From Valuation to Refinancing: Putting Your NWWI Report to Work
If you've just received your NWWI report, you're holding a powerful document that can unlock financing options and de‑risk major decisions. An NWWI report (an NWWI‑validated valuation report) is accepted by Dutch mortgage lenders and provides a certified market value you can rely on for mortgage applications, refinancing, purchase and sale decisions, and other official requirements. This guide explains exactly how to use your NWWI report—and how Moerland Makelaardij helps you turn it into results.
What is an NWWI report and why it matters
An NWWI report is a residential valuation that has been validated by the Nederlands Woning Waarde Instituut (NWWI). In practice, that means:
- The valuation follows strict national standards and lender criteria.
- Dutch mortgage providers accept it because of the NWWI validation.
- You get a thoroughly substantiated, independent market value.
At Moerland Makelaardij:
- Our taxateurs deliver NWWI‑validated reports known for short turnaround and solid substantiation.
- Delivery is within a maximum of five working days after the property inspection.
- The fee is €749, inclusive of VAT.
- Our team holds relevant certifications (NWWI, NRVT, VastgoedCert) and operates as NVM real‑estate agents.
Since 1992, Moerland has been the NVM broker of Amsterdam Nieuw‑West, combining deep local market knowledge with a personal, straightforward approach.
