Selling Your Home in the Netherlands
·OnlineOnlineDutch house prices rose around 8.5% nationally in 2025, according to De Nederlandsche Bank, and homes are selling in under five weeks on average. Market conditions are broadly in your favor as a seller.
That said, the decisions that most affect your outcome as an expat seller rarely come down to the market. They are about your mortgage terms, your tax position, and your personal timeline. In this webinar, we’ll cover everything you should sort out before you set a date.

Buying a Newly Built Home in the Netherlands
·OnlineOnlineBuying a newly built home in the Netherlands can be exciting, but the process is very different from buying an existing property. From registration and reservation agreements to construction schedules, staged payments, legal contracts, and delivery inspections, there are several steps that can be unfamiliar, especially for expats.
In this webinar, we will explain how buying a newly built home works in the Netherlands, what to expect from the current market, and how to prepare before committing to a new-build project. We will also cover the financial, legal, and practical details that buyers should understand before signing.
The webinar will take approximately one hour.If you still have questions after the webinar has finished, you will be given the opportunity to schedule a private meeting with one of Welocate’s advisors.
