Esther Otten is a great realtor. She thinks with you, gives invaluable advice, takes all the stress away from you, and even wins the heart of your grumpy cat.

We were recommended Esther by a friend who had a positive experience with Esther but despite several promises to call back, she did not do so. Afterwards, we made multiple attempts ourselves but could no longer get in touch. It's probably because business is going well that she doesn't need new customers.

From the very first moment, a good feeling about Esther. Gave a beautiful presentation of the house. Provided advice that was very useful. Always kept me well informed.

Esther was luckily able to quickly connect and communicate with me and the sales agent, we had good contact and considering the time pressure she had a pragmatic approach.

Working with Esther as our buyer's agent was an exceptionally positive experience. From the beginning, her down-to-earth approach stood out, which made the entire process of searching for and buying a house much less stressful. Esther's expertise and commitment were clearly visible in every step. She listened attentively to our wishes and needs, gave valuable advice, and was always available to answer our questions. It was clear that she had our interests at…

I can recommend Esther to everyone! A super nice realtor. She handles things quickly and easily. We are very satisfied with her services.

Esther is a very pleasant realtor. Besides her knowledge and experience, it's really nice to work together. We definitely recommend her!

Esther works very professionally, quickly and directly. In the process towards the sale, she guided us well and took into account the emotions that come with selling a home. Very pleasant collaboration!

Esther helped us very carefully. She involved us in all the steps and we really felt that she took the time for us. She advised us well on price/quality. She took over the negotiating for us and we trusted her knowledge and experience. This certainly benefited us. We now have what we wanted and we got her price out of it through the negotiations she conducted. The nice thing is that she has a small company and she doesn't have customers…

Esther is a top performer in the area of selling and buying a home

Good start to a nice collaboration

Esther guided my friend and I in the search for our 1st home. We met her as a selling agent, felt a connection and asked if she would represent us as a buying agent. We received valuable advice and expert guidance, especially with fine-tuning our housing wish, which locations matched, and customisation when making offers. One of the nicest agents we encountered during our search in Haarlem.

PMA and Martin are among the best property managers I have ever worked with. Any issues were quickly addressed and resolved. The check-in and check-out process went smoothly, and he made sure that I received my full deposit back. I hope to have the opportunity to work with them again in the future.

Good service for years, a real recommendation!

Martin from PMA was extremely reliable in managing our rental property in Amsterdam; always ready to help us and manage a difficult situation. He was great to work with and I would highly recommend him.

Strongly recommended! PMA and Martin have been managing our apartment for just over a year now, and we are very happy with their professionalism and support. Martin is a reliable, friendly, and down-to-earth property manager. We have worked closely with him on a difficult maintenance issue. He communicates excellently with both tenants and owners and found a niche construction specialist who was able to solve our complex moisture problem. We feel that our property is in very good hands. Thank you Martin and PMA!

I had a fantastic experience with this company. The brokers who helped me were always 100% responsive and to the point with the information they provided and the challenges they solved with tenants. Definitely recommended.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Property Manager Amsterdam. Martin is a nice guy and a great professional. He is always very responsive and super helpful. He really helped us find a great apartment to rent. He also manages the apartment and is always there when we need him. My girlfriend and I are very satisfied. Thanks Martijn :)

Martin from ‘Property Manager Amsterdam’ was absolutely fantastic from the day I first inquired about renting out my property in Amsterdam. He gave the best recommendations and guidance to ensure that the real estate attracted the right interest, offered great prospects, and was perfectly marketed. He was always available to answer any questions. And ultimately, Martin made sure the entire rental process went very smoothly and took care of every step, which made my life easy. Thank you so much, I will be eternally grateful to you, and I will definitely use this service again!

I definitely would not recommend this company! I am surprised to read in the review that there are professionals… It took us a few weeks to be able to live properly in our apartment (no hot water, broken terrace door, non-working heating…). They were not responsive and always said first that it could be our fault. We had to arrange many things ourselves. And now they don't even want to return our deposit for energy bills we’ve never heard of, which they can’t even pay and which are not in the contract… Very disappointing and such behavior is clearly not reliable for either side of a rental: tenant or owner. (We are used to renting many apartments and this is the worst ever!!!!)

They clearly bought all their reviews, because everyone I've spoken to has had the same problems with them. Expect to wait months before anything is done. Don't rely on their promises, because you won't get anywhere anyway.

The Property Manager supported me in purchasing the apartment that I rented. I greatly appreciate their guidance and friendly attitude!

We have been working with them for over 3 years now. Highly recommended. Property Manager Amsterdam is attentive and future-oriented and has people who demonstrate in every interaction that they care about their clients.

Bad service, people very unprofessional. Not recommended

Great team, great services. I've been working with them for 3 years and so far everything has gone well.

We hired Property Manager Amsterdam (PMA) when they were just starting out. Over the years, if something went wrong, we reasoned that PMA lacked experience. But with the latest lease agreement, we could no longer justify this excuse. I wish we had stopped collaborating with PMA before it became a time, energy, and money pit. In the latest lease agreement that PMA drew up for us, it stated that our property should be returned in the same condition as the tenant received it. Including the inventory, of which the tenant signed a detailed list upon entry. The agreement also stipulated that the tenant had to deregister with the municipality when terminating the rental agreement. Nevertheless, PMA failed to hold the tenant accountable for the following matters. The tenant: - Did not deregister with the municipality - Damaged paintwork beyond normal wear and tear - Damaged furniture and floors beyond normal wear and tear - Cannot rectify missing inventory - Has consistently failed to report damage to the apartment as required by law - Failure to carry out minor repairs as required by law PMA dismissed each of the above issues, referring to Dutch law and claiming they had to protect their business. I discovered, however, that the lease agreement and Dutch law supported our claims. This gave me the impression that PMA has insufficient knowledge of Dutch law and the Dutch language. It also made me feel that PMA was not on our side. Further below is an additional list of issues that went wrong during the latest rental period. PMA: - Failed to perform proper ownership checks, conduct a cash inventory, and obtain the tenant's signature - No stains were noted on all walls and furniture, with a total repair cost of €5400,- - Did not deliver the property on the agreed date - Did not deliver the property as clean as delivered - Communication was not timely - Failed to take responsibility for their mistakes Overall, it took us four weeks to resolve the mess, which wasn't something we expected when hiring a property manager.

Martin was super helpful throughout the entire process. Responds quickly, actively seeks out the best property within my specifications and can always offer the most interesting homes!

Lars expertly guided my mother through the sale of her apartment. He showed great commitment, was always willing to listen, and ensured clear and careful consultation. Given the rather exceptional situation in which the sale took place, his involvement was all the more valuable. Thanks to his professional approach, the entire process was completed neatly. We are grateful for his efforts and wish him all success in the future.

Very pleasant collaboration with Bakker Makelaardij. Expert, friendly and always accessible. My property sold quickly and successfully!

My expectations were more than met by the real estate agent. Good thorough guidance, clear agreements and everything was followed up on. As far as I'm concerned, definitely recommended and suitable for repetition

Fair and ultimately realistic valuation for a relatively difficult object. Good contact during the various visits and developments, ultimately a satisfied agreement.

Contact was good, when something happened we were immediately notified. Feedback after each viewing. After the first sale didn't go through, they quickly moved on to the next one. In short, absolutely great.

Everything quickly and easily solved - good advice and good care - they also forwarded our mail to us

We are incredibly pleased with Lars' guidance during the purchase of our new home. From the beginning, the communication was clear and quick, which made us feel well-informed. Lars demonstrated a great deal of expertise and gave us valuable advice, which helped us to close a good deal. We felt very supported throughout the entire process and would therefore wholeheartedly recommend Lars from Bakker Makelaardij to anyone looking for a reliable real estate agent.

Bakker is an excellent real estate agent. They helped me well with the purchase of my apartment. The aftercare is also fantastic

An incredibly friendly and easily accessible company! Bakker Makelaardij really helped me fantastically in finding and arranging for my first house!

I didn't really have any expectations, because I don't sell a house annually, but everything went fine.

Thanks to Bakker Makelaardij, we have always been able to arrange both the sale and purchase quickly and without problems. They were expert, easily accessible, and ensured a smooth handling of everything. We are very satisfied and would definitely recommend them.

A highly skilled and engaged team will quickly help you find a home to your liking and guide you through the entire purchasing process. Definitely recommended!

A good realtor with understanding, I was very well helped.

Always ready for me and explains everything very well so that I understand it. So ultimately, I am very satisfied

everything arranged to the last detail, professional and fast processing, tailored advice and a very pleasant collaboration. Thank you!

Dennis has helped us correctly on several occasions with buying and selling.

Excellent service, professionalism and knowledge of the market, sales strategy and techniques.

Dennis is a very accessible real estate agent. Likes to think along with the possibilities. Is realistic when it comes to the value of the properties for sale.

I had the pleasure of working with Dennis during my search for a house, and I couldn't have wished for a better real estate agent. From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. Dennis took the time to understand my needs and preferences and always provided valuable insights and expert advice. His dedication and attention to detail ensured that the whole experience went smoothly and stress-free. The communication was always clear and he responded quickly to all my questions. What truly sets Dennis apart is his genuine care for his clients. He did everything possible to ensure I found the perfect home, and his passion for real estate shines through in the way he works. I wholeheartedly recommend Dennis and Rikken Makelaardij to anyone looking for a reliable and dedicated real estate agent!

Dennis is an incredibly nice guy and also a very reliable and approachable real estate agent. He takes care of everything from start to finish, and remains accessible even after the purchase and sales process is completed. His advice is honest and realistic, which means you're well-prepared for the purchase and sales process.

Dennis contributed to a very successful sale of our house in a very pleasant, transparent and advisory manner. We are very satisfied and absolutely recommend Dennis!

Dennis is an experienced and expert real estate agent. He responds quickly and expertly and has a grasp of the market’s movements before they happen. He also quickly assesses the structural condition of houses and comes up with good tips to personalize a home, should you be less experienced in that area yourself. In addition, he is simply an incredibly friendly and pleasant man to work with and is involved from beginning to end. If I ever need a real estate agent again, I know who to hire!

Dennis has already helped us twice with a fantastic house. He is honest in his advice and thinks about long-term possibilities. It feels very personal with Dennis, he is very pleasant in his communication. Our first property unfortunately didn't go so smoothly from the selling party's side. Dennis put everything into ensuring the purchase would still lead to a good outcome. We would advise everyone to use Dennis and would definitely ask him again for any potential new search.

Through our insurance advisor, we came into contact with Dennis. What a pleasant person and down-to-earth broker. No talker, but clear language and honest. Thinks along and gives good advice. Hopefully not needed, but we would definitely come back if it's necessary.

Pleasantly and expertly assisted with the purchase of a new home. Received reliable and good advice during the search. Communication was very pleasant, and Dennis paid much attention to wishes and possibilities. Helped to our satisfaction.

In 2023 I found and hired Dennis Rikken as my purchase and sales broker. Not a moment of regret! He doesn't have a 9 to 5 mentality. He is quickly able to switch gears and arrange things for the client. The purchase of my new home in Amsterdam went very quickly and smoothly. Dennis took quick action and used his expertise to find out the necessary information and take action to arrange a viewing. He also gave useful tips on what to look for and what to ask during the viewing. After the viewing and acceptance of the bid on the property, the purchase went very quickly. Subsequently, he arranged for my home in Almere to be sold rapidly at an attractive price. All in all, I can recommend Dennis Rikken 👍🏼

Excellent real estate agent – an absolute recommendation! Dennis Rikken is a fantastic broker who helped me enormously with both the purchase of my new home and the sale of my old property. Thanks to his expertise and dedication, I found a wonderful house in a beautiful location. In addition, the sale of my old property went smoothly and professionally. Dennis is not only expert but also involved and reliable. He thinks along, gives honest advice and ensures that everything is arranged to perfection. I am therefore extremely satisfied with his service and recommend him to everyone looking for a top real estate agent!

Dennis helped us tremendously with the sale of our house. By trusting him, we sold our house within 2 days. Top.

D.Rikken is a friendly and honest broker. The contact with him is professional but at the same time warm and human. This is the second time that we have used his services and should there ever be a third time, we would without doubt choose Dennis again. Bob&Marieke

Dennis Rikken is still a real estate agent who helped me perfectly with the sale of my home. Alert, attentive and very thoughtful throughout the entire sales process. Also easily accessible (even outside normal office hours). For me, he was a rock in the storm. I can wholeheartedly recommend Dennis!

Dennis helped us with the buying and selling of our house. Besides being professional and having good knowledge of the market, we found it very nice that Dennis is approachable and for our feeling really stood on our side. Highly recommended!

Dennis is extremely professional and pleasant in communication. When purchasing our house, he clearly communicated what he needed from us, thought along with us, and ensured that we could visit the house several times (which was vacant) for necessary inspections and measurements.

Before Tim - we had lots of viewings in different areas but no luck in this crazy market. Tim helped us to get things done quickly in a couple of viewings. I would recommend Tim in the area of Haarlem, Hoofddorp.

Everything went well during all processes. Thanks to my broker, it makes our life easier. Highly recommended working with them.

Highly recommended! The broker was extremely helpful and professional. He pointed out aspects I would never have noticed on my own, thanks to his expert knowledge and extensive experience. He helped us catch all the crucial details, making the entire purchase and negotiation process quick and stress-free. His dedication and professionalism are truly commendable!

In just a little over a week, I found a beautiful home in Amsterdam Zuid thanks to Tim and his professional and clear approach! Expertise, enthusiasm, and communication are highly valued by him, and with his knowledge of the market, I have achieved my dream house!

Communication was very smooth and professional. We found a very qualified person with strong real estate and construction knowledge which helped to properly scout the market and avoid underestimating some proposal.

Good advice, knowledge of the market and well adapted to it. Real professionals, good for seller and buyer!

Tim is amazing ? The whole experience really beyond my expectation . As a foreigner , I was really worried at the beginning , he is experienced enough to guide me on every step : Strategy, make the plan, and searching, visiting and purchasing, etc. Well organized and great process to the end . I can not be more grateful for all the service and help . I will definitely recommend to any my friends.

Tim Nijenhuis was here to assist me in every step, since the first research till the conclusion of the purchase. He was flexible and attentive, always at my disposal with his expertise. He took the time to thoroughly explain all the details and any potential risks associated with purchasing a particular property. Tim's knowledge of local market trends and his expertise in negotiation was invaluable during the purchase of my new home. I highly recommend his services! …

Had a very pleasant contact with Tim. He has extensive knowledge of various aspects and is enjoyable to work with.

In just a little over a week, I found a beautiful home in Amsterdam Zuid thanks to Tim and his professional and clear approach! Expertise, enthusiasm, and communication are highly valued by him, and that's also the reason why I sold my own house again through this route. Don't look any further because I would recommend Tim to everyone.

Tim Nijenhuis is very honest and professional, not pushy at all, and goes the “extra mile”. We always felt heard.

I would like to thank Mr. Ben Koch for the warm, professional and efficient treatment in our case. It was a pleasure to work with your company and achieve our goal better than we had expected. Thank you!!!

First of all, he inspired a lot of confidence by convincing me that it was especially important to be open about everything, about deferred maintenance, having an independent technical report drawn up, all information that was available (and which he requested via well-prepared detailed questionnaires). In addition, he had a good understanding of what houses in this area offered above and beyond the m2 price and how to discount it. The proposed asking price…

Tim Nijenhuis handled our sale professionally, calmly and successfully in a very difficult market. He went above and beyond to help us as we're not a Dutch family. We would highly recommend him.
