After a pleasant introduction, the entire process from sales went remarkably smoothly and quickly. I was well informed by the real estate agent about all viewings, and there was good advice to reach a beautiful conclusion. It's nice to have a real estate agent who also knows the region well.

We are very satisfied with Fieke as our buyer's agent. She researched and arranged everything for us to the last detail. Things we ourselves had not thought of.

Very correctly handled. Well informed of the latest news even on Sunday. Can definitely recommend Fieke.

We are incredibly satisfied with the fast and professional sales process and the support we received as sellers! We could not have made this go so successfully without a real estate agent.

When selling our house, we experienced Smedema Real Estate as a very expert and friendly real estate agency with fast, skilled and pleasant communication; we can wholeheartedly recommend this realtor.

Bad experience with this broker, up to 3 X hidden defects and showing a negligent attitude in doing so. They are difficult to reach and provide fabricated information.

Very good experience with Smedema. They know what they're talking about, take the time for the customer and can tell you everything you want to know about the property during a viewing. Good and reliable company!

TOP helped us with buying and selling our new house. Very friendly staff and a big thank you to Astrid and Herbert, we found our palace.

A fine real estate agent who communicates extremely friendly, well, quickly and clearly. During the viewings, we were warmly welcomed, and good attention was paid to our wishes and possibilities.

Friendly people. Good work

Fast and pleasant communication. They think in terms of possibilities. Knowledge of the subject matter.

We had a very negative experience with Smedema and we do not recommend them. At the beginning of the year, we bought a new-build house with one of their candidate brokers. This candidate broker gave us incorrect information several times. She told us that the house was ready for a heat pump (which was not the case). She made a mistake in the contract which almost cost us an extra 200 euro (luckily not afterwards). Finally, she misinformed us about a number of articles in the contract, resulting in us ultimately having unexpected costs of 1000 euro. Do not trust this broker.

A large selection of apartments, houses, various prices, a well-visible location

At the beginning of the year, I had a property search set up with several real estate agents. Smedema reacted proactively to this and was able to help us find the right property well. Even after everything was officially arranged, I still received a phone call asking if there were any questions. Top! Thanks for the good service and expertise. Regards F.R.

Client-focused, very friendly and competent brokers! They know the region and the housing market like no other! Very careful, in-depth appraisers! I would always choose Smedema Makelaars and Taxateurs again!

Dear Sir, Madam, with this letter I would like to share my findings with You regarding the sale of the property mentioned below. Last Thursday, November 30th, we had the first viewing. At that time, there were no concrete buyers, or at least no bids. On Friday, December 1st, 1 day later, we called to request a second viewing and to state that we would like to make an offer afterwards. This took place last Monday (December 4th) at 9:00 am (earlier Smedema was unavailable). Also at that moment, there were no concrete negotiations regarding a possible sale. A bid had been made which was not followed up on. At that point, we placed a bid, subject to the condition of our own sale (March 1, 2018) and financing. This offer would be passed on to the seller. On the same day, 2 hours later, 'developments' occurred: the seller has received several bids and will choose from them with whom he will continue negotiations !!?? We find this a very strange turn of events in the context of what preceded it. We seriously wonder if another agenda is being pursued than is presented. Nowhere is there mention of a possibility of free bidding or an auction. Normally, one negotiates with the person who makes the first bid that is acceptable enough. When these parties cannot reach an agreement, the next in line comes along. For the sale of the property below, I have received no notification or seen any indication that this property was going to be sold in a different way. We therefore regret that customers are treated in this manner.

Mr. Smedema helped us in a very pleasant way. We received good advice and all appointments were perfectly kept. Should we need an appraiser or real estate agent again in the future, we will definitely think of Smedema. Professional!
