Dutch selling agent: successfully sell your home with OSM
Selling your home is more than just a sign in the garden. It requires strategy, presentation and negotiating power. At Ons Soort Makelaars we combine local market knowledge with professional sales techniques to achieve the best price for your property. Our personal approach ensures you don't get lost in the selling process. From the first valuation to the key handover: we stand beside you.
Our selling strategy
A successful sale starts with a well-thought-out strategy. We deploy all means to present your property optimally and achieve the highest price.
Market analysis & valuation
We start with a thorough market analysis. Based on recent comparable sales, the property's condition and current market conditions we set a realistic and optimal asking price. Too high scares buyers off, too low costs you money. We find the right balance.
Professional presentation
First impressions count. We arrange professional photography, attractive property copy and if desired a floor plan and virtual tour. Your property is optimally presented on Funda, our website and social media.
Marketing & reach
Your property is broadly promoted via Funda, social media, our network and targeted marketing. We reach both active searchers and passive interested parties. Our national network of OSM agents significantly expands reach.
Organising viewings
We organise and conduct all viewings. Whether individual or open day, we ensure professional presentation and answer all questions from potential buyers.
Negotiation & sale
When bids come in, we negotiate on your behalf. With experience and tactics we pursue the highest price and best conditions. We advise on every bid.
Legal handling
After agreement we draft the purchase contract and guide you through to the notarial transfer. All legal aspects are carefully handled so you can transfer with peace of mind.
Tips for a successful home sale
Good preparation is half the work. A tidy and well-maintained home makes a better first impression, both in photos and at viewings. Small investments in styling and refreshing can make the difference between a fast sale and months of waiting.
Declutter & depersonalise
Remove excess items and personal belongings. Potential buyers must be able to imagine themselves in the space. A tidy home looks bigger and more inviting.
Small repairs
Fix leaky taps, loose door handles and paintwork. Small defects give buyers the impression of deferred maintenance and push the price down.
Improve energy label
A good energy label increases your home's value. Consider simple measures like draught strips, LED lighting and radiator foil.
