The entire timeline of buying a house:
- 05.04.2023 - We first met with the real estate agent and signed the contract with them the next day.
- 08.04.2023 - 24.04.2023 - we went for house viewings organized by the agent. We visited Zwolle 3 times and looked at about 7-8 houses.
- 24.04.2023 - We had the first consultation with the mortgage advisor.
- 26.04.2023 - We bid on the house, and they accepted the bid the same day.
- 01.05.2023 - We asked the rental company if we could terminate the rental contract earlier to buy a house, and they agreed, so we settled the date with the house owner.
- 03.05.2023 - We hired a technical inspector to check the house.
- 18.05.2023 - Our mortgage advisor applied for a mortgage after collecting all the docs from us.
- 01.06.2023 - We got the mortgage confirmation. It would have been even faster if we were not from Russia.
- 28.06.2023 - We got the keys, signed everything at the notary, and moved to the house.
