The entire process ran smoothly and professionally, and thanks to his dedication the sale went super quickly! Toni works with attention, knowledge and genuine involvement.

Great experience with River Makelaardij. Received very good assistance from Eric Warmerdam when purchasing an apartment. He is very skilled, provides good advice and has a lot of knowledge. River real estate agency is always easily accessible for questions and/or consultation, even outside office hours if needed. In short, I definitely recommend River Makelaardij.

I made a targeted purchase with the help of River Makelaardij. They have been incredibly helpful in every step of the process. Before the viewing, the real estate agent had already done extensive research and paid close attention to the condition of the house. This allowed me to make a well-considered offer. In addition to their expertise, they are also very friendly and helpful.

What a waste of time! They invite you to viewings and ask you to make an offer, even though they already have a future tenant lined up. I will never respond to their apartments again - I just wasted an entire week looking for a place where I never really stood a chance!

Outstanding guidance and successful completion despite challenges We were guided throughout the entire sales process by Alana Balk and Toni Bosman from River Real Estate B.V. – and we could not have wished for better support. Despite difficult circumstances due to a construction issue, they always stood by us with advice and action. Their open communication, dedication, and calm approach helped us immensely to maintain our composure even in tough moments. Thanks to their experience and commitment, the apartment was successfully sold. We are very grateful for the collaboration and warmly recommend River Real Estate.

For the sale of our apartment in de Rivierenbuurt, we chose River Makelaardij, partly because they are well acquainted with this neighborhood. The proposed sales strategy immediately appealed to us and realtor Alana Balk came across as both pleasant and professional during the initial contact. Throughout the entire sales process, communication with Alana was excellent. She was always easily accessible, to the point, and provided expert advice that we were able to follow without any problems. Her colleagues in the office, especially Eline and Ties, were also easily accessible and responded quickly and adequately. Alana engaged a stylist and a photographer who, together with us, ensured a beautiful presentation of the apartment on Funda. Despite the housing stock in our price range increasing rapidly in March 2025, our apartment was sold within a reasonable timeframe (delivery on July 14, 2025), in accordance with expectations, with Alana as an involved and reliable guide. We can wholeheartedly recommend River Makelaardij. The team is experienced, expert, and knows how to guide their clients in a pleasant, non-pushy way.

Cavan's service was really excellent! I recently moved from Japan to Amsterdam and Cavan has supported me from start to finish - from finding suitable accommodations, arranging viewings, negotiating, preparing documents and even helping with utilities and internet installation. What impressed me most is that he had already prepared everything before I arrived in Amsterdam, so that on the day of arrival I could move directly into the apartment. He arranged the keys, cleaning, repairs and all necessary preparations perfectly, so that after a long flight I could start my new life without stress or confusion. He always reacts extremely quickly, explains everything clearly and always does more than is needed. The apartment he found for me is also very comfortable and I am very happy with my new home. Finding an apartment in Amsterdam is known to be extremely difficult, especially for people coming from abroad, but thanks to Cavan the whole process went smoothly and worry-free. I greatly appreciate his professionalism, friendliness and sincere dedication. I wholeheartedly recommend Cavan to everyone looking for a place in Amsterdam. Thank you very much for everything! Koki

Our move to Haarlem would not have succeeded without the team at Housingnet. Boaz helped us from start to finish to ensure that we found a home that met our requirements. These expectations were not only met, but even exceeded. Boaz worked tirelessly and was available for us every day, not only in finding a home, but also in helping with all the paperwork and advice during the move. This took away a lot of stress from us when we moved from Ireland. I can't recommend or thank Housingnet enough for their expert service.

I advise against buying a house through Nieuw Amsterdam Huys, as we are not satisfied with the guidance they provided us as expats throughout the entire process. They misled us when we (simply) heavily relied on them for identifying issues with the apartments, due diligence, bidding advice, and securing the best deal possible. Buying a home is one of the most important financial and emotional decisions that is already stressful in the overheated market. Therefore, it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT to have a good and reliable real estate agent. I understand that we also made mistakes due to lack of understanding in a new country and blindly trusted the agent. But I hope no one else makes the same mistake as us.

I would stay far away from them if you are looking for an honest, competent and reliable purchasing agent, especially if you are an expat. They do the absolute minimum and take advantage of your lack of local market knowledge to earn their hefty commission as quickly as possible. Their only strategy is to get their clients to bid as high as possible, regardless of the actual market value of the house. 7 months ago we bought an apartment in Amsterdam with Joris as our agent. We are only writing this review now because we have since realized many things and now have knowledge about factors that influence property values in the Netherlands, and also because we initially wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. We can say that we absolutely regret our decision to work with Joris due to: 1. He did not provide a single relevant advertisement during the entire search process, nor early access. Worse still, they kept suggesting houses that clearly didn't meet our criteria and were far from our preferred areas. 2. We would advise ourselves to bid on properties despite obvious problems and significant overbidding. All other properties were, according to them, 'very nice'. Note that we weren’t in a hurry and made this clear from the beginning. 3. They did not explain how they arrived at a suggestive offer and how leasehold status, energy labels, renovations, etc. were taken into account in the recommended offer. 4. After we won the bid, there was obvious haste on Joris’s part to close the deal. The building inspection was scheduled for the day we would be going on vacation for two weeks, we could hardly be present, and Joris wasn't either, and many critical issues were missed due to being in poor condition. Things that have cost us a lot of money to repair later. 5. No negotiation was suggested or attempted, not even after a building inspection where several problems had been addressed. We didn’t know if that was even possible; but good agents do it. 6. Poor assessment and review of documents (such as the MJOP). At the last minute, it turned out that the VVE reserve fund was only a quarter of the originally stated amount, and not sufficient to cover the planned maintenance and repairs. I was able to see this and understand it (although somewhat late), despite having just moved to the country. It proves they are not competent enough. 7. Most of our concerns were dismissed with typical sales pitches - concerns such as the disadvantages of a large VVE with one social housing association owning most of the apartments, and its impact on the value/demand of the apartments. 8. All our doubts and worries were confirmed by the bid book (after the sale was closed) - hardly any bids, while ours were significantly higher than the second-highest bid and so far the highest m2 price for a comparable apartment in our neighborhood. Our excessive reliance on an agent was our fault, we accept that, but worse were Joris’s repeated sales pitches, with the worst being: 'your offer will only lead to further price increases in this area, so you don't need to worry'; 'you would have thrown that extra money away on rent anyway' and 'many bids come in via email and phone and do not end up in the bid book'. So we unwittingly and unintentionally contributed further to this housing crisis, which we absolutely do not feel comfortable with. These are exactly the kind of agents you should avoid and people warn against. I have written this long and detailed review so that no one has to endure this bitter and stressful experience when buying their first home, like we did. Please invest your money in a more competent agent (if it’s really necessary) who puts his client's interests first. Most of the good reviews on Google seem dubious, and that also applies to a sales agent, which given the housing crisis is probably the easiest job in Amsterdam.

Positive experience with Joris from Nieuw Amsterdam Huys as a buyer's agent! Found an apartment within three months that met my search criteria.

Dishonest, disrespectful and unprofessional agency. Their business plan revolves around scamming expats. 1/5 is far too generous for them.

With Joris as my purchasing agent, I found a beautiful apartment in the Jordaan. He accompanied me to almost every viewing and was always easily accessible, even outside of working hours. His honesty, expertise, and friendly approach made the entire process very pleasant. I am incredibly happy with his help and can recommend him to everyone!

Great. Communication, knowledge, practical, decisive problem solving. Highly recommended! I am happy to respond to questions, because as Nieuw Amsterdams Huys all real estate agents should be. Also perfect for expats, my wife was also very satisfied, reassured, and informed at a good level, not too much information but the right information. And our house was sold for the highest price ever in our apartment complex. And all that for not even such a high price. Even the cheapest of the 3 agents we consulted with. Thanks for everything Bas!

We are pleased with the service that Nieuw Amsterdam House provided during the sale of our beautiful apartment. We were immediately impressed by the professionalism and personal approach. Bas advised us well on the sales strategy and the right price proposal, which resulted in a quick sale of our house at a good price. The entire process went very smoothly and clearly. We were kept well informed of the progress, and we could always count on a quick response to questions. Thanks to Nieuw Amsterdam House, the sale was not only fast but also absolutely worry-free!

Na een zoektocht van 1,5 jaar, met talloze bezichtigingen die het nét niet waren en mooie woningen waar we telkens werden overboden, vonden we via Funda ons droomhuis. We wisten meteen dat we iemand nodig hadden om ons hierbij te helpen. En wat een geweldige beslissing was dat! Bas is buitengewoon betrokken en beschikt over een schat aan kennis en ervaring. Hij lette op details waar wij overheen keken, gaf uitstekend advies tijdens de onderhandelingen en begeleidde ons vanaf de eerste kennismaking tot de sleuteloverdracht op een manier die zowel professioneel als persoonlijk was. Bovendien was Bas altijd goed bereikbaar, wat ons veel rust gaf in een toch vaak stressvol proces. Dankzij zijn inzet wonen wij nu in het mooiste huis van Amsterdam – iets wat zonder Bas absoluut niet gelukt was. Wij kunnen hem van harte aanbevelen aan iedereen die op zoek is naar een makelaar die écht het verschil maakt. Dank je wel, Bas en het hele team van Nieuw Amsterdams Huys
