For international housing partners

A bid on instinct loses your client the home.

Your client wants the house, but doesn't understand how Dutch bidding works, and you're not an aankoopmakelaar. Aestimo handles the bidding: eight million transactions, strategy, legal conditions, English-language guidance. You keep the relationship. No buying agent, no extra layer, no overlap with your work.

No contract. No commitment.
No cost on your side.
Cross-referral welcome.

Aestimo advises only on the bid. The relationship with your client, and everything else in the move, stays fully with you.

Why this is your problem

A bid on instinct reaches your client's move. Too sharp and the home is gone, they start over. Too high and the valuation, financing or signed contract becomes a problem, the whole relocation slows down.

Aestimo handles it. Independent bidding advice, tailored to your client's financial and legal situation, no buying agent, no extra layer. Depth exactly where the bid begins, so the rest of the move runs smoothly.

The difference for your client

Two scenarios, one client, a world of difference

What actually happens when your client bids on instinct versus on data.

Without grounded bidding advice

Bidding on instinct, hoping for the best

Underbid
Home goes to another bidder. Client is frustrated, the move slides another month, and the search starts again.
Overbid
Valuation comes in below the offer. Equity gap grows, mortgage approval shrinks, the deal wobbles. Stress lands on the client, and on you.
Wrong conditions
Financing clause or inspection clause dropped under pressure, or worded poorly. The signed offer is legally binding. Risk sits with the client and indirectly with you.
With Aestimo on the bid

A grounded bid, calm for your client

Realistic offer
Offer grounded in eight million transactions. Sharp enough to win, no wider than necessary.
Valuation matches
Offer sits closer to expected valuation. Mortgage process runs smoothly, no eleventh-hour surprises. The move stays on track.
Conditions in place
Financing and inspection clauses written properly, legal check on the contract, no nasty surprises after signing.

A client who bids sharply and realistically gives you a smoother relocation, fewer escalations, and a story they'll tell their employer.

Your client's choice

Aestimo or a buying agent?

Your client has already found the home and wants to know what a sensible bid is. A full buying agent is often too heavy, and too costly, for that. Here is what makes the difference, for you too.

Buying agent
Aestimo
Involvement
The entire purchase process
Only the decisive bid
How the bid is grounded
Mostly local experience and gut feel
National data and real transaction figures
What your client pays
Typically 1 to 2% of the purchase price
A fixed fee, from €245
Your position
An extra advisor between you and your client
You stay the central point of contact
Mortgage advice
Often an in-house mortgage or insurance channel
None, and no interest in that area
What the bid aims for
Closing the purchase
A bid that fits within the financing

A buying agent guides the whole purchase, often on local experience. Aestimo is a specialist in one thing: the bid, grounded in national transaction figures rather than instinct. Your role stays intact, your client keeps control and pays only for what they need.

This is how Aestimo fills the gap between an expensive buying agent and bidding entirely on your own. A grounded bid should not be only for those who can afford an agent, but for everyone. That makes the market a good deal fairer.

Trust

Why you can introduce a client safely

The questions a partner asks before referring someone, answered up front.

Works only for buyers. Never for selling agents or investors. No double hats in the transaction.
No commission, kickback or lead reselling. The client pays Aestimo directly. Nothing in the chain steers the advice, no client data in a funnel.
You keep the client relationship. Aestimo works only around the bid, no extra layer in your service. The rest of the move stays with you.
Aestimo gives no mortgage, tax or immigration advice. No overlap with your scope, no risk to your independence.
No contract or mandatory programme. One assignment per client, per situation. You refer only when it fits.
Direct contact with Sam, former agent. No helpdesk, no junior. Four sample reports public, so you know exactly what your client gets.
Why Aestimo

Four reasons this works for your client

Aestimo is not a buying agent and not an AI tool. Something in between, built for partners.

01

Only the decisive moment

We're not in the whole process. No buying support, no viewings, no search. Aestimo applies its expertise only at the one moment the client asks: what should I bid, and on what conditions? The rest stays with you.

02

Data you don't normally get

We work from eight million transactions, including sales never listed on Funda, withdrawn transactions and off-market deals. Insight even experienced Dutch agents don't have access to.

03

English-language, personal service

No helpdesk, no wait. Direct WhatsApp contact in English, usually a reply within two hours on workdays. Your client gets treated the way you treat them: personally, informed, with care.

04

Cross-referral is welcome

Aestimo is regularly approached by international buyers who don't yet have a relocation or immigration partner, often before they've made any choices. For partners we refer back happily, in the direction that fits your specialism and region.

What it looks like

One example, one bid

For your client, WhatsApp

Forward this when your client asks: "how much should I bid?"

You asked how much to bid. I work with Aestimo for this: they prepare independent bidding advice based on professional transaction data, in English.

Send them your Funda link on WhatsApp (+31 85 401 0926) and they'll look at it with you. You pay them directly. I stay your contact for the rest of the move.

For Aestimo, email intro

Introduce a client in one line

Hi Sam, introducing [client name]. They're looking at [address / Funda link] and would like to know what a realistic bid looks like, given their financial and legal situation.

They have my OK to reach out to you directly. My role stays the relocation / immigration side. Thanks!

Frequently asked questions

The doubts partners often have

What does it cost me as a partner?
Nothing. No contract, no kickback, no commission. Your client pays Aestimo directly for the report, and you only refer when it fits. That's why Aestimo can work independently, and why you can refer with a clean conscience, there's no commercial interest hidden anywhere in the chain.
How do I know the quality is good?
Four sample reports are public on the site, one per package. You can see exactly what a client receives. Five out of five stars on Google Reviews, and the work is done by Sam, a former Dutch real estate agent with experience on both sides of the table.
How does a referral actually work?
The easiest way is through the partner space: you refer your client in one click with your personal referral link. Prefer a personal introduction? A WhatsApp or email to Aestimo (+31 85 401 0926, info@aestimobidding.nl) works too. We take it from there and your client receives the report within a few workdays. You keep the client relationship, we do our work.
What if the client isn't satisfied?
The client has a direct relationship with Aestimo for the bidding part. Any feedback goes between Aestimo and the client. No liability for you on the bidding component. So far: five out of five stars, but that's not a guarantee, it's just good work.
Will I receive client referrals back?
Aestimo is approached by international buyers who don't yet have a relocation, immigration or mortgage partner. For partners, Aestimo refers back happily, in the direction that fits region and specialism. No fixed arrangement, just how things flow.
Can I just try it once?
Yes, and that's exactly how Aestimo works: no contract, per client, per situation. Nothing to agree up front. One referral to see how it goes, and after that you decide whether you do it again.
Who's behind Aestimo
Aestimo

Aestimo was founded by a former Dutch real estate agent, with experience on both sides of the table. Work I stand behind personally, with attention for every client.

I prefer to work with partners who share the same philosophy: genuinely helping the client, with no hidden interest. That is why I am building a network of trusted partners across the Netherlands, people I can send my clients to with peace of mind for everything beyond the bid. So I help them not only at the decisive moment, but through the whole process.
