Lokaal Makelaardij

What lovely people Alex and Natasja are to be helped by. Friendly and incredibly professional. Short lines of communication, skilled and very reliable. Very happy that we chose them. Not forgetting, very pleased with the result!

Alex excellently guided us in the purchase of our new home. We are extremely satisfied with the collaboration. Communication was smooth, appointments were kept and his knowledge of the local market gave us great confidence. In this overheated housing market, the search can be quite stressful, but thanks to Alex’s personal and committed approach, it never felt that way. He actively thought along, gave honest advice and was always easily accessible. In fact: we almost regretted that our search came to an end. We look back on the entire process with a good feeling. Local Real Estate Agency is recommended for everyone looking for a buyer's agent.

I sold my apartment through Lokaal Makelaardij and am very satisfied with the guidance from Alex and Natasja. The communication was pleasant and clear, and they were always easily accessible. They paid a lot of attention to the presentation of my home. The photos, text, and styling were taken care of down to the last detail. I am convinced that this led to extra viewings. Their knowledge of the local market gave me confidence in the chosen approach, and ultimately...

My friend and I had a great experience with Alex and Natasja from Lokaal Makelaardij when we were looking for a new rental property in Haarlem. They were super friendly, communicative, and always patient to answer our questions. A real recommendation!

Exactly what you should expect from a real estate agent. Fast, clear and honest, but above all personally involved. Thank you for the good services.

Natasja left an indelible impression from beginning to end. She advised, through making some adjustments, to make the property perfectly ready for sale. The personal approach and the love she felt for the house certainly contributed, in my opinion, to a quick sale.

Alex ensured that finding a rental property was done within a few weeks, which is top service! Very happy with the accessibility and the property.

Good realtor! Clear and fast communication! Definitely recommended!

With Alex from Local Real Estate, we have had an excellent collaboration for years. Alex & team know the market, have good relationships & contacts and do their work thoroughly in the selection process.

Very personal and engaged with local knowledge. I don't know a realtor who puts themselves into it as much as Lokaal Makelaars does. Proactive and neat towards both sellers and buyers. Would definitely recommend them.

Alex is a kind and helpful guy, and he keeps his appointments. Quickly got our house sold for a very nice offer 👍!

Very happy with our collaboration with Natasja and Alex. They think along, are proactive, very pleasant in communication, and took a lot of work off our hands. And our apartment sold really well!! We have quite some experience now with real estate agents and buying and selling houses, and we found Lokaal Makelaardij to offer by far the best service.

Alex is a very friendly & reliable realtor. He goes that extra mile and keeps his appointments. Highly recommended!

The communication with the brokers was pleasant and the handling quick. This helped enormously and ensured a smooth course of the sale.

Alex guided us very well with the temporary rental of our house. Alex keeps his appointments, is accurate, friendly and thinks along with the process. We handed over the rental of our house with peace of mind. Thanks again!

Highly skilled and careful, from preparation to handover. Takes that extra step every time to ensure the entire process runs smoothly.

Fantastic help with our search for a rental house in Haarlem. Natasja is knowledgeable, collaborative, personal and very involved. We recommend her to everyone! We will certainly contact her again ourselves in the future if we ever move again.

Very good experience with Alex and Natasja. Very friendly and easy to deal with, and incredibly helpful and responsive throughout the entire process. The best real estate agents to go to, whether you are looking for a house or a tenant.

Alex was great to work with, really goes the extra mile for his clients and ensures everything is taken care of perfectly. Highly recommended!

A very pleasant and, above all, reliable realtor. Through Lokaal Makelaardij, I was able to acquire a lovely apartment where the contact has always been good as well!

Rented a very nice home, had enormously pleasant contact with Natasja from the beginning. Always quick responses and helpful. The property was also in extremely good condition.

They make things possible!! Luckily I found Lokaal Makelaardij. Professional, accessible, international and effective. A real recommendation!

TOP! Absolutely recommended! Professional real estate agency that I can definitely recommend. Alex offered us a beautiful apartment in Haarlem and we are very happy with the apartment. The communication was very friendly, always binding, and always a timely response to all questions. We can recommend Lokaal Makelaardij to everyone who values service and quality! A company that caters to the wishes of the customer! Thank you.

Great service and an even better person!! We just rented our apartment through Lokaal Makelaardij and we are so happy with the process. Muchas gracias Alex!! :)

I found this gem through social media and they responded quickly. The whole process went very smoothly and friendly!

Fantastic service, Natasja was very helpful from the start and allowed me to view online. The apartment is in excellent condition and Natasja responds quickly to all my questions. Local Real Estate offers a great service and I recommend their services to everyone in the Haarlem region.

Alex from Lokaal Makelaardij helped us quickly and well with the rental of our house. Partly due to his professional and efficient way of working, the house was rented out quickly for the right price.

Natasja is a pleasant, reliable real estate agent. Personal attention is highly valued!

My experience with Lokaal Makelaardij can be described as exceptionally good: the care, attention and time I received was heartwarming. Natasja managed to arrange a beautiful home in a very short period, where every step taken was guided and every question was explained. I wish everyone who needs a real estate agent a Natasja!

This is thee second property that Natasja and Alex have sold for us, and once again they have done an outstanding job. I would highly recommend them.

The care provided by Alex and His team was absolutely fantastic! He took care of all aspects related to the sale of our property very professionally and answered all our questions promptly and competently. Through great photos and the Home Staging offered by Him, our apartment was perfectly staged. Since we live abroad, he also attended all appointments for us. We could rely on him 100% and the sale took place within the shortest possible time to…

Alex and Natasja have been absolutely brilliant to deal with. From the very first meeting we had a good feeling that they would do an excellent job, and they did not disappoint. I would not hesitate to recommend their agency.

Contact with the real estate agent was extremely pleasant, which resulted in the entire sales process proceeding very smoothly and excellently.

We are very satisfied with the service. Everything went so smoothly. Communication was always easy and fast. <span class='text-oranje-500'>Natasja from Lokaal Makelaardij</span> sold our house very quickly. Price is very fair compared to the service that you get. Overall the experience was perfect.

This is the second time I've been helped by Natasja and Alex from Lokaal Makelaardij. They are both very professional and super pleasant to communicate with. I can definitely recommend them.

Natasja understood our wishes, provided us with extremely good support, knows the housing market in Haarlem, and guided us through the sales process in a very pleasant and professional manner.

Both Alex and Natasja from Lokaal Makelaardij are very accessible and respond directly to your message or question. And that is often different…. They never see problems but always think in solutions immediately. In addition, they know the market very well and gave excellent advice in my case. Everything was well prepared and the house was sold within one day for a beautiful price. They took administrative matters out of my hands and were personally present at …

Alex Veltman is not only an experienced and skilled real estate agent with a valuable network, he is also an extremely pleasant person. Hands-on and with honest advice. With the right mix of humor and expertise, he makes the entire process of buying or selling a super positive experience. When we had a viewing round on Valentine's Day, he surprised every viewer with a red rose. Alex does everything with genuine attention and that works!

Local Real Estate is a growing office with very good service. Natasja and Alex guide you very well and give a warm feeling. In addition, they are very quick to respond and try to help you as a client as much as possible. Both for buying and renting/leasing.

Super thanks for helping us rent out our house! Alex and Natasja took care of everything for us throughout the entire process: finding and selecting the right tenant, fulfilling the important obligations during the rental period, and handling the final handover. Next time we will definitely call them again!

Finding a house in the Netherlands can be quite a challenge, as demand currently far exceeds supply. I was lucky that, with the help of Natasja from Lokaal Makelaardij, I was able to find a beautiful apartment close to the beach. The viewing was quickly arranged and Natasja patiently guided me through the apartment and answered all my questions with a smile. I was also assisted with information about amenities in and around the city. The process of renting the apartment was handled quickly and efficiently and there was even a 'Welcome to your new home' card and gift waiting for me when I received the keys :)

Natasja was very fast and always ready to help. She has been very attentive, clear and concise and gave me a lot of peace of mind when I rented a property from her. I would recommend her and rent from her again.

Excellent help from Alex in renting out my house. Thanks to the speed, good communication and his attention to detail, a very pleasant experience!

Alex was great! He was professional and skilled. His communication was excellent and he was always ready to answer our questions. We are very happy with his service and highly recommend him!

Local Real Estate played a crucial role in finding our apartment in Haarlem. Their exceptional service exceeded our expectations. Their personal approach and attention to detail stood out as they guided us through the entire process, making it remarkably smooth. We are incredibly happy with our rented apartment and enormously grateful to Local Real Estate. We wholeheartedly recommend their services without hesitation to everyone looking for a smooth and successful search for a rental property.

Heartfelt thanks for the great service. Very professional, friendly and helpful! Highly recommended!

My partner and I had been looking for a home for quite some time (and with difficulty). When we found our new apartment, it was through Lokaal Makelaardij and they were great. Natasja helped us well. The entire process went smoothly and we were well informed about everything that happened in the apartment. They prepared an extensive check-in report and ensured that everything was in order. Definitely recommended. Nice people!

I recently moved to a house in Haarlem and I can only say that I felt very welcome and the house was very clean upon arrival. The man from the real estate agency, Alex, was very helpful throughout the entire process and answered all my questions very well. I am very happy with my new apartment. Thank you all so much. :)

We had a great experience with Alex and Natasja when they moved from Scotland to the Netherlands! I recommend you use their services 100%.

Really a good experience! A big thank you to the real estate agency, they helped me find a fantastic apartment in Haarlem where I don't have to worry about anything. Alex was very helpful. After I found the apartment, he went through all the details with me and helped me with companies that arranged the utilities. If you are looking for a reliable and professional real estate agency, you’ve come to the right place!

We have already collaborated with Alex and Natasja twice with great pleasure! Both times they were very professional and above all very human when they listened to our wishes and limitations. In such a competitive environment as house hunting, it is quite common that you are only judged on your salary, which means you are just a customer. However, Alex and Natasja did none of that and remained positive and friendly throughout both rental periods. They really listened to our wishes and met us halfway several times, for example during the check-out dates. We wholeheartedly recommend their real estate agency and their services, especially for expats like us! Micol and Paola

Local Real Estate provides a fantastic service. A big thank you to Alex for the help in finding a fantastic house in Haarlem. From the viewing to the key transfer, we were perfectly assisted. Alex even shared companies to help with arranging utilities and delivered the house in an immaculate condition, including a few delicious beers. Highly recommended.

I had a great experience with Lokaal Makelaardij, and especially with Alex. He did fantastic work during the transfer. Moreover, I lost my bag and house keys at a very critical time of day. He helped me enormously, even with some guidance, as I am new to the Netherlands. I am very happy that I dealt with Alex and I must admit again: 'He is the best.'

Great help during a difficult search for a rental property. We are very happy with our beautiful new apartment!

The best real estate agency in Haarlem! Alex was very professional and helped us find our dream house! Highly recommended!

Right in the middle of this market boom, Lokaal Makelaardij treated us as if they had all the time for us. They quickly arranged a house for us, exactly what suited us and we needed. Communication was excellent via Whatsapp and telephone. Contract and checklist received digitally with all necessary specifications to give us a reliable feeling. I would not start a search for a house anywhere else than with Alex and Natasja. The house was also very neatly delivered. We are extremely satisfied.

Absolutely recommended! Previously, we were tenants where Natasja handled the mediation. The communication was so pleasant that when we recently wanted to rent out our own home, we immediately contacted Natasja for the mediation. We have not regretted this moment! She helped us fantastically with our wishes and taking care of our worries. The communication throughout the entire process proceeded very smoothly and she responded quickly and accurately. Especially thanks to the perfect balance between professionalism and a personal connection, Natasja could not have helped us better. She thinks along with you and takes that extra step beyond the average real estate agent. I can therefore recommend Lokaal Makelaardij to everyone, both as a landlord and tenant.

I am enormously grateful to Alex and Natasja for their help in finding the perfect apartment in Haarlem! The apartment was delivered perfectly clean and sparkling as new. Alex showed me every corner and explained everything in detail. Overall, every step of the process was carried out extremely professionally and carefully by this team. My questions were answered quickly and completely every time. I really felt that someone with a lot of confidence and reliability supported me in this, from the viewing to signing the rental agreement and the move. I wholeheartedly recommend Lokaal Makelaardij to everyone looking for a home! P.S. And thank you very much for the delicious beers! What a lovely and heartwarming gesture :)

Natasja and Alex were very helpful and professional. Very expat-friendly which we were hugely pleased with. The process of signing documents went very quickly and professionally, with all the photos of the house in high quality and with good lighting, so you really see what is in the photo (we had other experiences where the photos of the property were very small and of low quality). A compliment to the team, truly recommended, because it's a place where the work is really done well.

A real recommendation with personal attention and an eye for detail. Ideal for tenant and owner.

We couldn't have wished for a more helpful, flexible and friendly service. Alex was extremely efficient and thorough and guided us through the entire process. And have we already mentioned how happy we are with our new house?

Reliable and service-oriented experience. Thanks Alex!

Alex from Lokaal Makelaardij fantastically helped and assisted us during the rental of our house. Renting out your house for the first time is very exciting but Alex made it so much easier for us. Really a big fat recommendation! We would do it again in a heartbeat. Thanks Alex!

The best agency I've worked with since moving to Amsterdam. Very helpful and professional!

Dear people, everything was communicated smoothly from the beginning. Professional, friendly and definitely worth 5 stars

The best experience ever. Arranging a rental agreement went very professionally, with clear communication and a friendly approach. To make a long story short: Local Real Estate Agency, you are amazing! Thank you so much, Natasja! Pawel

One word: real professionals.

Rented out my house through Lokaal Makelaardij; in a number of keywords: - expert, - decisive, - practical, - fast and effective. Both Natasja and Alex are easily accessible, involved and professional.

Recently had a good experience with Alex from Lokaal Makelaardij. He helped us very professionally in our search for a rental property in Haarlem from abroad. Quick and easy contact remotely, which was important to us. Would definitely recommend this letting agent.

Our experience with Lokaal Makelaardij was very smooth and pleasant. I would like to thank Natasja for her help with the mediation and for the gift she prepared for us during the key handover! She was friendly and professional and helped us arrange all the paperwork in less than a week. I am sure that I will recommend Lokaal Makelaardij to my friends when they move here! Once again - thank you very much for all your help!

What a great experience with this real estate agency! They really thought along with us and went that extra mile, so you didn't feel like one of many. Top service and especially very human!

I am very satisfied with the service of Local Real Estate Agency. I can recommend them to everyone. They really looked for the right match/person for my apartment. Everything was arranged quickly and professionally. They keep their appointments. Due to the short lines, you have quick contact and matters are addressed directly. The next time, I will definitely have my apartment rented through Local Real Estate Agency again!

5+ stars for Alex from Lokaal Makelaardij. Renting out your house for the first time is very exciting. With very professional AND personal attention, Alex took us through the process step by step and the choices that need to be made. This has resulted in a match with great tenants. Where Alex ALSO takes all the time for it. And that is very important to me as a landlord: That the new tenant feels immediately at home, and has a contact person for any questions. The fact that we also chose Lokaal Makelaardij to manage the property says enough: I can recommend them 100% if you are looking for a rental agent who works with a human touch.

We had a fantastic experience with Alex and Natasja! They are not only great people, but also super professional and, most importantly: they genuinely care about the people they work with. Alex and Natasja helped us find a house for our family and were incredibly kind and helpful during our move from the US to the Netherlands. I highly recommend everyone who is looking for a home to call or email Lokaal Makelaardij. You are in good hands with them. Alex, Natasja - thank you very much for all your help. The move would not have gone as smoothly as it ultimately did without your help and guidance. Thank you!

Great experience, professional and always responsive, from the moment we called Tham. Thanks for the new building

For the rental of my house, I was looking for a real estate agent and through word-of-mouth advertising, I ended up with Alex from Lokaal Makelaardij. My experience with him is very positive. He is a very friendly, professional and involved agent who understands his profession well. Within no time, my house was rented to everyone's satisfaction and all business aspects were handled neatly. I would recommend Lokaal Makelaardij to everyone!

I would give 10 stars if I could. Cannot recommend Natasja and Alex enough!!! I moved for work and most brokers didn't even want to listen or entertain. Alex and Natasja immediately understood my wishes and found a property for me within 2 days. The entire process, from viewing the property to moving, took about 48 hours and everything was explained and executed professionally in every detail. Which other broker can do that? (None, because I searched for homes for 2 months until I found Lokaal Makelaardij) And the best part is that they were already busy, especially during the summer period, but thanks to their kindness they took the time to help me find a home and accept my job offer. Without them, I would have missed an enormous job opportunity. Thank you Alex & Natasja, you are amazing, continue helping people as well as you can with the same kindheartedness. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Looking for a house can be done with a smile, kindness and the feeling that you are not alone – thanks to Natasja and Lokaal makelaardij. It is not easy to act as a tenant, but Natasja gave us the feeling that she really cared about us. She did much more than we expected, really put her best effort into finding the best place for us and, most importantly, showed us that she cared about us. We wholeheartedly recommend everyone who needs a real estate agent to call Natasja, so you feel like you have someone on your side. Thank you very much! Idan & Galit

We recently moved from Singapore to Amsterdam. Finding the right apartment proved to be a challenge, but we happened upon a beautiful place near the museums and had the pleasure of dealing with Natasja and the team at Lokaal Makelaardij. They did their utmost best to secure the apartment for us, even while we were stuck in another country, waiting for visa processing. When we finally moved in, there was a lovely gift from the team ready to ensure our arrival and settling-in went smoothly. I can highly recommend Lokaal Makelaardij to anyone looking for a place to live in the Netherlands.

Very nice people to have as a real estate agent. They respond super quickly and despite being ‘new to the market’, you notice they have a lot of experience. I can recommend them to everyone. Success Local Real Estate, you deserve it!

Our experience with Alex and Lokaal Makelaardij was enormously positive, not only because he is very good at this profession, but also because he went the extra mile (and not just once) to help us find the right house, and to generally explain how the Dutch real estate agency works, which is super important for expats without any experience in the Netherlands. From our first appointment with him, he listened to our wishes and set out to find the best house. Once he found it (which was not an easy process and I could write a book about it), he ensured that every detail in the contract and in the house itself was clear to us. We loved working with him and he absolutely made this extremely difficult job very easy and smooth for us.

Local Real Estate helped us find a fantastic apartment in Amsterdam. Special thanks go out to Natasja, who was incredibly personable and professional and always kept us informed of every phase of the process. The real estate agency really stood out due to the attention to detail and the great effort to make the experience as smooth as possible. A true recommendation!

Thanks Lokaal Makelaardij for our new house! The mediation was done by Natasja who is very accessible, friendly, professional and dedicated. Before we moved into our new house, we had some extra wishes for the house, no problem for Natasja to get started with this and managed to realize it with the owner! We have dealt with many real estate agents but we have never come across such a top realtor as Lokaal Makelaardij, who provides this exceptional service. 10/10

I've dealt with quite a few real estate agents in my life, both professionally and privately. Alex and his team are top-notch. This is real estate of the 21st century.
