Twice a year, the NVM Open House Day (NVM Open Huizen Dag) occurs. On this day, sellers open their homes for potential buyers to view. The next one is October 5th 2024. It’s a great opportunity to visit multiple properties without any obligations. Planning to attend the Open House Day? Be well-prepared by calculating your maximum mortgage beforehand so you can act quickly if you see the house you like.

Get Ready Tips

The Open House Day is a casual and non-committal event. However, with so many properties available, mixing them up is easy. You might wonder which house had that amazing roof terrace or whether it was the first or second property with the convenient elevator. Proper preparation can help you distinguish between the different homes.

How It Works

On Open House Day, walk into any home listed as participating. Find the full list of open houses here on Funda.  There’s no need to sign up in advance—just visit any of the properties between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM.

Respect the Seller’s Space

It’s important to respect the seller’s home during your visit. If they ask you to take off your shoes, kindly do so. Avoid opening cabinets and drawers without permission—if you wish to look into something specific, politely ask first.

Found What You’re Looking For?

If you find a property you love on Open House Day, the next smart thing is to team up with a local and certified real estate agent who can guide you through the next steps. If you already have a real estate agent, mention the houses you will visit. You can always plan a second viewing together.
