All brokers in Purmer

We initially worked with Gaby to buy our house as first-time buyers as an expat buyer in Amsterdam. Because we were new to the Dutch housing market, he guided us excellently through everything, including handling our offer, arranging technical inspections, and finding a notary. So when it was time to upgrade, we were happy to work with him again for the sale of that property and the purchase of a second one. Gaby is very experienced and an expert in the Amsterdam housing market. With his help, we got a great bid and are very happy with our sale. We are also super happy with our new house! I would definitely recommend Thuis in Vastgoed (and have done so!) to any expat seeking help navigating the Dutch housing market.

I am super happy with this realtor. Have nothing to criticize, incredibly good, expert and pleasant guidance. I would recommend this realtor to everyone.

Gaby Balkema of Thuis in Vastgoed excellently guided the sale of my property. Flexible and proactive!

Migiel and Gaby are expert real estate agents with a great deal of experience in the Amsterdam housing market; they know the history, pros and cons, and (market) developments in almost every district. They have a large network, stay on top of things, and are very involved with their clients.

Highly expert and experienced, offers space and tranquility in the process that can be hectic (given the market). Further involved, sympathetic, and pleasant to deal with. A combination of qualities I have not seen before in a real estate agency.

Knowledgeable broker who knows the market well. Takes the time, not impatient. Helps a lot with the bidding process.

The real estate agent fully met expectations. He accurately predicted the market and provided adequate advice.

It turned out to be more difficult than expected, but ultimately everything went perfectly after all, also thanks to Migiel's good effort and continued involvement.

Gaby is a pleasure to work with -- he has a lot of knowledge and experience -- gives good advice -- and is super friendly -- a top experience!

Migiel is always there for you, very professional in every step of the process, available to suggest the right thing to do and, most important, honest and transparent. I have <span class='text-oranje-500'>recomended</span> him to several friends and everybody was very happy.

Migiel guided us very nicely through the sale of our house. Even in the run-up to the sale of our home, before we actually decided to move, Migiel helped us well. He even managed to prevent us from a significant financial setback. The photos and sales text were incredibly good and realistic at the same time. He was flexible for the viewings and thought along well. It was nice working with Migiel and we can wholeheartedly …

Nice human broker Quick and professional For the 2nd time in my life a pleasant experience with this broker

Gaby was the absolute best. Helped us with everything and was always available for questions and some times last minute viewings. Very professional and friendly.

I am very satisfied with Thuis in Vastgoed. Migiel is a pleasant, no-nonsense real estate agent with extensive knowledge of both the market and the neighborhood where my apartment was sold. He had a clear and concise sales strategy with a well-thought-out plan, which gave me great confidence. From start to finish, he kept me well informed of every development, large or small, and he was always excellently accessible. In addition, I was very pleased with the photographer and the …

Migiel van Thuis in Vastgoed helped me well with finding a new apartment. Given my specific housing wishes and the persistent shortage on the housing market, I expected it to take considerably longer or that I would have to make concessions, neither of which turned out to be the case. Migiel is knowledgeable, helpful, and where necessary also critical. I would definitely recommend him.

Migiel guided me through both the purchase and sales process with good results. Given my specific housing wishes, I expected it to take a long time before I found a suitable home, but that turned out not to be the case. Also, Migiel managed to sell my current house well. I wholeheartedly recommend Migiel.

Pleasant and accessible contact. Thinks along well and knows the market very well. Reliable partner in selling my house. Apartment sold quickly and well!

Joost is a really great realtor. He is knowledgeable, both technically and procedurally. He helped me with the sale of my apartment. Something that didn't seem too complex to me beforehand, but which turned out to involve much more fine-tuning and timing. He has a good view of the market and really knows what he's talking about. Truly very pleasant how he guides you through such a process, which you don't go through every day. Finally, he is particularly honest and funny too. It's starting to get a bit boring, but I can’t help but give him 5 stars. Really can’t think of anything he didn’t do optimally.

We heard about J-oost through various sources (builders and neighbors). And he was as good as they said. He helped us advertise, present, and sell our house in Amsterdam Oost in the first week of the listing! His price advice was perfect and he did his utmost to make the viewings perfect; he also acted as our power of attorney. Strongly recommend!

We managed to find a house in Amsterdam, no easy task, while receiving support and guidance from Joost every step of the way. Joost has extensive knowledge of the housing market and was particularly helpful with the legal and administrative aspects of the process. Without him, we certainly wouldn't have had a smooth experience, so his constant support is greatly appreciated! Thank you very much Joost! Yuval and Sara

Joost helped us very well throughout the entire process of buying our house. Joost took the time for us and was always available for questions. In addition, it wasn't a problem for Joost to work quickly, so we were able to complete the purchase process in just five (!) weeks after viewing our dream home. In short, if you are looking for a real estate agent who takes the time for you and works efficiently, then you have come to the right place with J-oost!

If you're still hesitant about a real estate agent, don't be. Joost is truly a very good, reliable real estate agent who achieves great results. We are incredibly happy with how well Joost guided us through the entire sale of our house and thought along with us much more than we dared to hope. Our situation was quite complex but Joost was always there for us and took the time to discuss everything thoroughly and look for solutions. Another major plus point is that Joost is also very reliable in calling back, something we missed with other real estate agents. We never had to call back, mostly Joost would pick up immediately or call back quickly. And an addition from my husband “Joost has a good sense of humor”. Something which is not unimportant either 😅 If we have to describe Joost in 2 words it's "honest and reliable".

Een huis kopen is een ontzettend chaotische en rommelige fase in je leven waar een hoop stress bij gepaard gaat. Vanaf het moment dat we Joost bij onze aankoop hebben betrokken was hij een oase van rust en structuur. Zijn begeleiding bij de laatste stappen van het process waren ontzettend waardevol, bijvoorbeeld met het doorlezen van de vele (juridische) documenten die je moet doorlezen. Joost erbij hebben gaf ons de ruimte om ons minder te daarmee bezig te houden en juist het moment van een huis kopen ook echt te vieren! Achteraf gezien had ik J-OOST er meteen bij moeten betrekken! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Buying a house is an incredibly messy and chaotic phase of your life that comes with a huge amount of stress. <span class='text-oranje-500'>the minute we involved Joost in our purchase he was an unending source of organization and tranquility.</span> His guidance in the final steps of the process was of incredible value, for example when Joost did a close reading of the many (legal) documents you are expected to read. <div class='text-blauw-500'>This freed us from having to worry about all this and gave us the headspace to enjoy the moment of achievement that comes with buying a house!</div> My only regret is that I didn't involve J-OOST from the start!

I can no longer recommend Joost to everyone who wants to buy a house. He guided us (first-time buyers) through everything and made the entire process easy to understand and smooth. In addition, he was always on our side to ask questions and guide us where we lacked the knowledge ourselves. He turned what could have been a stressful process into an enjoyable one. Thanks Joost!

Joost is a fantastic and reliable realtor whom I wholeheartedly recommend to everyone! He listens well to your wishes and thinks along with you, always trying to remain honest and objective. He has been indispensable to me in my search for an apartment in Amsterdam and I look back on a very pleasant and successful search! Thank you Joost!

First, I didn't see the point of a buyer's agent, but my beloved was very firm, so it happened. Joost protected us from a bad purchase. I can only say that Joost has proven to be a very skilled buyer's agent.

We enjoyed working with Joost very much. He is a great advisor and accurate in his analyses. We found our house! Work with him, you won't regret it!

What a pleasant experience with Joost. He was able to create clarity from the beginning in the search process and guided virtually every step of the entire process. We highly recommend Joost! Thanks again, Joost!

Initially, we doubted whether it was necessary to hire a real estate agent for the sale and purchase of our new home. But J-OOST has proven the added value. Very knowledgeable, punctual, very pleasant to communicate with, responds quickly to questions, keeps appointments and gives his honest opinion. We can wholeheartedly recommend him!

We really had a top experience with J-OOST. Thanks to Joost, we truly experienced the process of buying our first home as very enjoyable. There was a great connection and we could always laugh together. Joost really takes care of everything for you and is always there for you. In addition, he was super well prepared at every viewing + in the purchasing process so you can really go through the process worry-free - No stress allowed! Thanks to him, we were able to buy the house of our dreams, which is a real challenge in Amsterdam's tight market. Furthermore, Joost has extensive knowledge of the Amsterdam housing market and therefore gives very good advice, knows how to place the right bid and determine the best strategy. I would recommend Joost to everyone looking for a real estate agent who thinks along with you and goes that extra mile! Joost has also surrounded himself with a strong network of professionals who deliver high quality and whom he is happy to connect you with. The service that Joost provided was amazing and when it's time for a new house again or the sale of our current home, we are sure to find him again!

Joost was always involved and accessible. He really did his research and was very careful. Thanks to him, it was also enjoyable and the whole process went super well. Absolutely recommended!

Joost is a very skilled and friendly real estate agent. Good at communication and clearly understands the business. I would absolutely recommend him as a real estate agent in East Amsterdam. We sold our house problem-free and for a good price thanks to Joost.

Joost! The absolute professional! Truly a pleasure to work with. From the beginning, Joost understood our wishes and needs throughout the entire experience. Being an expat and finding a house in NL was a calm and reassuring experience. The time he takes to explain every step of the process really became clear when we ended up at our dream home! Thanks Joost!

Excellent, very knowledgeable and professional real estate agent. Through Joost, we found a dream house. Joost has a personal approach, thinks along well, but is also critical and has a realistic strategy. We thought we knew the East well, but Joost knows even more and sometimes has unexpected information that is very helpful when making choices. Highly recommended without reservation!!

Well guided and a pleasant personal connection.

We are very satisfied with the service. Our house was sold quickly and, thanks to good advice, we were able to purchase our new home. We received excellent financial support throughout this process.

Everything went exactly as expected and to everyone's satisfaction. I have sold and bought several homes over the years through Bert van Vulpen, and each time I have been extremely pleased. I plan not to move again but who knows until next time!

Had a very pleasant experience with Sanne van den Boogaard as the real estate agent, but also with Sanne Maas as further point of contact. I was well informed and advised about the asking price, and throughout the entire process, there was collaboration on how I could (have) arrange everything for my house in the most optimal way possible. The sale proceeded quickly and smoothly, and the contact during the process has always been pleasant.

Contact with Sanne and Sanne from Bert van Vulpen went smoothly throughout the entire process. Ultimately chose Bert van Vulpen because the feeling was simply good and no regrets about that! I was well advised about the asking price and happy with the final sale.

Good communication, clear agreements, good feedback on questions, friendly in demeanor. Excellent documentation and excellent help with questions.

We were fantastically helped from beginning to end, during the stressful period, with the sale of our home. Hanoch was almost 24/7 available for all our questions and comments! Thank you

From beginning to end, we were fantastically helped during the stressful period of selling our home. Hanoch almost 24/7 available for our questions and comments and quick responses!

Clear, timely and effective communication. And great people from every individual department who are always willing to help!

Great experience with Bert van Vulpen Zaandam. I chose them when I was impressed by the way Hanouch showed me someone else's house because I had bought the property with so much detail and interest. So I decided to use them to sell my house and that turned out to be a good decision. The entire team is very genuine and fast, but my special mention goes to Hanouch, who is always cheerful and ready to assist you at every step while also being ready to listen to your wishes. I would highly recommend them.

Fast sale. The asking price was well estimated and strategically chosen. We are happy with this realtor. The market for sellers is also very favorable, which helps too.

Highly recommended! Bert van Hulpen helped us excellently and assisted us in finding our perfect home. We are extremely satisfied with the entire experience. Every team member was incredibly helpful, responsive, and easy to reach when needed. Their quick actions and clear communication ensured that the process went smoothly. Thanks again for everything!

Top real estate agents are always ready for you with good and skilled people, excellent service, definitely recommended.

Highly recommended! Bert van Hulpen provided exceptional service and helped us find our perfect home. We are extremely satisfied with the entire experience. Every team member was incredibly helpful, responsive, and easy to reach whenever needed. Their quick actions and clear communication made the process seamless. Thank you again for everything!

Top realtor and mortgages with very good honest staff.

Great tour, house was excellent.

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.

Our agent, Wesley, always gave us great and honest advice and helped us in every step of the process. We highly recommend this agency.

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.

This is the third time when we worked with TVM, specifically with Wesley. Choosing them another time is the best proof of our opinion about this company. We received continous support, comprehensive guidance and expertise. These are the people who go beyond to achieve the best results for you. I am really happy to recommend TVM !

A realtor who listens well to you regarding the appeal factor of the property and isn't price-driven to market the property correctly, which has accelerated the sale.

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.

Wesley from TWM was very patient and kind with us throughout our year long search for our first home. I can’t thank him enough! He helped us in any way in our journey by asking the right questions from us, sharing honest opinions, sharing many tips, and more.

Very knowledgeable and provides great service. Helpful in organizing everything that we needed help with.

Valuation report was super fast in the email. Fast service.

I worked with Maurits, who was incredible! I've dealt with several real estate agents before, and it often felt like minimum effort, poor to no communication, and a sense of being exploited. But with Maurits, it was a completely different experience - Amazing!! From start to finish, his communication was exceptional—clear, open, and honest every step of the way. I truly felt like he was working with me and not just chasing a commission. For the first time, I could actually rela…

Pleasant and personal guidance. Always available for questions and immediate action and answers.

1 million stars! Rogier is the best in his world. I live abroad, Rogier managed to help me checkout tenants, repaint, repair, style, sell in a record time, without me coming to Amsterdam (except for the Sales Contract). I didn't know this level of service existed... Absolutely outstanding. I highly recommend him to anyone. Stressfree, Efficient, Clear... what else do you need!

Rogier helped me excellently with the sale of my house. He has a sharp insight into the market and understands people well, which means he knows exactly how to reach the right buyers. His approach is clear, pragmatic and effective. Thanks to his expertise and commitment, my house was sold within two weeks. I can wholeheartedly recommend Rogier!

The realtor was friendly and professional. He gave a good picture of the price expectation, and clearly indicated what could be done to show the space in the best possible way. Had a pleasant collaboration!

Had good conversations and a pleasant experience overall with the sale of the house. Following the realtor's advice, we had the open houses, and that went perfectly. Definitely a realtor to recommend.

Jan-Jaap really helped us well with the sale of our apartment and garage box in Amsterdam Buitenveldert. Jan-Jaap is a nice person, very skilled in his profession with extensive case knowledge and takes care of you during the sales process. An absolute recommendation to work with Jan-Jaap!

Everything went perfectly. The photos and video material were excellently taken care of, viewings were very tightly scheduled, and the absolute best was made of it. No point of criticism to mention.

Contact with Pelle was always pleasant and we are very satisfied with the result. We highly recommend him.

Neat, informative and thoughtful reception during a viewing in Castricum. Jori gave us all the space to feel whether this house could be a winner for us. Thinking along and advising so that you can also live comfortably in the future. A very pleasant experience.

Would highly recommend Rogier De Vries. Overall experience was stress-free, as his team handled everything. He accompanied me to viewings and looked out for things that I wasn’t aware of. I managed to find a place within a few weeks with him. Great service, thank you!

Rogier de Vries welcomed us as the sales broker during the viewing. He was friendly and helpful with the question we had. He is honest, and that was very nice for us.

Pelle isn't just working expertly and professionally, he is also friendly, approachable, and always available. This, with a lot of local knowledge and an eye for the social aspects of his work. I can only strongly recommend him.

Pelle is a pleasant and flexible agent who thinks along with you and has expertise. He sold my house well.

Maurits is a talent in the Real Estate Industry. He knows exactly which points he needs to pay attention to, and executes them as if it's nothing. He is a breath of fresh air to work with. Even if only because he keeps calm so well.

Good realtor! The house is beautiful! Not the house for us. Regards Saskia Swaak

Very satisfied with the viewing. Pelle Freijsen received me very kindly and gave me a very detailed and honest description of the property. I greatly appreciate his conversation and the time he took to answer all my questions and ensure that I understood everything. Thank you!
