Lighthouse Property Services B.V.

Ik weet het niet, er was niets gesloten.

Wat een fijne samenwerking met Lighthouse Property. Alison en Renée zijn adequate en denken heel goed met je mee. Zeer goeie ervaring met de verhuur, ze hebben een groot netwerk waardoor je huis altijd snel verhuurd is.

Uitstekende service, kennis en expertise. Alison en Renee zijn echte experts in hun vakgebied en hebben onze aankoop supervlot laten verlopen. Een echte aanrader!

An incredibly good real estate agent with very friendly staff. They are always easy to reach and helpful. Within a very short time, thanks to the real estate agent, we were able to purchase a house. Highly recommended for both selling and buying!

As a tenant, I would look for another property and definitely not do business with them. The property is rented to you through them; they only act as an intermediary where they draw up the rental agreement, you pay the first rent to them, and a (photo) report was made during key handover without the presence of the new tenant regarding the condition of the property. Then you hear nothing more until you want to terminate the lease. Apparently, it is expected that you conduct correspondence about this with them and you will be confronted with all sorts of procedures that do not describe anywhere how you should leave the property. Nothing about this is stated in the rental agreement. Then their friendliness suddenly disappears completely, although they themselves are not mentioned anywhere in the rental agreement as stakeholders. They send emails full of threats without first hearing both sides and if a less friendly reaction follows, they are then surprised. Empty statements such as that the termination of the lease was not done on time because the landlord decides not to pick up the registered letter and that an extra month's rent should therefore be paid. Luckily I hadn’t paid the last month's rent yet, because I quickly noticed that this would become a discussion where you, as a tenant, always get the short end of the stick, because you can whistle for the return of the security deposit. I terminated the lease registered by post and also registered by email so they had no leg to stand on. I would therefore advise Lighthouse Property to quickly return to school with regard to all current case law on rental agreements and advise them to delete the clauses and conditions invented by themselves, as these are not included anywhere in the rental agreement and have long been condemned by judges as unreasonable disadvantageous terms.

Extremely friendly and helpful. The communication flowed smoothly. Definitely recommended.

Together with Alison and the team, we collaborated on renting and subletting a property in Haarlem. Both times their service was excellent: pleasant and professional!

Renée was very helpful during the search process, looked after my interest when finding the right property, and was flexible enough to attend any viewings. We found the right property quite fast and were able to close the deal under the right conditions thanks to her experience and knowledge of the area. The timely follow-up and friendliness of the Lighthouse Property Services team is always appreciated!

When you meet with Renée, you immediately understand how expert she is in her field. The assesment she made about the offer based on the comparision/calculation for similar houses and the houses sold recently in the same area, was very accurate and she showed us the right way in our situation. She explained everything on the process and answered all of our endless questions. Thanks.

We used Lighthouse to find a rental property when we first moved to the Netherlands and were very impressed with their quick response and professionalism. They also helped us buy a house a year later and gave us great advice along the way to find the perfect home. We were so satisfied with Lighthouse that we called them again when it was time to sell our house... it not only sold quickly, but also for much higher than the asking price. We would wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking to rent, buy or sell a house - exceptional service and excellent in dealing with expats. Thank you Lighthouse for everything you have done for us!

Extremely good experience with Vivian from Lighthouse. Professional, direct, fast and also very pleasant communication. Vivian stands by what she does and was very motivated and enthusiastic for the given assignment. The financial/administrative handling by Lighthouse was also quick and correct. An agency that functions well and delivers good work!!

We hebben een geweldige ervaring gehad met Lighthouse. We hadden zeer goede contacten met Renée, Alison en Mieneke en zij hebben ons geholpen een fantastisch huis in Haarlem te vinden. We zouden een samenwerking met hen zeker aanbevelen, we hadden het niet zonder hun hulp gekund.

Top experience with this rental agency. They work very professionally, keep all appointments, are easily accessible and very skilled!

Direct, businesslike and very professional. Recommended for managing existing and/or purchasing real estate.

Geweldige service, zeer tevreden over Lighthouse. Ze waren zelfs in het weekend bereikbaar!

I had a very good experience with Renee 😊 when finding a house for us in Haarlem. She explained everything to us very clearly and honestly. Within one day we were able to view two apartments and secure one definitively. The response time via email and phone was also very fast at this rental agency. She helped us find the right energy suppliers. We wholeheartedly recommend Lighthouse Property Services.

Very satisfied with the service provided by Lighthouse. Allison and Renee are very efficient and pleasant to deal with. I am also very pleased with the residents that Lighthouse has introduced. Finally, the tips regarding the interior design and drafting of the rental agreement; Allison and Renee helped me fantastically with this.

For years we have been renting out our apartment in Haarlem through Lighthouse Property. We are very satisfied. The apartment has never been vacant, partly because Allison and Renee have a huge network between companies and expats. And they have always given us good advice on how to make the apartment as attractive as possible for the market. Attentive, expert and successful: that is what the services of Lighthouse Property are like. Thank you!

Top service!

As an expat who moved to another country, Alison was a huge asset and incredibly helpful (herself also an expat). She knows exactly how to find the perfect home. I am truly convinced that she wants to match you with the perfect apartment and will go the extra mile for that. While I was traveling back home, she was still searching for homes that met our wishes, visited the property, made videos, and took the time for multiple phone calls. Finally, she helped us excellently during the move-out with the quote, the rental agreement, the check-in, etcetera. I can absolutely recommend her! Thanks, Alison!

Since 2014, I have rented out a property several times through Lighthouse Property Services. The contact with both Renée and Alison is very pleasant. I live abroad myself and therefore cannot meet potential tenants personally, but I trust them to find a tenant without worry. In my opinion, they have good people skills that allow them to assess whether the potential tenants are people I would like to have in my property. I can definitely recommend their service.

We hebben een geweldige ervaring met Renee & Alison. Ze reageren snel en zijn professioneel. Ze hebben een groot internationaal netwerk, waardoor we ons huis razendsnel konden verhuren. Het hele proces verliep soepel en we zullen ze zonder twijfel weer inschakelen! Een echte aanrader!

Lighthouse heeft ons geholpen om ons huis in Haarlem efficiënt en snel te verhuren en hield ons voortdurend op de hoogte. De samenwerking verliep prettig en ik heb de diensten van Lighthouse aanbevolen bij vrienden en collega's.

We werken al sinds 2006 samen met Alison en Renee van Lighthouse. Hun service is voorbeeldig en als verhuurder hebben we nooit een "downtime" gehad voor huurders. Ze vinden altijd de beste huurders die goed gescreend zijn en zorgen voor een soepele in- en uitcheck... Ik kan ze van harte aanbevelen aan alle verhuurders en huurders die op zoek zijn naar een woning!

We were very pleased with the service of Lighthouse Property. We live abroad and when our tenants cancelled their rent, Lighthouse reacted very quickly and put the property back on the market for rent. It was reassuring to know that it was in their hands. They understand how much we still value our property and are less concerned with finding new tenants as quickly as possible, and more with finding the right tenants for us. The transition from old to new tenant went very smoothly. We will definitely use them again in the future.

Very moderate experience with this company. You pay 1 month's rent to them for all the work they do. You get very little back, I can tell you. The owner speaks broken Dutch and via email it’s complete gibberish. At one point I even received data from other people who had offered their property through them, very sloppy! Furthermore, you want a rental company to inform you well about the tenant and listen to all your wishes. They do listen, but then they don't honor the agreements made. I would not recommend this rental company to anyone! Look for a better option. (the name in the title is to remain anonymous)

Super happy with the apartment that Alison found for us. The whole process went smoothly and she even offered to do the viewings via Skype, because we couldn't miss our work. I would definitely recommend Lighthouse Property Services to any expat coming to Haarlem.
