02 Oct 2025Ten years ago, Migiel already helped me as a buyer's agent with my first purchase of a house. At that time, it was immediately clear how involved he is, with lots of knowledge, a critical eye and asking the right questions at the right moment. That gave a lot of trust. Now, years later, we have once again engaged him; this time as a buyer's and seller's agent. And again I (and this time also my friend) have had the same positive experience. Both when buying and selling, he is of great value to us g…

12 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.

25 Nov 2024The collaboration with Dimitri was excellent! Expert, professional, friendly, reliable and communicates in a pleasant and quick way. He advised me excellently throughout the entire process. Dimitri was able to sell my apartment in Amsterdam for a good price and the costs were manageable compared to other real estate agents. I can therefore wholeheartedly recommend Dimitri!

16 Jun 2025Mr. Lankhorst is a realtor like no other. And that I mean extremely positive. He approaches each house and family with a certain joie-de-vivre, making a stressful situation fun and playful. He inspires confidence. And the result was far above our expectations. Also thanks to Dimitri. By far the best realtor in Amsterdam.

20 Aug 2024Dimitri Lankhorst gave us an indispensable source of information about the real estate market in the Netherlands, all the procedures and rules. He helped us with finding and viewing apartments, and most importantly - advised us always about the quality, location and layout of the apartments. He is a very reliable and involved person. When I started to look for an apartment I didn't expect such fantastic work from a real estate agent.

Date unknownMy son lived happily in a room through PMA Real Estate for over two years. The accommodation was neat and the communication was slow in some cases, but ultimately issues were resolved. The living experience itself was therefore predominantly positive. However, the handling of the lease termination deserves attention and is important for future tenants – especially students who rent jointly – to be aware of. My son formally and correctly terminated his rental agreement, handed over the property without defects, and returned the keys after a final inspection where no damage or arrears were found. Nevertheless, PMA continues to refuse to refund the paid share of the deposit (€750), citing the reason that the other tenant is still residing in the property. Despite multiple neat and legally substantiated requests, substantive responses remained absent. The fact that I repeatedly dealt with changing contact persons – one time Kees, then Tjeerd – did not contribute to clarity or accountability. The email I received as a last response literally read: “I understand that you would like to direct things according to your own hand and good thinking but the real world works differently.” A very unprofessional tone that does not suit a rental organization and certainly not when it comes to students and parents who want to conclude matters correctly. So pay close attention if you are moving into a property with multiple tenants through PMA: the contract is shared, but the deposit is not held per person. This can cost you dearly upon check-out – even if you have correctly terminated, handed over, and paid your own share. In our case, the deposit payment was divided between two people, but upon departure, this is suddenly no longer taken into account. Hopefully, this feedback will lead to improvement in communication and processing in the future. Meanwhile, three weeks have passed, the other resident has also left the property. But we still haven't received the deposit back. Emails are not being answered. Very regrettable and unprofessional. I have therefore reduced the rating to 1 star.

Thank you for sharing your experiences with PMA Real Estate. It makes us happy to hear that your son's living situation was predominantly positive, but we regret the problems that arose during the lease termination and the handling of the deposit. We take your feedback about the communication and the treatment of deposit matters very seriously and will discuss this internally to improve our process. We are sorry that you experienced unprofessional communication; that is certainly not how we want our tenants to be treated. We appreciate your input and hope to be able to offer better service in the future.

He gave the best recommendations and guidance to ensure that the property attracted the right interest, offered good prospects, and was perfectly placed in the market.

Thank you very much, I will be eternally grateful and I will definitely use this service again!
2/10Océane - google
11 Nov 2022I would absolutely not recommend this company! I am surprised to read in the review that there are professionals... It took several weeks before we could live normally in our apartment again (no hot water, broken terrace door, broken heating...). They didn't respond and initially said it could be our fault. We had to solve many problems ourselves. And now they don't even want to refund our deposit for energy bills we have never heard of, which they can’t even pay and which are not in the contract... Very disappointing and such behavior is clearly unreliable for both parties: the tenant or the owner. (We often rent apartments and this is the worst time!!!!)
Reply from PMA Makelaardij en beheer:
Dear Océane, the rental agreement you signed did not include utilities and you were informed that you needed to put all utilities in your name. Because this was not done for the heating and hot water of the property, the landlord correctly charged you that amount for the period you lived there and provided you with all invoices. All other issues you mentioned which are normal for a home have been resolved promptly, but some minor repairs fall under the responsibility of the tenant, as you are the one using the property. This is also clearly stated in the signed rental agreement. Nevertheless, we thank you for your stay as a tenant and for leaving a review, because we always strive to improve our customer service. We wish you all the best for the future. Sincerely, Property Manager Amsterdam

11 Nov 2022We hired Property Manager Amsterdam (PMA) when they just started. Over the years, whenever something went wrong, we reasoned that PMA lacked sufficient experience. But with the latest rental period, we could no longer justify this excuse. I wish we had stopped collaborating with PMA before it became a time-, energy- and money-consuming job. In the last rental agreement that PMA drafted for us, it stated that our property should be returned in the same condition as in which the tenant received it. Including the inventory list, of which the tenant had signed a detailed list upon entry. The agreement also stipulated that the tenant should deregister with the municipality at the end of the rental period. Nevertheless, PMA did not hold the tenant liable for the following matters. The tenant: - Did not deregister with the municipality - Damaged paintwork beyond normal wear and tear - Damaged furniture and floors beyond normal wear and tear - Missing inventory items were not returned - Consistently failed to report damage to the apartment as required by law - Did not perform minor repairs as required by law PMA dismissed all of the above points, referring to Dutch legislation and stating that they had to protect their business. However, I discovered that the rental agreement and Dutch legislation supported our claims. This gave me the impression that PMA has insufficient knowledge of Dutch legislation or language. It also made me feel that PMA was not on our side. Here is another list of things that went wrong during the previous rental period. PMA: - The property was not thoroughly inspected, no inventory was created and no signature from the tenant was collected. - Stains on all walls and furniture were not noted, resulting in a total repair cost of € 5400,-. - The property was not delivered on the agreed date. - The property was not delivered as clean as it was received. - Communication was not timely. - No responsibility was taken for mistakes. All in all, it took us four weeks to clear up the mess, which is not what we expected when hiring a property manager.
Reply from PMA Makelaardij en beheer:
Dear Mirha, Thank you for your review. It is a pity that after being a customer for 5 years, your review is based on the last rental period. It's also unfortunate that this has to happen again after 5 months. We have always tried to meet your requests, provided you with support where needed, and we successfully found 4 different tenants for you during that time who met all your requirements. It is unrealistic to expect a property to be handed over in exactly the same condition after years of renting, without major maintenance, such as painting, for more than 10 years. Properties are subject to normal wear and tear and landlords cannot expect a tenant to pay the full cost for a new property that was not new when the rental period began. We simply could not agree with all the points mentioned regarding the non-liability of the tenant: - Holding €1.500 of the tenant's deposit until we received an official letter from the municipality, while we had already forwarded you the email from the municipality confirming this. - The wish to charge for a full painting job, while the apartment was painted more than 10 years ago. - The wish to request the full price for furniture, without taking into account the lifespan, wear and tear, quality of the item and the amount charged monthly for the use of furniture and furnishings. - The wish to charge for missing inventory that had been stored in closed boxes in a basement for 3 years, during two rental periods, and which even we were not allowed to touch. Part of that inventory consisted of cleaning products, coffee capsules, personal hygiene products and other small household items with a limited shelf life. We felt the need to protect our case, because you asked us not to inform the tenant that it was your request for these deductions. Afterwards you wanted to remove us from the conversation and prohibited us from communicating with the tenant. Other matters: - Check-in and check-out reports were created, signed by the tenant and sent to you. We did not agree with the full list of missing items, because some items were not missing. - What you call repair costs for a painting job older than 10 years, we call normal maintenance costs. - It was agreed that the property would be handed over a few days later, because it was not clean enough. These things are outside of our control and we have done everything to get the property ready on time and have always kept in contact with you. - During the entire process there were multiple phone calls with your partner G., where it was agreed how to proceed. But you kept sending us emails with requests for deductions, parallel to these conversations with your partner. At a certain point we only kept in contact with G., because his name was on the contract and he was the official landlord. We took care of the cleaning and reporting of the stains on the walls and have reimbursed you an amount to help you with this, despite the fact that the stains on the walls had been in the property for 3 years before the last two tenants and during your last stay. There is experience and knowledge of Dutch legislation, which we have and know, but there's also common sense and honesty. All these variables play a role when situations like this occur. We believe that the tenant has handed over the property in a reasonable condition and not in the condition you suggest. We understand that this was an annoying situation for all involved parties, but unfortunately situations like these occur with rental properties. We are convinced that we have done our job as a mediator and property manager by advising you to resolve disputes as fairly and honestly as possible. Nevertheless, we deeply regret that a good working relationship has ended in this manner. For now, we can only see it as a learning experience and for that we thank you. We wish you all the best for the future.

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.

02 Jul 2025Thanks to Jeff, we sold our house for a significantly higher amount than I would have agreed to. We received an initial offer that I actually already wanted to accept myself. Luckily, Jeff managed to talk us out of it and also ensured the other viewings went ahead. As a result, we started an auction on Friday morning from which we were able to get the maximum out of the sale! Thanks Jeff, you were amazing!

2/10Ahmet Taylan - google
07 Feb 2025I visited RE/MAX Royal at their office and my experience was frankly disappointing. From the moment I walked in, I didn't feel like I was being treated as a serious person. The employees seemed uninterested and unprofessional. In addition, my data was handled carelessly. Mistakes were made and I had to provide the same information multiple times, which was very frustrating. This doesn’t exactly inspire confidence, especially when it comes to something important like buying or selling a home. All in all, I would absolutely not recommend this real estate agent. Customer friendliness and carefulness don't seem to be a priority here.

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 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.

25 Apr 2025Saen Garantiemakelaars was a good choice! We received very good advice and a great campaign plan presented to us, and the sales process then proceeded virtually flawlessly. The communication was also highly competent and friendly in all stages of the process. Our buyers later confided in us that the charming, engaging way broker Marcel conducted the viewings really had an impact on the perception of the house. In short, professional and sympathetic. We look back with pleasure on the whole adventure, and are very satisfied with the result!

25 Apr 2025If you engage a buyer's agent, of course you hope they work thoroughly. Well, Marcel more than fulfilled that wish! No corner or crevice was overlooked, allowing him to quickly sketch out a realistic picture of the possibilities in negotiation but also an increase in future market value. Communication was clear and we never had to wait long for an answer should a question arise. No notes, 10/10 would hire again!

25 Dec 2024As a first-time homebuyer, Marcel offered more support than just the transaction. He informed me about every step in the process and stood ready for me throughout the entire process. When I was stressed about the current situation in the housing market, combined with the extremely competitive bidding process, he was patient, communicative, and helped me develop a strategy. He answered calls and messages quickly and kept me updated on every development. His ability to explain every aspect of the process, including the complex contract details, was particularly helpful. The entire process was a rollercoaster ride for me, but with Marcel's help, it was a true experience. I can wholeheartedly recommend Marcel if you are looking for a great real estate agent!

25 Oct 2024We were fantastically helped by Marcel in the purchase of our house in Zaandam. He was very professional, contact with him was fantastic, and we could really tell that he knew what he was doing. Furthermore, we sought advice via the financial advisor who Saen works with, namely Finenzo. Here we were helped by Jamie, who really did a fantastic job; when we were under time pressure for the mortgage application, she saved us and everything worked out well anyway. All in all, a very pleasant experience and highly recommended!
