Buying a home and arranging your mortgage is an experience in itself.
With 25 years of experience in the financial and real estate world, I understand the importance of your satisfaction and trust in me. This way, you can focus on the layout and the furnishing of your new home, while I take the responsibility of gaining insight into your personal financial situation and based on this, structuring your mortgage.
How may I help you?
BUYING YOUR FIRST HOME
You probably have many questions. What's the first step when you want to buy a home? What's the mortgage amount you can borrow? Which mortgage suits you, and what amount would you like to budget for your mortgage payments each month? I'd be happy to discuss this with you and guide you through the purchasing process.
BUYING ANOTHER HOME
There are plenty of reasons to start searching for a new home. Your current home might be getting too small, you desire a house with a garden, or perhaps you're looking to downsize and move to a different part of the country. When purchasing another home, you go through the same steps as when buying your first home, but the major difference is that you already have a home and its associated mortgage. You might also have accumulated equity that you wish to invest in your new home and want to transfer your old mortgage. I'd be glad to assist you in the direction you want to take and provide insight to help you make an informed next step.
RESTRUCTURING YOUR MORTGAGE
There are various reasons why refinancing your mortgage could be interesting. How can you potentially save on your mortgage? Do you find your monthly payments or interest rate too high? Or is a savings product becoming available within a few years? Perhaps you want to tap into your accumulated equity for greater financial flexibility? Understanding your financial situation can assist you, and I'd be happy to explore whether there's a suitable solution for you.
GOING SEPARATE WAYS
When you and your partner decide not to continue together, it's important to be well-informed about the financial implications of jointly owning a property. If you'd like to continue residing in the home, I'd be happy to assist in setting up a newly structured mortgage for you or guide you in making a choice to take a new direction. Alternatively, you might prefer to move or rent, in which case I can provide you with the necessary insights.
Structuring your Mortgage
When purchasing a home, there's a lot to consider. You're not just investing in the property itself; you might also want to update the kitchen and bathroom. Additionally, there are fees for the real estate agent and notary. It involves quite a bit of coordination, and the most crucial aspect is ensuring that, alongside your mortgage, you can still enjoy a comfortable lifestyle.

GET IN TOUCH
If you'd like to schedule a no-obligation appointment – whether online or at your home – please feel free to contact me.
2
SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT
It's great to get to know you and understand your preferences. During our initial conversation, I'll assess your financial situation. Based on your preferences, I'll discuss the process with you, gather necessary information, and determine the applicable fee.
3
YOUR INFORMATION
If we decide to proceed together, we'll complete the necessary details to ensure we're well-prepared for your financing application with the most suitable lender. I will then structure your mortgage accordingly. During this process, we will also discuss the associated risks.
4
APPLYING FOR FINANCING
I will once again compare various providers in terms of interest rates as well as their conditions and come up with the best offer. Subsequently, I will apply for the most suitable financing on your behalf, including any selected insurances. Together, we will review the offer and I will manage the timelines.
5
THE FINAL STEP
The offer is signed, the financing is arranged, and now we wait for the moment of going to the notary. I ensure the proper handling with both the bank and the notary. From that point onwards, the mortgage payments will begin, and the associated costs will be settled.

I'D LIKE TO REMAIN YOUR CONVERSATION PARTNER
