Become a homeowner in Eindhoven

Most expats finance a new property with a mortgage. You can get a mortgage arranged by your bank or through an independent advisor. We believe that expats are better off with an independent advisor. As an independent advisor, it is our job to look after your interests and get you the best deal on the market. We have access to over 35 mortgage providers In The Netherlands. Besides comparing interest rates, we also look at their terms & conditions and acceptance policies. We are experienced in advising expats and that is why we have a success rate of over 99% with expat clients. The combination of having access to many lenders and our expertise in dealing with expats is what sets us apart.

Applying for a mortgage on a property in Eindhoven has some specifics compared to the rest of the Netherlands:

Owner’s Association:

Many properties in Eindhoven are apartments and by law they are obliged to be part of an Owner’s Association (in Dutch abbreviated VVE). Different mortgage providers have different acceptance policies on Owner’s Association specifics. Take as an example the multiple year maintenance plan. We know which mortgage providers have an issue with it if this does not exist. Or how to prove towards the mortgage provider if there is sufficient contribution by all the owners of the building. If this also isn’t an option, we would submit the mortgage application to a provider with wider acceptance policies on the Owner’s Association.

Leasehold:

In Eindhoven there are properties with leasehold. Leasehold means that you can buy the apartment itself but the land under the building is on lease. Mostly you will be leasing it from the municipality of Eindhoven, but private lease also still occurs. Leasehold can have an impact on your mortgage application. Some mortgage providers have more strict ways of reviewing the type, the amount and remaining duration of the leasehold. Again here an independent mortgage advisors can make the difference. The annual leasehold amount also impacts how much mortgage you are able to get. If there is a leasehold of 2,500 euro annually, this means you can borrow over 50,000 euro less than if it was on a property without leasehold.

Buy-To-Let Mortgage:

We often advise expats that already own a home in Eindhoven. They want to move to a new home, but are interested to find out if they can keep their current property as a buy-to-let. There are specific buy-to-let mortgages that allow you to rent out your property. To apply for this type of mortgage a condition is often that you can only finance up to about 80% of the rented state value. Our mortgage advisors are experienced in assessing whether this is possible and mediating in these mortgage applications.
