The real estate agent handled all communication with the selling agent. They negotiated the price so well that we ultimately paid the asking price.

Both real estate agents from Hoekstra and Van Eck Leiden accompanied me in a long but successful house hunt in Leiden in a very pleasant way. They remained friendly, professional and patient while viewing properties. With a critical eye they keep you close to the reality of the house and your own wishes: really very valuable! Super thanks therefore Mark and Aleida!

We were recommended Hoekstra en Van Eck Leiden by some friends, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Their expertise helped us secure our dream house. Mark is extremely knowledgeable, and we felt safe and supported throughout the entire process.

Ze zijn geweldig!!! Mark en zijn team uit Leiden hebben ons de hele weg geholpen. Ik zou ze aan iedereen aanbevelen.

We had conversations with several real estate agents to be able to place offers side by side but Mark came well prepared with a lot of knowledge to the first meeting and has more than fulfilled his promises. Easy to contact, pleasant in dealing and both feet firmly on the ground. We were excellently guided with the sale of our mother's apartment.

The entire team of Hoekstra and van Eck are very professional. React quickly and act swiftly. I am very satisfied!

I have experienced the contact with Hoekstra and Van Eck as a potential buyer as good and pleasant. The appointments for the two viewings were made easily and quickly. The present real estate agent Mark van den Broek came across to me as friendly, knowledgeable but above all reliable. He took the time and gave a lot of information.

Second time in 3 years that we have engaged Hoekstra and van Eck. Again with satisfaction. Expertise combined with fine human contact.

Mark guided me through the entire process nicely and smoothly. Really happy with his expertise.

Nice real estate agent, very involved and gave us good information... would list a house here for sale again

Aleida was very approachable and honest. She guided me through the entire process and everything went perfectly! Also, a heartfelt thank you to her other colleagues and to Joyce. They respond quickly and I would never have found such a nice house without their help!

The real estate office takes on too many clients, so they cannot accompany them to all viewings. This is bad for the negotiating position.

Of course many people will say they are really good, but Marc and Evelien have done really good work. Also towards the interested buyers, that's how we understood it from them and from us. We had a houseboat and that is really other buyers off Thea as one says, and they already have a lot of experience in brick houses and scored high there, but now even more in houseboats. In short, specialists.

Very good personal contact with Mark v.d. Broek, quick response and answering of questions, good ideas and solutions, relieved us of worries!

Expert and accessible contact, good price, thought along from the beginning. Communication was pleasant, could have been a bit faster/earlier on some occasions, but overall a good experience with a nice final price.

Very good contact, even in the evening or on weekends we had contact. Mark was present at every viewing, made time for us. Realistic assessment of a good bid. Expert advice about the condition of the house. Pleasant to deal with.

Mark van Hoekstra and Van Eck helped us with the purchase of two homes and the sale of one. In all cases, he was extremely professional, reliable, and involved throughout the entire process. During this sale, he took everything out of our hands: from arranging a visit for the photographer and drafting the advertisement to organizing the viewings, where we hardly had to do anything ourselves. He conducted the negotiations very skillfully and we are e...

He advised us on which home best suited us, provided clear insight into the condition and value of the houses, and handled all communication with the sellers.

Mark van den Broek is a very fine, reliable real estate agent. Gives good advice. Is flexible to join viewings despite a full schedule. Fast and clear communication.

Mark and the team are truly experts in the market. They help you where needed and are always ready for you. They guide you through the entire process which is very pleasant. Highly recommended for everyone who doesn't have a real estate agent yet.

Fine, efficient and expert real estate agent, good communication and pleasant contact. Took a lot of paperwork off my hands.

I had a fantastic experience with Hoekstra and Van Eck Real Estate in Leiden. They helped me find a house, which in the Netherlands is no easy task. Aleida was very professional, friendly and always reachable. Thanks to her help the whole process went much smoother. I am extremely grateful to her and would definitely recommend their services!

Top realtor, we engaged them for the purchase of our new house and the sale of our old house. In both areas, it was great to work with them, they always communicated quickly and well. They think along with you well and listen to your wishes and needs. We are very grateful to our realtor (Aleida) in Leiden for the purchase!

I received good help and advice to sell the house as well as possible and a worry-free sales process.

I recently moved from Arnhem and didn't know the new neighborhood at all. Luckily, I had Mark as my buyer's agent. From the beginning, he was honest, direct, and clear about what I should and shouldn’t buy. That gave me a lot of confidence. If something seemed too good to be true, he immediately pointed it out and explained why. He was thorough in his research and his advice was always well-supported. What I especially appreciated is that I felt supported until the very end – no empty promises, but real guidance. In short: a reliable and expert agent who truly has your back.

We are very satisfied with Hoekstra and Van Eck Leiden; we were perfectly guided through the sale of the house by this real estate agent.

We had an amazing experience with Mark and can highly recommend his services! Mark is very knowledgeable about the real estate market in Leiden and guided us throughout the entire process. He never rushed us and always put our interests and needs first. As non-Dutch speakers, it was extremely helpful to be able to communicate fully in English and also to have his support with language barriers.

Contact with the estate agent and the agency went well and easily. Thorough knowledge of the local housing market.

Our broker was always responsive, helpful, professional, available to reply to any of our questions and clear in the explanations. He acted as in-between with the seller's broker and helped us arrange all we needed. All the paperwork was prepared promptly and the purchase contract was checked carefully before we signed it.

Mark was an excellent real estate agent and we could not recommend him more. Extremely knowledgeable and always putting our best interest first.

The communication flowed smoothly and pleasantly, there was a lot of personal attention and I received expert help.

Mark and Evelien guided me excellently through the sale of a flat in Leiden. Due to personal circumstances, I was unable to actively participate. They took everything out of my hands and it went perfectly well. Correct, clear, friendly and a good way of communicating.

A pleasant and engaged realtor with extensive knowledge. Fine people in the back office. Highly recommended.

Evelien was my real estate agent. Her enthusiasm and commitment contributed to the sale of my house, and for a very good price. Thank you Evelien.

We hadden geen betere makelaar kunnen vinden voor de aankoop van ons eerste huis. Mark heeft ons door dit ingewikkelde en langdurige proces heen geloodst. Hij begreep onze behoeften vanaf het begin en adviseerde ons bij elke stap met grote professionaliteit. Naast dat hij een erg aardige en vriendelijke makelaar is, waardeerden we zijn eerlijkheid en geduld bij elke bezichtiging en elk bod dat we deden enorm. Hij gaf ons altijd de ruimte om na te denken en de beste beslissing voor ons te nemen. Ondanks dat het proces erg stressvol was en de biedingsstrijd behoorlijk hectisch, hielp hij ons de situatie te beoordelen en overhaaste beslissingen te voorkomen. Hij was altijd bereikbaar, beantwoordde onze berichten en coördineerde met Joyce om bezichtigingen in te plannen. Soms werkte hij lange dagen als deadlines naderden. Het heeft 9 lange maanden geduurd, maar we zijn erg blij met het huis. Heel erg bedankt, Mark en Joyce!

Really great service. We are looking for a house, Mark helps us and advises us as much as possible, always available. Really very helpful.

Great help from Mark throughout the process. Definitely recommended!

Hoekstra en van Eck helped us with both our house sale and our new house purchase and it had been an excellent experience in both occasions. The prices for their services were better than all other makelaars we contacted and on top of that Mark (who was following us) already gave us an excellent impression from the moment we first met him. He has always been available, helpful and kind and it has been amazing to have his support during this process. Can only fully recommend Ho…

Very friendly broker who thinks along well and is very knowledgeable about the housing market in the region. Good guidance and advice. I would choose Hoekstra and van Eck again for a possible next time.

A flawless process. Mark loves his profession and sets high standards for himself: he investigated more than I expected; during a viewing, he sees more than I do as a building expert and is very critical. Because he also appraises himself, he could, in my opinion, accurately assess the value of properties, allowing us to bid with confidence. If I have to mention a downside: Mark has his own strong opinions about what is suitable and unsuitable and about quality - …

For the second time asked for help with selling the house. We were very well helped with clear explanation and good communication. It was as we expected and is definitely recommended.

Very nice realtor; expert, fast, honest, customer-oriented and pleasant to deal with. I am very satisfied and wholeheartedly recommend Mark.

Cheerfulness and optimism are characteristic of Mark. He also has a good network of (purchase) brokers in the region. During the viewings, he took all the time and gave us good feedback. Definitely recommendable.

Excellent real estate agent, good feeling, excellent communication, approachable. Mark guided us well with expert advice and our house was sold quickly.

Contact with Evelien went smoothly. She was usually called back quickly. She didn't have any problems working or coming by on her days off in case of important matters. Well done!

I had a very good experience with Hoekstra and Van Eck Leiden when buying my first house. Mark has a sharp, pragmatic view of properties, which meant that after each viewing, I always got a good picture of the positive and negative aspects. Also, Mark was always easy to reach and consistently clear in his advice and approach. And you can tell from his enthusiasm that he enjoys his work. I am very happy with the work that Mark and Joyce did for me. H...

Evelien was fantastic. She has good knowledge of the market and is very customer-focused. Nothing was too much for her. Communication was fast and clear.

The real estate agent was friendly towards us and the viewings went well and professionally. When we had questions, the real estate agent always responded quickly. Respect for his patience after the sale took longer than expected.

Very pleasant contact with the real estate agent. Communication went very smoothly. I was well informed of all developments.

The real estate agent was very service-oriented, explained exactly how the sales process works and they responded well and quickly to questions. They were also helpful with key handover for the necessary visits.

A fine real estate agent who takes everything out of your hands. I would recommend him to everyone. If I still had questions about the sale, he was always ready for me.

Good contact and the apartment was sold quickly for a good price. The completion of the process was also carried out neatly.

I chose the realtor 'on a feeling', and haven't regretted it. I also didn’t know that realtors had a sense of humor, but this lady was really pleasant to work with.

Excellent contact throughout the entire process, and a very pleasant experience with the guidance. In an exciting period, our real estate agent was our conscience and our sparring partner

Excellent service and support!!! Cooperative and empathetic, which makes the sales process easy.

What a super pleasant experience with our buyer's broker! In a very exciting time, we received honest and realistic answers. Always easily accessible and willing to answer all of our questions. We also found the collaboration with De Hypotheekshop to be enjoyable. Worries and work were truly taken out of our hands!

Mark is a skilled professional who loves his work and you can tell. From our first conversation, he brought calm to the stressful period that house hunting inevitably is. But especially: he helps you personally, is always available for you and puts his priorities and experience into it 100%. I am amazed at what I have been able to buy for my money, and how quickly.

Professional guidance, good market knowledge and knows how to respond well to the wishes of us as sellers

From the very first contact, I have only had positive experiences. The sale of my deceased parents' apartment was handled by Evelien. She is truly a very good real estate agent. She is clear, well-prepared and is enormously involved. She is someone who keeps her promises, knows the market well and above all is very friendly! I have experienced Hoekstra and Van Eck as a very professional company. They work with good photographers and copywriters. The advertisement, photos...

Mark van den Broek from Koestra and van Eck expertly, critically, and with humor and good advice helped us in the sale of our two apartments and the purchase of the new house. We are very satisfied.

I met the realtor in person, but the rest was all digital and via WhatsApp and phone, since I live in the US. Luckily, everything went fine despite the time difference.

Mark van den Broek from Hoekstra and Van Eck advised us excellently on the sale of our two apartments and the purchase of a new house. Careful, accurate, experienced, friendly and tidy.

We were helped in a very professional, but also personal way. Because they listen well to your wishes, we received good and appropriate tips and advice. The employees who work there are skilled and know what to look out for. Very nice when you make such a big purchase as your (first) house. In short, recommended! Involved real estate agents who do their job more than well. Thank you very much Mark, without you it would never have succeeded!

Personal and friendly realtor, good guidance, keeps you well informed. Good presentation of your house, friendly guidance of the potential buyers. They relieve your worries and ensure a professional but personal settlement.

First shift

Mark, onze aankoopmakelaar, stond altijd voor ons klaar. Hij gaf ons zijn eerlijke mening en advies. Hij was altijd erg vriendelijk en stond altijd klaar voor al onze vragen. Ik kan ze zeker aanbevelen. Nogmaals bedankt aan het hele team van Hoekstra en Van Eck - Leiden!

I was very well assisted by brokers Mark and Evelien from Hoekstra and van Eck. My house sold within a month to my satisfaction. A great performance in these current turbulent times. Much is taken out of your hands and regular feedback is given after viewings or offers. If it ever becomes necessary again, which I hope not, I will definitely have Mark and/or Evelien on the job.

Ik ontmoette hem toen ik zelf een huis bezocht. Hij was de verkoopmakelaar van dat huis. Hoewel hij zijn cliënt vertegenwoordigde die het huis voor een zo hoog mogelijk bedrag wilde verkopen, gaf hij me niet alleen een professionele uitleg, maar ook zijn oprechte mening en advies. Na twee jaar, toen ik besloot mijn huizenjacht opnieuw te beginnen - maar dit keer via een aankoopmakelaar - en op zoek te gaan naar een betrouwbare aankoopmakelaar, herinnerde ik me hem meteen. Er is geen twijfel over mogelijk dat hij een zeer goede makelaar is, eerlijk, enthousiast, transparant, geduldig, altijd bereid om mijn schoenen aan te trekken, en bovendien zijn zijn kennis en professionaliteit betrouwbaar. Het lijkt erop dat andere makelaars in Leiden hetzelfde voor hem voelen. Bovendien zijn zijn collega's behulpzaam en professioneel. Hij nam vrij lang de tijd om me uit te leggen hoe het hele proces werkt, hoe de markt zich ontwikkelt en wat mijn verwachtingen waren. En elke keer dat ik hem een ​​bericht stuurde, gaf hij me duidelijk advies, maar liet hij me ook de ruimte om zelf na te denken. Hij was tot laat in de avond beschikbaar als het dringend was. Ik kan hem en zijn collega's zeker aanbevelen aan mijn vrienden. Het kopen van een huis is een hele grote gebeurtenis in mijn leven en ik ben erg blij dat ik met hem heb mogen samenwerken.

Very happy with Evelien and Mark! Friendly, accessible, and willing to think along about everything. And happy with the quick sale of my house!

Top realtor! Pleasant service, clear communication, good guidance and short lines. Very happy with the sale of our beautiful house.

Well helped with the purchase of a home. Viewings could be arranged quickly and I received honest advice. Questions were also always answered promptly. Recommended!

From the first conversation to the sale of our house, we were excellently and professionally assisted by Carola and Evelien from Hoekstra and van Eck

Ik ben zo dankbaar voor de hulp van de lieve Evelien van der Zalm bij de verkoop van ons huis. Alles verliep heel soepel, zij en haar collega's waren altijd supervriendelijk en stonden altijd klaar om al onze vragen te beantwoorden en duidelijke en diepgaande informatie te geven. Ons huis was snel verkocht aan een heel lief gezin. Ik heb alleen maar goede dingen te zeggen over Evelien en de rest van het Hoekstra en van Eck-team en kan hen van harte aanbevelen!

Due to circumstances, we were assigned a different real estate agent (Evelien), and thanks to quick action, the sales process went well. In an overheated market, this agent doesn't follow the hype and wasn't led astray. The contact was very good; we could email, call, and WhatsApp at any time, and received responses almost immediately. Our house was sold at a good value!

We have just moved into our very first house that Mark helped us with the purchase. I can absolutely recommend Mark as a real estate agent. He is very informative, always reachable, communicates effectively and gives excellent advice. Thanks to him we had success right away with the first offer we made. It is also not because he advised us to outbid; on the contrary, he often advised us to bid lower than we initially thought, despite that outbidding would certainly increase our chances and his commission. We are super satisfied with the entire process with Mark and also with the help from the office. A real recommendation.

Very friendly, helpful and skilled team. Have done business with them several times. Highly recommended. Also very involved; property offered for sale, during the sales process my father passed away. Hoekstra and van Eck (no family) team Leiden took all care out of our hands during this difficult time. Very compassionate, cooperative and above all proactive. This gave us a lot of confidence and peace of mind. The sales process was also excellent, bids and sales advice (price, conditions) handled very professionally by the team (Mark, Evelien and Roos). Classy, A recommendation to take this real estate agent on. No nonsense, simply good, driven, and very customer-focused Mark, Evelien, Roos...keep up the good work and thank you for the excellent guidance, but also personal attention Eric

We are particularly pleased with the service, friendliness and professionalism that we have experienced at Hoekstra & van Eck in Leiden. All contacts were personal and proceeded extremely pleasantly, appointments were kept meticulously, and the attitude was pleasingly proactive. As far as we're concerned, an absolute recommendation.

Very skilled realtor, takes all worries out of your hands.
