Private sale in Amsterdam

What is a silent sale?

During a private sale, there is no “For Sale” sign in the property’s yard. The sale takes place, so to speak, “behind closed doors.” Properties offered through private sale are designed to protect the seller’s privacy. Prospective buyers are screened in advance, preventing you from letting in viewers who have no intention of purchasing. As the seller, you decide which websites your home is listed on and the pace at which the sales process moves forward. This way, you remain fully in control.

Discretion and trust

We treat your information confidentially. For us, a "silent sale" is synonymous with a discreet sale.

Why choose a private sale?

There may be reasons why it is not always advisable to publicly announce the sale of your home. This is usually due to privacy or security concerns, or simply because you do not want to share the news with those around you. Additionally, you may not necessarily want to sell the property in the short term, but still wish to offer it to a specific target group to gauge interest in your home. It may also be that you only want to sell your home under certain conditions or have already found a potential buyer. These are all valid reasons for opting for a private sale.

Exclusive homes through private sales

You won’t find the most exclusive homes on Funda. Exclusive homes are often listed elsewhere; one option is to initiate a private sale. Exclusive homes are often listed through private sales. This targets a very specific audience, which you can better identify through a private sale. Buyers in the high-end market aren’t always active on platforms like Funda.

Target viewers who are ready to buy

As a seller of an exclusive home, you don’t want to deal with prospective buyers who aren’t serious about purchasing. By opting for a private sale, you can exclude this group.

Disadvantages

Disadvantages

  • 01

    There is no guarantee that you will get the best price for your home. This is because not all sales channels are included in the process, which limits the reach.

  • 02

    The private sale process may take longer than a standard sale process. This is also due to the limited reach. If you need to sell quickly, this is usually not the best option.
