Not even worth 1 star!

Wow.. I didn't know a company could be this bad.

One thing they are good at is writing off the rent every month. *edit 13-12 The quote in the reaction below comes from an email (which is newer than this review). For context: an invoice of €500 was sent without explanation. I had to first ask for clarification. Upon receiving that explanation, I thanked them politely. Furthermore, we have had much more contact and raised issues that were resolved considerably less smoothly.

This company/the people who work for this company are a bunch of scammers. The number of square meters you pay for is not what you actually have. They don't honor their agreements. No wonder they had to sell several properties through the receiver. They also still send 'invoices' two years later, claiming they need to be paid while they no longer own the property.

Overall, only positive words about Solide. Contacted back then to find the living space suitable for me and found it very quickly! Communication is always great and problems are immediately taken over and resolved. As far as I know, Solide is 100% recommended to everyone!!! Top company.

Absolutely worthless rental company. Not even worthy of 1 star. Agreements are not kept. Simple issues are ignored and as a tenant you have to constantly chase them to get anything done. Maintenance reports remain outstanding for months, and then they only solve the problem but do nothing about the damage. The housing shortage in Groningen is high, but do yourself a huge favor and don't rent from this company. Most hopeless bunch of landlords in Groningen. Also take a look at the Sikkom articles about this landlord. In short - DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY.

Several years ago, I rented a studio through this agency (then called Vastgoed Beheer Groningen). The fact that a company changes its name is often already ominous. Also, the current location of Solide Vastgoed Beheer is regularly removed from Google Maps so that people cannot leave reviews. They offer little service for the (high) rent you pay. Emails are not answered or only after repeated insistence. Requesting a second key is a drama, where you are referred to a third party because you received the wrong key. Also, insufficient insight is given into the (service) costs that you pay per month. I don't have a good feeling about this intermediary. Update March 2018: final inspection when leaving the rental property was experienced as unpleasant. The employee in question arrived late and upon arrival it turned out that the new tenants were present at the final inspection (which I thought was strange). You also, as a tenant, have to fill in the preliminary inspection report yourself (where you must indicate what you, as a tenant, would need to repair/restore to the original condition). This really seems like a task for the landlord, who should carry out the (pre)inspection well before the contract expires (and not, as in my case, one day before the contract ends). In this way, as a tenant, you cannot reasonably perform any remedial work.

if you think you're paying a fixed monthly amount for rent including service costs and gas and water! you'll get a fabricated HIGH final bill at the end of the year! !If you call and ask for a specification. you will be referred to email. where you ultimately receive no response even if you send it 10 times. then it is automatically debited from your account. I used to pay 60 euros p/m for internet. at the end of the year you get a bill that you have to pay 500 euros! as mentioned earlier, no response and specification and it is debited from your account. Service costs, cleaning costs etc exactly the same fabricated account. google sikkom solide vast goed for more info! P.S Solide I know you're reading this and you'll probably put a reply here saying contact us and we'll investigate further for you! TOO LATE THAT’S WHAT I DID! kind regards KARMA

Years ago I rented an apartment through this scammer.... Had to pay cleaning costs of €130 for a 1-room apartment that was 6 months old. I had also cleaned myself! I also spent some time in the cold because the heating didn't work (1.5 months). After insisting, I did not receive any discount for those months. Which, of course, makes sense since they did not deliver all products/services I paid for. Back then a rent of about €1230! Don't know why my review disappeared. So to warn the rest, it is back here again. :)

Short lines and you are well supported throughout the entire journey. Visited the office once, familiar atmosphere! The gentlemen of commerce seem to think quite a bit of themselves, but that's alright and doesn't bother me. Definitely recommend this club!

Making appointments is possible. Whether Solide keeps to the agreements is another story. There has been (of the approximately 25 times (!!)) not once that Solide has kept her appointments. Rent elsewhere if you get even a slight chance. Don't make my mistake.

Very bad, also in communication. Emails are not answered, while it concerns the safety of tenants.

AVOID Scammers first class. Permits not in order. Residents always the victims!

Not often do you get helped somewhere as quickly and effectively as with Solide! Very satisfied and would definitely recommend it!

Good things done with Sandor from Solide Vastgoed Beheer, everything was arranged quickly and the contact was good.

Very poor communication, does not keep appointments and places the responsibility on the tenant.

Fraudulent party. This company has a business goal and that is purely to make money (at the expense of others)

Unable to reach them by phone, via email you are completely ignored. They do want to receive something every month, but to actually perform any maintenance work, they stay far away from you. Very bad and worthless company!! I'll still save the photos for a while (don't know how long yet) of the total backlog of maintenance

Transparent, good communication. Definitely recommended!

Extremely satisfied with Robert's communication and working methods!

Very satisfied with the collaboration! Robert is very accessible and pleasant to deal with. He thinks along well and ensures smooth, enjoyable communication.

Much is promised on the front end, however things are handled poorly afterwards. Poorly accessible by phone!

I was an international student who stayed in the house for approximately 9 months during the 2022-2023 academic year. Until now, I haven't really had the time and capacity to write a review. It was quite a terrible experience, which began from the first day we moved in. When I moved in, the kitchen was a mess (I have attached a video of the kitchen at the moment I entered the house). There were empty bottles lying around, and crumbs and stains etc. on the counter. Trash cans in the backyard were quite full. Next to the trash cans, there was waste piled up. It took one of my roommates and me 4 hours to clean up the kitchen. We couldn't follow the waste collection schedule because there was garbage left over from the previous tenants. There were 2 abandoned containers in the backyard that were no longer accepted for waste collection by the authorities. I heard from Omrin that those containers hadn’t been accepted for a year. Those containers were still full of trash when I moved in and had made an appointment with Omrin to pick them up. During my stay, I had to contact the real estate agent, Robert, several times, but mostly I received slow responses from him, sometimes he didn't even respond to my emails. Slowly, like a week or two. I sometimes remembered my roommates and I asked him coincidentally the same, and he responded to my roommates except for me. I received no response from him after sending multiple emails at different times. Once I had moved out, I told him that he should keep a letter for me because it was important, and I wasn't in the Netherlands at that time. I asked if he could refer me to a contact person who lives in that house so that I can talk directly with them about picking up my letter. He told me that he would be happy to keep it for me, but after a while he told me that I could just ring the doorbell and ask for the letter. I stood at the door several times until someone was home. However, everything was cleared up and there was no sign of my letter. Honestly, this isn't the biggest problem. However, it is still an example of how irresponsible an agent can be. The worst thing for me in this situation is that our deposit was written off without a legitimate reason. As mentioned above, the house was full of garbage on the day we moved in. We couldn’t empty the containers on the day we moved out, and it's not our responsibility to do so if they are left behind. Apparently Robert didn't think so. I paid €385 as a deposit, and he returned me €274.12. I asked for the bill to check whether we consumed more g/w/e than we paid, but he did not send me the exact bill. I sent him multiple emails requesting one, but he kept dodging providing the documents. I asked him why the deposit was deducted and he said that he had to pay for cleaning up the garbage. Oh, don’t get me wrong, so why was the house such a mess when we moved in? It's been almost a year since this happened, but it still gets on my nerves. I have attached our screenshots of our conversations on WhatsApp. When I sent him the video that I made when I arrived there, and also the video attached to this comment, he claimed that it wasn’t true, and then sent me a screenshot of a video he made in June/2022, which he showed me during a house visit while showing me the video. He claimed that the photo showed how the house was on the day we moved in. That's practically nonsense. The guy didn't even try to beat the recording date. I moved out on 31/8/2022, he showed me a screenshot of a video he made in June/2022, saying that this is exactly the status of the house when we moved in. This has been THE WORST rental experience of my life. I have consulted some legal advice and they said that the contract was very tricky. Some articles were removed, but remained ominous. The advisor also said that he knew we wouldn't pay for the legal service to sue him, because it would cost more than the amount we lost.

Beware of this fraudulent landlord. (See also the news report on sikkom) Robert Ternede is a known scammer in Groningen and does not hesitate to threaten with violence when payment is late.

After renting a property from Nova Vastgoed in the Rivierenbuurt for some time, I can recommend them to everyone. Had good contact with Mr. Ter Nede. A few times when there was an issue with a defective tap, it was resolved that same day.

Good and open communication. A lot of interest from potential buyers. Good guidance. The spacious view and the facilities around the house played a major role. The forums via Funda were excellent.

I would rather live on the street than rent a house from Lucas Klamer again. Literally the worst rental experience I've ever had.

Words cannot describe how unprofessional and bad this rental company is, especially Lucas Klamer himself. He is extremely unprofessional and doesn't seem to make any effort for his work.

It is not recommended to work with this company, especially not with the owner

I would not recommend anyone to work with this ‘enterprise’, even now that the housing crisis in Groningen continues. Mr. Klamer has a tendency to avoid contact, especially when it comes to finances. In my case, the down payment was not returned more than 3 months after leaving the rental property despite the absence of any obligation regarding damages etc. Furthermore, reporting damage to properties is also problematic; there are simply no responses.

Luuk was the property manager for the owner. During the years, we have had communication via email. As a tenant, I have had a positive experience with him. Generally, I feel that I can trust him.

People, do NOT go into the sea with this man! Communication isn't bad, but simply not present. Mr. doesn't keep appointments and tries to rip you off wherever possible.

Very satisfied with this realtor. The realtor has excellent knowledge of the local market. A professional and reliable company. Quick, short updates on progress. Excellent settlement. Reliable!

If I could give minus 5 stars, I would. I lived in a shared flat for over 4 years and managed my Klamer. I stayed there because it was good enough for the Groningen situation. However, Klamer entered our house without any prior notice (illegally), even went so far as to simply open doors and walk into our rooms, but denied that, even though other roommates saw him doing it. Reimbursements would take an eternity and only happen after much insistence on our part, and usually are 'half-baked' (not done properly). 1.5 years after I moved out, I still haven’t received my full deposit for no reason whatsoever. Don't be fooled: he will be responsive, nice and attentive at first, get you to sign and receive your money (you don’t even have to let him withdraw the money from your account, you can simply transfer it yourself, although he will tell you otherwise, check the law), but once he has your money, he will much prefer to ignore you rather than take care of his tenants. Luckily I usually had a good time, although that was thanks to my roommates and our humor.

Real estate agency Lucas Klamer manages our real estate in Groningen. We are very happy with them: problems are adequately resolved, they collaborate on changes, and they respond to our questions quickly. As far as we're concerned, definitely worth 5 stars!

He has done several viewings with us and we find him to be an engaged broker.

The contact was pleasant, a direct line. The real estate agent genuinely thought along with us. He gave good advice and paid positive attention to us, even during the time that we were searching.

Great experience, Van Hemmen was easy to reach, thought along and was very expert. Good cooperation, we recommend him!

Extremely reliable and loyal man. Heart for his customers, thinks along well and is very accurate. A real recommendation.
