⏳ 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬: 𝐚 𝐜𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐢𝐦𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭

A month ago, we reported rising processing times at several lenders. That trend is now reversing.

📊 The biggest change: Attens, Centraal Beheer, and Syntrus Achmea were processing applications in 6 business days back in April. They're now back to 2 business days, a significant improvement for anyone currently in the market.

Only two money prodviders are at 4 business days. The majority of lenders are processing applications within 2 business days.

Overall, a positive signal: lender capacity appears to be catching up with demand again.

For buyers and those looking to refinance, this means more breathing room in your timeline. That said, it's still worth keeping your lender's processing time in mind, especially when your transfer date is approaching.

This is part 5: interest rates and risk. Enjoy learning!

The top-5 mortgage rates (10-year fixed, NHG, energy label A) — May 2026:

▶️ Rabobank: 3.66%
▶️ Obvion: 3.69%
▶️ ASN Bank: 3.69%
▶️ ING: 3.69%
▶️ Triodos Bank: 3.75%

After weeks of rising rates, we're seeing a modest dip and a partly refreshed list of lenders.

What's behind it? Lenders had pushed their rates up more than the underlying market rates warranted. Now comes a small correction downward.

Whether this marks the start of a genuine decline in rates remains to be seen: geopolitical uncertainty and energy price pressures continue to push long-term rates higher.

What we do know: the best mortgage isn't simply the one with the lowest rate today. Other conditions also matter, especially over the full term of your mortgage.

Fact or Fiction? #5
“My parents are allowed to guarantee a mortgage.”

👉 What do you think?

We get this question all the time. Can parents really step in to help secure a mortgage? And what does that actually mean for everyone involved?

In this episode of Fact or Fiction, we explain how it works and the key nuances you need to understand.

⏳ 𝐌𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐠𝐚𝐠𝐞 p𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐧𝐠 t𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐬: 𝐓𝐡𝐞 p𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐞 i𝐬 s𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐢𝐧𝐠

Three weeks ago, we reported a slight improvement. Now we're seeing the market shift into reverse.

📊 In our last update, 19 lenders were processing applications within 2 business days. That number has dropped: Allianz, Argenta, bijBouwe, HollandWoont and Vista have all fallen out of that group.
Attens, Centraal Beheer, and Syntrus Achmea are now at 6 business days, and Dynamic Credit at 4 business days.

So significantly fewer lenders are hitting that 2-day turnaround. What's behind it? The mortgage market remains under pressure. Rising rates are driving spikes in applications, and not every lender has the processing capacity to keep up.

For buyers and those refinancing, this means: choose your lender carefully and factor processing times into your timeline, especially when working around your closing date.

💬 Want to know what turnaround time applies to your situation? Reach out to your Viisi advisor.

Ready for lesson 3 of our Dutch mortgage dictionary?

These are the words of lesson 3:
😉

02/04/2026

The top 5 mortgage rates (10-year fixed, NHG, energy label A):

▶️ From 3.56% in February
▶️ To 3.44% in March and now…
▶️ The top 5 has jumped to 3.76% – 3.79%!

So, quite a shift as we’ve seen many rate increases in recent weeks.
We also see Argenta and Florius entering the top 5.

What does this mean for you?

👉 When comparing lenders, pay close attention to conditions such as moving interest rates and cancellation fees
👉 The best mortgage isn’t just about the rate — conditions matter both at the start and throughout the entire term
👉 Make sure you get proper advice — we’re happy to help
