08 Jul 2025Excellent guidance received during the sale of my mother's house. Many tasks taken out of our hands, which was very nice because I do not (anymore) live nearby.

08 Mar 2025Unfortunately, we had a disappointing experience with the realtor who showed us the house, Coen. We were slightly late for the viewing, but we had called beforehand and were assured that it would not be a problem. The intern we spoke to was polite and helpful, but Coen was rude and unwelcoming. He didn't even walk with us through the house, and we felt uncomfortable asking questions because he seemed rushed and grumpy. All in all, it was an unpleasant experience and left a negative impression of the realtor and even of the house itself. Absolutely terrible.

Dear Mr. E.G., I am sorry to hear that you did not have a good experience with us. I cannot find you in our system. Could you please email your contact details to: Koogaandezaan@saen.nl? Then I will investigate where things went wrong and contact you. Sincerely,

27 Sep 2024Nice to have one contact person during the viewings. We had complete confidence in Coen's knowledge and expertise during this part of the sale. Unfortunately, afterwards, we consistently felt a lot of time pressure to make big decisions quickly. We had hoped that the real estate agent would guide us better in this regard and stand more on our side. Considering the high commission, the unnecessarily long wait for the ‘sold’ sticker to be placed, and this last-mentioned experience which weighs heavily, not a mega recommendation...

Date unknownAnother arrogant realtor! Absolutely no time for the buyer, the realtor runs through an entire house in 7 minutes and you're standing outside again with your bid form. I still remember proudly announcing that there were many bids well above the asking price. Bid form filled out and then never heard anything more.
Reply from Saen Garantiemakelaars Koog aan de Zaan:
Dear Mr. Smal, What a shame to hear that you had a negative experience with us. We are constantly working to improve our services. However, I cannot find our system and therefore cannot determine exactly where things went wrong. Would you be so kind as to provide us with more information about this incident? You can email this to koogaandezaan@saen.nl Sincerely, Saen Guarantee Brokers

19 Apr 2025We initially worked with Gaby to buy our house as first-time buyers as an expat buyer in Amsterdam. Because we were new to the Dutch housing market, he guided us excellently through everything, including handling our offer, arranging technical inspections, and finding a notary. So when it was time to upgrade, we were happy to work with him again for the sale of that property and the purchase of a second one. Gaby is very experienced and an expert in the Amsterdam housing market. With his help, we got a great bid and are very happy with our sale. We are also super happy with our new house! I would definitely recommend Thuis in Vastgoed (and have done so!) to any expat seeking help navigating the Dutch housing market.

Date unknownMy lawyer has repeatedly pointed out to this broker the legal regulations, which were ignored. Three times I received an incorrect order of services with numerous errors, including even a wrong house number. An order even crossed out with pen and scribbles. A price tag was stuck on the property without consultation, with the answer being that I wasn't a realtor, didn't understand, and had to have a structural survey carried out at my expense. Finally, the association NVM was brought in, then it became too hot for this broker under his feet and he threw in the towel. I hope Mike Gorter is satisfied with putting a 6-year-old child on the street and then moving into the property himself without taking over and preventing the sale. In short, a very bad realtor, (apparently I'm not the only one see review facebook). Arrogant, Unreliable, doesn't keep appointments. Scammers!!!! A warned person counts for two.

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.

22 Apr 2025We are incredibly pleased with Barry as our buyer's agent. In just 6 years, he has helped us purchase 2 homes in the Amsterdam region. His over 20 years of experience as a certified real estate agent shines through in everything he does. What truly sets Barry apart is his incredible network. He seems to know everyone in Amsterdam, Amstelveen and surrounding areas. This gives his clients a real advantage in this competitive market. Barry is always patient, attentive, and goes above and beyond to ensure that his clients find their dream home. His personal approach and attention to detail are truly exceptional. We are incredibly grateful for his excellent guidance throughout our entire purchasing process. Whether you are a local or an expat looking to move or invest, we cannot recommend Barry enough. If you need a buyer's agent in Amsterdam, don't look any further: Barry is certainly the right choice!
Reply from Burgemeester Vastgoed:
Dear Amy and Laurent, Thank you so much for your sincere words. It was a true pleasure to work with you, not just once, but twice! I have enjoyed helping you find the right homes in the Amsterdam region immensely, and I greatly appreciate your trust over the years. I am especially grateful for your kind comments about my experience and network; it means a lot. The home buying process can be intense, and my goal is always to make it as smooth and personal as possible. I am so glad that you felt supported at every step. I wish you much happiness in your new home, and who knows, maybe house number three in the future? 😊 Cheers!

22 Apr 2025I cannot recommend Barry highly enough to anyone looking to buy an apartment in and around Amsterdam in the current market. He is simply superb. Within 2 weeks, we found a perfect place that exceeded our expectations. This would have been impossible without Barry's expert guidance and extremely professional and helpful attitude. Communication with Barry was seamless. He is exceptionally personable and tailors his guidance precisely to what you are looking for, whether it concerns location, type of property or price range. His knowledge and network are enormous and he offers candid advice to prevent 'overly emotional' decisions that you may later regret. The entire process was a pleasure, especially thanks to Barry’s careful attention and extremely kind character. I would like to speak with anyone considering using Barry to share more about our experiences. In short, if you can convince Barry to help you, don't hesitate and grab him before someone else does. From my experience, you won't regret it. Brendan O'Dwyer
Reply from Burgemeester Vastgoed:
Thank you Brendan and Kim for their collaboration with us! We are truly honored that you chose us to help you find your new home in Amsterdam. It was a true pleasure to work with both of you. Your words mean a lot to us: 'If you can convince Barry to help you, don't hesitate and grab him before someone else does.' That made us smile – and yes, we always have a place for you. Thank you for your trust, your kind words and letting us be part of such an important chapter in your life. I wish you much happiness in your beautiful new home! Cheers!

22 Apr 2025In our search for a good real estate agent in Amsterdam, we were recommended Barry. After an initial conversation, we immediately had confidence in both Barry and Monique. Barry quickly understood what we were looking for after this conversation and also advised us accordingly. Throughout the entire process, Barry was very involved and always open to all of our questions. Even after the offer was accepted, Barry continued to help us with the notary process etc. We are very happy with Barry and Monique and would definitely recommend them to everyone!

22 Mar 2025We went looking for a new apartment in Amsterdam without extensive preparation and expected a quick victory here. It was anticipated that we would enter a challenging market, where we balanced between making a winning bid and offering something still reasonable enough to justify the mortgage value. It felt like a complete relief to have Barry on board our team, to forget the struggle and leave this to a very experienced professional, and simply enjoy the ride. Premium service pays well, but is every cent more than worth it. Highly recommended and once again greatly appreciated for his help in our life-changing process.

22 Mar 2025Barry exceptionally helped us find our dream house in Amsterdam. From the beginning, he carefully selected accommodations that met our needs and quickly adjusted his recommendations based on our feedback. Just as we were about to lower our expectations, Barry found a house for us that we truly loved. With his expert guidance on timing and bidding strategy, our first offer was accepted - something we didn't think possible in Amsterdam’s competitive market! Thanks to his proactive approach, everything went quickly and smoothly. We are now happily settled into our house in Amsterdam, which we weren't even sure was feasible. Thank you, Barry, for making the impossible possible! Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for a home in Amsterdam.

22 Feb 2025Barry has been very helpful with his recommendations from day 1. Always willing to help and answer all my questions and requests. He is very dedicated and will be honest in his opinion about the houses you visit. If it doesn't suit you, he will let you know. Even when helping with the decision to bid too much, which is quite common in this tight Amsterdam market, he is very aware and will tell you whether or not it is worth making a higher offer. He is extremely reliable, respectful, patient and trustworthy.

22 Dec 2024Barry's help with the purchase of my first apartment was invaluable. He actively listened to my wishes and made sure he screened all apartments before viewing them, which saved us time and energy. He regularly came up with possibilities before I had seen them online. During viewings, he ensured that he focused on all the small but important technical details so that I could focus on my overall opinion of the apartments. He didn't rush and even postponed the process several times due to details I had overlooked. Ultimately, we found the perfect apartment for me in less than two months. And thanks to his market knowledge and negotiation skills, I got a great apartment at a great price without having to pay transfer tax. Finally, Barry checked all the documents to make sure everything was in order, which was enormously important to me since I don't yet speak Dutch. All in all, I am very happy with Barry and I can wholeheartedly recommend him.

15 May 2025They sell apartments without knowing the division of ownership deeds, let alone pointing this out to potential buyers. Years of conflict within the HOA is not mentioned to the buyers. Moreover, they lie about the proportions within the HOA and make it look better than it is. I warned Manuela about this but she didn't care. It is prohibited and unethical. However, she doesn't care about that.

Date unknownWe rented an apartment through Prestige Housing. Manuela (real estate manager/not a real estate owner) presents herself as very professional and cooperative, but that is absolutely an illusion. When we moved in, we discovered that several things were broken and needed to be repaired. For some things, it took more than six months to get them fixed, while quite a bit of money had to be paid monthly. She didn't allow me to contact the owner of the property myself to resolve some issues. Fortunately, he is very collegial and reasonable. Something that Manuela clearly isn’t. I would not recommend working with her as a tenant or real estate owner. Her way of communicating is very unpleasant and unreasonable. 2nd review (after rental period) after we left the apartment, it got even worse. Manuela texted me that I should remove this 1-star review. Her argument; my review is incorrect. She even threatened me with legal action if I didn’t remove this review. In my opinion, this portrays Manuela in all respects. In our case, she did not take responsibility for her negligence during our rental period. It was a complete nightmare for me and my family to have her as a property manager.

15 Sep 2019Prestige Housing knows the Amsterdam rental market, has contacts with companies where expats work. I had my apartment for rent through a real estate agent for a month and it wasn't rented out. Prestige Housing took different photos, a different description. Within a few days I had three viewings and within a week it was rented out. Clear price agreements. Highly recommended.

27 Sep 2025We were very well assisted by Sake from homeup. He guided us throughout the entire process in a pleasant way and always gave clear advice. The communication was personal and we felt well supported from beginning to end. Without homeup, it would have been much more difficult for us to buy a house in Utrecht, so we are really happy that we made this choice. We would recommend it to everyone.

20 Sep 2025I had an excellent experience with Sake! He really helped me purchase a house as a first-time buyer and expat in the difficult Amsterdam market. He was always available to answer my questions and help me explore this new market. He helped me make a very good offer on my dream home and accelerated the entire process until the key transfer. I just had to sit back and relax. I can wholeheartedly recommend him!

04 Aug 2025Thomas helped me with the purchase of my first house and taught me how bidding works in the Netherlands. He gave me so much good advice during the process where I otherwise would have gotten completely entangled. Thomas worked together with my mortgage advisor, so it was very easy and stress-free. He scheduled all structural surveys, appraisals, and notary appointments, requested quotes, and made sure everything went smoothly! I would definitely recommend HomeUp to anyone who is starting out in the housing market, especially because the brokerage fee is not based on the purchase price, but on a fair fixed rate.

04 Sep 2025For the purchase of my new home, I engaged Martine de Keijzer. From the first contact, I felt taken seriously and well guided. She took ample time to discuss my wishes and gave honest and expert advice throughout the entire process. What I particularly appreciated was her accessibility and clear communication. No question was too much, and I always received a clear answer quickly. Even during the viewings, she pointed out things that I wouldn't have thought of so quickly, which gave me a lot of confidence. During the negotiations, Martine really made the difference. Thanks to their experience and commitment, I was able to buy my new home without worrying about the settlement. Professional, involved and reliable. I am incredibly happy with the guidance and would recommend Martine to anyone who wants to buy a home.

28 Aug 2025We are incredibly pleased with Ingeborg's guidance, both for the purchase of our house and arranging the mortgage. From the first contact, we noticed how friendly and clear she is. She took plenty of time to explain everything to us thoroughly, from the purchasing process to the various mortgage options. During the viewings, Ingeborg went with us and asked the right questions that we wouldn't have thought of ourselves. This gave us a lot of confidence and ensured that we could make choices well prepared. She was also always quickly accessible when we had questions, which was very nice and reassuring in this process. We experienced her guidance as highly professional, involved, and pleasant. Thanks to her, we always knew what to expect and felt supported in this important process. In short: a fantastic purchasing agent and mortgage advisor that we wholeheartedly recommend!
