, in collaboration with BNP Paribas, introduced the Offer with Certainty. After a thorough assessment, you will receive a certificate with a specific amount up to which your mortgage is pre-approved. You can make the offer while dropping the financing clause, making it much more attractive for the seller.
Legal guidance
During your search and after the purchase of your new home, you can make free use of the DAS legal helpline, which is useful for any legal questions surrounding the purchase, financing, transfer and renovation of your new home.
Are there any other questions on your mind? Your advisor is on standby.
Your personal advisor with Viisi is always available for questions during your search. If you need to act quickly, we’re there for you immediately!
Tailor-made mortgage advice
Tailored mortgage advice
When your bid has been accepted by the seller, you need to arrange a number of things. First of all the mortgage. During the consultation, you will discuss with us a number of things to make sure you make the right choices:
- How to structure the mortgage (repayments, fixing the interest, taxation)
- Which interests are available in the market, what are the differences in terms of monthly payments?
- Which mortgage conditions are important? And which lender offers the best deal for me?
- What are the processing times of mortgage lenders and where do I have the best chance on an smooth approval of the mortgage?
Insurance included
Advice on life insurance and other insurances is always included in our advice, without any additional fees. Because it is important to be confident about your financial situation regardless what happens in the future.
Need an appraiser or bank guarantee?
Look no further, because Viisi can also set that up for you. We work together with a number of knowledgeable partners, who offer good service levels and competitive rates.
A 40% faster processing rate for your mortgage
Viisi is unique in having our own team of lightning-fast and accurate mortgage underwriters. They check your documentation before sending it to the mortgage lender. You will know immediately if something is missing or when an additional document might be needed. This way, we make sure that mortgage applications from Viisi are approved 40% faster than average.
Do you have any further questions? Your Viisi advisor will be there all along until your mortgage has officially been approved. And after that as well!
Your home is financed!

When everything has been checked and approved, you will receive your final mortgage offer. All you need to do afterwards is sign, and your mortgage is done and dusted!
Congratulations! You can head over to the notary and pick up the keys to your house.

Why live in Amsterdam?
What really typifies the Amsterdam housing market is the large number of highly skilled first time buyers. As it happens, the city is home to several universities and colleges and there are many employment opportunities. Coupled with the vibrant character of the city, it is the ideal place for people to ‘stick around’ after their studies and eventually settle.
As such, demand for homes for sale is incredibly high in Amsterdam and each area and neighbourhood has its own characteristics and benefits. If you want luxury and liveliness, then a property in the canal district is obviously a good option. But of course, Amsterdam offers more than just canals. You could also choose to settle in the Pijp where there is an abundance to see and do, in Amsterdam West if you want to be hip, or across the River ‘t IJ (Amsterdam North) if you want something a little more quiet.

Mortgage advice in Amsterdam: sealed bids
It will certainly come as no surprise that viewings in a popular city like Amsterdam are in high demand and that bids in excess of the asking price are commonplace.

With our deep understanding of the Amsterdam housing market, we can guide you not only on the property value but also on other critical financial decisions should you opt for our mortgage advice.
And other matters if you choose to obtain mortgage advice from us.

Mortgage advice on making an offer with or without a resolutive condition in Amsterdam
Anyone currently looking for a home to buy in Amsterdam knows that offers are frequently made without a resolutive condition. Making an offer without this condition could be beneficial for you, but also poses a big risk. Because what do you do if your mortgage loan application is refused? As it happens, you may then have to pay 10% of the purchase price as a penalty. Are you prepared to take this risk? And would you even want to take this risk? We would be happy to advise you on this too.
