TWM effectively helped me to purchase a lovely apartment. They were so helpful and responsive and throughout the journey, which was so confusing at the beginning, they were beside me and smoothly guided me through all steps. Without their help it wasn't possible. I'm thankful and happy to work together with TWM

Patience professional competent thinking along with towards the possibilities in the long term and listening to the environment messages market

Excellent experience! Good price indication, accurate, beautiful presentation and shows a lot of involvement. Very nice. Highly recommended!

Expert and smooth guidance and handling. Took a lot of work off our hands as heirs during the sale. Absolutely reliable!

I am not the type of person who leaves bad reviews, and I even feel bad doing this now, but I hope to spare someone else from my situation. I will go into more detail below, but in short: poor advice from TWM has cost me at least €50,000, and the situation is still ongoing. I hired TWM to help me buy a house in 2021. If I had written a review then, it would have been 5 stars. The agent I worked with was extremely helpful and communicative. As an expat, I felt very reassured. Ultimately, I started looking in the Zaanstad area. TWM let me know that this wasn't their primary working area, but that it wouldn’t be a problem to help me find something there. Houses in Zaanstad of a certain age are known to require foundation repairs, and it was made very clear from the start that I could NOT afford foundation repairs, and therefore had to avoid buying a house where this was needed. Ultimately, I found a property nearby that I really liked... but the house was slightly tilted, which again indicated foundation problems. I raised this with the agent, who said there was no special reason for concern, but that a technical survey would certainly reveal this. The technical inspection was carried out by an inspector recommended by the agency. In the report, he stated that there didn't seem to be any particular reason for concern within the foundation; that the house was obviously tilted, but he noted nothing abnormal. He also indicated that a specific foundation report could tell us more, but that he did not deem it necessary. I contacted the agent again and asked to be sure about the foundation problem. Again, I was told there was no reason for concern. I asked the agent about a suitable offer on the house, and he approved the offer I wanted to make and said it was a good offer on the house. Everything went well, I bought the house and moved in. Afterwards, my situation unexpectedly changed and by the end of 2023 it became clear that I would be moving out of the Netherlands. I knew the timeframe was quite short, so I just hoped to break even when selling the house. I contacted TWM again to handle the sale, because I had such a positive experience with them previously. Then it became clear that the advice they gave me when buying the house was poor. As soon as we started selling the house, every potential buyer mentioned fundamental concerns. What was 'no problem' became the reason why nobody wanted to buy the house... and since I have only lived in the house for 2 years (November 2021 - November 2023), I can hardly believe that the foundation has deteriorated from 'no reason for concern, perfectly normal' to 'IMMEDIATE RENOVATION REQUIRED' in such a short time. As of the moment I am writing this, the house is for sale for €50,000 less than what I paid, and I still cannot get an offer for that amount. This is the minimum amount I can accept and pay off the mortgage; lower, and I will still be making mortgage payments. Because TWM seemed so serious and sincere otherwise (this is why I still give them 2 stars instead of 1), I would like to believe this was an honest mistake. I spoke with several other real estate agencies, and those who did NOT live in Zaanstad seemed to agree with TWM. On paper, they felt the house should be able to sell without problems for that price. Only a local Zaanstad agent told me otherwise. So I suspect this is a case where they don't know the local area, and nothing malicious. That said, I made the purchase and offer based on their recommendation, and hired them to ensure I paid a fair price, as I have no real estate knowledge. And I can only say that it was a failure on their part, even if the mistake was honest. This has derailed my life, and the only loss TWM suffers is the time it takes to sell the property. That is probably still covered by their discount on the generous offer I initially made on the house, based on their recommendation.

Fast appraisal, thorough investigation

We are extremely satisfied with the speed and good communication with which all assignments were executed.

Valuation for purchase went great!

We are very satisfied with TWM real estate agency. Everything went as wished. The high reviews really do check out! We didn't have any prior experiences with realtors and found this company via the internet. We can wholeheartedly recommend Edith and her team! The process was very smooth, and we received professional advice. Especially, the process also proceeded without too much stress. This is not a given in the current housing market.

Very nice realtor to work with! We have already had 2 appraisals done by Tim and that was done very well and expertly. The report was ready quickly and very complete.

We are incredibly pleased with the service of Frank and his team. Buying a house in Amsterdam is a challenge, and collaborating with Frank really helped us! A big thank you also to Salvador and Richard.

We had a fantastic experience with our realtor Frank. His service was exceptional, the communication was always clear and fast, and his friendliness made the whole process much smoother. We can wholeheartedly recommend him!

I definitely recommend working with Scholten Makelaars to buy a house in the Netherlands, I decided at the end of 2024 to buy a house in this crazy market and Frank was super helpful throughout the entire process, with insights into the…

We sold our apartment through Scholten Makelaars and had an excellent experience. Richard took the work out of our hands, communicated efficiently, and managed to close a very good deal. Everything, from managing expectations…

Scholten Makelaars offers a very professional and helpful service, very clear and understandable information regarding the status and progress of the process. Through the online environment, there are no surprises and everything is transparent. I am extremely satisfied with Scholten Makelaars office.

Terrible realtor. Contact with Salvador is selective from his side. I understand the lovely reviews because Scholtens run for you if you want to buy a house, but as soon as it goes wrong due to sheer incompetence at this unprofessional…

Great professional service from Frank van der Velt, totally recommended. Communicative and good advice, quicker than expected.

We had and have very good contact, the process isn't completely finished yet but that's okay. Very happy with this realtor. We chose this address based on reviews and it’s working out really well!

They were the agency I bought through years ago and now I sold through again. Salvador and Sacha were always ready with excellent service. Thank you!

I am incredibly grateful for the excellent support Jasper provided me during my recent purchase of an apartment in Amsterdam. His guidance was truly invaluable. From beginning to end, he was exceptionally professional, responded quickly, and was always willing to thoroughly answer all my questions, making the entire process smooth and much less discouraging. His dedication and clear communication were highly appreciated. I would also like to express my sincere thanks to Richard and Frank for their valuable help during the apartment search. Their contributions were equally useful. It was a pleasure to work with such a dedicated and expert team. Thank you for making this important journey a positive experience. Serra Yilmaz

I engaged Scholten Makelaars to sell my apartment in Amsterdam and I can only assess them very positively! Richard Gaelen was extremely professional and dedicated throughout the entire process. He clearly explained every step and gave me a lot of confidence in the preparations for the sale. Especially because I was abroad during the viewing/sale. I had full confidence in Richard, who arranged everything remotely for me with extreme efficiency and transparency. I am incredibly satisfied. Thank you very much for all your help! I can wholeheartedly recommend this excellent company due to their outstanding customer service!

Richard helped me with the purchase of my first house! Throughout the entire process, I always felt like I could rely on him, whenever I needed him. He made this intimidating process so much easier for me. Thank you Richard!

I am very satisfied with the performance of Richard van Gaelen as a sales and purchase broker. I found the house I was looking for, and my previous house sold very quickly for the amount I had in mind. Highly recommended!

I have collaborated with Jasper and Frank from Scholten Makelaars. I received nice tips and advice even during the initial consultation. The entire process proceeded smoothly from beginning to end. The collaboration was incredibly pleasant: professional, with good communication and clear explanations at all times. It also didn't take long before my apartment in Amsterdam was sold. I can wholeheartedly recommend Scholten Makelaars!

Very satisfied with the services provided. Agent Frank was always direct, to the point and always available, even outside of normal working hours. I would definitely recommend!

The service was great. Frank helped us with the sale of the apartment and he was a very competent real estate agent who guided the entire process. A real recommendation.

Very satisfied! My house sold very quickly for the amount I hoped for. Furthermore, pleasant to deal with.

Contact with Lara went excellently. She was professional, accurate and always easily accessible. Moreover, she took that extra step, exactly what you as a buyer appreciate and look for in a real estate agent.

Contact with the real estate agent went smoothly and clearly. I was well informed throughout the entire process, and my questions were always answered quickly and carefully. The expectations I had regarding guidance and transparency were fully met. There was room for consultation, and I felt taken seriously. This gave confidence and ensured that everything proceeded smoothly and professionally.

We were very well assisted by Lara! Throughout the entire process, we received professional support and got the help we needed to sell our house in the best possible way.

I found a home thanks to La Maison Makelaars and was helped by Julia. I am enormously satisfied because they provide a very personal service. I am new to the market and didn't yet know what to look out for. Julia was very patient and went along to every house I wanted to view and gave me advice based on my situation. She also sent apartments that I had missed. After finding the apartment, she also gave advice on everything related to it, such as notaries,…

We have had good contact with Lara regarding the sale of our house. Her colleagues were also very helpful during Lara's vacation. We are happy with the guidance from La Maison Real Estate and certainly recommend them!

Very happy with the guidance from start to finish. Expert, involved and always easily accessible. My apartment was sold quickly for a good price. A nice team to work with - I would definitely recommend them!

Extremely fast and well assisted. Correctly, even when the house wasn't. Honest reliable help.

What a great realtor! Rarely have I met someone who works so involved, quickly and professionally. Always accessible, thinks along and arranges everything to the last detail. Thanks to Lydia, everything went smoothly and stress-free - truly recommended!

Fantastic assistance. At the 2nd house we visited, it was a hit and within one day of ours! We started creating a realistic plan, focused searching and maintained smooth communication. In the overheated market of Amsterdam, we are incredibly happy to have worked with La Maison Makelaars.

Julia from Le Maison always gave us honest advice, but the most important thing is that she has an incredible amount of empathy. She is very compassionate, attentive and accessible throughout the entire process and at the same time can negotiate well and strive for the best possible outcome.

Lara from La Maison guided us fantastically! From the very first exploratory conversation, we were completely taken care of. She helped with collecting all the correct documents and data, determining the right asking price, photography, drafting the advertisement, and of course also guiding the viewings. All of this adapted to our wishes, requirements and especially working hours/schedule. Finally, evaluating the bids and support during the notarial and formal transfer.

Contact with the real estate agent was excellent. There is a skilled team that replaces Susan when she is unavailable, and they do so with expertise. Particularly in the area of obtaining necessary permits, the team guided me well.

Julia Rameckers gave me advice that proved to be very effective after implementation. Furthermore, I found it pleasant to work with her on the sale of my house!

My little sister and I decided at the end of March to buy a house together, and by the end of April, we had found a house that perfectly matched our wishes and our offer was accepted. On May 17th, we were already able to move into the house and it feels completely like home. La Maison Real Estate and specifically Lara were available for us at all hours of the day and accompanied us during all viewings. In addition, she also gave honest advice about the houses we had viewed. We are really mega happy with our house and …

Lara from La Maison has helped us excellently. She is clear in her communication and takes plenty of time for both buyer and seller. We would absolutely recommend her

Very nice contact and everything went professionally and quickly! I am happy with the whole process, Lara is a star!

We were positively surprised by the help from La Maison - especially our agent, Lydia. We could ask her a lot of questions and she has been very patient with our search. We did lose some bids, but Lydia made us motivated again and never felt rushed into something that was not a match. We ended up buying a very beautiful home that matches more of our criteria. I'm sure we'll be super happy in this home. From the start of research, to the keys we spent about 3 months. While m...

We had a very pleasant experience with Floris when we needed an appraisal for our mortgage. He responded very quickly, gave good advice and tried to help us where possible. A real recommendation!

Floris helped us very well and quickly! He kept us well informed about the process, acted quickly and more than fulfilled all appointments! We are very satisfied! Thank you Floris!

We had a great experience working with Sander to find our home in Santpoort-Noord. As newcomers to the Netherlands, we didn’t know much about the home-buying process, but Sander guided us clearly through every step. He was always patient, responsive, and honest—especially when advising us on potential red flags or less-than-ideal choices. His deep knowledge of the Haarlem area was a real asset. We truly felt supported throughout the process. Highly recommended!

Always available, strong advice, proactive. Communication excellent. Provided insight into the market, transparent. Good advocate.

Sander did an excellent job, very happy with my new house

Floris helped us wonderfully with the purchase of our home!

Sander from VK Makelaars excellently helped and guided us with the purchase of our new home. He keeps the lines open, steps in where needed, and gives excellent advice. No nonsense, no false promises, and always honest and realistic throughout the entire process. Absolutely recommended.

Sander was very helpful during the whole process, always available and gave good advice. I'm very happy with my new house

Mandy has been an exceptional real estate agent throughout our home-buying journey. From the very beginning, she demonstrated her dedication by always being available to address our questions and alleviate any doubts we had. Her prompt and clear responses reflected not only her professionalism but also her genuine commitment to ensuring a smooth experience for us. One of the things me and Marianna truly appreciated about Mandy was her proactive and reactive approach. No matter …

Poor communication and a lack of solution-oriented approach. Our appointment was allegedly cancelled, but I never received an email about this at the usual email address where all contact took place, including the appointment confirmation. It was also claimed that an SMS had been sent, but it cannot be found anywhere. When I expressed my disappointment to Omid and tried to find out where things went wrong, I was told they didn't want to investigate this and that I was simply unlucky. No effort to find a solution. Very disappointing experience, absolutely not recommended!

We can wholeheartedly recommend Omid and his team at VK! Omid was our Buyer's Agent and thanks to all his efforts, we are now the proud owners of our dream home. As immigrants, our knowledge and experience with Dutch legislation and customs is not as thorough as that of others. He was present at every step, from viewing houses to having them appraised, making offers, signing at the notary, and key handover, and more. He always made sure to explain every detail, however small or insignificant, so we never felt like we were in the dark or poorly informed. He advised us not only as our agent but also as a friend and a pillar of support. There were moments when he even went above and beyond expectations and we greatly appreciate all his efforts. He truly derives satisfaction from the contentment of his clients. We would gladly work with him again in the future! We also collaborated with Floris for a Valuer project. He knows the local market of Amsterdam very well, is honest, direct and thorough in his valuations and would certainly recommend him for both valuers and agents. He introduced us to Omid, so thank you very much for that!

We are very happy with choosing VK Makelaars. Our agent Mandy was very proactive, helpful, patient and always there for us. We have been struggling for several months with other agencies and were not happy with their approach to our needs. After getting Mandy onboard we found a perfect place within a month from our first talk over phone. We highly recommend VK Makelaar and especially Mandy!

I was helped by Mandy from VK Makelaars for the purchase of the property. She helped me throughout the process, from helping me organise viewings, to helping me set up all the administration needed to purchase a property. As a non Dutch speaker and someone new to the Netherlands this was extremely helpful and I would thoroughly recommend the service provided by Mandy and the team at VK Makelaars

Incredibly well helped by Floris! He gives clear and good advice, has a lot of knowledge and can quickly switch gears. Very satisfied with the service!

Sander was an excellent professional and guided me seamlessly through the entire purchasing process. I am very happy with the house that I bought with his help!

Floris helped us tremendously! As a beginner with no understanding of the housing market, he ensured that we could see the forest for the trees. I really appreciated having someone by our side during such a process who you can truly trust. He was very accessible and always gave an honest and realistic answer. That meant we always knew what to expect. In addition, he is also just a very empathetic guy who genuinely wants the best for you. For us, he definitely made all the difference in this exciting process!

Aron was great to work with. He knows the market incredibly well and helped me enormously throughout the entire process, from beginning to end, making my life a lot easier. Moreover, he loves his job, and you can see that in the personal connection he builds with all of his clients. He was just as happy as I was when we found the apartment I wanted, and his positivity and optimism throughout the whole process are the greatest added value you can have! A real recommendation!

Aaron is very pleasant to work with and we really relied on his advice and negotiations. What I especially appreciate is his expertise, not only in the field of real estate, but also in construction quality, which was enormously useful when viewing homes. He was initially recommended to us by a colleague, and we are hugely grateful to him for that :)

I worked with Aron! He was enormously helpful and honest during the house search. He is very reliable and has great expertise. As an expat, he made the whole process very easy for me, explained all the steps, and was extra careful! I can wholeheartedly recommend him!

We had a fantastic experience with Aron in finding our dream house in Amsterdam. We had quite specific requirements regarding our budget, which can be difficult with the options available here. However, Aron helped us find our dream house by navigating this tricky market with his expertise. He also has experience with home renovation, so it was helpful to attend viewings and hear his opinion on average costs should we want to renovate or have ideas about how the space could be transformed. He is very motivated and remained fully engaged with us throughout the 7-month process that we found our house. We cannot recommend Aron enough - he is one of the best!

Thanks to Aron, we have our first dream house! He helped us tremendously, actively thought along with us and was always honest in his advice. Thanks to his guidance, you won't make hasty choices, but will buy something that is really worth it!

We had a fantastic experience with our buyer's agent, Aron. During our six-month search, he was constantly up to date on everything: punctual, proactive and very organized. His good relationships with other agents made the process smoother, and he always arranged viewings quickly and followed up on details. And most importantly: his smart negotiation strategy helped us secure a beautiful home. Aron's professionalism and dedication gave us confidence at every step. Thank you so much, Aron, for your unconditional support and guidance – we are enormously grateful to you!

We couldn't be happier that we chose to work with Aron and De Plantage Makelaars. From our very first meeting, it was clear that he was more passionate, energetic, and involved than all other 'more experienced' real estate agents from whom we received offers. We were treated closely and personally throughout the entire process (instead of just being “another property in a large portfolio”). We received additional services that no other broker had offered (arranging our belongings for the photoshoot with the help of an interior designer, storing some of our personal belongings, Aron even offered to let us work from his office while he showed the apartment - since Horeca was closed-, etc.). Aron was always accessible and responsive, proactive in adjusting the offer, adding extra options based on statistics, was super flexible about viewing times (useful for potential buyers) and did an excellent job assessing the market value of our property, keeping us informed of our expectations, advising us to reject offers and remaining patient and ultimately negotiating the final terms and guiding us through the process and paperwork. Next time we will not hesitate to work with Aron and positively recommend them to anyone who asks for advice.

I can highly recommend Aron and De Plantage Makelaars. As a first time buyer he took me through the process step by step and made me feel informed and secure when making decisions.

I worked with Aron! He was extremely helpful and honest in the house search. He is very reliable and his expertise is great. As an expat he made the whole process very easy for me and also explained all the steps and took extra care! Couldn’t recommend him more!!

We had a great experience. Aron is very professional, always available and precise. He is very transparent in all the aspects and listen to the needs of his clients. It won’t have been the same without him. Super recommended

Aron is a great realtor, honest and reliable. We were very happy that we chose him. Quick communication, good advice and always available for everything we needed. A real recommendation.

If you are looking for a house in Amsterdam, we really cannot recommend Aron anymore. Working with him is absolutely worth the effort. He was very available and always tried to be present at visits (something that not all agents do). He gave thorough and honest advice and always stood in our corner. In addition, he has an excellent network and introduced us to a very helpful mortgage advisor. We ultimately got a fantastic apartment, and without him we really couldn't have done it.

We are very satisfied with the entire sales process. Beautiful sales presentation. Aron provided quick and good guidance for viewings and gave us good feedback on developments. Responded directly and was also always easy and quickly reachable. In short, very satisfied.

Review Contact went very well. Good communication and always responded very quickly when I had a question. Always available outside of office hours to answer my questions. In short, a very good agent who thinks along with you and has good personal contact

We have achieved a successful result, well above expectations. The groundwork was impressive and distinctive: A lot of time was invested in styling and presentation. We had little time for this ourselves. It started with good and honest advice about opportunities and possibilities. Communication has been very pleasant. We are enthusiastic and can wholeheartedly recommend the plantage makelaars!
