All brokers in Losser

Real estate agency van Werkhoven sold our house within a week. Petra is enthusiastic, expert and to-the-point. The communication about the bidding process could have been clearer. We consider directness and speed to be the strong points of this real estate agency. We are satisfied with how the entire process went!

DISRESPECTFUL PETRA! Last Tuesday I called out of interest for a property. I was immediately treated disrespectfully. It was eight o'clock in the morning and that lady thought it too early. The lady had just finished a night shift and asked me on which continent I would live. Sorry madam, next time you are better off not answering, than answering. Do continue like this, you will soon meet your match. Your unpleasant attitude will be discussed more often in the reviews. Do something about it! But my goodness, it won't be due to the lady.

This is the most rude and least customer-friendly brokerage experience we have ever had, and we have been looking for a house for 2 years already. During the viewing, Petra sat back and we were allowed to view the house ourselves. She was very distant and only answered questions that we asked. The day all bids would be in was the day contact would be made with us. That of course did not happen, which is why I had to call myself. Petra was then incredibly rude, and said “I will contact you”. When I asked if she might know when this would be, the answer was “I don’t know, it could be a week because I still have to discuss with the sellers”. LESS THAN 24 HOURS LATER (!!!) I received a call from Petra saying that our bid had not been accepted. When I asked if we could negotiate, the answer was laughingly “no, the house has already been sold”. A bit strange, since Petra indicated the day before that she had not yet discussed with the sellers. All in all, a brokerage with a smell about it. An absolute no-go! Especially Petra van Werkhoven, appalling treatment of customers, especially in this market! Do not enter into an agreement with this gloomy group.

I rarely write such a quick negative review, but this experience with Petra was so disappointing that I have no choice. Petra behaved in a very unprofessional manner and seemed completely uninterested in our needs. Her unfriendly attitude made the process extremely frustrating and uncomfortable. It is unbelievable that someone in this industry can show so little respect and interest for clients. I strongly advise against Petra to anyone who is serious about buying or selling a house. This is absolutely not recommended!

Communication regarding the house purchase was strange; if you followed up by phone, the responses were short, with little explanation, as if they didn't take my interest in the house seriously. The moment my offer was rejected, the house had already been sold. I was prepared to bid higher or enter into negotiations. But that wasn’t on the table; it was day and it went. I would not recommend this real estate agent, and certainly won’t be selling my house through them in the future. A dishonest game was played here.

As the purchasing party, I experienced the contact as pleasant. Transparent, clear communication and Petra was always quickly available! I always knew exactly where I stood and am now almost formally the owner of a beautiful home. :-)

So, I came back from a cold fair when I contacted them this morning to inquire about an apartment. Frankly ridiculous how Petra spoke to me. Going into details seems unnecessary to me, because the other reviews on Google speak volumes. I hope that the investors' club that uses this office scratches its head a few times and then takes the hare's path, because if this is the party that represents you, I certainly can’t take them seriously.

Very bad experience with this real estate agent, they are not aware of the defects in the homes they sell. Thanks to Petra from Werkhoven, I have lost more than 12,000 euros. It was only when a legal procedure was started that someone could suddenly be sent to look at it on their terms, no consultation possible for other times, you just have to take another day off then, only during working hours, impossible for working people. But contacting them yourself and acknowledging mistakes is out of the question. No good words about this real estate agent! Scandalous practices, especially in these times! Sellers will be happy indeed but please pay very close attention if you buy from this real estate agent! Nice talk where not a single bit is true! I don't wish anyone the misery they brought me! And Mrs. van Werkhoven, you have my number, it would become you to still contact me as I repeatedly requested, but instead you prefer to extort money from people who have to work hard for it and are unable to conduct honest business.

Very friendly realtor! Spontaneous and very approachable. Thanks to Petra, as a first-time buyer in this crazy housing market, I was still able to buy a home. Also a nice team in the office who always greet you very kindly.

Very pleasant and professional contact with Petra from Werkhoven during the purchase of our home! Petra acts quickly, friendly, and accurately. In addition, it's very nice that she is so easily accessible and willing to help and think along! We will definitely recommend Werkhoven real estate!

Constant complaining. It takes a long time to arrange anything. And trying, after a long time, to still send an invoice that is unjustified. They don't have things in order. They don't have the administration in order. Very disappointing. And I hear this from many more people who rent with vwerkhoven.

We experienced Petra as a charming, kind and enthusiastic woman with expertise. I rate her communication skills (because they couldn't be higher) as very good. Clarity is very pleasant when selling your house. She doesn't promise things she can't deliver. The valuation was realistic, however she was open to our 'response' and that is what makes Van Werkhoven stand out in East Netherlands. The 'straightforward' approach isn't for every Twente resident. To end with a wink: if I now tell you that it will be sunny in Twente for 365 days next year, you won’t believe in miracles either ;-) What shouldn't be forgotten in this text is that the contact with the back office (Laura) has no critical notes whatsoever. Sublime! Ladies, thank you

We have just purchased a property in Enschede through Van Werkhoven Makelaars. Petra really thought along with us from the very beginning and informed us well about the area, the situation on the housing market etc. Petra and her colleague Laura were always easily accessible by phone and email. When we wanted to move forward the delivery date, cooperation was immediately provided and an final inspection was scheduled on (very) short notice. In short: friendly, personal yet professional and flexible! I wholeheartedly recommend everyone to make use of the services of Van Werkhoven Makelaars!

As far as we're concerned, excellent! Petra was the selling broker of the house that we bought this summer. In the purchasing process, we particularly appreciated the clarity regarding submitting the offer and handling the purchase. Everything felt confidential, happened concretely, and mainly very quickly. We were somewhat apprehensive beforehand due to the negative reviews. Our experience has absolutely proven the opposite. Therefore, definitely a recommendation for us!

Being able to buy a home in Hengelo through Van Werkhoven Makelaars. The viewings were professionally organized and they were well informed about all matters involved in and around the property. Communication regarding the part of making an offer on the property was clear, and they handled finding the best bid fairly. In our opinion, she really looked at what was best for the seller. Overall, we had very pleasant conversations with them. The conversations felt confidential and friendly, exactly what you look for in a real estate agent. Therefore, Van Werkhoven is truly recommended.

The viewing of the property with Petra van Werkhoven was very professional but also informal, which we personally found very pleasant. She clearly stated how and when the bid had to be in (on paper), to give everyone a fair chance. In short; clear, professional, cozy and pleasant real estate agency!

Correct realtor

Fine Nothing to Note

Terrible company. Sells a property with enormous hidden defects and then washes its hands of it. During the viewing, I was also blatantly lied to regarding things like the underfloor heating, which supposedly worked. After the purchase, an installer discovered that it wasn't even connected. There are outlets in the house without any wiring behind them. All the electrical work is incorrectly wired. The extractor fan was supposed to be connected; I got this in black and white from the real estate agent. Subsequently, I had to hire someone for it and bear the costs myself. Paperwork for the property, such as the questionnaire and list of assets, were not available. Weeks spent chasing after them to finally receive them a week before the transfer. Apparently, I hadn't purchased the floors along with the kitchen appliances. I’ve never experienced such an unorganized mess when buying a house. I would think very carefully before doing business with them!

Stay away from them

Recently received an assignment, quickly switched during the process and provided transparency. They think along well and also provide clear information and advice. Overall definitely recommended to do business with. No-nonsense mentality!

Always professional and helpful. Nice service!

Always a bangin' end result with the gentlemen of JB Vastgoed Advies. They never disappoint me and can definitely recommend them!

I know Bert as a pleasant person with expertise!

They just don't respond...

Studio used as temporary living space, fully furnished including refrigerator and use of a washing machine and all the necessities you need to get through the day.

Good service...

Due to work in Twente, I rented a studio for a long time on the Wierdensestraat in Almelo. It turned out very well. The layout of the studio is perfect, everything you need is there. If something happens, it's quickly resolved by TwentsVast. Emails and phone calls are responded to very quickly and correctly. Your privacy is respected; if something needs to happen in your studio, permission is always requested. The 'check out' process was also fine. Should I ever have to be in Twente for work again for a longer period of time, I will definitely rent here again.

Very satisfied with the treatment we received from Anne. She was very attentive, clear and helpful in solving any maintenance problems in the apartment and answered our questions about the service. The apartment that we rented was very well located and the furniture was in very good condition.

Excellent and efficient service from this office. Everything is clear and they are always ready for you, regardless of your problems. The locations and furnishings of the rental properties are in good condition. It is undoubtedly an option to consider in the Enschede area!

I lived in one of the studios for a total of 6 months due to an internship in the Almelo area and I was very satisfied! The room is large enough for one person, is modern, has a great location and is fully furnished. It's perfect if you need a place to stay for a few months or if you need time to find something for the long term. Moreover, it's directly above a gym, which was a big plus for me. Moreover, I met great people who eventually became good friends. Should there be any small problems, the communication was no problem at all. Carolijn was always very friendly and helped me quickly. I would definitely recommend this place! ☺️ If someone who didn't know anyone came to Almelo, I can say that Twents Vast B.V. made my start very easy.

Uitstekende service, goede communicatie en snelle reactie op e-mails. Kortom, Anne heeft ons de beste ervaring bezorgd tijdens het huren via hen. Het appartement dat we gebruikten was uitstekend, alles was schoon en functioneerde perfect. Ze zorgen er echt voor dat alles goed onderhouden wordt. Complimenten aan hen!

Als je een plek zoekt om een ​​paar maanden te verblijven, dan raad ik deze aan. Ik vond het erg handig en comfortabel. Het is een kleine studio, maar als je alleen bent, is dat precies wat je nodig hebt. Tijdens mijn verblijf heb ik nergens problemen mee gehad.

Geen klachten. Ik verbleef er 6 maanden vanwege een stage in de buurt van Almelo. Het bedrijf regelt alles zeer professioneel, de kamers zijn goed ingericht, de locatie is erg strategisch, de faciliteiten zijn goed, enzovoort. De huur is redelijk betaalbaar, maar gezien de grootte van de kamer vind ik het een behoorlijke prijs voor Nederland. Ook de communicatie en transparantie zijn een groot pluspunt. Al met al een prettige samenwerking!

Friendly staff, but it was very dirty when we moved in and when we told them that something was broken, their excuse was that it's an old house. The toilet was clogged for a few weeks before they fixed it and we had a very old washing machine that also had some issues. It took a long time before we got help and the machine could be replaced.

I rented a studio in Almelo via Twents Vast B.V. and I can definitely recommend the office. Affordable, professional service and Carlijn was always reachable and helpful.

Organized virtual viewings when I moved from abroad. Very responsive and helpful.

Very nice landlord. Always clear and quick with communication and the property was perfect for my purpose.

I have nothing but good to say about this office! I rented an apartment with two bedrooms in Enschede for 26 months while working in Almelo and never had any problems. One time there was a problem with the front door key and that was quickly and efficiently resolved after I contacted them. For your information: inspections are also carried out with notice, but that also went smoothly. During the time I lived at the address, I had several housemates and it was also no problem to adjust the lease agreement upon request. All in all, I was satisfied with the service provided.

We rented a studio for about a year from TwentsVast in Almelo. It was a nice, compact and fully furnished place. We got all the necessary help from Carlijn and Anne during our stay. The check-in and check-out process went smoothly. If you clean the studio thoroughly upon departure, no costs will be charged. In our case, we got the full deposit back. The only disappointment about the studio was that there was no bell for the building/apartment. Because of this, we missed many parcel deliveries. Apart from this small issue, we had a good experience and I can wholeheartedly recommend them.
