We had a fantastic experience with Wim Loos of the Westwijk Makelaars. He helped us search and purchase a nice house. Wim met us to understand our requirements and thereafter it was all him and I had to put almost no effort. Wim has a really good understanding of the housing market, especially in and around Amstelveen, Hoofddorp, Uithoorn, Niew-Vennep, Amsterdam and Haarlem. From recommending houses suitable for us to arranging viewings, contacting other makelaars, negotiations, even working with my hypotheeker to make sure the process was smooth, Wim did it all for us. He was very patient as we viewed a lot of houses before finally buying one. Wim always encouraged us to take our time and never over pay in desperation. He always told us when he thought the house was overpriced and mortgage for 100% amount was at risk. Wim has a great eye for detail/finding hidden defects, which was really helpful. I can highly recommend Wim for his services and expertise.
