Moest zelf vaak achteraan bellen hij belde wel snel terug maar het initiatief lag bij ons. Inschatting van de vraagprijs niet helemaal juist. Gevoel snelle verkoop en zo weinig mogelijk tijd in steken.

De makelaar stond adequaat klaar om steeds op tijd mij te informeren en gericht en met inzicht advies te geven. Dit heeft geresulteerd in een bod waarmee het huis verkregen is en wat binnen de grenzen van haalbaarheid is gebleven. Dank daarvoor

Wij hebben een uitstekende ervaring gehad met deze makelaar. Het hele proces verliep zeer soepel en duidelijk. We voelden ons vanaf het begin goed begeleid en serieus genomen. De communicatie was uitstekend: ze waren altijd goed bereikbaar en reageerden zeer snel op onze vragen.

We are extremely satisfied with the guidance provided by Alfred Bakker Makelaars. As first-time home buyers, we found it most exciting, but we were fully and accurately guided throughout the entire process. That gave us a lot of peace of mind and trust. In addition, we also had access to multiple properties in the quiet sale, which was very pleasant. Ultimately, we were able to buy a beautiful home in the city center. Everything was actually taken care of and that made the entire journey much easier. We can therefore certainly recommend this office!

For the purchase of our home, we worked together with Alfred Bakker Makelaars, with Niels as our purchase agent. What we especially found very pleasant was the personal approach and good accessibility throughout the entire process. Niels was always quick to respond, thought actively with us and made sure that we were well prepared for each viewing and offer. His knowledge of the market and honest advice really helped us in making the right choices. Thanks to this guidance, we were ultimately able to purchase a nice home with a good feeling. We look back on a very pleasant collaboration and can certainly recommend Alfred Bakker Makelaars and Niels as a purchase agent.

During the viewing, it was stated that €5000 more in mining damage could still be claimed. In the sales agreement, it is stated that this has already been fully claimed. The real estate agent was approached about this and came up with the story that it was probably a misunderstanding, he was very clear during the viewing but now is turning 180 degrees. It was also mentioned that there's nothing more to be done now and that there are enough buyers in line. Unreliable. Furthermore, during the viewing it was said that the meter box would be with the downstairs neighbors and therefore could not be inspected. At handover, the real estate agent couldn't find the meter readings anywhere and it turns out that the meter box is indeed present in the property. Preparation is not their strongest point. Tip: have important matters confirmed in writing before you make an offer.

Initially, I was a bit skeptical about the concept of silent sales. However, I quickly noticed that Alfred Bakker Makelaars kept me well and regularly informed about properties becoming available. The office turned out to have a broader range of properties in silent sales than I had expected beforehand. During the process, there was active involvement and I continuously saw new possibilities that fit well with my wishes. Thanks to this approach, I was ultimately able to purchase my first property within this offering and in cooperation with Alfred Bakker Makelaars. A pleasant and professional guidance, which I can certainly recommend.

Fine and friendly communication that made the arrangements run smoothly. Very knowledgeable people who had a lot of insight and asked targeted questions to the selling agent. They have many connections, so the processing time also went super fast! The only point that could have been done better perhaps was explaining a bit more at the beginning of the process what kind of costs are involved and how the search and purchase process looks like, since I had never experienced this before.

Bad experience with them. Recently, after much consideration, a complaint was filed with the NRVT regarding this broker. When selling our house, we hired an appraiser, Van Santen de Hoog. Broker Bakker worked for the buyer. During our appraisal, this broker imposed himself on our appraiser (by insisting on being present on the same day). In my opinion, there was clearly collusion to determine a lower price and the other broker even drafted the plausibility statement in our report. Both deny any conflict of interest. The case is with the NVRT and I will add an update later.

My house was sold quickly and to my full satisfaction, above the asking price, partly as a result of a good sales strategy by real estate agent Henk Buma.

I am not planning to move again in the short term but if that were the case, I would definitely ask Henk again.

Unreliable party! Broker Henk Buma did not ensure that the verbal agreement for drafting a preliminary purchase contract was put on paper in time (it took more than a week). This kept the door open for new bids. In our situation, this resulted in a higher bid being received, which the selling party agreed to. Don't leave Alfred Bakker's office before all agreements are in writing. You can't rely on verbal agreements!
