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.

Buying a home in Haarlem? Obtain mortgage advice from Viisi
Regardless of whether you are a first-time buyer on the housing market or you are selling on, it is always advisable to obtain mortgage advice. At Viisi, we know what is happening on the Haarlem housing market and are thus able to offer you good advice. For example, did you know that:
- After Amsterdam, house prices rose fastest in Haarlem in recent years?
Most homes in Haarlem are sold within one to two weeks? - 50 per cent of homes sell for more than the asking price?
- The number of newly built homes is stagnating because there is hardly any more space in the city to build new homes? The few newly built homes that are available find an owner almost immediately.
In addition, you will find it a little harder to find a new home in Haarlem without a mortgage broker. Furthermore, Viisi is observing that people are buying homes in Haarlem without a financing arrangement clause more and more often. This can be beneficial for you in some cases, but as a buyer, you also run the risk of a penalty if your mortgage loan application is turned down and, as a result, you are unable to finance the home. Our mortgage advisors have a great deal of experience with all these issues. Would you like to know what you can expect? Then come to Viisi for mortgage advice in Haarlem. We look at your circumstances, needs, and preferences, and always give you suitable advice.
