We were super well and correctly assisted and good procedures during the purchase of our new apartment. Excellent mortgage advice. Friendly and alert internal staff. Our purchasing agent is a top performer and gave excellent advice not to overbid. We highly recommend Makelaar Zaandam-Bert van Vulpen.

Had a good viewing, excellent guidance.

Very good experience with real estate agency Bert van Vulpen. Sabine Denkers is a very involved agent who is not averse to thinking along (in our considerations regarding the purchase of another house) and offering help despite that…

Nice contact. Very professional real estate agent. Good guidance and information during the process. Recommended.

The contact with the real estate agent was very good. There was great personal involvement, we were well guided during the process, clear agreements were made and followed up on, and local market knowledge was excellent. Communication lines were short and quick action could be taken. Definitely recommended, also in this region!

I had a fantastic experience selling my house in Zaandam through Bert van Vulpen. Hanoch contacted me during the first week of June. By the end of June, the house was listed on Move.nl and it was sold on September 19th, including notarial registration. It went very quickly. Mirte, Imani and the other team members were also very helpful. Thanks to the entire team.

Buying our first home seemed like a daunting journey, but thanks to this amazing team, it turned out to be smooth and stress-free. The entire team guided us every step of the way with clear, excellent communication, making the process fast and easy. We are so grateful for their support and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring real estate agency!

I am very pleased with the collaboration with Bert van Vulpen real estate agents; they have a reliable team. Heartfelt thanks to Angela for all the help!

As first-time homebuyers, we were not very familiar with the process of searching for and buying a house. The team from Bert van Vulpen Makelaars + Hypotheken ensured that everything went smoothly and understandably. They guided us through every step, from finding the right property to handling the mortgage application, and always explained everything clearly. The team responded quickly, was professional and very friendly, which gave us confidence throughout the entire process. We are very grateful for their support and would highly recommend them.

As a first time buyer, I feel very pleasant and comfortable working with Bert van Vulpen real estate agents. The purchase agents were always there to answer my questions, and I learned a lot from them along the way of finding my first home.

It was a very pleasant collaboration. Easy to reach when you had questions. Always asked for permission if something needed to happen.

Very well organized and also fun, cozy. We could find everything we needed and nothing was too much. Top notch!

Marie-Pierre was fantastic and incredibly helpful throughout our entire house hunt. She was patient, knowledgeable, and always went the extra mile to ensure we found the perfect place. We are extremely happy with our experience and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a new home!

Great experience, very professional and timely support with all matters related to moving to a new country: finding a new place, recommendations for doctors and other local details. Special care and attention guaranteed!

We hired Urban Homies to sell our property in Amsterdam and we can't be happier. Since day one, they were on top of things and always helping quickly with any questions we had. Gaby was our contact person and we really connected with him and still think that he was able to maximize the selling. We will definitely recommend them if anyone is looking for a realtor.

Great experience with Urban Homies! Smooth, fast and pleasant!

We had a fantastic experience with Urban Homies. They ensured that navigating the challenging housing market went smoothly and positively. The team is incredibly professional, helpful, and genuinely cares about their clients. The beautiful gift we received months later for our housewarming was a thoughtful surprise and a perfect example of their great service. We wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a home. Thank you!

We have had very good contact, easy to reach. Negotiated decisively. Also delivered excellent service as a rental agent.

Carina and Marie-Pierre were incredibly pleasant to work with. The Amsterdam rental market is super competitive, but they guided us clearly and carefully through every step. We moved from abroad and their communication was always fast, clear, and reassuring. They really understood our taste and helped us find the perfect apartment on the Amstel with a garden, exactly what we had hoped for. Highly recommend!

direct, personal and fast

They have maintained the premises well and the staff is professional and friendly. I am very satisfied so far.

Great service and reliable! We rented a house through Urban Homies and are super satisfied! Friendly and professional team, fast communication and a smooth rental process. They really thought along with us and found the perfect home. Absolutely recommended!

Thank you for the support and advice provided! Pleasant office and neat service.

As a landlord, I have always had good contact with Yael and her team; the tenants have always been well-selected and never caused problems. Now, as a sales broker, I am very satisfied with their commitment.

Very professional. Beautiful result with the sale of the house. Highly recommended!

I had a fantastic experience with Urban Homies! A friendly and empathetic team with all the knowledge you could wish for. They are really involved in your personal situation and take the time to help you as best as possible. Professional, reliable and fast, always willing to help. My experience with Gaby Mock was particularly good - he was efficient, resourceful and therefore very goal-oriented. You really feel that they care about you and want the best result for you. I can wholeheartedly recommend Urban Homies for both rental and sale!

A dedicated and professional team that is always ready for their customers. Pleasant to work with!

One of our preferred partners. Great apartment. Great agents. Always a pleasure to work with!

I am extremely satisfied with the sale of my apartment by Koops Makelaardij. From the first moment, I felt in good hands. They have excellent knowledge of the Amsterdam housing market and gave me good advice on the best sales strategy. What I particularly appreciated were the short lines via telephone, whatsapp or email. Due to these short lines, the sales process proceeded very smoothly and transparently. In addition, I was very impressed with the professional presentation of my apartment. The video, photos, and sales text were of high quality and gave a good picture of the property. This certainly also contributed to the quick sale. In short, I can wholeheartedly recommend Koops Makelaardij to anyone who wants to sell their home.

Great experience with Jasper as a real estate agent. Always very professional and pleasant to communicate with! Highly recommend Koops Makelaardij and Jasper as a trusted party.

Great advice and service!

My property rented out in no time through Koops, tenant and landlord happy. Good, clear & efficient service.

We had a great experience with Jasper. He was friendly and responded quickly to all our questions. He made the stressful process of finding an apartment in Amsterdam enjoyable and supported us every step of the way. I can wholeheartedly recommend him and Koops Makelaardij if you want to rent an apartment in Amsterdam.

I had a great experience with Koops Makelaardij! Very professional and efficient when it comes to finding a rental property. Jasper was very professional from the beginning of the process and also very supportive with a great and friendly attitude! In short, a great experience!

Great experience with Koops and our realtor Yannick. As expats, it was very helpful to receive excellent support not only in renting out our house, but also in understanding all the details and nuances of Dutch legislation and procedures. We are very happy that we chose Koops and we would recommend it to anyone who is renting out their home.

My personal experience is very bad and I will not recommend them personally. In my case, we found their approach inappropriate when we contested that they charged us a substantial amount upon check-out without any discussion or agreement with us, stating the reason for the house not being clean. However, no such important remark was made during the check-out inspection. The house was thoroughly cleaned. Upon check-in, they sent an inspection report stating that everything was clean. However, there were many places where it wasn't clean and we mentioned this in the check-in report, but we felt that this was not taken into account at check-out. At check-out, our deposit was not refunded within a month. Ultimately, after multiple reminders when it was eventually refunded, high cleaning costs were charged, while in our opinion the house was sufficiently clean and handed over cleaner than upon check-in. When we pointed out that the check-in report mentioned that the house wasn't completely clean, this was not taken into account. We felt terrible about the experience and felt it didn’t add up. I certainly will not recommend them.

Personally a very bad experience and absolutely recommended. They charged us a hefty cleaning fee at check-out, while in our opinion the house was thoroughly cleaned. It wasn't transparent and there were no discussions or agreements made with us about it. The deposit was refunded after the agreed term of one month, after deduction of a high charge. That came as a big shock to us, because there were no significant remarks about the cleanliness of the house at check-out. Moreover, upon check-in we mentioned several points about the fact that the house was not thoroughly cleaned, which were not taken into account at check-out. My experience was extremely bad; we found the behavior of their employees inappropriate, unprofessional and non-transparent. Let's say: be careful and definitely never do this again.

I was quite in a hurry to rent out my apartment. I had already been talking with another real estate agent, but unfortunately, he didn't call back each time, so I called Koops Makelaardij because of a tip from my neighbor. She was right that it could go very quickly. Within 2 weeks, I had an introductory meeting, the photographer came, it was online, there were viewings, and I had a very suitable tenant. Thank you for the smooth process of everything; everything went very professionally, both towards me and towards my tenant, and I think everyone is content now. Thanks Jasper!

Very good experience with Koops Real Estate Agency. An initial conversation with Amber, who unfortunately found another challenge. At least, we thought we would find this a pity...but her successor Jasper exceeded our expectations. Jasper proactively thinks along, gives good and well-supported advice and responds very quickly to every possible question. In this way, we were completely relieved of worries. Based on our experiences, we can wholeheartedly recommend Jasper and Koops Real Estate Agency.

Pleasant company to work with, quickly provide suitable candidates and viewings for rental.

Found an apartment through Via Koops Makelaardij. Jasper handled the viewing and communication, showed professionalism and skill throughout the entire process and made sure it felt easy. Highly recommended

My partner and I had a great experience with Koops Makelaardij Amsterdam. Especially with Charlotte, the realtor. The apartment that was offered through Koops Makelaardij was a perfect addition for my partner and me. Charlotte supported us from the beginning in a friendly, helpful, and professional manner. All questions were answered quickly and professionally. Charlotte made sure to help us as well as possible, did not make promises, but remained optimistic. In the future, we would consider Koops Makelaardij and Charlotte for professional advice and collaboration. Thank you very much!

Nice and friendly staff. Very professional and efficient. Jasper handled my move and was very flexible and attentive.

Had a great experience with Wester Real Estate. They think along well, are friendly and really involved in the entire process from A to Z. I would recommend them to everyone.

Great experience and I can only recommend them. They helped me efficiently with the valuation of my home.

My experience with Julius and the entire team at Wester Real Estate exceeded my expectations! Julius was friendly, knowledgeable, and had an incredible eye for detail and intuition throughout the whole process. His advice was perfect and ensured that the whole search was smooth and stress-free. I would highly recommend Wester Real Estate and especially Julius to anyone looking for a new home. Thank you!

Wester Real Estate has appraised our new apartment. This happened very quickly and professionally. Thanks!

I can wholeheartedly recommend Wester Makelaars for buying a house, especially for expats, because they are truly fantastic at guiding this process. The team, and especially my realtor Julius, did everything in their power to help me find my own home, despite the extra time I had, which certainly didn't make it any easier. They work incredibly hard, are knowledgeable, and go above and beyond to help you find your dream home. Thanks to them, I got mine within no time, and I am extremely grateful for that. Thank you Julius, thank you Wester Makelaars!

It was very pleasant working with both Julius and Jesper; they know exactly what they are talking about and think of things that you might easily overlook yourself. They also have handy contacts, which made the entire process after the purchase smooth and without too much stress.

Wester realtors is a fantastic company. They respond quickly, are reliable and honest. The conversations were open, and our wishes were well listened to. I can wholeheartedly recommend them!

Super experience with Wester Makelaars, I can recommend them to everyone! Jesper guided us well and professionally through the purchase of our first home in Amsterdam, from attending viewings to the transfer at the Notary. Without his help it definitely would not have been possible. The contact was good, he was always reachable and could switch gears quickly. Additionally, he gave good and honest advice. Thank you very much!

After I had bought my new home through Jesper from Wester Makelaars as the selling agent, I knew immediately that he should also sell my house. Jesper is proactive, transparent, and pleasant to deal with. He gave honest advice on the best sales strategy, including practical tips and guidance on styling the property, and outlined clear steps to ensure a smooth process. Jesper is always reachable via WhatsApp and phone, even in the evenings, and switches gears quickly when necessary. What I appreciate further is his transparency about commission and the fact that Jesper fully guides the entire process from start to finish. Recommended if you are looking for an involved and professional agent!

Our experience with Wester Real Estate during the sale of our home was fantastic. The communication always ran professionally and smoothly. The people who helped us, Jesper and Julius, are very down-to-earth and guided us effortlessly through the process and the stress that comes with selling. We are very happy with the result and the overall experience with them. I heartily recommend Wester Real Estate for the sale of your home! Thank you all!

Very pleasant to work with the real estate agent. He provided a stylist with excellent advice on how to present your home for sale, kept in close contact with us during viewings and the sale, and was very helpful with further completion. Highly recommended!

Great communication in unusual circumstances. Went beyond a normal level of service to make the process smooth.

The most responsive and personal realtor we've ever worked with! Highly recommend to anyone who is in the market.

Buying my first apartment in Amsterdam was a big step, and thanks to this team I couldn't have wished for a better experience (a big thumbs up for Jesper and Julius). From start to finish they were proactive, professional and incredibly helpful – they always anticipated my needs, responded quickly to all my questions and gave me sound advice during the bidding process. Everything went as smoothly as I had hoped (and even better), and I am so happy with my new home. A real recommendation if you are looking for reliable and experienced real estate agents in Amsterdam!

In my search for my first home, I quickly realized that it is difficult to find a place in Amsterdam. Following my brother's recommendation, who also bought a house in Amsterdam with Wester Makelaars, I decided to look for one with them. Since this was the first time I was buying a house, I had many questions. Julius was clear in his communication and provided clear explanations about all the different procedures. This made it much easier for me to buy a home. Thanks to good advice and quick action from Julius, I was able to purchase a house that fits me well in a very short time!

Fast and very fine communication. The valuation was quickly scheduled and an accurate report in the inbox within a few days. Definitely a recommendation!

Tim is a 'just be normal and that's crazy enough in the housing market' broker. Knows what's happening in the market, gives good and clear advice and explanation about the purchase procedure and charges a very acceptable commission. And besides his expertise, he is also a pleasant person to do business with.

Tim is a sober, practical and realistic realtor. He advised and assisted us optimally in the sale of our house.

An agent who is always reachable and keeps his appointments promptly, calls back as quickly as possible too, And if you have questions that cannot be answered immediately, you will receive an answer as soon as possible.

TWM effectively helped me to purchase a lovely apartment. They were so helpful and responsive and throughout the journey, which was so confusing at the beginning, they were beside me and smoothly guided me through all steps. Without their help it wasn't possible. I'm thankful and happy to work together with TWM

Good, efficient handling of the appraisal. Customer-friendly settlement and fast!

Patience professional competent thinking along with towards the possibilities in the long term and listening to the environment messages market

Excellent experience! Good price indication, accurate, beautiful presentation and shows a lot of involvement. Very nice. Highly recommended!

Expert and smooth guidance and handling. Took a lot of work off our hands as heirs during the sale. Absolutely reliable!

I'm not the type to leave bad reviews, and I already feel guilty about this, but I hope I can prevent someone else from experiencing the same situation. I will go into more detail below, but briefly: poor advice from TWM has cost me at least €50,000, and the situation is still ongoing. I engaged TWM in 2021 to help me with purchasing a house. If I had written a review then, it would have received 5 stars. The real estate agent I worked with was exceptionally helpful and communicative. As an expat, I felt very reassured. Ultimately, I started looking for properties in the Zaanstad area. TWM informed me that this wasn't their primary working area, but that they could help me here without a problem. Houses in Zaanstad of a certain age are known to require foundation repairs, and it was made clear to me from the beginning that I couldn’t afford foundation repairs and therefore had to avoid buying a house where this was needed. Eventually, I found a property nearby that I really liked... but the house was slightly tilted, which again pointed to foundation problems. I raised this with the real estate agent, who said there was no particular reason for concern, but that a structural survey would give us more clarity. The structural survey was carried out by an inspector recommended by the real estate agent. In the report, he stated that there didn't appear to be any specific reasons for concern regarding the foundation; the house was naturally tilted, but he hadn’t noticed anything abnormal. He also indicated that a specific foundation report could tell us more, but he didn't deem it necessary. I contacted the real estate agent again and asked for reassurance about the foundation issue. Again, I was told there was no reason for concern. I asked the real estate agent about a suitable offer on the house, and he approved the bid I wanted to make, as it was a good offer. Everything went well, I bought the house and moved in. Subsequently, my situation unexpectedly changed and by the end of 2023, it became clear that I would be moving out of the Netherlands. I knew the timeframe would be quite short, so I hoped I would break even with the sale of the house. I contacted TWM again to arrange the sale, as I had previously had such positive experiences with them. Then it became clear that the advice they gave me when purchasing the house was poor. As soon as we tried to sell the house, every potential buyer mentioned problems with the foundation. What was 'no problem' became the reason why nobody wanted to buy the house... and since I only lived in it for two years (November 2021-November 2023), I can hardly imagine that the foundation has deteriorated from 'no cause for concern, perfectly normal' to 'REQUIRES IMMEDIATE RENOVATION' in such a short time. As of this writing, I have had the house on the market for €50,000 less than what I paid for it, and I still can’t get an offer at that amount. This is the minimum amount I can accept and with which I can repay the mortgage; if it's lower, I still have to pay the mortgage. Because TWM seemed so serious and sincere otherwise (hence I still give 2 stars instead of 1), I would like to believe that this was an honest mistake. I’ve spoken with several other real estate agents, and those who did NOT live in Zaanstad seemed to agree with TWM. On paper, they thought the house should be able to be sold for this price without problems. Only a local real estate agent in Zaanstad told me something different. So I suspect that’s because they don’t know the area, and there was no malicious intent involved. That being said, I made the purchase and bid on their recommendation, and hired them to ensure I would pay a fair price, as I don't understand real estate. And I can’t say it was anything other than a failure on their part, even if the mistake was honest. This has derailed my life, and the only loss that TWM suffers is the time it takes to sell the house. That time is probably still covered by their share of the generous offer I initially made on the house, according to their recommendation.

Fast appraisal, thorough investigation

We are extremely satisfied with the speed and good communication with which all assignments were executed.

Our agent, Wesley, always gave us great and honest advice and helped us in every step of the process. We highly recommend this agency.

Valuation for purchase went great!

This is the third time when we worked with TVM, specifically with Wesley. Choosing them another time is the best proof of our opinion about this company. We received continous support, comprehensive guidance and expertise. These are the people who go beyond to achieve the best results for you. I am really happy to recommend TVM !
