Makelaarshuis Amsterdam - Zaanstad

Ik kan Makelaarshuis van harte aanbevelen. Ik heb veel steun gekregen van de makelaar (Ruud), hoewel ik geen directe klant was. Hij reageerde snel en gaf goede informatie.

I rented out my apartment for a few years and eventually sold it with Ruud's help. From the beginning, it was a very pleasant and informal relationship. Everything I didn’t understand/had doubts or questions about, I could ask Ruud and he always had answers and helped me as best he could. He always responded quickly! I couldn’t have wished for a better real estate agent! Thanks Ruud!

We had a very pleasant experience with Ruud, the sales agent for an apartment that we bought!

Excellent service! We rented a house through Makelaarshuis and had a fantastic experience. The entire process went smoothly, quickly, and professionally. Special thanks to Ruud, who even came by on Saturday to help us with finalizing the paperwork. The viewing was very detailed, with clear photos and explanations. We also received full support in connecting utilities such as water, electricity, and internet. All our questions were answered with care and professionalism. A real recommendation – excellent customer service and a personal approach. Thank you!

We greatly appreciated your help and support! Very friendly, professional, and helpful. Definitely recommended!

Ik heb jarenlang met veel plezier met Ruud samengewerkt. Hij heeft me eerst geholpen een goede huurder voor mijn woning te vinden en later geholpen mijn appartement voor een geweldige prijs te verkopen. Ik heb niets dan positiefs te zeggen over Ruud en zijn bedrijf. Bedankt, Ruud, voor je professionaliteit, waardevolle advies en ondersteuning. Ik kan zijn diensten van harte aanbevelen!

We rented out our house through Makelaarshuis Amsterdam- Zaanstad. That went very smoothly, from the beginning with clear and understandable communication and expectation management. Beautiful photos were taken and the rental process was seamless, so very satisfied!

Ik maak al 5 jaar gebruik van de diensten van Ruud, van huren en kopen tot nu verkopen in Amsterdam. Hij levert altijd een professionele, persoonlijke en hoogwaardige service. Hij doet er alles aan om ervoor te zorgen dat je je tijdens het hele proces geen zorgen hoeft te maken en ik zou hem zonder aarzeling weer inschakelen als ik ooit terugkeer naar Amsterdam. Een echte aanrader!

Really enjoyed working with Ruud. Ruud is friendly, relaxed and definitely professional. He can adapt well to his clients and from there offer sound advice or guidance!

Het beste makelaarskantoor om mee samen te werken. Terwijl mijn partners en ik maandenlang op zoek waren naar een geschikte woning in Amsterdam/Zaandam, kwam er een advertentie beschikbaar en Chanel deed er alles aan om ons in een mum van tijd een prachtig huurhuis te bezorgen. Ik kan het team van Makelaarshuis Amsterdam - Zaanstad van harte aanbevelen voor je volgende huizenzoektocht!!!! Bedankt allemaal!! :)

Ruud and Chanel helped us very nicely with the rental and sale of our house. Pleasant and quick communication, friendly and professional service, all in all definitely recommended for both renting and selling a property. Thank you Ruud and Chanel!

Ruud and Chanel arranged almost everything from A to Z for us after our property became available while we were on vacation. Communication went smoothly, offers from screened tenants came incredibly quickly, and the advice regarding pricing was excellent. In short, the 5 stars are more than deserved.

For several years now, we have been using Makelaarshuis Zaanstad for the rental of our homes in Amsterdam. Ruud and Chanel are very professional and, in addition to good advice, the rentals also go very quickly. They rented out 2 properties for us in just 2 weeks two months ago. All tenants are serious people because they are carefully selected. We have been renting for a long time and have never come across such a good real estate agency.

They found a house for me and helped me move in quickly. Although I couldn't reach them occasionally during the process, it generally went smoothly.

Ik ben half mei in Nederland aangekomen en Chanel heeft me enorm geholpen bij het vinden van een woning in juni. Hoewel ik pas op 1 augustus kan verhuizen, ben ik ontzettend blij dat ik een geschikte plek heb gevonden in deze oververhitte huurmarkt. Chanel is fantastisch; ze regelde bezichtigingen voor me en hielp me zelfs om op kleine details te letten tijdens de bezichtigingen. Mijn collega heeft ook via Chanel een appartement gevonden en iedereen is vol lof over haar.

I can wholeheartedly recommend Ruud Smit as a rental/leasing broker in Greater Amsterdam. No fluff, just understands the trade, clarity and keeping promises. Already completed a quick and successful deal for the 3rd time. Unnecessary to shop elsewhere, it's so much easier!

I wasn't sure if I needed Ruud’s services when our family moved from California to Amsterdam a few weeks ago. I thought Funda searches and an English-speaking market would make it easy to find something abroad. That changed when I came to Amsterdam for a week to look for a home. Ruud not only arranged the appointments – finding several new apartments that weren’t yet on the market – but also acted as an ally and confidant. Within a day he knew my preferences and needs and adjusted the search accordingly. We found a fantastic apartment and Ruud calmly negotiated the price and looked after our interests. I can wholeheartedly recommend the services of Makelaarshuis Zaanstad. Now we can focus on the important things, such as schools and finding our rhythm in this new and beautiful city.

Chanel helped my friend and me find the perfect apartment! She was super helpful and listened patiently to all our wishes and requirements. The Amsterdam market is a madhouse, but Chanel persevered and was helpful throughout :) She never gave up on the search and always helped us when we lost hope! Very professional and she did everything she could to help us find our new home. After we found the house, we also received help with arranging utilities. In short: a fantastic and friendly experience, highly recommended if you want to find the perfect apartment. Thanks for all your help, Chanel & Ruud ❤️

We chose Makelaarshuis Amsterdam-Zaanstad for the rental of our home. For us, this was a first time so quite exciting. The guidance in this process was taken care of from A to Z, meticulously. Clear communication, extensive intake where good attention was paid to our wishes regarding potential tenants, pricing and advice on the contract form. The photos and videos were beautifully presented. Finally, the aftercare, just that last check, simply superb. I absolutely recommend the team of Makelaarshuis Amsterdam-Zaanstad therefore a maximum score.

Ruud is een topmakelaar. Gezien de huidige woningmarkt is het vinden van de juiste makelaar belangrijker dan ooit, en we hadden ongelooflijk veel geluk dat we Ruud hebben gevonden. Hij zat vol met geweldige adviezen, lokale kennis en tips waar we zelf nooit aan zouden hebben gedacht. Het heeft ons nog wel maanden gekost om huizen te bezichtigen, maar met Ruud aan onze zijde hadden we er altijd vertrouwen in dat we zouden vinden wat we zochten. Toen we een huis vonden dat we echt mooi vonden, rondde Ruud de deal snel en efficiënt af en nu kunnen we ons in ons droomhuis vestigen. Bedankt Ruud!

After searching for an apartment with my partner for a few months, I was finally able to connect with Chanel from Makelaarshuis Amsterdam. This was extra difficult for us because we were not in the Netherlands at that time due to a relocation. Chanel was super helpful in finding an apartment within one or two weeks. The apartment is fantastic, in a great location and within market value. So a big thumbs up for Chanel and the other real estate agents from Makelaarshuis Amsterdam, I will definitely do business with them again.

Such a great experience that I have collaborated with Ruud Smit from Makelaarshuis Amsterdam - Zaanstad. My partner and I were very worried that it might take a lot of time to find the right apartment, but within a week after searching, we signed the rental agreement. Ruud was extremely helpful and professional along the way and quickly answered all our questions. Couldn't recommend him enough!

Voordat ik naar Amsterdam verhuisde, nam ik contact op met Makelaarshuis Amsterdam - Zaanstad (Chanel & Ruud). Het is echt een uitdaging om een ​​appartement in Amsterdam te vinden. Ze stuurden me een paar links, ik maakte een keuze en ze lieten het me zien via een videogesprek. Na 10 dagen, toen ik in Amsterdam aankwam, had ik een appartement. Bedankt voor jullie inzet en snelle antwoorden op al mijn vragen.

Ruud helped me with renting out my apartment. From the first meeting, he was very professional and at the same time very approachable. It was as if I asked a friend for advice, but then one with real knowledge! The photos and video were free and looked great! He was very helpful with all my questions and concerns, and even helped with reserving a parking spot for the move! Only positive things! I would definitely recommend him! Thank you very much Ruud, you're a top!

Great service. We rent out our apartment during our stay abroad. Makelaarshuis quickly found a group of tenants who matched our profile. The communication was very smooth throughout the entire process. We were always able to reach Ruud. A real recommendation to relieve yourself of the hassle that doing it yourself brings along.

Wat een geweldige ervaring! Chanel regelde snel bezichtigingen en beantwoordde onze vragen altijd direct. Omdat we nieuw waren in het land, was het erg fijn dat ze bij de bezichtigingen aanwezig was, zodat ze de juiste vragen kon stellen. Ze zorgde ervoor dat onze aanvraag naar de verhuurder werd gestuurd en we kregen ons droomhuis :) Ze boden ons ook gratis de Easy Nuts-service aan, die al onze internet-, energie-, water- en gasbehoeften regelde, zodat alles werkte toen we erin trokken. Ik kan Makelaarshuis Amsterdam van harte aanbevelen!

We vonden ons appartement via Makelaarhuis Amsterdam en het proces verliep vlekkeloos! We hadden het genoegen om met Ruud te communiceren, die zich extra inspant om onze vragen te beantwoorden en zeer snel reageert. Al met al was het een plezier om met hem samen te werken en we zijn erg tevreden over het hele proces. Ik kan hem van harte aanbevelen!

I would recommend this realtor to everyone. Good, fast and personal service!

We were well assisted by Chanel. Thanks to the help, we quickly found a new home. We also experienced the guidance with viewings as very pleasant. We could even do it once via FaceTime, when we were unavailable.

Ruud and Chanel helped me enormously. Thanks everyone. It was my first rental property in Amsterdam and it was good.

In the past weeks we have collaborated with great pleasure with Chanel and Ruud. This way we found the perfect apartment for us in Zaandam. We have a dog and they also helped us with that. They specifically contacted the landlord with our question about the dog. They arranged everything for us, responded within a few hours and helped with all our questions. Everything was clear and easy to follow, so we definitely recommend them if you are looking for a new apartment in or around Amsterdam! :)

Great collaboration with Ruud. We were able to rent out our apartment within a few weeks and are happy with our tenant. I recommend them!

Een geweldige manier voor expats om een ​​appartement in Amsterdam te vinden. Makelaarshuis Amsterdam - Zaanstad coördineerde 10 bezichtigingen voor ons in 2 dagen en hielp ons de eigenaren te overtuigen van onze favoriete keuze. Zeker een aanrader!

That was really a lucky break! I rarely meet such nice, professional and helpful people. My new house is a dream! Exactly what I wanted. Thanks to the cooperation with Malelaarshuis, I could arrange gas, light, water and internet while I was still in Germany. The real estate agents were super reliable and always reachable (they even came back to explain the windows and help me with the internet ;)). Thank you very much for everything / Grazie mille di nuovo per tutto / Thank you very much for everything / Thank you well for all

Both Ruud and Chanel helped us with our apartment and it was a pleasure to work with them. They were very pleasant to deal with and clearly had experience with rentals in Amsterdam. The process didn't take long, it was clear and easy. We can definitely recommend them!

I consider myself lucky to have Ruud Smit as my real estate agent. He is very professional and has experience with renting out houses. I received multiple offers quickly after he listed my apartment online. Moreover, he helped me determine which type of lease agreement would be best for me and negotiated with the tenant who broke the contract immediately after signing (yes, that happened, I was shocked). All in all, a very good service and a nice and professional team!

Very satisfied with Makelaarshuis, great service, fast and friendly, and they assisted us with all matters surrounding the rental of our new apartment! Definitely recommended.

Eenvoudig en professioneel

I was very well helped by my real estate agent Chanel. Very friendly, good communication, attentive and a smooth process. Chanel actively thought along with me, listened to my wishes and came up with good solutions which made me feel truly seen. I found an amazing apartment within the ring road in Amsterdam in no time at all. She even got the rent lowered. I can definitely recommend Makelaarshuis! I will certainly contact them again when I am possibly looking for a new home in the future!

Real estate agency engaged as a rental agent. Very satisfied with their services. Clear communication, short lines, honest about the price, a thorough check-in procedure, beautiful advertisement photos taken by a professional photographer and nice tenants found for us.

Very good and professional service by Makelaarshuis! Ruud is pleasant to work with.

I was looking for someone for the long term instead of a one-off rental, a solid partner you can trust. I find Ruud to be a charismatic, no-nonsense man, professional and true to his word. I also like his conditions, which were really sharp compared to others.

Ruud worked quickly, was very professional and communicated regularly during the process. He took the worry out of our hands and we can wholeheartedly recommend him.

Very pleasant and clear communication with Ruud. Everything just as it should be and quickly helped. We recommend MakelaarsHuis!

Ruud helped us with renting out our apartment in Amsterdam. He is very professional, friendly and flexible. We greatly appreciated his help! I definitely recommend him to others who want to rent out their apartment in Amsterdam.

We wanted to rent out our home for a specific period. Through a roundabout way, we eventually ended up with Makelaarshuis Amsterdam-Zaanstad. This turned out to be a stroke of luck and within a short time, several tenants were found. Ruud arranged …

The communication and process went smoothly with Ruud. We can recommend this realtor to anyone who rents an apartment or buys a house.

We hebben Ruud ingeschakeld om huurders te vinden voor twee appartementen die we verhuren. De service en communicatie zijn uitstekend. Voor een van de huurders hadden we nazorg nodig en Ruud heeft ons daar ook fantastisch bij geholpen. Een echte aanrader!

Ruud was enthusiastically recommended to me by my colleague. She advised me to sit quietly and give Ruud the chance to find an apartment for me, given my busy schedule. I am very grateful to Ruud and Makelaarshuis for the …

Very happy with the way of working and the fast and easy communication with Ruud. Able to receive the keys within a week after our viewing, and that in Amsterdam! I can highly recommend Ruud and Makelaarshuis.

We are incredibly pleased with Ruud's approach. He found a lovely little house (with a large garden) for us in a location and at a price we never thought possible in Amsterdam. Very happy with it.

My partner and I engaged Makelaarshuis to help us with the purchase of our own apartment, and we are extremely satisfied with the service. Ruud was always available to answer all our questions and always took care…

A real recommendation. 5* service. You will not be disappointed.

Ruud makes the entire purchasing process very easy. He responds quickly, is patient, and asks the right questions to be sure that he fully understands what you are looking for. I would absolutely work with him again in the future.

Thanks to Ruud, we found a new house and moved. He was so kind to answer all our questions and always keep us informed about every step. Thanks again. I would definitely recommend him without a doubt.

We have selected New Home Apartments from five different real estate agencies due to its pronounced focus on the rental market, its extensive network within the expat community, and its honest and careful approach from the beginning. During …

Great service! I've been working with them for a few years now and they are always very professional and helpful.

Of the 3 brokers, I chose Ruud to rent out my house because he immediately seemed very professional. He exceeded my expectations with his good results, his constant, fast and adequate actions and responses to my…

Top service!! I have been working with them for 4 years and always found good tenants. I also referred them to a few friends who moved to Amsterdam and everyone was satisfied! A real recommendation!

Ruud was perfect. Very professional. He found the perfect tenant, advised on the best contract, drafted the contract, created the handover list and carried out the handover. No hassle and handled fairly and correctly. A real recommendation!

Excellent service. Excellent tenants found. Sufficient attention to the needs of the tenants. Rental contracts in Dutch and English. A very reliable and trustworthy real estate agent. We will continue to collaborate with New Home Apartments.

Ruud was very professional and efficient and did everything to make your move stress-free.

Echt goede service. Ze vonden de perfecte woning voor me, voor een zeer goede prijs. Ik zou dit makelaarskantoor in de toekomst graag weer inschakelen.

Very quickly found an apartment thanks to Ruud. We were helped wonderfully. Thank you!

Really good service! He helped me a lot. I have pets, but he helped me reach an agreement with my nice landlord. I am now completely at ease in my new house for the coming years and without their help that would certainly not have been possible. A recommendation.

As a landlord, I am happy with you again, Ruud. A great tenant found immediately and everything arranged quickly and smoothly again. Top!

Great, after having looked at a few houses, Ruud won the lottery! Thanks!

Ruud was perfect, always available. The apartment is fantastic. Even though the apartment was commission-free, he helped me with all the bureaucratic hassle and answered all my questions very quickly. I can absolutely recommend him to everyone!

Thanks to Ruud I was able to buy the apartment that I wanted in Amsterdam. He had a very personal approach, tried from the beginning to understand exactly what I was looking for and was very helpful with all his professional experience during the …

Thank you, Chantal and Ruud, for your professional services. Searching for an apartment in a foreign city can be a little difficult, but you have made it easier for us. We look forward to working with you in the future and hope to see you again soon. :)

Heartfelt thanks to Ruud for his wonderful personal help in finding the right apartment in Amsterdam. This was a corporate relocation and I didn't know the city. Ruud was fantastic in showing different neighborhoods…

Ruud has found for me two beautiful apartments in Amsterdam for the time that I live here. Thanks to him, I have bought my dream house in the city. Thank you for all your hard work, Ruud!

We have now used the services of Makelaarshuis Amsterdam - Zaanstad for the second time and are very satisfied again. Our first experience involved a rental property, and this time it concerned the purchase of a home. Ruud expertly guided us through the entire purchasing process of an apartment in Amsterdam. He organized and accompanied us during viewings and consistently gave us honest, realistic, and valuable advice about the properties, from the initial viewing to signing the purchase agreement. Ruud's patience and professionalism were clearly noticeable. Based on our experiences, we wholeheartedly recommend Makelaarshuis Amsterdam Zaanstad, especially to expats looking for reliable and supportive real estate services.

Aanvankelijk was ik erg tevreden met de aanbieder. Maar later werd ik door de eigenaar opgelicht om de terugbetaling te krijgen die ik verschuldigd was. Ik begrijp dat Makelaarhuis betaald wordt door de eigenaar van de woning, en daar ligt het probleem. Je hoort dan dingen als: "Hier in Nederland doen we dat nu eenmaal zo." Een totaal onjuiste bewering. Leer je rechten kennen en houd je aan de regels van het land, en niet aan de woorden van de makelaar.

When my husband and I knew we were moving to Amsterdam, my friend wholeheartedly recommended Ruud to us. It was a fantastic start! I knew within minutes that this was the man who would go with us to look for our house! Ruud helped us step by step through the crazy housing market of Amsterdam. As you can imagine, we were very intimidated and not familiar with the process in the Netherlands. Ruud gave valuable advice and always patiently answered all our questions. We never felt pressured to rush our search or choose an apartment. He is a genuinely kind person who cares about whether you are making the right decision for your personal situation. We have always felt in good hands with Ruud and will recommend him to all our friends. We have worked with real estate agents in four countries, and there really isn't anyone like him! We were so grateful for his help.

Ruud and the real estate agency are excellent. Within two weeks, we had a house. Ruud was also very involved in the process.

It's the second time I hire Ruud's services, this time to buy a house. I decided to go with him again because he takes the time to understand your wishes, preferences and dislikes. He gives you multiple options to…
