Stap Makelaars

Recently, I sold my apartment in Utrecht through Stap real estate agents. I am very pleased with the service of Martijn. He is businesslike and comes across as professional, but also has a personal and friendly approach. Which, in my opinion, is a good combination of what a real estate agent should be. The communication was very pleasant and he was always readily available. He greatly relieved me of stress during the sales process. Martijn, thank you!

Martijn guided us incredibly well through the sale of our house in Utrecht. We are very satisfied with the communication, his advice and the final sale. Thank you so much!

Very skilled. Extremely pleasant to deal with. Honest and reliable. Martijn will guide you through the entire process. Questions are almost always answered immediately. If you're going to buy or sell a house, this is the real estate agent you should hire.

After trying to buy a house independently in Utrecht for a while, we came to the conclusion that it wouldn't be possible without a buyer's agent. Martijn helped us excellently and we had a house within no time!

Martijn expertly guided us through the purchase of our first home. He was always available for advice and the communication was pleasant. We would definitely hire him again in a similar situation. Highly recommended!

Martijn is a real estate agent who understands his craft. He is very pleasant to deal with, there are no barriers. He is clear in his communication and not afraid to be critical. He actually adds value to the - in my case - sales process (of my house). A committed real estate agent, ready for you!

I had a great experience with Martijn. I got the apartment on the first attempt and the bid ultimately came very close to the estimated price. And I hardly had to be involved, because Martijn arranged everything for me. Really great work!

I had a great experience with Martijn. I got the apartment on the first try, and the bid ended up being very close to the appraised price. And I hardly needed to be involved in the process, as Martijn handled everything for me. Really great job!

When we wanted to sell our house, we had a number of estate agents come by. With Martijn, there was an immediate good connection. He made a good realistic assessment of the selling price of our house and was allowed to start. The contact during the sales period went very well. We could go to him with all our questions and he always responded quickly and was clear in his communication. We would definitely recommend Martijn as a selling estate agent!

With Martijn, there was an immediate good connection; he was expert and helpful. I definitely recommend him as a sales broker.

After conversations with various brokers, we ended up with Martijn. He gave us the best feeling as a broker. He seemed very skilled and professional, and he was affordable. The viewings came quickly, and Martijn was available 24/7 to show potential buyers around. His feedback was always within a few hours, allowing us to switch gears quickly. Our apartment sold quickly. Nothing but good experiences.

Martijn was always accessible to us, always had an answer to our questions, accompanied us on viewings and gave honest and critical advice. Even when we ourselves were enthusiastic about a property, Martijn pointed out all aspects that we needed to consider so that we could make a well-considered choice. Searching for and purchasing a house went much more smoothly thanks to Martijn.

Martijn helped me enormously with the sale of my house. Because of my summer vacation, everything had to happen within a very short timeframe and Martijn made every effort to make it all possible. Martijn provided a very personal and professional approach towards both myself and (potential) buyers. His advice on the selling price was spot-on and higher than expected. And that was completely confirmed. Also, his assessment of the (potential) buyers proved to be correct. I would definitely recommend Martijn!

What began with a viewing where Martijn was the sales broker, ended a number of months later with buying a house with Martijn's help. Martijn fantastically guided us in finding our house. We have been searching for about six months in Utrecht. Of course you also always need some luck, but we noticed with every bid that Martijn’s predictions were correct. The contact was pleasant and there was always very quick reaction. Thank you Martijn!

Martijn guided us from beginning to end during the sale of our house. He is knowledgeable, gives honest advice and communicates well and quickly. We had a difficult situation because we were at a distance, but Martijn was very flexible in this and took over where needed.

No nonsense, knowledge of the subject matter, motivated, helpful. Martijn van Stap Makelaars, the man with a plan, sold my apartment within 2 weeks for a good price at a competitive rate. Recommendation without reservation!

Very pleasant and effective collaboration to sell our first house. We were taken through the process step by step, which made everything much clearer. Martijn takes the time for you, listens to your wishes and paints a realistic picture of what to expect. Highly recommended!

Martijn is very skilled in his profession, always accessible and takes good time to prepare things. Helped me excellently in the sale of my house.

Of the three brokers we spoke to beforehand, we chose Martijn. Not a minute of regret about that. He is very skilled in his profession. Is always accessible and takes good time to prepare things. He helped us excellently in finding our dream house.

What began with a viewing where Martijn was the sales broker, ended a number of months later with buying a house with Martijn's help. Martijn fantastically guided us in finding our house. We have been searching for about half a year in Utrecht. Of course you also always need some luck, but we noticed with every bid that Martijn’s predictions were correct.

Personally, pleasant and honest. Clarity about the price. Extensive experience and honesty regarding sales expectations and the uncertain market at that time. Accessible in communication; even for questions outside of the agreement, we could contact him. Practically speaking, he works digitally in a pleasant and clear way. We recommend Stap Makelaars.

Proactive, expert advice and very attentive assistance with the sale of the apartment.

Very satisfied with the collaboration with Martijn when selling my apartment. Everything went very smoothly from beginning to end. Martijn provides clear information about the sales process and guides you well through it. The 5 stars are definitely deserved!

Martijn is a very pleasant real estate agent. From the first contact, I felt relaxed with him; he is professional but also friendly, has a sense of humor and is patient. He guided me well in the sale of my house, and that's why I have also engaged him as a buyer's agent in my search for a new place. That’s going very smoothly so far - he takes his time with this process and critically assesses whether something is a good deal for me. As a single millennial who does a little bit of everything :), it's nice to have someone look over things with such expertise.

Martijn has helped us wonderfully. He understands the urgency of the steps involved in buying a house. He is willing to put in extra effort if requested. All in all, a very pleasant collaboration.

I am more than satisfied with Martijn van Welzenes and Stap Makelaars. It really exceeded my expectations. So helpful, informative, easy/actually always available, collaborative and expert. He kept me informed of all the steps, listened well to my wishes and honored all appointments. I couldn't have wished for anything else.

I am particularly pleased with the way Martijn van Welzenes guides me in the sale of my own house and the purchase of a new house. Martijn responds quickly and asks the right questions during viewings (3) which allows me to quickly reach a decision: do I want to buy this house or not.

Beware! Do not enter into a contract with this broker. His way of communicating is very pushy and only focused on his own interest. He assessed our house very low and then asks for a bonus for every amount that is bid over. In addition, I could not reach him via mobile number but refers you to a 'secretary' who always states he is unavailable. Please be warned about Martijn!

Martijn from Stap Makelaars guided me through the process of selling my house in a very pleasant way. Especially during moments when I felt nervous, he brought market knowledge and trust & confidence in his communication style. Together we chose the best sales strategy in a volatile market with a beautiful result. I am super happy that I chose Martijn and definitely recommend him!

Martijn helped me very well with the purchase of my house. The contact was good. Always easy to reach and responds quickly. I was a first-time homebuyer, and as a starter, a lot comes at you when buying your first house. Martijn guided me well through this entire process. From discussing my housing wishes, the viewings, the bidding process, and all the paperwork involved. I experienced Martijn's expertise and guidance as very pleasant during this whole process. Therefore, I would also recommend engaging Martijn for the purchase of a house!

Working with Martijn was very pleasant; he always communicated very quickly and kindly. When selling our house, a very important point for us was that it's not just about the money, but also that you can assess buyers properly, not only by the thickness of their wallet. Martijn helped us greatly with this as well.

Martijn is a very reliable professional real estate agent. He comes across as businesslike and can also convey everything in a businesslike and professional manner. It is what it is, nothing more and nothing less. Martijn will do everything for you to get the best deal. I am very satisfied with the services and service of Martijn.

We engaged Martijn as a sales broker. We were left with a good feeling from start to finish of the sale. Martijn is professional, clear in communication and keeps you well informed about everything.

I have experienced Martijn as a very pleasant real estate agent. He is clear in his communication, professional and extremely honest. His explanation of the sales process was very clear from the beginning, he also takes the time for that.

I asked Martijn to appraise my property and I am very satisfied with his services. Reliable, thorough and fast. Truly leaves nothing to be desired.

We are very pleased with how Martijn helped us find a house. Martijn is expert, sharp and also just a friendly and accessible real estate agent who arranges the best price for you. He also ensured that we now bought a house below the asking price.

Excellent service with expertise. Martijn is a reliable real estate agent who guided and advised us throughout the entire process of selling our home. We have experienced Van Welzenes Makelaars as a very customer-oriented, informative and service-providing agency.

We hired Martijn as a sales broker and haven't regretted our decision for even a second. He has a pleasant, down-to-earth way of communicating and is very helpful. He gave good advice, alleviated concerns, and accurately assessed the value of the property. Thanks to his clever sales strategy, we were able to sell the house for a very good price. We wholeheartedly recommend hiring Martijn as a sales broker!

Martijn is a very pleasant man to work with. He is easily accessible, both by email and by phone, and he helped us greatly. His assessment of the value of the house ultimately proved to be exactly in line with the appraisal value. He guided us well on what needed to be arranged and every question was answered promptly. The process went smoothly with Martijn. Thank you!

My experience with Martijn as an appraiser was very positive. A clear explanation, the appraisal was quickly scheduled, and the communication with the selling broker and me was very good. I can highly recommend Martijn!

The guidance from Martijn regarding the sale of my house was very skilled. Martijn is easily accessible, punctual and clear. I would definitely recommend inquiring with Martijn about his services when you want to sell your property.

Martijn guides and advises you throughout the sales process from quotation to handover. He does this in a very pleasant and friendly manner. He is professional, clear, and knows what he's talking about. I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend Martijn for the sale of your home. You won’t regret it.

Contact with Martijn went very well from the start. His initial assessment of the value of my apartment was, looking back, also the best of the four real estate agents I had come for a quote. Martijn guided me well through the entire process. He is a friendly, accessible and professional realtor that I can recommend to everyone. In addition, I appreciate the fixed rate he works with.

Honest and open advice from multiple perspectives, well informed throughout the process, objective and honest with more than sufficient knowledge of the subject matter.

Nothing but extremely satisfied with Martijn! If you have to choose from the dozens of real estate agents in the Utrecht region, I definitely recommend Welzenes real estate agents. Open, clear and honest communication. Easily accessible and super helpful throughout the entire sales process.

I engaged Martijn as both a purchase and sales broker. I am very satisfied with both. Martijn is honest and clear, with the right dose of humor. Some difficulties arose during the sales process with the vve (homeowners association). Martijn was extremely helpful in this regard and relieved a lot of stress for me. Even after the purchase and transfer of my new home, Martijn remained readily accessible and willing to help me. I have already recommended Welzenes makelaars to friends, and will certainly continue to do so!

It's very pleasant to work with Martijn. The agreements made from the beginning he has kept. What is really pleasant to work with is that a lot of attention is paid to good and clear communication. Also, the market knowledge and assessment are very good. I would gladly recommend Martijn as a selling real estate agent!

We sold our apartment through Van Welzenes Makelaars and can recommend them to everyone! Van Welzenes Makelaars was the only real estate agent for us who had a sales strategy and substantiated and clearly explained his choices in that regard, which was not the case with other agents. Martijn from Van Welzenes Makelaars also came across as expert, calm and non-pushy, clearly explained every step involved with his role and is transparent about the costs. We knew exactly what to expect from him and what he expected from us with the sale in this way. In the subsequent process, he was very involved, quick to respond and kept us well informed of all developments. Furthermore, we must also give compliments about his choice of photographer. Really beautiful photos of our apartment were taken, which is certainly an important part of the sale. Thanks in part to all of this, the apartment sold in 1 day, above the asking price! Until and after the notary, we could turn to Martijn with any questions. In short, for us, Martijn is now the real estate agent for selling the house.

Fast, expert and reliable. Can't say otherwise.

So far, good experiences with Van Welzenes real estate agent in the sale of our house. Transparent and involved, which is experienced as very valuable.

Nice to meet van Welzenes. First impression was immediately good, transparent about costs and creates a realistic timeline and expectations. Absolutely no pushover, or other kind of rogue with antics but an honest broker. During the process, easy/fast direct contact and consultation which is very pleasant when dealing with such large amounts. Recommended not only because of the rate (competitive) but definitely also because of the service and accessibility/speed! Our apartment was on Funda in no-time and sold within no-time.

We initially wanted to sell our house ourselves, but after Martijn came by, we decided to appoint him as a selling agent. Absolutely no regrets about that. He is super helpful, easily accessible (even in the evenings and on weekends), and thanks to his good market knowledge, we sold our house above the asking price and with a significant profit! We never would have achieved this ourselves.

Based on the initial phone contact, I would definitely not recommend working with this agency. The person who spoke on the phone was rude for a situation that could have been communicated politely and displayed signs of a 'superior' attitude. It's better to stay away.

Very pleasant collaboration with Martijn van Welzenes, from the beginning it was clearly explained that he would take on the entire process and not leave parts to the seller. Based on his advice based on experience in Utrecht, our apartment was sold within 4 weeks. Very pleasant collaboration, short lines and every evening after viewings a clear email with feedback about potential buyers. Viewings were clearly communicated in advance, good photographer to show the house neatly and clearly on funda, very satisfied with the service provided and the speed of response, in short a pleasant collaboration with results.

Martijn is first and foremost a very pleasant person. Someone I would personally like to encounter when purchasing a home. He was always directly accessible and available for questions during the sale of our apartment. Always called back within an hour if he couldn't answer immediately. A great advantage is that he immediately knows which property it concerns because he knows all the buildings himself. With a large office, there is more risk of 'can someone quickly do a viewing at Dorpstraat..?' Martijn was personally present with us - at every step in the entire process. Really went the extra mile. Works with an excellent photographer. Very beautiful photos. I would recommend this real estate agent to everyone because he simply delivers good work at competitive rates. Our property was sold within a few weeks as we hoped. As he himself said; 'I don't have a crystal ball but....'. Well, he certainly has a very sharp eye, good knowledge of the market and is above all a very kind, pleasant guy who you can fully trust and build (upon) with.

If you have another option, I strongly advise you to stay away from this real estate agency. The owner is absolutely not reliable and his knowledge about the house he is trying to sell is limited. He doesn't know basic facts about the house, such as the ceiling height and the periodic payment (VVE). He has a very irritating way of speaking, as if he considers himself superior to you. He acts as if you should be making an offer on the house. I actually wanted to make an offer on the house, but after his behavior, I decided not to do so. This is the worst real estate agency in the Netherlands that I have ever seen.

Last week I sold my house in the Vogelenbuurt neighborhood through Van Welzenes. I am particularly pleased with the service I received from Martijn van Welzenes, especially because I live abroad and was unable to be present myself to prepare the house for sale or attend the viewings. Martijn was always reachable via email or Skype, happy to visit again to ensure everything was in order, and full of helpful tips to make the sale possible. Ultimately, I was able to sell the house for above the asking price. I can wholeheartedly recommend Van Welzenes Makelaars.

Martijn is a skilled real estate agent and helped us well with the sale of our apartment. As a person, he is very pleasant to communicate with, thorough, reliable and honest. Aspects that we found very important for the sale of our home; we wanted representative and professional representation, no real estate agent with 'hot air stories'. Very accessible and keeps all appointments neatly. We received clear feedback from all viewings and regularly had consultations about the strategy to be followed in the sales (and later negotiation-) process. And all this at a good all-in rate. Martijn, thank you!

From the very first moment during our introduction, Martijn from Van Welzenes real estate gave us both a very pleasant feeling. He seemed extremely knowledgeable and took all the time he needed. He clearly explained which steps had to be taken and what his role would be in that. In the further process, he was very involved, communicated very strongly, always kept us informed, and reliably fulfilled his appointments. Thanks in part to his actions, he managed to sell the house in 1 month and 1 day, ideal! Also during the negotiation process, we were always well-informed, and the communication was clear and fast. In the process after the negotiation, Martijn knew exactly what needed to be considered, from the very first moment until the notary; we could go to Martijn with all our questions. In short, would I recommend Martijn to others? Without a doubt, a well-deserved YES, certainly!

Dear people, I too have a particularly unpleasant aftertaste regarding the office of Welzenes Real Estate. Due to the death of my mother, the house had to be sold. Martijn from Welzenes initially seemed sympathetic, but appearances can be deceiving. After paying € 1000,-- for the start-up costs, my mother's property in Utrecht could be put on sale. Once the property was listed on funda, it became deathly silent. Dead silent. I heard nothing more. After three months, I decided to call myself and then he knew nothing about the property for sale. Strange!!! After waiting a few minutes, he returned with a story about a poorly performing market and that he also has to wait for that one phone call. I said: 'have you done anything else'? No, what am I supposed to do? Well, you fill it in yourselves, dear people. Is he the real estate agent or am I? Subsequently, I withdrew the assignment and had to pay € 2500,--. For what? I had already paid € 1000,--!. When I refused to pay, I had a bailiff on my roof within NO TIME. Then the real estate agent Martijn from Welzenes suddenly became proactive. No, a bad realtor with a bad attitude. Mvg Patrick van Doorn

Bad news regarding this brokerage firm. In short, the owner with the same name, Martijn van Welzenes, does not honor his appointments and is particularly unreliable. Save yourself this misery and choose another office instead of Van Welzenes Makelaardij. Sincerely, Liesbeth Beukhoven from Utrecht
