Buying agent
The Hague costs
What does a buying agent in The Hague cost? A logical question — and one that you would want to have clearly answered before you actually hire a broker for your next purcahase. At HAYMAN, we believe that transparency about the exact costs is the basis of trust.
That's why we explain exactly what purchase packages there are and what you get in return.
How does no cure no pay
work for purchase guidance
With a no cure no pay appointment, you only pay when the purchase actually goes through. Are you unable to find a home or are you dropping out during the process? Then you pay nothing else. It sounds ideal, and for many buyers, it is. In practice, it works like this: you sign a service order that states that the broker will only receive compensation when signing the purchase agreement. This fee is only paid at the time of legal transfer to the notary.
The amount of the fee is agreed in advance — usually a fixed amount or a percentage of the purchase price. This way, you know exactly where you stand before the process starts.
What does a buying agent
in The Hague cost
The costs of a buying agent vary in The Hague, depending on the rate model and the service.
In practice, you see three commonly used models:
Fixed rate — If successful, you pay a pre-agreed amount, regardless of the purchase price of the home. This provides complete upfront clarity and is popular among buyers who want to know exactly where they stand.
Brokerage (percentage) — The fee is a percentage of the final purchase price, often between 1% and 1.25%. This model links the costs directly to the value of the home.
No cure no pay — You only pay when you make a successful purchase. Ideal if you're not sure how long your search will take. Learn more about our no cure no pay model.
What our clients say about us
Commission fee or

what would suit you
Which model is most favorable depends on your personal situation. Have you been looking for a long time and want flexibility? Then no cure no pay based on brokerage can be attractive. Do you already have your eye on a home and are you mainly looking for guidance in negotiation and processing? Then a fixed rate is often the smartest choice.
Our advice: don't just choose by price. Also check out what's included in the given rate. How many viewings are included? Is contract assistance from the notary included? Are architectural concerns identified? With HAYMAN, the complete process is always included — from search to key transfer.
