05 Jan 2025This review comes after many years, but seems very similar to other reviews. I was asked for 'administrative costs', which I later learned were no longer legal in NL. And I never received my full deposit back from the landlord who was essentially covered by the agency without me receiving a response. They knew that I would be leaving the country, so I was, like many others (see reviews), the perfect victim. Not really helping expats, on the contrary. You could say: expert in fooling expats :)

05 Jun 2024Correct communication via their website as well as by phone, with punctual appointments, both at the start of the rental and upon termination of the lease agreement and handover. However, Xpat Xpert defends ONLY the interests of the landlord (landlord). Despite a perfectly cleaned apartment upon handover, confirmed by photos and a signed handover statement (signed by an employee of Xpat Xpert), part of the deposit was withheld. Xpat Xpert has not heard anything more about this matter. Complete radio silence despite repeated requests for clarification as to the reason for this, as well as their support for the tenant, given the signed handover statement. Still a disappointing end to the rental agreement!

05 Jun 2023Some time ago I was invited for a viewing. For this, I traveled to Leiden, sent all my documentation, and was greeted kindly. Unfortunately, after that, I never heard anything more. I repeatedly tried to make contact, both by email and telephone, but I was never answered. I find this a very unsocial situation; I invest effort, time and money in the procedure only to hear nothing!

05 Jun 2022Everything went smoothly, except for the settlement of an apartment, where the agency acting as an intermediary could not provide an explanation as to why I did not receive the full deposit back. To prevent my problem, make sure you have a signed and agreed-upon sheet at hand during the final inspection of the apartment detailing what needs to be repaired/cleaned before handing over the keys.

05 Jun 2021Another agency that charges the infamous 'administrative costs' to tenants who found the property advertisement themselves on the xpat xpert website. Someone who can sleep well at night even after robbing expats blind during the day has a very flawed character. Avoid at all costs, or simply refuse to pay the administrative costs!!

21 May 2025Sander was our 'Broker' for the sale of our apartment. He is professional, honest and trustworthy. The entire sales process went very smoothly: from the moment photos were taken for the apartment to the moment the contract was signed. It all happened very quickly and in an organized manner with virtually no disruption on our side. If you are looking for a 'Broker' to make your life easier, then Sander from Smash makelaars is my recommendation. And as a bonus, he speaks perfect English in case you are an expat.

21 Feb 2025Very unreliable realtor! They play unfair games and completely ignore bidding deadlines. Instead of following a transparent process, they manipulate the sale by only informing their preferred buyers and giving them the opportunity to outbid. This is pure fraud and utterly unprofessional. It's better to buy your house through an honest and reputable realtor – you’d better avoid this one!

We don't know who you are but this makes absolutely no sense. We actually work with a closed bidding period to prevent this. So stop this nonsense.

21 Jan 2025Recently, we enjoyed working with Sander van Meerten of SMASH Makelaars in the sale of our house in Voorburg, and we can wholeheartedly recommend them. Sander greatly helped us find the perfect buyers for our house. His advice and guidance were invaluable at every step and guided us through the complexity of the sales process with confidence and ease. At any time of day, he was always available to answer our questions, alleviate our concerns or reassure us. His expertise was clearly visible in every aspect of the transaction, from determining the right price for the property to conducting negotiations and ensuring that all paperwork was in order. He even went the extra mile to minimize the hassle for us by seamlessly collaborating with other parties involved and handling details we hadn't thought of. Thanks to his efforts, what could have been a stressful process has become a smooth and enjoyable experience. We are enormously grateful for his support and expertise and would not hesitate to work with him again. Thank you, Sander/SMASH, for making this process as smooth and successful as possible!

From the beginning, he was honest, direct, and clear about what I should and shouldn’t buy. That gave me a lot of confidence. If something seemed too good to be true, he immediately pointed it out and explained why. He was thorough in his research and his advice was always well-supported. What I especially appreciated is that I felt supported until the very end – no empty promises, but real guidance. In short: a reliable and expert agent who truly has your back.

21 Jun 2025After 20 years of selling my house, it was quite a significant step. Rob gained my full trust from the first moment of contact through his market knowledge (Leidschenveen), clear communication, clearly stating mutual expectations, and quick responses to questions/comments. Rob, thank you very much for everything!

Hey Yvette, thanks for your kind words and yes, after 20 years it's not easy to let go of everything, but a new phase of life awaits. Thanks also for the pleasant collaboration which has led to a result more than dreamed of. Just placed the right sticker on your board as a conclusion for now..;-). Good luck with the move and see you soon.

11 Mar 2025Working with Monique was really great! We called her last-minute on the day of the viewing because we still wanted to go and look with a buyer's agent. She reacted very enthusiastically and could even join the viewing. It was lovely to have her there, as I had never bought a house before. Monique guides you through the entire process and gives you daily tips and todo's via the app. I am sure that we would not have 'won' the bid without her and wouldn't have our dream home which we now do. Super fun, spontaneous top woman who is very professional. Highly recommended!

07 Jul 2025Unfortunately a negative experience with Kleurrijk Makelaars. By having the appraisal done here for the purchase of a home, we either had to pay an additional 10,000 euro or have another paid appraisal done by another party because the first appraisal was not real. Unfortunately, we had to incur extra costs as a result, which we could have prevented by not choosing Kleurrijk Makelaars.

21 Nov 2024We were very well guided by Vinod from kleurrijkmakelaars during our purchase process. Our search began in June 2024. After having viewed a number of houses, we finally found our dream house in late July. Vinod went with us for the viewing and gave us a lot of explanation about the property. After the viewing, we decided to make an offer on the property. Vinod then looked everything out for us and we came to a price together that…

21 Apr 2025Houtman & De Vogel. I had them highly rated as a real estate agent, but they really completely missed the mark. Making an April Fool's joke by offering a characteristic property for sale in Boskoop. Interested parties received an email back stating that it was an April Fool's joke. Knowing how tense the housing market is, especially among young people, this is a truly hopeless joke. In my opinion, the employees didn't think things through well before doing this. Giving people hope in this way I find very bad. I secretly hope it costs them customers. Very very bad Houtman @ De Vogel.
Reply from Houtman & de Vogel Makelaardij:
We understand that our April Fool's joke wasn't appreciated by everyone, and we apologize for that. It was certainly not our intention to give false hope. We wanted to playfully draw attention to a unique piece of Boskoop—a tiny little bridge keeper’s house—, but understand that the housing market is a sensitive topic. Thank you for your feedback, we'll take it into consideration.

Date unknownHoutman & de Vogel helped us with the sale of our house. An initial meeting with Eveline felt good immediately and was very positive. She explained how Houtman & de Vogel works and what we could expect. Even when it took a bit longer (5 months), she remained positive and fought until the end to get the maximum out of it for us. Super friendly and clear communication throughout the entire process, even responding on free days/hours if necessary. Eveline and the team provided excellent service and I will definitely recommend them. For the move, I was even able to borrow a van for free. Thanks so much, Eveline and the rest of the team!

16 May 2025No-nonsense real estate agent. Small brokerage firm, resulting in short lines of communication and a personal approach. They are always reachable and took care of me during the sales process. I didn't give them a 10, perfectionism doesn't exist and isn't human or desirable. Then there is no more room for self-reflection. In short: expert and pragmatic real estate agency.
