We were looking for a house in Weesp and chose to work with Aemestelle Makelaars because they also have an office there. Bas was our advisor and we were very satisfied with his guidance. He communicates very well with expats and helped us to make competitive offers on our dream home. Although looking for a house took about a year, he was always available. After purchasing our house I recommended Aemestelle Makelaars to a colleague who sold his apartment in Amstelveen. My colleague also had a very positive experience with Bas.

Bas was amazing to work with. He’s incredibly detail-oriented and always put our needs first. Instead of rushing us into the first house we saw, he took the time to research every property and came with us to every single visit. He looked at each house with a technical eye, pointing out all the ups and downs so we knew exactly what we were getting into. Bas also arranged everything—from viewings to inspections—making the whole process super easy and stress-free. We truly felt su…

I wholeheartedly recommend Aemestelle Makelaars and in particular Bas van Schalkwijk. Buying a house in the Netherlands is no easy task, especially not as an expat. Bas was ready to meet our needs and not only to close the deal. Exactly the professional support we needed throughout the entire process, up to signing the deed at the notary. Thank you.

Ik heb met veel plezier samengewerkt met Bas als onze makelaar en ik kan hem van harte aanbevelen. Gedurende het hele proces was Bas professioneel, deskundig en ontzettend behulpzaam. Hij nam de tijd om onze behoeften te begrijpen en gaf waardevol advies bij elke stap. Zijn snelle reacties en oog voor detail zorgden ervoor dat de hele ervaring soepel en stressvrij verliep. Als u op zoek bent naar een toegewijde en betrouwbare makelaar die oprecht om zijn klanten geeft, dan is Bas de juiste persoon!

I have dealt with what I can only describe as the worst imaginable service at Aemstelle Makelaars. Despite the notorious reputation of real estate agents, the level of dishonesty and inconsistency here was astounding. Trust became an issue almost immediately, as the information provided was often contradictory and support or clear answers were lacking. When we finally chose a house, we felt completely abandoned, almost as if Aemstelle was collaborating with the seller's agent against our interests. Throughout the entire process, it was difficult to say whether their actions were due to intentional deception or simply staggering incompetence. I advise everyone to avoid this real estate agency. They not only unnecessarily complicated our experience of buying a house but seemed to almost sabotage it. In an industry that already struggles with trust, they really set a new low point. A resounding 0/5 from me.

My experience with this makelaar was very disappointing. The process was unnecessarily complicated due to poor communication and a lack of initiative. This made an already stressful situation even worse. Furthermore, I had the feeling that there wasn't always transparency, which seriously undermined trust in their guidance. I recommend seeking a more reliable and professional makelaar. Hopefully this office takes the feedback seriously and works on their service and professionalism.

Writing a review is sharing a personal experience. This doesn't necessarily have to apply to everyone. It concerns the following. For an appraisal of my property, my experience with this company is negative because: 1. Providing the necessary information was more than adequately done, however I received multiple reminders for providing the required info while it had already been delivered half a month earlier. 2. I find the invoicing for the appraisal to be on the high side. (€1000,-) 3. Sending payment reminders while the payment has long since been made. 4. It turns out that their stated payment reference on the invoice is incomplete, but they still send payment reminders while the payment was more than adequately made. All in all, given my negative experience, I do not recommend Aemestelle.

Enorm bad experience with one of the brokers from Aemestelle when selling my apartment. In my opinion, a broker should be streetwise, honest, have a good feel for the market and marketing, and combine courage and charm. This gentleman appeared to lack all of these qualities. He was constantly nervous, always able to name a doomsday scenario for everything. I get the strong impression from other brokers that he is seen as a weakling from whom a cheap deal can be obtained. All this resulted in a ridiculously low first offer from the buyers. The Aemestelle broker then became super nervous and advised me on an unusually low counter-offer, which the buyers immediately accepted. The Aemestelle broker was not even disappointed that he apparently set it so low that there was no negotiation. Furthermore, he was constantly absent-minded. He posted duplicate photos on Funda, repeatedly asked for documents I had already sent him, left the back door open after a viewing, failed to show up or was late for appointments, and when we were with the notary, he still hadn't reviewed the relevant deeds (despite repeated urging). He had no feel for online marketing - the purchasing broker even unsolicitedly referred to the poor quality of the photos on Funda but the Aemestelle broker always said they were fine when I mentioned something about it earlier. Likewise, the brochure was very unstreetwise and extremely poorly printed, upon which he said 'yes but our printer can't do better' instead of doing something about it. In other sales brochures it states that the notary chosen by the buyer may charge a maximum of €120 for striking out the mortgage, extra costs are borne by the buyer. This broker forgot to include this and sure enough: the notary promptly asked €305 per mortgage share. Our repeated attempts to discuss the underperformance of the broker with him were dismissed with a lot of 'yes but' and no improvement. His reading of this review resulted in a monologue of more than 10 minutes and a reply email. According to him, he is open to criticism, but for someone who is open to it, he asked surprisingly few questions, namely zero. During the transfer, he went into my house with the buyers before the agreed time, without waiting for me and without even calling to see if it was okay. When I arrived home just before the agreed time, I unexpectedly found 5 people in my house! It then turned out that he had also looked up which new house I had bought out of curiosity, what all was in the sales brochure of my new house, and he had called the notary who accompanied the purchase of my new house to ask how much we and the sellers paid for his services. How dishonest can a person be!!! The choice of this broker has cost me an estimated at least €20 - 30 k euros, possibly much more; not even considering the extra energy it took to keep this gentleman somewhat on track. I don't often write a Google review, but this was so extreme that I would like to warn others.

Moving to Amsterdam was a big decision for me. I didn't have time to personally view apartments and I also had to bring a dog with me, so it was, to say the least, no easy task. Fortunately, I had Harm Beskers as my real estate agent. Harm made a huge effort to find the perfect home for me and guide me through the entire process. He was super patient and professional in answering all my questions and requests. Because of that, my move became a pleasant experience, instead of the usual stressful hell that finding and moving into a new apartment usually is. So, if you're looking for a fantastic apartment with an even better moving experience, then Harm is the right person for you!

I would not recommend this company. We had Aemstelle appraise our apartment. The report was very superficial and sloppy. We then asked another company for a second opinion, which was complete and the appraised value was much higher. Even after confronting Aemstelle with this, they were unwilling to admit that they had done poor work. What a shame!
Agent's response
Translated by AI
Dear Joyce, it is always annoying when expectations are not met. However, when appraising a property, the value is not determined by the client, but by the appraiser. He is the one with market insight and will substantiate the appraised value with transactions that have taken place in recent history. You indicated that you had a second appraisal done, which is your right. It would have been fairer if you had mentioned that this second appraisal was conducted several months after ours. Furthermore, we are still waiting for your payment.
