The NHG limit for 2024 has been set at 435,000 euros, Minister Hugo de Jonge reported today in a letter to Parliament.

When buying a home, you are legally entitled to a three-day cooling-off period. But how exactly does this work with weekends?

The office has been active for over 15 years from Utrecht, Leidsche Rijn and Maarssen. The company now has 9 employees and has held a top position in the Utrecht real estate market for many years in terms of the number of transactions in which they have mediated in the sale and purchase of existing homes and appraisals for financing.

The new office at Willem Frederik Hermansstraat 698 in Utrecht offers sufficient space for staff and is located in a strategic location in Leidsche Rijn, diagonally opposite Terwijde station at the intersection of the Vleutensebaan and the Weg naar 't Zand.
