Well, what a brilliant name choice: 'Happy Living.' You almost think you’re stepping into a dream house as soon as you sign the purchase agreement. Unfortunately, that dream turns out to be more of a nightmare. I had already heard some rumors about this company, but now one of my best friends is literally standing with water up to his ankles and the realtor leaves him out in the cold without mercy, I can’t help but share this ‘warning.’ You would think that a company with such a cheerful name would give you a worry-free life, but apparently the only 'Happy' here is the moment you realize you’ve bought a dilapidated building. So, for those considering it: be warned! You might as well participate in 'Renovation Rescue' and hire Martijn Krabbé and John Williams. Because believe me, you’re going to need them.

A few weeks ago, we sold our apartment through Happy Living and bought a corner house through Happy Living. We are super happy and satisfied with their service. Really happy! 😇 …

Hilarious asking prices, no NVM member, and increasingly less supply.

Very bad experience. I contacted them with interest for a house. They said they would get back to me, which never happened, and when I called to follow up, I was treated like a scammer. I was treated very badly. Definitely not recommended.

Very positive experiences with Happy Living real estate agents. Sold 4 houses within a top timeframe and for a top price. Purchased 1 property. Where Ruud, as the purchasing agent, was very critical so that I didn't make a bad purchase. Ruud particularly sensed the feeling at the different houses well. Not once regretted going with Happy Living. Ruud and his team are excellent and make people HAPPY☀️☀️

Happy Living real estate agents is truly a recommendation! Ruud was both our sales and purchase broker. We experienced this as very positive. Our 'old' house was sold very quickly and for a top price, and during our search for our new home, he was very critical. For example, he saved us from a major mistake, a house with many defects that had not immediately been noticed by ourselves (and the seller concerned had not told us anything about it). We now have the keys to our new home and I can still contact Happy Living Real Estate Agents with all my questions.

We had a very pleasant experience with Ruud AND Evelien! Truly a top real estate agency with very down-to-earth, friendly people.

Ruud + team and Evelien of course 😀. Have already sold 3 houses for us in recent years, always super fast and always for a good price. Top team, a solid 10 for these people…

Unsocial realtor. Staff causes damage, which was given verbally. Subsequently, there is no further response. A good neighborhood course would do these people well.

Very friendly, experienced, calm and honest realtor.

I have experienced Ruud Verdonk as an arrogant man. During the viewing, he remained downstairs and was too busy with his phone. If you have complaints/hidden defects, Ruud will quickly say “too busy”. Great regret that I bought a house through this real estate agent. Ruud portrays himself as a nice man but that changes quickly when he is no longer facing you. No doubt there are people who experience this as pleasant but this is certainly not my experience. As far as I know, Happy Living is not an accredited real estate agency, which seems important in this world. Always look for a real estate agent affiliated with the NVM, there are plenty in Enschede. The response below from the “real estate agent” confirms everything and shows how unprofessional he operates.

Great shop.

We bought a holiday home in Germany in 2022. Wil Brand from Buitenleven real estate advised us very well, while knowing that we were buying a holiday home from someone else. Then we immediately decided that if we ever sell it, we will have it done by Wil Brand. She did so to our full satisfaction. She is pleasantly calm, knows how to communicate and does her absolute best. Even during the handover, she manages to surprise you as a client. How? That remains our secret, Wil!

We are very pleased with Wil Brand. She guided us excellently through the sale of our house. I wholeheartedly recommend her. Knowledgeable, friendly.

This woman is not a realtor but a scammer. So be careful.

Experience with both buying and selling homes. Very pleasant, friendly and professional.

I strongly advise against going into business with this real estate agent. If you want to achieve the highest possible price for your property in the current market, then you definitely should not use this agent. The aforementioned agent sells a house while multiple bidders are willing to pay a higher amount. Furthermore, failing to honor verbal agreements is more of a rule than an exception with this agent. Overall experienced as very negative and unprofessional.
