Alliances Makelaardij

Arjan was great in supporting us, his support was even more important as we don’t speak the local language and don’t know the local regulations. He is always available and kept us informed on all the steps. he is still helping us post acquisition.

We completed the sale of Burgemeester Norbruislaan 492 together with Jelle and are incredibly happy about it. From the first contact, his open and honest communication stood out, always easily accessible and with clear explanations. He actively thought along, gave us confidence in every step, and kept us perfectly informed of the progress. The entire process went smoothly, and the result was beyond expectations. Thanks to Jelle, we experienced the sale as carefree and pleasant – truly a…

Very pleasant to deal with and really helped us fantastically with the extra tips to get the house in order for the photos and viewing days. Partly because of this, the house was sold quickly and well.

Arjan is excellent at communication (approachable, responds quickly) and thinks along well. Not a smooth operator, realistic view of the market. He ensured that the entire sales process proceeded very smoothly. All in all, we were very satisfied.

Arjan was our buying agent for our house in Utrecht; we had a great experience with him, he has a friendly approach, he is very professional, and has deep experience in the Dutch market. As expats, he knows how to spot the highlights on the right points, even if it could lead us to skip the house; he truly cares about getting the best house to your taste at the lowest price! He guided us through the critical articles in the purchase agreement and was available all the time. Would absolutely recommend…

Contact has been attempted multiple times, but no response was received.

Very happy with this realtor. Lots of personal contact, involved, good help, understands the subject matter, always reachable and ultimately a beautiful result!

I am very pleased with Arjan as my sales broker. Before, during and after the sale he was very helpful and he exceeded my expectations. Arjan is a pleasant person who really takes the time for you and gives good advice, asked and unasked. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

Contact with Jelle van Tricht went exceptionally smoothly and proactively. Thanks to his guidance and knowledge of the market, we found a suitable house in no time without having to adapt our lives very much! Thank you Jelle! We are super happy with your guidance during the purchase and sale of our home.

After almost 15 years of having my property rented out through Jelle without any problems, the property has now been sold and transferred. Jelle doesn't just think along, but also arranges everything for you.

It was a pleasure to work with Arjan! He was patient with us while we had many demands for a house, for 4 months managed to get us lots of viewing and at the end we found our dream home 🏡 ❤️ we would definitely use his services again when we look to rent again or buy and we recommended him to all our friends. Thanks Arjan

Jelle was our fixed contact person and with him we had a short line, he thinks very constructively and offers suitable solutions. You can safely give him a search assignment that he will tackle assertively! Happy with a beautiful home with a good price/quality ratio.

Jelle is a dedicated and enthusiastic real estate agent who works thoroughly prepared. We confidently recommend Jelle.

Jelle knows the Utrecht housing market like the back of his hand and can advise very accurately and up-to-date based on that. Excellent, accessible communication and a hands-on approach: we would hire Jelle again immediately. Absolutely recommended!

Jelle helped me every step of the way, from finding an apartment to preparing all the necessary documents. He even helped with buying everything needed to place the floor and finding a handyman to do the job for me. And he was always available and eager to help, even after I moved into the apartment.

Arjan has stood by us with dedication from the beginning in our search for a house. With his knowledge, guidance and patience, we found our house. It was a very pleasant search together with Arjan. I wholeheartedly recommend him!

We have had the pleasure of working with Arjan Bouwman Makelaardij over the past three years, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. Since our arrival in Utrecht, Arjan has been more than just a real estate agent, he has been a trusted partner in helping us navigate the housing market. Three years ago, Arjan helped us find the perfect rental home, and this year, he guided us through the process of purchasing our first home in the city. What sets Arjan apart i…

Everything was going well with the realtor, Arjan is more than proficient in his work and arranged everything to the last detail. I can't say anything else.

The real estate agent investigated everything for us, was honest, reliable, and accessible. Exactly what you need around such important steps in your life as buying and selling your house.

The contact with the real estate agent went well and I am generally satisfied. My expectations were largely met, and I found the communication pleasant. The real estate agent was professional and responded quickly to my questions. Overall a positive experience!

I chose Arjan because I realized he is very proactive, and I wouldn’t need to follow up with him myself. After we started working together, I saw that I was right. He was great at keeping track of our requests, and there was never a need to remind him of anything. I don’t recall ever having to follow up on any matter. For each house viewing, we would go over the property documents together, and he always pointed out important details. I recommend him

Alliances Makelaardij and Jelle van Tricht in particular, were very helpful. Their service was very professional, yet very human. They were always available to help, advice, and explain the intricacies of the Dutch real state market. This kind of service is instrumental for expats. I emphatically recommend them.

During the process of searching for and purchasing a home, I was well assisted by Alliances real estate agency. Contact with Arjan and Jelle was good and went smoothly. They thought along well and asked targeted questions to achieve a beautiful result.

Jelle and Arjan are a top team, knowledgeable not only about the market but also very experienced and therefore give truly tailored advice. Good communication, short lines, we would immediately engage them again and recommend them to everyone.

Looking for a real estate agent who goes the extra mile? Then Alliances Makelaardij is the right choice for you! No limit on the number of viewings and they are present with 2 people in the property to personally welcome everyone. Also, in the aftercare after we found a potential buyer, they genuinely continue to think along and remain involved. In short: Received top service from Arjan and Jelle!

From the beginning, my contact with Arjan from Alliances Real Estate was very pleasant for me. I experienced the collaboration as very good. Arjan is knowledgeable and can therefore provide good advice, taking into account my wishes for the purchase of a home. A beautiful result emerged for me here. I would definitely recommend collaborating with Arjan!

I experienced the contact with Jelle and Arjan as very pleasant and personal. They were very flexible regarding (last minute) viewings and managed to ask the right questions about the house that I myself would not have thought of so quickly. A nice, professional guidance when buying a home!

I highly recommend Alliances Makelaardij to everybody who wants to sell, buy or rent a property. I experienced a great service and communication. Jelle and Arjan are always on the top with market knowledge and with positive approach make each of the transaction smooth and stressless.

I was looking for a rental property in Utrecht for two weeks, then I made an appointment with them. And after another week I'm in my new house. Keep up the good work. Thanks Arjan.

My husband in NL! Fifteen years ago, when I left NL to go work in Canada, I thought it was just for a short while. I was wrong! Renting out my apartment in Utrecht and arranging all the real estate matters was undoubtedly a challenge when I was away, until I found the realtor of peace of mind: Jelle van Tricht! You can expect enormous expertise and dedication from him. He has helped me several times with finding suitable tenants, with the renovations I wanted to have done, and even with moving my belongings. A realtor that I wholeheartedly recommend.

Jelle, the realtor, has helped me enormously with all the procedures to finally be able to buy a house here in Utrecht. Great person! I can wholeheartedly recommend him.

I was recently looking for a rental property and ended up with Alliances Real Estate Agency, because I had previously worked with them and was very satisfied with the service. I can happily say that the service was once again excellent and very professional.

This office has been incredibly helpful and friendly from the beginning. I reacted too late to a bid, but Arjan still had a great attitude. He didn't make any promises, but was very involved in our search. Very refreshing in this crazy market.

Aside from Jelle's usual responsibilities, he dropped everything to bring me a spare key when I locked myself out. Without his quick reaction to the situation, I would have missed my bus to Brussels on the same day, and that all on a Sunday!

In November 2020, we moved from India to the Netherlands due to work. It was a peak period of COVID and it was very difficult to find a nice apartment near Utrecht. That time we came across 'Alliances Makelaardij', where we met Jelle. He is friendly, approachable and responds very quickly to all your questions. We had a great time in the apartment on Vosmaerstraat. The communication went super easily and quickly, and the property looks exactly as it does in the photos. Even during the COVID period, Jelle arranged everything for the house. Our check-out also went smoothly and he arranged the final cleaning so that everything was back in good condition for the new tenant. I can wholeheartedly recommend 'Alliances Makelaardij' if you are looking for a nice rental apartment in Utrecht.

Jelle and Arjan understand their craft well, very satisfied 👍.

We received excellent service and support from Alliances Makelaardij during our search for a rental property. We jointly developed the specifications and within two weeks they came up with an opportunity that perfectly matched our wishes. After we had found the right property for us, they also supported us excellently during the contract and handover period. Despite the ignorant behavior of most real estate agents in Utrecht, the team at Alliances Makelaardij delivered excellent work with their entrepreneurial spirit, professional process management, and very friendly approach. I highly recommend collaborating with them if you want everything to be handled smoothly and on time, and that you are regularly kept informed. Sincerely, Arjan and Jelle.

We have chosen Jelle as the real estate agent to sell our house. We have no regrets about this. Together with Arjan, the process has been guided very professionally and enthusiastically from beginning to end. They pay attention to detail, are always accessible, keep appointments, and ultimately deliver a custom product. Selling your house is a major event in your life. In addition to receiving a great price, we feel very good about it. Jelle and Arjan have fully lived up to what they had outlined beforehand.

Everything is perfectly arranged by these gentlemen! Quick handling and good service!

You will not get your deposit back. The worst experience!

Jelle is always very friendly and helpful but also a broker who thinks along with you, for example about the presentation of the property. He helped with furnishing it with new fresh furniture and plants so that it seemed more cozy and spacious for the viewings. Jelle even had a broom with him to sweep the street briefly on the first day before rolling out the red carpet, which we received many positive reactions to afterwards. During the viewings, there were two brokers present so that everyone had enough time to get a good impression of the property and make a good offer. There was a lot of response and bids for my house on Bekkerstraat in Utrecht, which made me very happy with the selling price and the new buyers.

Last December, I came to the Netherlands with my children for the first time. He helped me find a good house to rent. Whenever I ran into problems, he always helped me solve them quickly. Four months later, I contacted him again to see if he could help me buy a house. I viewed a total of 8 houses and eventually bought the house I wanted. Now I am in my new home and enjoy it every day. By the way, this year was during the epidemic, public transport was not allowed and I didn't have a car at the time. Almost every time I looked at a house, he was very enthusiastic about helping me to transport my products. I sell electric bicycle batteries and accessories in the Netherlands. In short, he is a very reliable real estate agent for buying and renting houses. He always thinks of his clients and is a good Dutch friend who can really help us.

I can recommend Jelle to everyone for the sale/purchase of a home. He helped me fantastically and guided me very well through the sale of my house in Zuilen. It was sold within a week! In the further process, he remained involved and informed me carefully and on time. Moreover, he is easily accessible and quick. I find his way of working professional and human. And not unimportant: he achieved a great beautiful sales result!

A very helpful and reliable real estate agent. Our house had to be rented last-minute and Alliances Makelaardij did everything they could to make it happen, and they succeeded! In addition, clear communication and a very neat handling. Definitely recommended!
