Correct communication via their website as well as by phone, with punctual appointments, both at the start of the rental and upon termination of the lease agreement and handover. However, Xpat Xpert defends ONLY the interests of the landlord (landlord). Despite a perfectly cleaned apartment upon handover, confirmed by photos and a signed handover statement (signed by an employee of Xpat Xpert), part of the deposit was withheld. Xpat Xpert has not heard anything more about this matter. Complete radio silence despite repeated requests for clarification as to the reason for this, as well as their support for the tenant, given the signed handover statement. Still a disappointing end to the rental agreement!

Some time ago I was invited for a viewing. For this, I traveled to Leiden, sent all my documentation, and was greeted kindly. Unfortunately, after that, I never heard anything more. I repeatedly tried to make contact, both by email and telephone, but I was never answered. I find this a very unsocial situation; I invest effort, time and money in the procedure only to hear nothing!

I feel very reassured because if I have a problem in the house that I rent, I can call the team and they will help me immediately or suggest what I should do. This is very important as an expat.

Everything went smoothly, except for the settlement of an apartment, where the agency acting as an intermediary could not provide an explanation as to why I did not receive the full deposit back. To prevent my problem, make sure you have a signed and agreed-upon sheet at hand during the final inspection of the apartment detailing what needs to be repaired/cleaned before handing over the keys.

Xpat has been renting out my apartment for years. Despite the turnover of tenants not being so frequent, I am very satisfied with the service.

Professional, customer-friendly! You are given the space to think quietly, do not have to draw anything immediately. Very satisfied with the collaboration!

Good service, friendly and without extra costs. Even helped with setting up utilities and internet.

Another agency that charges the infamous 'administrative costs' to tenants who found the property advertisement themselves on the xpat xpert website. Someone who can sleep well at night even after robbing expats blind during the day has a very flawed character. Avoid at all costs, or simply refuse to pay the administrative costs!!

We are very satisfied. After good experiences regarding the rental of apartments, Kevin guided us to our full satisfaction in the sale of our home.

Mischa helped us with the exit inspection of our rented apartment. He was quick, on time, friendly and helped us to make the check-out process run smoothly! It was a positive experience and we are happy with the help we received.

Very fast and professionally guided. The realtor was always ready with advice and help. Quickly came to a sale.

I am extremely pleased with the outstanding service provided by Kevin in selling my apartment. From start to finish, the entire process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. Kevin handled everything with great expertise, ensuring that every step—from listing to negotiations and finalizing the sale—went seamlessly. Kevin kept me well-informed throughout the process, provided excellent advice, and worked diligently to secure a great deal. Their market knowledge, attention to…

Excellent real estate agent, friendly and expert. The sale went very smoothly, quickly, and as desired.

Excellent realtor. I have known Kevin Vink for years as a very professional realtor. Highly recommended.

I thought it was impossible to find a house in the Netherlands until I met Madelon at Finke Makelaars! She found a fantastic house for me, exactly what I was looking for. Everything was so fast and easy, just perfect. Thank you so much Madelon, meeting you was a blessing! 🥂 Pietro Napolitano🇮🇹

We needed a house for a short stay and Mischa was very helpful. When we couldn't secure the first house we were interested in, Mischa helped us find another house that we wouldn't have found ourselves. This house is perfect for us. The communication was fast, friendly, and professional.

Mischa was incredibly helpful – professional, friendly and fast. Thanks to him, I found a great apartment much faster than I expected. A real recommendation!

It was a pleasant experience to rent a property through Finke Makelaars in Leiden. From the first interaction, the contact was personal, and they took the time to consider our individual situation. Celine is a friendly and accessible contact person, and her colleagues were also kind and helpful.

Mischa was my letting agent and I can highly recommend him. Extremely professional, friendly, fast, personal, and driven. Thanks to him, I quickly found a home through his network. Really very grateful, …

Great, tidy, nice

Great experience with Finke real estate agents, quick and super friendly contact. Thanks for the house!

Everything was perfect!

I collaborated with Vera and after months of searching, we finally managed to secure a house in Leiden. I felt that Vera really understood my situation. She answered all my questions clearly and was generally a great help throughout the process! :)

We have already rented out three apartments through Flinke Makelaars. Besides their professionalism and customer focus, they are also very proactive. I experience this last point as a particular plus point.

Very good communication via WhatsApp, email and phone. Easily accessible. Everything went well with consultation. The chosen strategy worked out very well.

I received excellent help from this real estate agent! The communication was very pleasant and the expectations were drawn well and realistically. All in all, a very good company if you want to sell your house!

The real estate agent clearly knew what he was talking about. He chose the right strategy, my house sold quickly. I wanted a fairly quick transfer and he arranged that too under the motto 'you are my client, I'll take care of it'. I found selling my first little house quite exciting, but thanks to the good guidance, it was much less stressful for me. A quick response to all my questions, both via the app and by phone. He always calls back quickly and takes the time, as does the assistant. I definitely recommend this real estate agent.

We couldn't have wished for a better buyer's broker than Chris! As first-time buyers in this difficult housing market, it is very difficult to navigate. Fortunately, Chris helped us from the beginning until a winning bid for our current home.

My real estate agent clearly knew what he was talking about. In my opinion, he chose the right strategy, and my house sold quickly. He always took the time to respond to me when I had a question, via the app or a phone call. He would always call back politely, so would his assistant. For me, it was an exciting experience, selling my first home for the first time, but thanks to the pleasant guidance, it was considerably less stressful.

We couldn't have wished for a better buyer's agent than Chris. Perfect help from beginning to end

For us, everything is a first time, but we were well helped, well informed during the viewings, good answers to questions, no question was strange, nice contact with the Real Estate Agent, even though previously for advice on putting a house up for sale.

Excellent real estate agent! Expert, friendly and sold quickly. Good communication and guidance. Very satisfied with the service. Absolutely recommended!

Chris helped us well with the sale, great communication and a good result! The colleagues in the office are also friendly and helpful.

Good tips, including styling, which allowed the house to be presented better. Good contact and consultation, also with the back office. Pleasant professional approach.

Top real estate agency. Compliments to all employees working there. Excellent communication and service.

Contact with Jan went very smoothly. Enthusiastic and driven real estate agent with good advice and clear communication.

Strongly recommended! Very helpful and friendly people who guided us to find what we wanted.

Worked wonderfully with Chris and the ladies of the internal affairs department. Contact was warm and expert. Top!!!!

Star of the show - Chris de Waard with supporting and very important roles played by a strong back office team (Romy, Nancy, Bianca). Sharp communication, the best in the business, gets the job done and above all reliable and transparent.

Excellent real estate agent, it was a pleasant collaboration. Personal contact was great. Good sales report, beautiful photos. Nothing but praise!

The contact was very pleasant and we were expertly guided through the process. We experienced this as very pleasant!

Contact with the estate agent and the agency went well and easily. Thorough knowledge of the local housing market.

We had a great experience with Mark and cannot recommend his services enough! Mark is very knowledgeable about the housing market in Leiden and guided us throughout the entire process, without rushing us and always prioritizing our best interests and needs. As non-Dutch speakers, it was very helpful to communicate fully in English with Mark and also to receive his support with language barriers.

Our broker was always responsive, helpful, professional, available to reply to any of our questions and clear in the explanations. He acted as in-between with the seller's broker and helped us arrange all we needed. All the paperwork was prepared promptly and the purchase contract was checked carefully before we signed it.

Mark was an excellent real estate agent and we could not recommend him more. Extremely knowledgeable and always putting our best interest first.

The communication flowed smoothly and pleasantly, there was a lot of personal attention and I received expert help.

Hoekstra en van Eck helped us with both our house sale and our new house purchase and it had been an excellent experience in both occasions. The prices for their services were better than all other makelaars we contacted and on top of that Mark (who was following us) already gave us an excellent impression from the moment we first met him. He has always been available, helpful and kind and it has been amazing to have his support during this process. Can only fully recommend Ho…

Mark and Evelien guided me excellently through the sale of a flat in Leiden. Due to personal circumstances, I was unable to actively participate. They took everything out of my hands and it went perfectly well. Correct, clear, friendly and a good way of communicating.

Very friendly broker who thinks along well and is very knowledgeable about the housing market in the region. Good guidance and advice. I would choose Hoekstra and van Eck again for a possible next time.

A flawless process. Mark loves his profession and sets high standards for himself: he investigated more than I expected; during a viewing, he sees more than I do as a building expert and is very critical. Because he also appraises himself, he could, in my opinion, accurately assess the value of properties, allowing us to bid with confidence. If I have to mention a downside: Mark has his own strong opinions about what is suitable and unsuitable and about quality - …

For the second time asked for help with selling the house. We were very well helped with clear explanation and good communication. It was as we expected and is definitely recommended.

A pleasant and engaged realtor with extensive knowledge. Fine people in the back office. Highly recommended.

Very nice realtor; expert, fast, honest, customer-oriented and pleasant to deal with. I am very satisfied and wholeheartedly recommend Mark.

Cheerfulness and optimism are characteristic of Mark. He also has a good network of (purchase) brokers in the region. During the viewings, he took all the time and gave us good feedback. Definitely recommendable.

Excellent real estate agent, good feeling, excellent communication, approachable. Mark guided us well with expert advice and our house was sold quickly.

Contact with Evelien went smoothly. She was usually called back quickly. She didn't have any problems working or coming by on her days off in case of important matters. Well done!

I had a very good experience with Hoekstra and Van Eck Leiden when buying my first house. Mark has a sharp, pragmatic view of properties, which meant that after each viewing, I always got a good picture of the positive and negative aspects. Also, Mark was always easy to reach and consistently clear in his advice and approach. And you can tell from his enthusiasm that he enjoys his work. I am very happy with the work that Mark and Joyce did for me. H...

Evelien was fantastic. She has good knowledge of the market and is very customer-focused. Nothing was too much for her. Communication was fast and clear.

Contact went perfectly well with the entire team of Regron. Helped us from A to Z in buying our house. Enjoyable viewings were done with Ferdinand. We were kept well and on time informed about all appointments and deadlines. They take the time for all your questions. If something is not clear, they make it clear. We definitely recommend Regron. Next time we will certainly come back. Keep up the good work team Regron!

We are very pleased with the collaboration with Regron real estate agency. After several conversations with various purchasing brokers - Ferdinand helped us with satisfaction, in buying our first owner-occupied home. Pleasant, no nonsense, easily accessible and transparent is how we would describe the collaboration. Ferdinand is someone who tells it as it is, gives you the space to make your own choices and thinks along where necessary. You notice during the viewings that there is a lot of experience and knowledge. In addition, we also had a pleasant experience with Sandra who mostly took on the administrative tasks. We were always treated kindly. In short, very satisfied and definitely recommended.

My real estate agent fully met my wishes and expectations. Involved, expert, and above all, taking care of everything. Top! As far as I knew what else needed to be done and what (possibly) was still going on, my real estate agent professionally informed me about this and clarified it with examples. Very happy that I went into business with this realtor. The result is also good. Thanks!

Regron supported and relieved us throughout the entire sales process. Everything was clear, fast, and easy.

Contact with the broker was excellent and they were always reachable and helpful. I would recommend them to others.

Personal contact physically or by telephone and also via Move. Everything went fine. Clear and transparent.

The house is great and sold quickly. A bit more explanation beforehand about using Move would have been useful. Move itself also has some unclear questions. We've used Regron three times in the past 18 years, with a satisfactory result.

For me, speed was important to prevent double charges. Then I definitely made a good choice by giving the assignment to Regron. They are expert and very knowledgeable about market value.

As sellers of our apartment, we can only say: Perfect. The contact with Ferdinand Jelten and his team is characterized by short communication lines, quick follow-up and personal attention. Excellent knowledge of the market. The apartment was sold within 2 weeks after the first viewing and subsequently a purchase agreement was signed. More than sufficient account has been taken of our wishes. We say: until next time!

We will always remember how this team guided us, even before we had a formal contract with them, and how Ferdinand advised us wisely not to buy hastily. Their help has been incredibly valuable to us. As expats in the Netherlands, after bad experiences with other real estate agents, we found this brilliant and reliable team. Thank you very much for all your dedication, support, and accuracy in guiding this purchase. Your thoroughness in checking the final documents and ensuring everything was in order made a world of difference for us. This is our first house in the Netherlands, but certainly not the last. We hope to be able to work with you and your team again in the future. I can wholeheartedly recommend this fantastic team to anyone looking for a house in the Netherlands. We wish there were more people and real estate agents like you!

Ferdinant Jelten and his team took the time. Always went along on viewing days. Advised on the price. Excellent cooperation.

I really wanted to sell my house quickly, and it certainly succeeded with Regron. The brokerage costs were reasonable and not higher than other real estate agents.

Contact with Regron brokers was easy and very professional. It is clear that they have a lot of experience. It's reassuring to be guided by a team that knows what they are doing, they keep you informed of all developments (via their digital platform) and give all potential buyers individual attention. I wholeheartedly recommend them!

Very professional, friendly and helpful! Everything went smooth and transparent. Highly recommended!

Ferdinand quickly figured out what we were looking for and advised us all the way until we found the house we wanted.

Top real estate agency! Super good and clear guidance when buying our house. A to Z is fully explained, and they are always available if you have questions! They really guide you through the entire process, so definitely recommended for first-time buyers. Ferdinand and co, thank you very much!
