We sold our house in a very pleasant collaboration with Koning Makelaars Woerden. Professional and with a personal “touch” and commitment. The lines of communication are good and short; our questions are answered quickly and they really listen to how the client would like things. So all in all; very happy with Koning Makelaars Woerden, we absolutely recommend them!

We got to know Jan Douwe Metzlar as the selling real estate agent of an apartment in the Octagon in Leiden. We were the buyers. Jan Douwe is a calm, expert and pleasant real estate agent. Always willing to explain, keeping appointments and responding quickly. He talks passionately about the techniques used in new construction and is at the same time also realistic. And he also gives valuable advice. In short, we wholeheartedly recommend Jan Douwe! Willem & Anita from Leiden

Very nice and accessible realtor. Used the services as a buyer's agent. We were well guided in this process and received a lot of valuable information. We received a lot of personal advice that was useful for buying a house. In summary, a knowledgeable realtor who works in an approachable way.

Information during the purchase of a new-build home was not always correct or incomplete.

Patient and helpful real estate agent. De Koning Makelaars in Woerden helped us with the purchase of a home. They assisted well in the preliminary phase, to ensure that if we made an offer, it was known beforehand that we could afford that amount. During the pandemic, they were patient and helpful in searching for a property. Furthermore, they were a good sparring partner in considering whether we really wanted to make an offer on a home. It was also very nice that we could ride along with our purchasing agent on the way to a property, precisely when we had car trouble. Moreover, we received a discount because we are selling our house through them and buying another one. Thanks to them, we made a well-considered decision in the purchase of our new home.

They are not helping me forward.

Good, quick, accurate and professional help from both the involved real estate agent and the team behind the scenes. A good balance between business-like and human approach: after all, when selling/buying a house it is a 'life event' and there is certainly attention for this! Good guidance during the entire (sale) process. We greatly appreciated the help and guidance of De Koning Makelaars Woerden and ultimately we are very satisfied with the end result!

Appointment made for a viewing. However, when we arrived at the relevant house, after an hour and a half of travel time, it turned out that it was no longer for sale.

Worked very well with Bert and Renske during the search for our new house. Good, fast communication and professional guidance.

Nice service

Trying to get hold of them for a few days regarding a rental property. Return call notes left....5 total pieces. Unfortunately still no return calls, no information received..... How much effort is it?

Moderate personal guidance

Fantastic help with the purchase. Jeroen is open, honest and knowledgeable. Gives clear advice and takes care of everything. Questions are answered and he was easy to reach. And he kept to the agreements regarding contact moments.

The contact went smoothly, I was helped well and relieved of worries, the property was sold quickly. Jeroen Kalmeijer is a skilled real estate agent.

Despite the great competition, thanks to Jeroen's knowledge and help, it was possible to buy the house. He is also always easy to reach when we need him.

Short lines, pleasant to deal with! Helpful, when I couldn't drive myself, he picked me up.

Our expectation was and is that the real estate agent fully commits to selling our house in a careful manner. That means inter alia; assessing the house for sale at the correct value, taking beautiful photos for Funda, listening to what we consider important information to pass on to interested parties, having confidence that the viewings are well organized, regular feedback takes place regarding the sales procedure, when there are questions…

Real estate agent Jeroen Kalmeijer was always accessible to us. He is approachable/easygoing, thinks along with you, is honest in his advice and feedback. You know what you get with him.

What an incredibly nice realtor. Jeroen has a lot of expertise and guided me through all the considerations and decisions. I am very pleased with the realtor's actions and will definitely recommend him!

A very fine real estate agent with a good understanding of the market. Really enjoyed a pleasant collaboration and recommend everyone in the region to let Kalmeijer Makelaars handle the sale of their house. Especially satisfied with the speed at which everything went, from the first conversation until the house was offered online but also the communication and viewings.

We definitely recommend this realtor. Expert and personal. Pleasant communication and very accessible for all our questions.

We engaged Kalmeijer Makelaars after we had scheduled a viewing. Jeroen Kalmeijer was on vacation but immediately started working for us. During his vacation, he familiarized himself with the property, made contact with the selling party, and personally viewed the property directly after his vacation. His advice regarding the bid proved to be spot on, slightly higher than the other bids with exactly the right conditions. We are impressed by the expertise, network of contacts, and decisiveness of Jeroen Kalmeijer. In addition, communicating with Kalmeijer Makelaars was always pleasant, regretful, and efficient. This gave us so much confidence that we decided to also engage Kalmeijer Makelaars for the sale of our current house.

An ON realtor From the first minute it was clear that this realtor did not act professionally. The only thing he did was open the door for us. After that, he stood in the room and only paid attention to his phone. • There was no information about the property. • There was no tour. • There were no answers to simple questions. To questions like: What is the year of construction of the extension? What are the energy costs and consumption? No ready sales knowledge was noticeable here. However, there was a commitment that he would look up the answers and share them with us. This promise was not kept. Our offer was digitally submitted and also physically placed through the office's mailbox. No confirmation was sent regarding this, or any form of acknowledgement of receipt given. Communication is therefore also not a strong suit. This realtor cannot be reached by phone. Not at the office, not on his mobile number. Not even during business hours. When we called the opening hours listed on the website, we heard a recorded message saying that the office was closed. The rare times he was reachable, he proved to be unskilled. He gives an incorrect assessment of movable and immovable property. Doubtful cases are not described in the NVM list of movable and immovable assets. Here he excels in incompleteness. Incorrect information is included in the preliminary purchase agreement. When this is discussed, he brushes it aside and talks over it. Examples of this are the cadastral boundary and the year of construction of the property. As a contact person between me and the sellers, he takes no action and pushes every form of communication onto the selling party. Untrustworthy, unskilled, and unreachable are certainly terms that we experienced during our purchase. Even during the inspection visit for the transfer, there was no attention to us at all. No congratulations on the purchase, no tip to take another look at the movable assets, no feedback requested about the course of events. Instead, he immediately started using his Chromebook and we received information about his second COVID-19 shot that he needed to get. Did he not do anything right? Maybe one thing. He did call the bank once with a request to stop repeatedly changing the mortgage terms and finalize the mortgage. That was successful. My conclusion is that wherever the prefix ON- applies, it applies to this man. In addition to untrustworthy, unskilled, incomplete, uninterested, unreachable, and non-communicative, I consider him an ON realtor.

Very good experience with selling the house! Always willing to help and go the extra mile. Top!

Top Broker. A sold house within 3 weeks for a good price

I would like to advise everyone to always keep an eye on things yourself to ensure fairness and understand the rules and your rights. If necessary, seek advice from the notary or at the NVM. Hence this review. The viewings went without problems.

We are very positive about the contact with the real estate agent. Everything went smoothly and he was knowledgeable. He knew what he was talking about. Nice man. I could call him whenever it was needed. We were incredibly happy with this real estate agent. Nothing was ever too much to ask. Everything was arranged perfectly. We recommend this real estate agent who is also thinking of selling his house!

The contact went very smoothly. Keeps appointments well. Understands his profession. We were kept well informed.

Never dealt with a realtor before but I found Peter very friendly and skilled. Adriaan also helped us with the objection against the WOZ assessment of the house. Always kept informed and therefore trust. Well informed about viewers and at the end, a quick phone call. Very pleasant.

No action is being taken regarding the complaints procedure; it could just as well be scrapped. Unworthy of a broker. Objective and independent appraisal? Does that mean an appraiser can just say anything? You rather mean that amounts are mentioned that are irredeemable. And when we ask questions about this, they remain unanswered. A worthless appraisal for us. As a supplement: the judge agreed with us and crossed out Witzier's invoice!!!

Fast response to questions, kept me well informed of developments, optimally aligned, presented questions, gave good advice.

My previously obtained references proved to be completely correct: expert and pleasant agents, reliable with appointments, constantly informing both buyer and seller and realistic regarding pricing. Attractive compiled sales information through brochures, advertisements etc. Knowing how they can bring both parties together!

Highly involved and expert real estate agent, the contact was very pleasant. Good accessibility and ultimately a great result. Highly recommended!

No response to questions asked... Even with insistence from NVM, Witzier remains silent. With the high prices being charged, you should expect more.

We had very good contact with the real estate agent. He was aware of all matters surrounding our house, such as arranging a meeting place for young people, our leasehold land, upcoming housing construction. Sometimes we felt he knew too much. ;) During the viewings, our wishes were taken into account, which was very nice. Regularly, he encouraged us when we thought the house had been on the market for too long. Ultimately, it was five months. Yes, what is long for a somewhat more expensive property. He…

The real estate agent is very involved, gives good advice and is very knowledgeable. He knows the file off by heart, investigates everything thoroughly. We are more than satisfied with this real estate agent and gladly recommend him.

The contact was pleasant, good, accurate, friendly, helpful, everything was negotiable. Pleasant to deal with!

Good contact, everything neatly arranged.. Pleasant cooperation, Everything went well, Beautiful prospectus made of our house

We had good contact with the real estate agent before the start of the sale and throughout the entire sales process. In retrospect, the asking price was perhaps a bit too high given that the market has changed quite a bit in the last year.

Sold after only 4 weeks in this difficult market. Fantastic support from, among others, Peter and Jolanda. Very satisfied.

We always had quick and good contact with the real estate agent. He understood our wishes and needs. He turned out to be knowledgeable and showed himself to be involved. We are very satisfied with this real estate agent.

Professional approach, excellent real estate agent. Knows how to reach the right target group with good knowledge of the subject.

Our realtor was extremely helpful and easy to reach for questions. He understood well what we needed and acted quickly on it.

We are very satisfied with the guidance regarding the sale of the apartment. Also, the many questions from potential buyers, a great many, were answered by him in a very professional manner.

Honest towards interested parties, no aggressive salesperson, friendly, thinks along with you, good service, knowledge of the market.

Good personal contact, pleasant process. The sales process went smoothly. Expert real estate agent with good advice.

We are very satisfied with the real estate agent who spoke to us perfectly. Only compliments. We will definitely recommend him.

Marnix is a quiet, friendly man. Without much fuss, he helps us through buying and selling troubles. We really enjoy the pleasant atmosphere.

Pleasant collaboration during the sale of our house.

What was closed, stood before a solid door.

A fine and expert consultation where the sale was realized within a very short timeframe. The aftercare was also to our satisfaction.

Everything went as expected, expert in real estate. Clear in communication. Great experience, just good😀

I rented an apartment through Holland West on Verbeerkstraat for 6 months, I moved out in mid-September. The landlord is Nationale Vastgoed Groep (NVG), who represents Holland West. Almost 3 months have passed since my move and I still haven't received my deposit of over 3000 euros from NVG. They have no reason to withhold the deposit, according to the inspection report everything was in order. I strongly advise against renting through this company, as you may need to take legal action to get your deposit back. Moreover, the apartments (advertised as luxury…) on Verbeekstraat are poorly maintained, the hallway smells and is dirty, the furniture, the floor is worn out, dirty, smelly, dirty and old. The apartments look like they haven't been renovated for at least twenty years. And of course it’s not possible to view the apartment before you rent it, they send you an old low-quality video, and that's all. Walls were dirty, windows weren't cleaned once while I lived there. A dead bird lay on the roof for months. When I moved in, I had to clean for days to make it somewhat livable, and even repair things like the shower hose. That’s funny, because they deduct ‘professional’ cleaning costs of almost 300,- from the deposit – but the apartment was completely dirty.) The neighborhood is disgusting, always full of garbage. Especially for the price you pay, not worth it at all. As an extra, they wanted to deduct 30(!) euros from the deposit per non-working lamp, even if those lamps didn't work from the beginning…

Excellent service! The entire process went perfectly thanks to the professional and engaged approach of this real estate agent. This real estate agent from Het Groene Hart is also familiar with the Bollentreek and therefore also Noordwijk, which greatly helped us in making the right choices. Recommended for everyone who wants to buy or sell without worries!

They think along with you well, are honest in their assessment and have an open communication. You feel heard and your wishes are properly followed. Nice company!

I can wholeheartedly recommend this real estate agent and actually you see this agent too little in the street scene of Alphen aan de Rijn. The communication from the real estate agent is very good. They think along, provide good information, and you can always contact them with questions. All in all very satisfied!

Contact flowed easily and smoothly. Sometimes I did get the feeling that the sale had to be easy and quick, quickly agreeing to an offer and not wanting to extract the utmost. The shed wasn't included initially, it took a while before that was changed.

Holland West helped us well; the communication took place via email, telephone and WhatsApp with various people. The process was well guided and the bids were presented clearly. I wholeheartedly recommend Holland West.

Excellent service and personal contact with Holland West.

From the very first moment of contact, we were received hospitably and kindly. Expertise and knowledge of the industry were clearly visible, and there was a collaborative approach. Throughout the entire process, contact was maintained and we were informed.

The contact was very pleasant and professional. The real estate agent had a lot of market knowledge, but also helped us with strategic decisions by giving good advice.

Expert and proactive service. Very nice to work with, and I have done that several times now 👍

My girlfriend and I rented an apartment on Verbeerkstraat via Holland West from 29/03/24 to 28/06/24. The company that manages the property is Nationale Vastgoed Groep (NVG), who represents Holland West. As of the time we are writing this, we have still not received our deposit of over 3000 euros from NVG. They have given us no reason to withhold our security deposit; on the contrary, we received an almost perfect inspection report when we moved out. If you are considering renting a room via Holland West on Verbeekstraat, you may need to take legal action to get your deposit back. Holland West does not retain your deposit, but they represent NVG who do, and if you look at the reviews below, it appears that Holland West is aware of their behavior. Holland West should not cooperate with these people, and as long as they do, they are enabling this kind of behavior at best, and in the worst case exposing vulnerable expats to a potentially unscrupulous company.

Very poor communication. We had to ask ourselves for updates regarding the sales process. No proactive attitude towards us. No noticeable or visible efforts were made to expedite the sale or make it attractive to potential buyers.

Extremely happy that I went with Holland West for the sale of my apartment. From the very first contact moment, it felt professional, but at the same time personal and involved. The entire process ran smoothly, partly thanks to the clear communication and sound advice. The real estate agents Arie-Jan and Chris in this case knew exactly how the property had to be put on the market and kept me constantly informed of every step. In short, a professional ma…

It went completely well. Good price and sold within a few days. Professional experienced realtor with extensive knowledge.

The realtor didn't show up for the appointment. The house turned out to have already been sold, but we weren't cancelled. Poor and not customer-friendly!
