Van Santen Makelaars

Unfortunately, this realtor has meant very little for us!!!! Very bad realtor, Much requested information was not or incorrectly answered, completely avoided his responsibility, just left us hanging!! Truly scandalous. Never take this realtor!!!

Great realtor, decisive. Handles matters well. Best in Rotterdam and surrounding area. That’s why they came by fairly quickly to take photos. The ad was up on Funda within a week.

Our expectations have been exceeded. The real estate agent assisted us very well in the purchase of our new home. All formalities were taken out of our hands.

Pleasant and expert guidance. Pleasant and expert guidance. Pleasant and expert guidance.

We are very satisfied with everything that has been arranged and done for us. We would definitely recommend Van Santen.

From the first appointment with the real estate agent, there was trust. Knowledge of the local market, good advice, clear agreements. All in all very satisfied!

Fortunately, everything went well, a little lengthy but that was due to the buyer; otherwise, we are satisfied with the process.

Contact with Van Santen Makelaars is very pleasant and quick. Especially through the group app that was created. Very helpful throughout the entire process. House sold quickly as a result. I am very satisfied with how everything went. I would definitely recommend this real estate agent!

Good, clear communication. Good advice. Result as we wanted, which can certainly be attributed to the professional negotiations that were carried out for us.

We experienced the collaboration as very pleasant. They are realistic, skilled and keep you very well informed about developments. I can only say that we are very satisfied.

Contact flowed smoothly and quickly. Our questions were answered promptly. The sale went very fast indeed.

The contact went very smoothly. I was regularly kept informed of the progress. Very friendly and accommodating.

The real estate agent has sufficient knowledge of the matter. And pleasant to work with. Everything was arranged perfectly with them.

Contact went flawlessly. Continuously kept informed of relevant information. Expertise is top. I can wholeheartedly recommend this realtor!

A pleasant first meeting, a realistic assessment for the selling price of the property in line with our desired target group, good feedback from the viewings. Real estate agent calls potential buyers to inquire about submitting an offer.

It was pleasant to work with van Santen. They are accessible, realistic and reliable. They helped me well in both the purchase of my new house and the sale of my old home.

Top realtor who knows their stuff, responds quickly and communicates clearly. Our apartment was also sold very quickly. All in all, highly recommended!

The sales process took a while and there were some setbacks, but the employees of Van Santen really did everything they could. We are very grateful to them!

Professional team with very good market knowledge. Very pleasant and friendly communication with short response times. Transparent agreements and a pleasant digital sales environment. In short, partly thanks to the excellent real estate agent, the sales process has been very successful.

Nice contact and a good team with a personal approach, very pleasant. In addition, much experience and expertise in-house.

From the beginning, excellent service. Communication is clear, straightforward and honest. They involve you well in the sales process and what to expect. Very satisfied with the result, a good return on the property!!

Very pleasant to deal with, expert advice and excellent result. The real estate agent also successfully handled the sale of our current home.

For the sale of our house, we received a clear proposal with the sales process explained. The sale went better than expected and we were kept well informed.

Recently sold our house through Van Santen! Everything went super fast and according to our wishes. Selling our house was a difficult and exciting step for us but thanks to the employees of Van Santen it has become easier. They took us along in the process step by step which gave us more peace of mind. Good and clear communication. Besides that, Van Santen is a local family business that is familiar with our neighborhood (Capelle Schollevaar). We can say that our house was sold within one week. After that, still a few weeks for all procedures regarding financing and so on but everything went really fast. I can definitely recommend Van Santen. We considered another real estate agent who operates more broadly and is a larger company, but our choice when it comes to Van Santen was undoubtedly the right one. Angelika & Dawid

Enthusiastic team, short lines via app. Keep you well informed You notice that the team has a lot of experience Very skilled and friendly

Chosen from 3 brokers. Through word-of-mouth advertising, I already knew that the broker is very professional.

From the first conversation, we were well assisted with expert advice. The real estate agent was always available for us and greatly helped us in making the right choices, which ultimately led to the purchase of our dream house.

The real estate agent was/is knowledgeable, clear and worked professionally. Our questions were answered quickly and we were personally kept informed of all developments. The presentation looked beautiful and realistic and the house was sold quickly partly thanks to this. If I ever need a real estate agent again, I will work with Van Santen Makelaars again.

The real estate agent made an impression from the very first visit with both technical knowledge and market expertise. I always found the collaboration and communication with her and the entire office effective and pleasant. It's a family business, which means you quickly get to know the whole team and they also know your account.

We had to sell my mother's house on her behalf. After several conversations with various real estate agents, we consciously chose this smaller office, and our expectations were met. Marieke was well prepared and skilled, it felt right immediately. Short lines of communication so you quickly received answers to your questions, a personal approach with a great deal of knowledge of the region. Due to the group app (all employees and ourselves) all employees were aware and could respond; they also knew directly what it was about. All employees were friendly and correct. If it ever becomes necessary again, we will definitely choose van Santen again.

Excellent clear website with what is currently available in the area of houses for sale.

Good communication between realtor and seller. were also ready on weekends (on no working day)..

The conversations with Van Santen Makelaars were pleasant and yet professional. Whatever we wished for, it is still a significant event. The asking price proved to be excellent and the apartment was sold relatively quickly. Communication with the buyer, however, proceeded slowly, where we expected more action from the real estate agent. All in all, certainly recommended, because the most important things went smoothly.

Contact was excellent. Marieke's expertise is great and provides good advice with a calm demeanor.

We were excellently guided and directed in the right direction. The viewings were well organized, and we were constantly informed about the bids so that we knew everything. The further handling was neatly processed where we ourselves need not do anything. Everything is top, no remarks whatsoever.

The contract with the real estate agent was perfect. Through a joint app, we were well informed. Always able to call with questions, and always a good clear answer, and helpful. Definitely recommended.

It was a very pleasant conversation; the broker was well prepared and had a very plausible story about why the house had to be put on the market for that price. Also, pleasant guidance during the sale and contact with the buyers.

A very pleasant collaboration with short lines. Where I haven't had to worry about anything. Expert and reliable.

Nice opening conversation where, based on statistics, a realistic expectation was clearly set. The viewings were pleasantly short and combined as much as possible; all viewings were arranged within a week. When making an offer, there was clear knowledge of the financial situation of the purchasing party, which gives great confidence that if a bid is accepted, it will also be settled.

Marieke guided us very well through the sale of an apartment from an inheritance. She gave us expert advice on realistic sales expectations and the best steps before and during the sale. We always felt like we were in good hands, and the support from Van Santen real estate agents gave us a feeling of trust with a successful result.

Very pleasant collaboration. Often via the group app and that worked well for us. It was a nice smooth sale and the result for us is good. And what struck me was that whoever you spoke to from this office, they were all equally involved and informed.

Good and clear communication. Act promptly when needed and very nice guidance. They are all very friendly and professional. A realtor that is definitely recommended.

A real estate agency where you immediately get a pleasant feeling. They think along with you and are extremely flexible. Thanks to their rich history and genuine family feel, I wasn't worried at all about selling my house. I will always recommend Van Santen Makelaars to friends and family.

They are friendly, take the time for you, act immediately when you have a question, put everything clearly on paper

Here you are! As a buyer's agent, highly recommended. You are not just a number; the costs are clear and listed on the website. The aftercare is excellent. Are you still finding your way around Capelle and the surrounding area long after your purchase? They will assist you with advice and action. If you find these people, you’ll also find your dream house. That's how it went for me at least.

Very good, if we had been interested in a house, Marieke would have had an analysis ready within a day with points of attention. During a viewing, she has such an eye for detail and so much readily available knowledge that a structural survey is almost no longer necessary. And with the bids, a neat report with a clear justification with which you can make an offer well informed.

Easy and clear contact with the real estate agent! Good advice and pleasant guidance throughout the entire sales process. They are very friendly and professional!

A very fine team that takes care of everything neatly and handles everything for you! Very satisfied, good guidance and communication, in short the best real estate agent there is for us.

Good realtor you can trust and who remains discreet even in complex situations where parties are against each other.

Excellent contact, an in-app group within the seller/office ensures that there is always a good and accurate response.

Excellent explanation and guidance and helpful in everything that comes your way during the purchase and sale of the property

Contact with van Santen went very well. There is always someone reachable and informed, an advantage of a small office. Personal approach. Expert and solution-oriented.

Great help with the sale of our house. In addition, the quick contact via the app is especially recommended, so you can quickly stay informed about all developments. Thanks again!

My experience is that action was taken too quickly, which ultimately did not yield the best result. Due to our perseverance, it eventually worked out well. But because of this, I cannot recommend this broker.

Good contact, for example via WhatsApp. Responds quickly to questions etc. Good guidance during viewing.

Very satisfied with the help during the negotiation and purchase of the house. Good accessibility and clear information. Would definitely recommend this real estate agent.

Highly skilled brokerage team with a good understanding of the local market. They guided us well and were able to sell the house quickly.

I haven't had much to do with the sales. I was helped well. Always quick to respond to questions.

Good market knowledge, good price/quality ratio, good service and very helpful!! Top realtor!

Highly involved & experienced real estate agency, short lines/clear & responds very quickly to questions, worth recommending!

Nice, smooth and personal presentation. Short communication lines via app group. The real estate agent thinks along well about the sales strategy. Realistic approach to the housing market. Despite difficult market conditions with rising interest rates and high energy prices, the sales process was brought to a good end. Warmly recommended!

Excellent contact. Agent also willing to consult in the evening. Expert, honest answers and always neatly responded.

Excellent guidance when purchasing a home. Especially had a lot of contact with Cees and Sander. Expert. Transparent prices. When there are questions/requests, action is taken immediately. Hats off!

The realtor has very good and pleasant communication! Very nice to work with and I would definitely recommend them!

Very good, I received a clear answer to every question and they did their utmost to get everything sorted out well. We are very satisfied

Excellent contact via phone and app. In addition, good advice and, where necessary, a lot of consultation. They help with solving problems and jump in when needed.

Good communication; excellent guidance in a complex purchasing process; quick response to questions.

Our first experience with a house sales process. House was sold on behalf of parents/in-laws. Hence a different type of involvement. On average, everything went 'just fine'. What did strike us (but this isn’t the realtor’s fault), is that the selling party has to do quite a bit regarding ‘paperwork’. But well, that also gave some ‘experience’.

Contact was good. Were kept well informed. Not unimportant: apartment sold quickly.

Contact with the broker was good. The office and broker were easily accessible, communication also went well. I am satisfied with the result and the price that was achieved.

Pleasant and sufficient contact and guidance during the sale. Mutual initiative was sufficiently appreciated

Good communication. Quick to act. Good follow-up of potential buyers. I have used this realtor for both purchase and sale.

In a word, Excellent. The office is close to the house so if we couldn't manage something, we could be at the office within minutes. Very correctly treated. They kept us well informed about developments in the process.

Small team, with short lines and a pleasant personal approach where everyone within the team is well informed about the state of affairs, they serve the interests of the client well, would definitely choose this company again!

A buyer backed out in a special way. However, Van Santen was able to use that for a good price with the next buyer.

Incredibly well assisted, can't say anything else. Definitely a realtor to recommend. Glad our house could be sold so quickly.

I attended a viewing with Van Santen. Pleasant manner of interaction and gave honest answers to questions.

It's a strange housing market, I understand that. We had Van Santen real estate agents as our buyer's agent when purchasing our new home. Initially, things went quite well; our first conversation and the first bid together with one of the agents who would help us from beginning to end. Subsequently, she went on vacation and we were further assisted by the office manager. So not a proper real estate agent. We were lucky enough to know someone who is also a real estate agent, so for a double check, we sent her all the information about several houses we wanted to bid on. Where the office manager of Van Santen didn't see any strange things in, for example, the purchase agreement, my acquaintance could immediately point out 10 things that were wrong in the purchase agreement. There were many other things like that which the office manager didn't see and our acquaintance did. We didn't want to make a big deal of it, because we had everything double-checked and we also received certain discounts on, for example, viewings etc. What I really find astonishing is how we are being treated after the purchase process. We paid nicely, never made an issue of the fact that we were assisted by an office manager and still had to pay the amounts of a normal buyer's agent. Our apartment which we were leaving was also coincidentally sold by Van Santen. We rented this apartment so we had nothing to do with the sale of that apartment. However, they already had our data because we naturally asked them to be our buyer's agent. They had the luxury of being able to reach us directly. Therefore, we were often approached personally while certain appointments with our landlord (the seller of the apartment) had to be made. In addition, the tone in which we were addressed was very unfriendly 9 times out of 10. For example, there was a threat that it would be our fault if the buyer backed out if a second viewing could not be arranged on a certain day. Again: we had nothing to do with the sale of the apartment because we rented it. They should have approached the seller of that apartment and not us. The moment we paid for the buyer's agent, we were immediately no longer seen as customers. Customer has paid and is instantly unimportant. That’s how it feels. You can understand that we are left with a very bad aftertaste from this.

Pleasant no-nonsense real estate agency, professional, patient and provide good advice and feedback throughout the entire sales process, from initial consultation to sale.

We have contacted Marieke van Santen regarding the appraisal and sale of our house. We found this to be a very pleasant experience. Marieke is highly skilled and professional and thinks along with solutions. She is very familiar with the market and knows how to get things done! We wholeheartedly recommend Van Santen Makelaars.

Selling a house through Van Santen wasn't quite easy. Friendly and patient. I would definitely recommend Van Santen to potential home sellers. Also very friendly and well assisted by Sander, and he really keeps on top of things.

Nice to have been spoken to

Very well assisted from beginning to end by Marieke and her team. I can recommend everyone to work with this realtor.

An unbelievable amount of English items. I was there for Christmas, nicely decorated. Also a large assortment of English food products. Extremely kind owner.

Vanten Santen excellently helped us from the beginning to the end process. They took a lot of worries off our hands and guided us well. Very nice people who clearly have a passion for their work. All our questions were answered properly.

Very professional and involved team. Happy to return to them in the future. I would also highly recommend them.

Van Santen arranged the purchase of our new house and the sale of our existing property for us. Marieke makes a proactive and competent impression on us. In the negotiation, she really earned money for us. She herself and the people in the office are easily accessible. Pleasant team to work with.

Purchase, sale, appraisal.. Always good personal and fast service at van Santen. They always think along and are flexible where needed. Their knowledge of the market in the region gives them a step ahead of the rest. Top people!

good advice about buying and selling opportunities

Had a very pleasant introductory meeting with Marieke. You immediately notice that she has a lot of experience. Marieke had prepared the meeting very well, and the justification for the asking price was also well substantiated. All in all, a real estate agent that I can wholeheartedly recommend to everyone. What I personally find a great plus is that Marieke is also reachable outside office hours. For questions or to discuss something, she takes the time for you. You feel heard here, you are not just a number

For years an established name in Capelle Schenkel, where I grew up. Now, after a period of 8 years living on the other side of the country, I've found a lovely house near this office and am returning to my 'roots' in the region. As a buyer, I also certainly have a good feeling; questions are answered quickly and openly without any 'mysterious' nonsense. This gives buyers confidence in a good and honest handling.
