Would you like to receive the highest possible revenue when selling your house in the Netherlands? Working with a professional real estate agent can make that happen. An experienced real estate agent will help you advertise and promote your home to the right target audience. We will elaborate why it is so important to work together with a real estate agent. 

Why sell your property using a sales broker?

Research shows that a full service broker achieves an average of 5% higher revenue than an internet or part-time broker. Some think not using a real estate agent will save them money but numbers show that 85% of the houses are sold by real estate agents. Hereby we can conclude that real estate agents offer knowledge and experience to the process which makes the sale of a property easier and successful for both parties.
