J.J. van Oosten Makelaardij | Baerz & Co

A warm and professional process from beginning to end. After living with much pleasure in our detached house in Hillegersberg for 40 years, the moment came to say goodbye. Thanks to the personal and warm approach of our real estate agent, this process went very smoothly. From the first conversation, we felt heard and understood. The valuation of our home was realistically and beautifully assessed, and we also found the agreed commission very reasonable. Throughout the entire sales process, we were carefully kept informed after each viewing by Joris, which was very nice – especially when you have lived in a house for so long and are curious about the impression of potential buyers. The property was ultimately sold quickly, which is naturally fantastic. At the same time, we also felt sorry because that meant contact with Joris came to an end – and that contact was so valuable. A warm person with passion for the business and attention for people. We look back on the collaboration with a good feeling and wholeheartedly recommend J.J. van Oosten makelaardij B.V.!

Very professional real estate agent, who guides you very well through all the steps to sell your house and buy a house. Very pleasant collaboration. An advantage is also that Joris van Oosten knows the neighborhood well and can therefore assess the market well. Selling my house was quick and good thanks to this! Definitely recommended!

Great realtor. Always remains calm, professional, and helps you with a lot of industry and market knowledge to success. Has helped us twice with buying a house, and once with selling. All very successful. Highly recommended.

Worked with Van Oosten for both the purchase of our current house and the sale of our previous house. Experienced both sides and extremely satisfied in both cases with the contacts, appointments and handling.

The service of Van Oosten Makelaardij, and in particular from Lex, was excellent. I had approached three real estate agents for a sales proposal. With Baljon, I felt there was little interest; the proposal was even forgotten to be sent. The proposed asking price was also far below the final selling price, without any justification as to how this amount was determined. The second broker, Plek Makelaardij, had factual inaccuracies in the proposal...

Contact flowed smoothly! A bit short sometimes! I was certainly well helped! And the explanation to my questions were clear!

Very professional real estate agent who guides you well through the process of selling and buying with all the steps required for that. All colleagues were also very pleasant to work with. Joris knows the neighborhood well and can therefore also make a good assessment of the market value. Definitely recommended!

The sale went well. Joris gave good advice, including regarding the styling. We are satisfied with the result and the approach followed.

Had a really great experience with Lex and the rest of the team, they are very accessible. Good service and you are well informed during the entire process. Our house sold with much success.

From the beginning a good feeling and they lived up to it. Really did their best, supervised excellently from start to finish.

The contact went very smoothly. I received expert advice on the approach to the sale. This applied to the asking price, the application for a new energy label and the furnishing with furniture so that the apartment looked good. There was great interest, two bids were equally high, good advice received to continue with one of them.

Very pleasantly assisted by Van Oosten, both in the purchase and sales process. Definitely recommended!

Contact with the real estate agent went perfectly from the very beginning. Over time, Lex took over from Joris and for the 2nd time he has succeeded in selling a house for us successfully. We are completely satisfied and happy.

What a fun and engaged team! They help you keep your head cool in turbulent times. Recommended!

Expert advice, very professional, pleasant contact with Joris and colleagues and a good result. In short, I would recommend everyone to sell their house through Van Oosten!

The sale of the house was in good hands with Joris and his colleagues. Everything went smoothly, exudes calmness and confidence, knows what he's talking about. Recommended to have a purchase/sale of a house arranged through them in Rotterdam and surrounding areas!

Van Oosten brings peace and professionalism. We are a returning customer and are once again very satisfied with the result!

Very pleasant purchase experience! Danielle is extremely pleasant to work with.

We are incredibly satisfied with the great service that Lex from Van Oosten Real Estate has provided. From the very first contact to signing the deed and transfer at the notary's office, Lex guided us fantastically, especially with a personal approach. Lex really listens to your wishes and does everything possible to find your dream home. He thinks out of the box and sees potential in homes that you might not immediately consider yourself. This has helped us discover new possibilities and ultimately find the perfect home. During negotiations, Lex was also sharp, professional and decisive. He knows exactly how to achieve the best result. Thanks to his expertise, we felt completely taken care of throughout the entire process. Lex didn't just guide us in searching for a home, but also navigated us through the entire process in a pleasant and professional manner. It felt like we were really working together with someone who put our interests first. We would absolutely recommend Lex and Van Oosten Real Estate to anyone looking for an involved, knowledgeable and creative real estate agent!

We had very pleasant contact with Joris and his team. They are clear, service-oriented, and involved. We felt taken seriously and expertly guided, which resulted in a good sale of our house! And the cleaning service at the end is really a treat :-)

In a short time our house in Blijdorp was sold, for a price that exceeded our expectations. Good guidance from agents Lex and Danielle throughout the entire process. Excellent online presentation (video and photo) which showcased the property optimally.

Van Oosten brings peace and professionalism. We are a returning customer and are once again very satisfied with the result!

Very pleasant contact with Joris and his team. Clear about expectations, service-oriented and very involved. We felt taken seriously and expertly guided, which resulted in a good sale of our house!

Expert real estate agent with extensive knowledge of the value of a specific neighborhood and/or house in Rotterdam. I am happy with the result and their help is certainly worth the price.

Great. I'm just waiting for a response about whether the defects of the property we purchased will be resolved!

The guidance by Van Oosten was professional and skilled. It was very nice that he was so easily accessible and could act quickly. We are super satisfied!

The real estate agent was easily accessible and quick to act, and the good cause with the final cleaning was a ++.

A mandatory explanation? Nope. Still 62 characters, so I'll just copy/paste this for now. A mandatory explanation? Nope. Still 62 characters, so I'll just copy/paste this for now.

With the pleasant expert help and dedication of Tom, Joris and the entire team, we were able to purchase a beautiful house in Hillegersberg Zuid, followed by selling our former house in Blijdorp with equally excellent service. We couldn't have wished for anything better.

Thank you Tom! (and the rest of the team) for the quick action regarding the purchase of our apartment.

Joris helped us well during the purchase of our new home. As a result, we found a lovely house. Also during the sale of our home, he had prepared well with a matching sales strategy. The sale went very smoothly thanks to Tom and the team with a beautiful result. He thought along with strategic as well as practical questions.

I had a very pleasant experience with Tom and the rest of the team. Tom mediated in the purchase of my new home and in the sale of my property. He paid good attention to personal wishes and supplemented this with very good advice, both strategic and practical. Furthermore, all contact with van Oosten was very pleasant and helpful.

Contact with the real estate agent was particularly pleasant. Joris van Oosten (and his colleagues) advised me very well and really thought along with me. He also realized very good deals. He is not a 'standard' real estate agent but genuinely cared about the process. I am very satisfied and would recommend this agency to everyone.

We were able to sell our apartment for a good price through Tom Schoots of Van Oosten Real Estate Agency. The service of the office was also good.

Highly knowledgeable realtor, knows the neighborhood, the historical data and can accurately assess what the market is doing. Pleasant contact and always responds quickly. Thinks along with you, makes the process personal and follows up even after the sale - excellent service.

A fine real estate agent who approaches the first meeting well-prepared and listens. Extensive knowledge of the market and how to make the most of it with a clear and concise explanation. No unrealistic amounts are mentioned in order to entice the client to secure the assignment. Our house was not sold too early or too late, which meant that the estimate and approach were correct. The entire team works and thinks along to relieve you of tasks within the scope of the assignment as much as possible. In short, a real estate agent who knows what he's talking about with his team and whom I can wholeheartedly recommend.

It was enormously nice to have Joris and Tom from Van Oosten Makelaardij as advisors for both the purchase and sale. Actively thinking along, quick responses, good advice regarding bidding as well as further guiding the purchase and sales process. Joris and Tom, thank you!

Our contact with van oosten real estate went smoothly and there was a lot of expertise. In the meantime, we have successfully sold 2 homes together with van oosten. Tom Schoots assisted us well as our contact person and is also easily accessible on weekends and evenings! Thanks Tom and Van Oosten!

Good service

Very satisfied with both the sale of the old house and also the search and purchase of the new house! I can wholeheartedly recommend Oosten Makelaardij to everyone!

Really received excellent guidance throughout the entire process. We had Lex as our fixed point of contact and he did the viewings, which was a very pleasant collaboration!

Selling price exceeded our best expectations. Friendly and expert service. Perfect sales presentation. Our house was in terms of design somewhat different from average, but where other real estate agents came with objections, firm Van Oosten saw opportunities.

Pleasant contact, honest information and interim updates, and ultimately the house was sold within a reasonable period. I am very satisfied.

I had a very pleasant experience. The broker is personal and keeps his finger on the pulse at every step and change. Also, the advice is well thought out and with an eye on you.

A realtor who, with his team, put our house up for sale with an honest, realistic and personal approach and managed to sell it successfully. No making empty promises that are not feasible in practice. Thank you very much to the entire team and don't let go of this line! Teus Jan

The agent was knowledgeable, knew what he was talking about, communicated clearly and negotiated well on the price

First time selling a house with Van Oosten, after having already bought a house twice with his guidance. Very satisfied with the sales process. They created a beautiful presentation package and then took enough time to plan the viewings. Good thought had been given to the strategy and timing, resulting in a good result.

Excellent contact and feedback. I was regularly kept informed about interest in my house.

I think Joris is a great, reliable realtor! He thinks with you and gives you confidence.

I'm also involved in the profession myself but must say top-notch service from this realtor in Rotterdam! Lots of patience and personal contact even during his vacation. I’ve learned a lot from him regarding service. Super friendly people too. So if you’re not going with us, definitely go with Van Oosten ;-)

Neatly assisted Customer-friendly
