I had a disappointing and frustrating experience with this service. The makelaar booked both the technical inspection and the house appraisal on my behalf, scheduling them simultaneouslyâa significant error. Logically, the technical inspection should have been completed first, followed by the appraisal. This oversight placed me in a difficult situation, ultimately leading me to cancel the offer after reviewing the house more thoroughly during the technical inspection.
Only after cancelling, I received an appraisal report, along with an invoice of âŹ750, which was of no use for me.
I tried to reach a fair compromise by offering to pay a reasonable amount for their time and effort. Unfortunately, they were adamant about charging the full amount. Any genuine, customer-focused business would have considered this as a goodwill gesture, which could have earned them long-term customer loyalty and recommendations. Instead, they prioritized short-term profits over customer satisfaction.
To add to the frustration, the house was later sold for a price much lower than their appraised value, raising serious doubts about the credibility of their appraisal and hinting at a potential vested interest with the makelaar.
I strongly advise others to be cautious when dealing with this company!
Ontzettend goede service gehad van Yoeri, Carolien en Iris! Ze zijn gelijk aan de slag gegaan met de opdracht, en zeer professioneel. Ik kon ze makkelijk bereiken en ondanks het gekloot en nalatigheid van de makelaar kreeg ik van hen prioriteit omdat ze mijn urgentie begrepen en serieus namen. De taxatie is overcompleet en goed onderbouwd. En dat voor bijna de helft minder dan andere taxateurs ook nog!
Unethical & unfair appraiser. They usually work with unscrupulous makelaars in Almere to inflate property value to defraud buyers into over bidding. An honest appraiser should be independent without having any conflict of interest with the parties involved. It's not up to the expats to clean the system. NVM, NWWI & Authorities should take suo moto & clean the system. More is needed to be done to make the process more transparent & fair.
Ik had nog een navraag voor een bijbouw gedaan en dit hebben ze netjes meegenomen.
Ze zijn kort langs geweest en in het begin moest ik zelf veel achter zaken aan, dit ging heel warrig. De afhandeling was niet heel duidelijk. Het zou handig zijn als er bijvoorbeeld geautomatiseerde mailtjes klaar gezet zouden kunnen worden zodat je een melding krijgt als er iets klaar staat.
Had an amazing experience with Takken Taxaties - contacted over email about tax report for an investment property, got a call back next day. Connected tenants with Takken taxaties and got hustle-free report in 8 days - right before the Christmas holidays. Canât recommend more - fastest experience I had in Netherlands so far
