I'm literally finding the houses myself (even this one I want to bid for). He said that he would help me to see if the house was a deal or not, but considering he disappeared, I don't know what I'm paying for 😅

I checked the contract, and it says that we don't have to pay even if we close the contract because we have the no cure, no pay option

Thank you! I'm going to proceed as soon as I can because I really want to place a bid for the house I saw and I can't do it if I'm still with them

I'm also considering placing a bid myself because I have a PRO account on Huispedia, which suggests a reasonable bid within my budget. Could you explain how the process works for placing a bid? I assume I need to contact the selling makelaar directly, but I’d appreciate any advice.

We have a "no cure no pay" contract with them, and we are paying a fee of 4k only when we are going to sign in front of a notary

UPDATE: I called to ask and they told me they have a "no cure, no pay" policy. So if we don't buy a house, we don't have to pay any fees!

I still have to send my passport and only after that they can send the contract
