Kai was zeer professioneel, behulpzaam en vriendelijk!

I had a fantastic experience with The Rental Agency. They were extremely helpful, professional and did everything to make our move go smoothly. On the very first day in our new apartment we ran into an unexpected problem. Chantal and her team reacted immediately with great service and genuine care for the comfort and well-being of my family. Their dedication and support exceeded my expectations and I can't thank them enough. I wholeheartedly recommend The Rental Agency to anyone looking for exceptional service.

What an experience with this moving company... On the preliminary contract they gave us, the address was incorrect... It looked like a scam. Fortunately, we noticed it! According to them, it was just a small mistake... We gave them a second chance because we needed housing. They sent us the contract, but some parts were unclear, especially one. When we asked questions, they weren't answered professionally, which only increased our doubts about the reliability of this company. Ultimately, we decided to look for another company that takes better care of its customers, and then they also asked us to pay cancellation fees... Scandalous.

We had a terrible experience with Rental Agency. As expats and new arrivals in the country, we relied on Rental Agency to help us find a place and with the moving process. But they were not at all helpful. They did not share any housing offers with us. We had to search ourselves. During check-in, they did not inspect the property and did not report any existing damage that was already there. Also during check-out, we received no help from them. I would not recommend anyone to use their services.

Ik ben echt tevreden over de samenwerking met The Rental Agency. Het team is altijd snel, professioneel en weet goed hoe ze dingen efficiënt aanpakken.

We hebben al twee keer met Chantal en haar team samengewerkt voor de verhuur van ons pand en beide keren was de ervaring fantastisch. Een echte aanrader!

Wees voorzichtig met Chantal als je een expat bent en huurder/huurder. Bij het inchecken heeft ze expres enkele reeds bestaande schade niet gemeld die duidelijk zichtbaar was op een van haar foto's, zoals grote krassen op de vloer van de vorige huurder en verfspatten op de muur. Bij het uitchecken behandelde ze me als een kind en probeerde ze me de schuld te geven. Gelukkig heb ik bij het inchecken zelf foto's gemaakt die bewezen dat ze het bij het verkeerde eind had wat betreft alle schade die ze vond. Bij het uitchecken maakte ze zelfs opmerkingen over belachelijke dingen zoals wat stofdeeltjes op een lichtschakelaar en een kruimel in een la, en zei dat het appartement professioneel schoongemaakt moest worden. Wat in werkelijkheid niet waar was, want in het huurcontract stond dat het appartement alleen geveegd hoefde te worden. Ze zei dat ze een spinnenweb in de slaapkamer had gevonden en vroeg zelfs of ik er "nachtmerries" over had gehad. Ze sprak Nederlands met de verhuurder, dus ik kon het niet begrijpen. Gelukkig deed de verhuurder het juiste: ze herinnerde zich dat de krassen van haar vorige collega-huurder waren en nam niets van mijn borg af. Het was de meest vreselijke en vernederende ervaring die ik in 10 jaar in Nederland heb gehad. Als u de verhuurder bent, kunt u er zeker van zijn dat ze waarschijnlijk geweldig zal zijn en aan uw kant zal staan ​​om ervoor te zorgen dat de huurder een deel van zijn borg kwijtraakt.

Worked with Chantal and Mark already 3 times, very nice! Decisive, honest, respond quickly to emails including my questions, I am very satisfied!

Chantal en Mark zijn fantastisch en erg behulpzaam. Tijdens het hele proces hebben ze me geholpen en mijn vragen snel beantwoord, vooral omdat ik vanuit een ander land verhuisde. Ze hebben ook een tijdelijke internetverbinding voor me geregeld. Ik beveel ze van harte aan.

Ik heb mijn appartement via TRA gehuurd. Mark en Chantal waren allebei fantastisch, flexibel en hadden veel begrip voor het feit dat expats soms informatie voorgekauwd krijgen die de meeste Amsterdammers al kennen. Ze waren geduldig, vriendelijk, communiceerden goed en het was een absoluut plezier om via hen te huren.

Geweldige ervaring met de jongens: ze konden zelfs helpen bij het regelen van verhuur vanuit het buitenland, reageerden snel, hielpen bij het aansluiten van alle nutsvoorzieningen en regelden zelfs een late check-in bij de woning (mijn verhuisvlucht arriveerde laat in de avond). Ik wens het team veel succes! Speciale dank aan Mark en Chantal voor hun uitstekende ondersteuning en flexibiliteit.

👍 …

Fantastische klantenservice. Mark was altijd vriendelijk, behulpzaam, informatief, reageerde snel en was professioneel. Als expat die tijdens een pandemie verhuisde, heeft The Rental Agency de stress van de verhuizing echt weggenomen! Bedankt voor alles, Mark en team :)

We have been working with Martin for years and I can wholeheartedly recommend him. He is very professional, knows the Amsterdam market inside out, and is a pleasure to work with.

Martin is a very experienced and expert real estate agent who has helped me several times in recent years. I have always been very satisfied with his services and would recommend him without hesitation.

Today I am going to view a house that is for sale with Mr. Martin van Gelder. I had a 20 minute appointment and took photos of the house, both inside and outside, including the fridge (to check for black mold). Mr. Martin said that this was very impolite, whereupon I removed the photo of the fridge. Afterwards he did not allow me to take any more photos. He said: 'I don't understand what value these photos have, all the photos and videos are already on Funda.' 'It is very impolite to take photos.' 'No one else may take photos.' ... He was very impatient and distant. Therefore I decided not to go further, because I cannot fulfill my duty as a buyer to inspect the house. I have already bought and sold 3 houses, and viewed many more, and have never heard anything like this before. Can someone tell me if he is right that a house buyer may not take photos? Or has Mr. Gelder also told you something like this? I am not sure if this is discrimination, if he allows some people to take photos and not others. It's also a pity for the seller, potential buyers are discouraged by this.

I would like to thank Mr. Ben Koch for the warm, professional and efficient handling of our case. It was a pleasure to work with your company and achieve our goal better than we had expected. Thank you very much!!!

Wij hebben ons huis zeer succesvol verkocht via 'zelfverkopen.nl'. En...het was echt niet moeilijk. Wij vinden het percentage van een reguliere makelaar te vors! De geïrriteerde aankoopmakelaars die ons vroegen waarom we het zo deden legden uit dat hun pand en auto betaalt moeten worden, maar deze zaken blijken overbodig. Zelf ken je je huis als geen ander! Geen makelaar kan dit evenaren. Kopers vinden het uiteraard heel fijn om de huidige bewoner(s) te kunnen spreken. Normaliter moet je je woning uit voor een bezichtiging en ben je ontzettend benieuwd wie er komt kijken. Je krijgt een update van de makelaar en bent in afwachting. Nu met 'zelf verkopen' worden professionele foto's en plattegronden gemaakt, je maakt zelf een mooie tekst en alles staat vervolgens netjes op Funda. Vervolgens heb je direct contact met de kijker, maak je zelf afspraken en blijf je thuis. Ik moet toegeven dat ons huis zeer geliefd is en de kijkers enorm enthousiast waren. Dat maakte de verkoop echt leuk en eenvoudig. Wij vonden het heel fijn om a.h.v. de gesprekken al aan te voelen welke kant het op kon gaan. Ook ons tweede huis zullen wij zeker op deze manier verkopen!

Haalt woningen offline van Funda en plaatst ze zeer kort daarna weer opnieuw alsof het een nieuw aangeboden huis is.

Tevreden met de service voor de betaalde prijs, dankjewel Benno.

Works great if you want to sell it yourself with support from an (online) NVM real estate agent.

Why engage another ‘ordinary’ real estate agent when you can save so much money? Clear communication from Benno and his team, everything arranged super quickly and easily. Can recommend it to everyone.

Benno excellently helped us with selling our house. We ended up at Zelfverkopen after searching for an affordable real estate agent without commission. At Zelfverkopen, you do have the advantages of a skilled realtor who helps with determining the sales price, the property photos, and measuring. When there are questions, time is always taken to provide a clear explanation. You also receive a window sign. The only thing you really have to do yourself is writing the sales text (you will receive enough tips + examples on Funda for this) and (scheduling) the viewings. We found it very nice to be able to take the time during the viewings to convey our enthusiasm to the potential buyers. They then responded that they also experienced this as pleasant. It was also fun to do and contributes to 'saying goodbye' to the house where you have a bond with. The house was sold quickly, among other things thanks to the realistic photos, whereby Benno first reviewed the bids with us. Thanks to the viewings, we already had a 'feeling' about the bidders and were quick to decide. Both parties received the deed promptly. Overall, our experience is great and it is absolutely not missed that the entire process is managed 'remotely'. Nice to keep control yourself while help is always available. I can recommend everyone to offer their house through Zelfverkopen! Update 24-9-2024: after multiple requests, the status on Funda has still not been updated to sold after more than 5 months! We are now getting a 'quick money and through' feeling. Therefore, 1 star off.

As the selling party, this is an ideal way of working. You can easily guide interested parties in the property yourself, which makes it possible to make flexible appointments, such as viewings on weekends or evenings when it suits them. This not only offers convenience for potential buyers but also ensures that you can better support them throughout the process. Because you have direct contact via their phone number and email address, you can communicate quickly and personally, making the process smoother. In short, arranging everything yourself gives you control over the sales process and offers flexibility for both you and the buyer. An efficient and personal approach that can increase sales opportunities.

As a seller, I searched for a real estate agent who doesn't charge an outrageous fee. Selling a house in this day and age isn’t rocket science in my opinion, while a regular real estate agent charges a premium. You do need some expertise from a real estate agent. Self-selling offers this, Benno is friendly and competent. Clear explanation, you can determine the asking price yourself and deviate from the real estate agent's advice. You write the advertisement text yourself and you conduct the viewings yourself. For the advertisement text you can use ChatGPT: tell it to be an enthusiastic writing style and which unique selling points should come forward. Doing the viewings yourself is also fun (you get some tips), you give everyone who wants to come a chance instead of the expensive real estate agent who imposes a viewing stop after X requests and excludes people at the front because the house will still sell... All in all, a good experience, of course not completely perfect but that's what you pay for (e.g., forgetting to activate Funda statistics, callback from the real estate agent is quick but sometimes takes a few hours, manual questionnaires, bidding not via Move, written explanation can sometimes be clearer, sales sign without a pole, etc.).

As a buyer of a home with experience with this agency, self-selling worked for the seller. Until the bidding process everything went as expected. After that you notice it turns around and everything suddenly runs very rough, until you've been to the notary everything is too much effort and every question is too much. It's simply about raking in commissions and not about customer friendliness; to some extent that will certainly be part of the concept but employee Benno is frankly unnecessarily rude in the hope that you’ll stop sending further emails. Quite an emotionally incontinent person who can turn into a toddler who doesn’t get his way. Maybe other employees are better raised, which could naturally be the case, but given the other reviews I fear the worst! (review edited due to incorrect employee name; it concerns Zelfverkopen.nl)

Really unprofessional. Called multiple times, but no answer. You are also not called back. You are also not approached by the salesperson. It leans towards gloomy behavior and untrustworthy.

Perfect advice, beautiful photos, pleasant collaboration and still low costs. Ideal! Warmly recommended. You do need to enjoy doing the viewings yourself. But we liked that very much!

We recently sold our home through Zelfverkopen.nl and I can highly recommend it! Although we have worked with traditional real estate agents in our city before, we were never completely satisfied. Often we felt left out and lacked insight into the bids and interest for our house. With Zelfverkopen.nl, however, you are in control while the Zelfverkopen.nl agent provides expert support during the bidding process. It is very reassuring that every offer lands directly in your mailbox. By doing the viewings yourself, you also get a better feel for potential buyers, which significantly facilitates choosing between bids. In short, if you don't mind conducting the viewings yourself, Zelfverkopen.nl is definitely recommended! Moreover, your property is accurately measured using GPS technology and beautiful photos are taken. You have the freedom to come up with the text for Funda yourself, while the agents of Zelfverkopen.nl review it with you again, so that you get an attractive advertisement on Funda! Just do it!

Our house sold via zelfverkopen.nl. Very satisfied with the service, advice and support during the sale. It was nice to be able to play a role yourself in the sale of our house where we lived with great pleasure. The process went very smoothly.

As a seller, I can wholeheartedly recommend Benno, Charlotte and team. The communication was always smooth and professional. The advice for the selling price and sales strategy was based on the land registry and extensive experience. Thank you very much!

Apparently, I once requested information in 2016 or 2017 and ultimately didn't do business. Last week we suddenly received an email that the photos of our house were ready. So we just received photos of other people’s homes, after which I called and emailed them stating that we did not appreciate this. Now we are being called again while we are not doing business with them. Not professional to simply send photos of a property in Geuzenveld…

Poor communication, you have to chase everything. Limited knowledge of the market. Benno is absolutely not a likeable person. Not recommended to do business with.

DO NOT COOPERATE! - Very impolite behavior - Scoring quickly and cheaply - Only thinking about their own profit - Poor to no communication - Not fulfilling promises All in all, this service is below par. I want to warn everyone through this channel not to enter into an agreement with Zelfverkopen.nl

On the website of his other company, this man calls himself 'honest, skilled and reliable', which apparently is meant to conceal that this man is dishonest and unreliable. Stay away from this company, you will be used and played for the broker's own gain. Has multiple companies, integrity is nowhere to be found. You are barely or reluctantly addressed, as a person you are not so important to this office. Disregards NVM rules, just like rules of integrity and common decency.

It's been a year already, but last year I sold my apartment through Zelfverkopen.nl. It went smoothly and when I had questions, Zelfverkopen was always accessible.

Selling your house yourself, I was quite skeptical, but how glad am I that I did it through Zelfverkopen. The process went smoothly and the support was particularly good. Within 4 days I had sold my property.
