    This review comes after many years, but seems very similar to other reviews. I was asked about 'administrative costs', which, as it turned out later, were no longer legally allowed in the Netherlands. And I never received my full deposit back from the landlord, who effectively took care of the real estate agent without telling me anything at all. They knew that I would be leaving the country, so I was, like many others (see reviews), the ideal victim. Not really helpful for expats, quite the contrary. You could say that I am an expert in fooling expats :)

    Correct 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!

    Some 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!

    Everything went smoothly, except when checking out of an apartment. The intermediary could not explain to me why I did not receive the full deposit back. To prevent problems, make sure you have a signed agreement during the final inspection of the apartment about what needs to be repaired/cleaned before handing over the keys.

    Another 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!!

    Sander 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.

    Very 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!

    Recently, 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!

    They are friendly and helpful when they have contact with you. I had some problems with the new apartment. According to the real estate agents, it was a short circuit that would be resolved within a few hours (it took much longer). I had to contact them multiple times to get it resolved.

We had a houseboat and that is really other buyers off Thea as one says, and they already have a lot of experience in brick houses and scored high there, but now even more in houseboats.

Aleida was very professional, friendly, and always willing to help. Her support made the entire process much smoother. I am enormously grateful to them and would definitely recommend their services!

    I recently moved from Arnhem and didn't know the new neighborhood at all. Luckily, I had Mark as my buyer's agent. 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.

    Just like all other reviews, enormously impressed with the collaboration with Monique Wolvers. She is very professional, but absolutely does not forget the human aspect when buying a house. We really needed her services for the purchase of an apartment. Without her critical perspective, decisiveness, but also very friendly approach, we would never have been able to get a house. Wolvers Real Estate thinks along, is always easily accessible and ensures a good handling of matters that we know too little about.

    Looking for a house in the Groene Hart region? Then I advise you to directly engage Monique Wolvers of Monique Wolvers Purchase Broker! She helped us find that property, even in a wildly fluctuating housing market, which meets all our living wishes and is also affordable. Monique is well-informed with a large network, essential to be successful now. She quickly delves into you as a client, is proactive so you can see suitable properties as soon as possible, is attentive and learns quickly, allowing her to increasingly respond to the property that you as a buyer are looking for. And when the time comes, she is persistent and knows how to put just that extra emphasis on the selling party, so that in this market you find the house that suits you without having to take irresponsible risks. I wholeheartedly recommend Monique Wolvers Purchase Broker. And, an extra plus: Monique focuses purely on purchasing homes. No double hats and, in my opinion, that only benefits the advice given to the buyer!

    Monique is a genuine person with a lot of empathy. Always gives honest, transparent and professional feedback to me as a salesperson and also to the sellers. This guarantees a successful sale or purchase. She has many contacts that have proven very valuable to us. In short, she is a pleasant real estate agent who is well rooted in this area.

    Very satisfied with the collaboration with Monique Wolvers. I was able to leave the sale of my house with great confidence to Monique Wolvers. From the first moment, the communication was clear and pleasant. Monique responds quickly, thinks proactively and keeps you well informed of every step in the process. What I really liked was her personal and involved approach. She listens carefully, has an eye for the situation and comes up with clear and realistic advice. I felt truly taken seriously, without unnecessary pressure being applied. Monique has a lot of knowledge of the local market and knows exactly which resources and sales methods are effective at what time. Thanks to her thoughtful approach, the sale got off to a quick start. The property was professionally presented and well publicized, resulting in serious interest and ultimately a beautiful result. She is persistent and does not lose sight of the importance of her client. Monique thinks strategically, recognizes which bidders are promising and directs them in a calm but decisive manner. In short: a reliable, accessible and expert real estate agent who is pleasant to work with. I am happy that I chose her and can certainly recommend her to others who want to sell their house.

    From the beginning, Monique Wolvers was enormously involved in our search for a house. And always with an optimistic attitude. You notice that she is busy, but when something important needs to happen, you can count on her to commit 110% to you. And that has ensured that we already had a house after attempt 3. Thank you Monique!

    Unfortunately 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.

    Excellent service and a great experience! We are incredibly happy that we chose Ivo van der Leek Makelaardij for the sale of our house at Oppenheimstraat 23 in Leiden. From the very first contact, it was clear that Ivo is not just any real estate agent. His excellent communication skills immediately stood out: always timely, correct, and clear in his explanations. No question remained unanswered, and he kept us perfectly informed throughout the entire process…

    Houtman & 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.

    Houtman & 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!

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.
