BVL Makelaars

BVL Makelaars has fully taken care of me from start to finish. The professional team always acts quickly and appropriately, really thinks with you and gives clear, honest and expert advice. Thanks to their considerate and advisory approach, the whole process felt smooth and carefree. A definite recommendation! Mel Raboen

The sales process went smoothly and professionally. The real estate agent communicated clearly, thought along well and ensured a smooth, carefree sale.

I joined BurgerVanLeeuwen's office in 1990. A trusted environment for me since then.

Mark has helped us greatly. Within two months we found our dream house. His expertise, sharp eye and undivided attention we experienced as extremely pleasant. We definitely know where to find BVL Makelaars again for a next (buying/selling)!

It was always for rent at BVL real estate agents. Now they decided to sell it. They immediately started with that. For all questions there was a clear explanation and they were certainly listened to and executed immediately. So thank the whole team.

Professionally and pleasantly helped by Mark from BVL! Good connection from the start, felt at home with the property and took us along well regarding the asking price etc. Nice concise lines in communication. Recommended.

De betrouwbaarheid en bereidheid van Ted om ons op zo korte termijn te helpen waren uitstekend. Door de jaren heen heeft hij consequent resultaten geleverd die aan onze verwachtingen voldeden, telkens wanneer we hem en zijn team om hun diensten vroegen. Dit getuigt niet alleen van zijn professionaliteit en hoogwaardige werk, maar ook van zijn sterke persoonlijke waarden. Het is altijd een plezier om met hem samen te werken en ik beveel Ted en BVL Makelaars van harte aan als het beste makelaarskantoor dat u in Den Haag kunt vinden. Ik kijk uit naar toekomstige samenwerkingen.

Mark has helped us a lot in finding our dream house! Extremely happy with his service, couldn't have asked for better! I would recommend BVL to everyone!

We recently sold our home through BVL Real Estate and are very satisfied with the entire guidance process. From the first moment, we received a clear plan of action, in which the strategy for the sale was clearly explained. They knew exactly how to present our house attractively, with professional photos and a well-thought-out presentation that really made a difference. Throughout the whole process, they kept us constantly informed, were always easily reachable, and truly thought along with us. Thanks to their commitment and involvement, everything went smoothly without any problems, and our home was sold faster than expected. A real estate agent we would definitely recommend to everyone.

Sold quite quickly for slightly above the asking price. Nice people at BvL. Very customer-oriented and knowledgeable.

Very nice real estate agent. We have been extremely well assisted over the past months by Ted, Mark, Bo and Vera. We had many viewings with Mark, and he was always friendly, considerate, and provided us with good and honest advice about the properties. Mark is patient and empathetic and understands how exciting and sometimes unfortunately also disappointing the search for a home can be. Ultimately, Mark's advice ensured that we were able to purchase a lovely home in an unknown market for us. If you are looking for a buying agent, I cannot recommend BVL wholeheartedly! :)

Geweldig, Makelaar! Mark en zijn team hebben het huis in recordtijd verkocht! Professioneel en zeer responsief. Ze kennen de markt perfect. Uitstekende service!!

We have now used the services of BVL for the 3rd time in 10 years. And it was as usual: very pleasant, professional, honest (!), and with a nice outcome when selling our house.

Actually, quite unexpectedly, we decided to sell the house and of course we chose BVL and because they were able to determine the right price, the house sold very quickly despite the holiday season and they assisted me very well throughout the entire process. BVL is absolutely recommended!

Everything handled in a pleasant and professional manner. With adequate feedback. From the start to completion, there was personal contact.

We are incredibly pleased with the help of Ted and Mark. From start to finish, the guidance was excellent. In the final phase, Ted went the extra mile for us. Thanks to his commitment, we are now proud owners of our first house. We would like to thank the team of BVL enormously. A real recommendation for everyone looking for a realtor!

It was very nice to collaborate with Ted and Mark. Thanks to their expertise, we were able to find a wonderful house within our budget that meets all of our requirements. Thank you so much!

Due to the sale of an apartment in Duttendel. Our apartment had been for sale for some time without any bids, then I contacted Peter to see if he wanted to take over the sale. Mark had new photos taken with a more personal touch, we were very satisfied with that. Peter started the sale very actively and the sale was completed super quickly. We are very pleased with the approach, very active and professional.

We hebben een zeer goede ervaring gehad met de verkoop van ons appartement via BVL. Ze waren erg professioneel, goed bereikbaar en efficiënt. Ze hielden echt rekening met ons project en gaven ons perfect advies. We kunnen BVL van harte aanbevelen als u uw huis wilt verkopen of kopen.

In a short time, we found our dream house. We were looking ourselves, but with the help of our real estate agent, it went much faster than we thought. By using a financial advisor who was introduced to us by our real estate agent, we knew exactly what our budget would be and we could offer without any financial conditions. This was enormously in our favor. Our real estate agent made time for us to go along to viewings where we saw genuine opportunities. Every week we received new potential homes forwarded to us. When reviewing the purchase agreement, the real estate agent took the time for questions. Also, for the notary, our real estate agent had several offices that we could choose from. We experienced the collaboration with our real estate agent as very pleasant; we could always contact him with questions, reassured us and helped us in making realistic assessments regarding bidding. Thank you very much!

Excellent assistance with the sale of the apartment

Excellent service! Thanks again Mark Jonkman.

Top broker. Goes above and beyond in terms of service to ensure that the apartment was sold. Nothing was too much.

Het hele BVL-team was ontzettend professioneel en behulpzaam tijdens het aankoopproces van ons huis. Mark was zeer grondig bij elk huis dat we bekeken en reageerde snel op onze berichten. Hij was ook uitstekend en eerlijk tijdens de biedingsonderhandelingen. Zonder hem hadden we ons huis niet kunnen kopen!

A very pleasant experience with BVL Makelaars and especially Mark. Without him, we certainly wouldn't have managed to find such a beautiful house so quickly. We recommend everyone to work with this agency if you are looking for or selling a gem in the lovely The Hague.

BVL Makelaars excellently guided us through the sale of our house. The entire team provided good guidance. You can speak of a reliable partner in an exciting sales process for us. They were easy to reach when we had questions, even in the evening or on weekends. Good feel for the market. The family is more than satisfied and we are very happy that we chose BVL.

This is really a bad realtor. They just lie to your face. A property where there were already multiple complaints is rented out without mentioning anything about it. Fix everything if you want to leave after three months because the noise pollution is too heavy and you're stuck with a contract. I wouldn't do business with this realtor.

In early 2025, a house was purchased in The Hague through Mark from BVL. Everything was well arranged, good advice and support during the purchase. Definitely recommended! 👍 …

Very well assisted by Mark in the purchase of our new house in The Hague. Good advice, pleasant contact and professional office. Very satisfied!

I immediately felt a good feeling with Mark Jonkman when we had an exploratory conversation about the sale of my apartment. The fact that I have made a good choice based on this feeling has been confirmed during the sales process. Mark is very pleasant to deal with and easily accessible for questions or advice. I didn't have to chase anything, and both Mark and the office communicated proactively. In short, everything went smoothly. Many thanks!

Careful communication and very careful, truly recommended. An apartment in a complex where multiple apartments were for sale is still sold quite quickly.

Highly skilled and the expert for all homes in The Hague and surrounding areas. Can only recommend BVL!

BVL realtor we have a great time for buying en selling our house. They really concern with the client

Our apartment sold within no time with the photos that show your house at its best. The approach of everyone within BvL is involved, active, professional and personal. They keep you well informed about the viewings and the steps in the process. No question is too crazy. Happy with the service!

Excellent guidance, 3 years ago with the rental and now with the sale. Sold very quickly for a good price.

Mark Jonkman ensured everything went smoothly and was neatly arranged. Good assessment of a realistic asking price and final market price.

The real estate agency is very open/ friendly and accessible, who are clear and transparent to the client.

Top. Use this broker. Much knowledge. Hardworking. Excellent advice. Well-positioned in the local market.

I knew what I wanted, found it through Funda, and then needed it fast. Although I'm Dutch, I'm new in the Netherlands and heard it's not easy to get what you want. Ted Luijck was recommended to me, and with no further homework I took my chance with him. Two things gained my trust immediately: he said 'for me (as in for himself) this is fun' with the respectful understanding that for me it's an investment, and secondly, we shared the cut-to-the-chase attitude. We met once just qu…

The contact went well. He was easily accessible and generally responded quickly. Sales were successful!

Top company, very goal-oriented and with results! Sold within a week for above our asking price!!!

We've been working on this for quite some time, it was initially sold but people couldn't secure the financing, so the entire process had to start again. The second time around, it was sold within 3 weeks and €8000 more than the first time, but still below the asking price. Guidance was good.

BVL is a great broker. Peter and his team professionally and expertly helped us from the beginning with the sale of our home. Everything was clearly explained, which made the sale run smoothly and without worries. Communication was very easy and we were kept informed of every step. Our house was sold almost immediately for a fantastic price. Thank you for the excellent service.

The house sold quickly, which meant there wasn't much contact with the real estate agent. Pleasant people, good communication.

I had an excellent experience with my broker, Mark Jonkman, at BVL. Thanks to his expert guidance, my property was sold quickly and at a fantastic price. I thoroughly recommend his services! :-)

The contact went very smoothly, we were well assisted! We are very satisfied, and would definitely recommend this realtor!

Good communication and explanation of the situation. Flexible in arranging appointments and handling the purchase agreement. Expert and helps with advice regarding a financial advisor and building inspection.

We have been using the services of the BVL team for many years. Characteristic are the high level of service and clear communication. Top team!

Fast, expert, helpful and friendly!

Multiple houses have been bought and sold by BVL through me over the past 35 years. Always with good care! Extremely attentive, a realtor who is useful! Not just talking, but doing, that's what I like. A recommendation for everyone!!!

Despite difficult times, BVL brokers have shown great commitment with expert knowledge.

Very clear and straightforward advice about the market, the price, and expectations. Fast and easy communication and handles things very adequately and quickly. It was a very pleasant collaboration that I would gladly repeat.

Look back very satisfied with the pleasant and professional service provided when searching for and purchasing our apartment.

In an uncertain period, Mark excellently helped us with the sale of our house. We look back with full satisfaction on the service that BVL Makelaars offered us!

We asked BvL to find us a new home as well as sell our existing house. In both cases, we experienced BVL as professional: calm, collaborative, excellently accessible and with clear knowledge of the market. Viewings were arranged quickly and always took place together with one of the gentlemen; they provided good advice and tips. During both the purchase and sale negotiations, they acted helpfully, expertly and clearly. Communication points during the process were always resolved smoothly and pleasantly.

I can wholeheartedly recommend BVL brokers. The friendliness, expertise, and speed with which they act is superb. I am overjoyed with the purchase of my dream house. Many thanks Ted for everything.

Already worked with BvL before, so the collaboration has always been good. They are the broker we recommend for finding and selling homes in The Hague and surrounding areas.

We were incredibly well guided by Mark when selling our apartment. It did take a long time due to various negative developments in the housing market, but with his tireless dedication he managed to pull us through. A reliable and pleasant real estate agent!

Very satisfied with Mark! Good communication, short lines and everything discussed. Thank you!

Mark has helped us tremendously as our real estate agent, especially his commitment was nice. His professional guidance made the entire process run smoothly; we wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable real estate agent.

I was very well assisted with the sale of my house. I wholeheartedly recommend this real estate agency to Ms. Vrolijkr.

BvL you guys are awesome! I am very grateful to you for everything you have done and still do. Mark, Ted and also Nathalie, thank you. I can recommend this office to everyone!

We are very satisfied with Burger van Leeuwen Garantiemakelaars and in particular with Mark Jonkman. Mark helped us extremely professionally, friendly and enthusiastically with the sale of our house. Thank you for the good care and the quick sale!

Burger VanLeeuwen Garantiemakelaars is a very fine, small, dedicated and downright friendly company in the heart of Scheveningen. Not only knowledge of houses, but also of people. Ted Luijk was very helpful and accessible. I felt enormously supported and in good hands in the -quite- stressful process of selling and moving. All confidence in this real estate agency!!

We have had the displeasure of meeting many real estate agents due to the purchase of our new house. We were regularly astonished by the frankly appalling work ethic of many brokers. A mistake that is apparently easily made when demand is much greater than supply. And then we met Mark Jonkman… Punctual and excellently prepared. He took the time and pointed out the style elements, light, and surroundings. A completely different way of working than we had experienced up to that point. He was strict about the price but did give us some considerations in case we wanted to place a bid. A breath of fresh air. The house in question didn't become ours, but we did find our real estate agent in the process: Burger van Leeuwen and especially Mark Jonkman. The distinguishing feature of BVL is the ability to empathize with the needs of the client and the buyer, as we have experienced. In a market dominated by fleeting behavior, BVL also makes a difference by taking the time and working carefully. We ultimately purchased a beautiful house and sold our house for a very good price. And now for the best part: we see the buyer of our old house regularly because he is delighted with his purchase, and we speak weekly with the selling party of our new house. This is an example of how it should be done. I can wholeheartedly recommend Burger van Leeuwen real estate agents.

Mark and the team from Burger Van Leeuwen were fantastic throughout our first home purchase. They always gave us the feeling that we were their top priority and were of invaluable value during the viewing of the different houses we looked at. I would definitely recommend them to anyone who wants to buy or rent.

Mark Jonkman was mijn makelaar en ik ben zeer tevreden over zijn service. Hij heeft me door alle noodzakelijke stappen heen begeleid, van het vinden van een huis tot de aankoop, wat vooral voor een expat zoals ik van onschatbare waarde was. …

Both during purchase and sale, very good guidance. Professional, no-nonsense, and engaged!

Very helpful and involved in the entire process. Thanks for all the help!

Good and pleasant contact. Very knowledgeable and professional. They think along well and handling is perfect!

Burger van Leeuwen really helped us, good knowledge of the market and advice regarding selling prices, but also involved in a process that was exciting for us as private individuals. Mark, thank you very much!

Our realtor or a colleague from BVL always met us at the properties we viewed and walked through the property with us, highlighting both the good and bad points. They had a good knowledge of real estate and the market. Mark responded very quickly, especially when we were bidding on houses. He understood buying in the Netherlands and was helpful as this is our first time buying a house here. We certainly recommend BVL.

Incredibly pleasant experience, they are very helpful and flexible. Always think along with you. Definitely recommended!

Expert brokers with market knowledge and good advice regarding price and strategy, which resulted in a quick sale of my apartment. Careful feedback on viewings and other relevant updates. I enjoyed working together and wholeheartedly recommend Burger Van Leeuwen Garantiemakelaars.

Mr. Burger arrived almost on time to provide information about possible services. It soon became clear, however, that he was explaining all sorts of things that Dutch people would like, instead of listening to what I as a customer wanted...

Both the purchase and sale of an apartment went very well with BvL. Friendly, helpful team that takes care of everything perfectly for you. Recommended!

Nice, down-to-earth realtor. Professional, skilled, accessible and involved. A realtor who is close to his clients, seeks creative solutions where desired. And also just nice. Mieke Pennock

Zeer professionele en goede service. Proactief en vriendelijk. …

Peter Burger is an experienced real estate agent who knows his trade and truly delivers on what he commits to. Very reliable, honest and friendly, commercially good and always accessible. He sold my apartment with his team in the higher segment within a week above the asking price.

Fast and professional help, good experience with them in purchasing and selling.

Burger Van Leeuwen expertly, swiftly and pleasantly guided us with the sale of the house Wilhelminalaan 1, Kievit, Wassenaar. The house was soon sold and the buyers of the house also had a pleasant experience.

Burger Van Leeuwen perfectly handled the sale of my house. All the work was taken out of my hands from beginning to end. I was kept very well informed throughout the entire process. And I could contact them with all questions. I can recommend them to everyone!

I had several conversations with different realtors before making a choice. I rented something temporarily and was looking for an affordable, sustainable, and nice place for myself where renting was no longer an option. Bürger van Leeuwen ...

I can wholeheartedly recommend Mark and the rest of the BvL team. Not only have they helped us find our dream home, but through their strategy during the bidding process, they also earned back their service fees.

Disclaimer: Mijn partner heeft vlak voor mij een recensie in het Nederlands geschreven, maar ik wilde mijn ervaring ook delen om hopelijk niet-Nederlandstaligen te helpen die op zoek zijn naar een eigen huis. …

Very pleasant experience regarding the buying and selling of my home. Definitely recommended!

Everything you can expect from a real estate agent and a little more, personal attention.

Some time ago, our apartment became available. Burger van Leeuwen was consulted on how to proceed. We received the advice to make a small adjustment. That would make it rent better…

Tight and friendly service without detours during the purchase of our new house! Knowledge of the subject matter and of the neighborhoods in which they operate.

Verschrikkelijk. Ik heb ze meer dan een week geleden gecontacteerd en ze hebben nooit gereageerd. Ik ben een koper met een contant bod. Blijkbaar is dat niet goed genoeg voor ze. Verspil je tijd niet aan dit makelaarskantoor. Update: Ik heb …

Very pleasant party to work with! House sold quickly and communication around the sale went smoothly.

Short lines, clear and adequate! Worth recommending! …

For the purchase of my house, Ted was present at all important moments, he quickly resolved any problems and supported me in a pleasant way during the registration procedure. Thank you!

Top broker with market knowledge. Good service and are ready to assist you. They will guide you through the entire sales process.

The sales process was friendly, helpful and expert from beginning to end. Highly recommended!!!

Very well received!! 👍 …

A normal tour of the house, couldn't possibly do that? Was back outside in 2 minutes. Thanks for the bad service.
