No 9-to-5 mentality

After a long search, I finally hired Wilfred as my purchasing real estate agent. Thanks to him, I was able to buy my own house. If you have any questions, you can always reach him. He doesn’t have a 9-to-5 mentality.

Sympathetic, helpful, and reassuring

“Just be yourself, that’s crazy enough.” Sympathetic, helpful, and reassuring. You don’t often deal with these kinds of matters, so having someone guide you through it is very pleasant. And even outside of buying and selling matters, he helped.

Excellent assistance!

After our spontaneous and unplanned raid on his office, Wilfred Hemme provided us with excellent assistance in selling our home. Despite the considerable time pressure associated with our assignment, Wilfred took care of everything. Wilfred is really on top of everything, pays attention to the smallest details and exudes a lot of calm and confidence. This certainly helped us during this hectic period!

All credits to this real estate agent for an extraordinary purchase!

An extraordinary purchase was made for us, executed entirely to our satisfaction! Where many real estate agents would have thrown in the towel, we managed—after much effort and energy (including discussions with the municipality)—to secure our dream home. All credit goes to Wilfred; thank you so much!!

Exceptional and amazing service

Exceptional and wonderful service, even considering all the complexities related to finding a house in the Netherlands from abroad (we are from Mexico). Wilfred helped us to sort out all problems and special request from my wife and daughter. Thanks to him, we found an exceptional house with perfect rental conditions. He went above and beyond, even picking us up from the airport and assisting with our twenty pieces of luggage (he kindly invited his friendly girlfriend to help us). I highly recommend this company for anyone looking to find a place to live in the Netherlands, and for all matters related to this.

Excellent experience!

I had an excellent experience with Lisette who helped me buy the property initially, and also sell when I unexpectedly had to move out of the country. She was a wealth of market knowledge and also patient in walking me through the process as I was a first-time buyer (and later first-time seller!). Would highly recommend her; she’s fantastic!

Wilfred’s deep market knowledge, attention to detail, and professionalism set him apart. He was always quick to respond, coordinated seamlessly with others involved, and ensured I was well-informed throughout. Thanks to Wilfred, I’m now a proud apartment owner.

Very pleasant collaboration with Wilfred!

The collaboration with Wilfred was very pleasant!! He guides the buying process effectively. He carefully reviews important documents, such as those from the homeowners’ association, to ensure a worthy offer can be made and reminds you to renew your energy label, which could potentially allow you to borrow more. These are all matters that a layperson wouldn’t typically know about, and he provides excellent help and advice. Wilfred, thank you 🙂

Wilfred has truly exceeded all expectations

From Canada, we recently moved back to the Netherlands. We are often critical of service providers, but Wilfred has truly exceeded all expectations. First, he helped us find a temporary rental home, and later he assisted us in our search for a new house to buy. Wilfred goes above and beyond for his clients—more like ten steps beyond. Knowledgeable, professional, and a genuinely great guy!

I would definitely recommend them

Mr. Hemme and by extension ‘Hemme Makelaardij & Vastgoed Consultancy’ helped and supported us throughout the process of buying our dream house. From the moment we found the house, he took all the necessary steps including checking and evaluating the place, placing right offer and all the paper work afterwards which was a good thing to take them off our shoulders and let a professional worry about them. He would always be available and respond to any question we had in no time. All in all i would definitely recommend them to anybody who has similar needs

Helped fantastically

Realtor Wilfred Hemme has done a fantastic job assisting me with the purchase of my new home. Moving from the Randstad to Drenthe is challenging when you’re not familiar with the area. Wilfred has provided me with excellent insights into the possibilities offered by the various villages and areas of Drenthe. This meant that all I had to do was describe the situation I wanted to be in, after which concrete suggestions for houses to view were provided. Our communication throughout this process was always in great cooperation; easy to talk to and no question was too silly. During viewings, having someone like Wilfred by your side is invaluable; he asks the right questions and shows evidence of pre-research, both on the property and similar properties in the area. The bidding process is stressful, but Wilfred, by exuding calmness, consistently instilled confidence that things would work out. And they did! I have now found a wonderful place; exactly the situation I described during our first meeting.

Friendly and very experienced

Mr. Hemme is a friendly and highly experienced real estate agent. He expresses his honest opinion and expertise regarding the property so that as a buyer, you know exactly if the property fits your desires. Furthermore, he gives you all the space and time you need and helps you efficiently to find your dream home. Both I and family members have bought and sold our homes through Mr. Hemme. Thanks for the excellent service!

Highly knowledgeable, communicates excellently, and always reachable

If you’re looking for a real estate agent, then you’ve come to the right place with Hemme Makelaardij! Wilfred is highly knowledgeable, communicates excellently, and is always available. No question is too silly. Personal attention is taken to the next level with Wilfred. I started my search for a home three years ago as a single person. After countless viewings and rejections, I decided to look for a buyer’s agent. I eventually found Wilfred. Two weeks after our first contact, the offer on my dream home was accepted. At the time of writing, only 1.1% of single people in the Netherlands succeed in purchasing a home (source: Nu.nl). Thanks to Wilfred, I am among the 1.1% of singles who have bought a home. Without Wilfred, this would never have been possible. Wilfred, thank you very much for all the time and energy you’ve invested in me. I am eternally grateful to you!

Truly exceptional real estate agent

Lisette is truly exceptional as a real estate agent. From the moment I started working with her, I knew I was in good hands. She has this incredible ability to make you feel like you’re her only client, giving you undivided attention and support throughout the entire process. One of Lisette’s greatest strengths is her “take you by your hand” approach. She doesn’t just show you properties; she guides you through each viewing, pointing out both the highlights and potential drawbacks of each place. What I appreciated most about Lisette is her deep understanding of the market. She knows the ins and outs of the real estate world like the back of her hand, and her advice was always spot-on. She took the time to listen to my wishes and preferences, offering tailored recommendations based on her extensive experience. Thanks to Lisette’s expertise and dedication, I was able to find the perfect apartment in Amsterdam in just a month. And I know I’m not the only one who has benefited from her exceptional service. Several of my friends have also turned to Lisette for their real estate needs, and they’ve all had similarly positive experiences. Highly recommend!

Knowledge of the market in Amsterdam and Drenthe, along with a pleasant and personal approach!

Wilfred happened to cross our path, but what a star he turned out to be. I would definitely recommend him! It was great for us that he’s familiar with the market both in and around Amsterdam as well as in Drenthe and the surrounding area. He guided us through both the purchase and sale extremely well, not only professionally but also with his pleasant and personal approach.

Professional, patient, and very kind

Wilfred assisted us for many months. The search was difficult (we had many criteria + a difficult Amsterdam market), but he has always been professional, patient and very kind. He never gave up until we find what we really wanted. Thanks to his experience and knowledge, the bidding and the buying process went perfectly well. It’s difficult to find the right Makelaar, we fully recommend Wilfred!

We wanted to share our excellent experience

We had the absolute pleasure of working with Wilfred in our quest to find the perfect villa in Eindhoven. We wanted to share our outstanding experience, which was nothing short of extraordinary.

Wilfred’s dedication and unwavering commitment to understanding our needs and preferences set the tone for this incredible journey. What truly stood out was his innovative approach of sending us videos from every property he visited. This allowed us to tour homes virtually and gain comprehensive insights into each one.

Throughout the process, Wilfred’s professionalism and exceptional communication skills kept us well-informed and at ease. He patiently addressed all our questions and provided invaluable advice, making us feel confident with our choices.

In just a few short months, Wilfred helped us discover a breathtaking villa that exceeded our expectations. His dedication to ensuring we found the perfect home was truly remarkable. His service was exceptional in every sense.

As we settle into our new villa, we reflect on the incredible experience of working with Wilfred. His commitment to his clients and his passion for finding the right home are unparalleled.

When the time comes for us to explore the real estate market again, there is no doubt in our minds that we will turn to Wilfred. His expertise, professionalism, and genuine care for his clients make him a standout in the industry.

Thank you, Wilfred, for helping us find our dream home. We are thrilled with the outcome, and it’s all thanks to you.

Exactly what we were looking for

When selling our house, we didn’t want to rush into anything. We invited several real estate agents for a discussion, and Wilfred Hemme was exactly what we were looking for: very well-prepared, knowledgeable, experienced, and straight-to-the-point. No slick marketing talk or empty promises. And, importantly, a good sense of humor; selling a house can be stressful enough. The guidance was superb, and we could always rely on him throughout the entire process. Our house was ultimately sold very quickly for a good price. If we ever sell a house again, I know who to call.

Extremely grateful for the expert guidance!

My husband and I had the pleasure of working with Lisette Van Tilburg as our real estate agent for our recent home purchase. We came to Lisette with a tough situation – we needed a house ASAP since our lease was expiring in two months and we had nowhere to go after that. Lisette was upfront with us that it would be a tall task, especially given the crazy housing market in Amsterdam, but in the end she more than delivered.

Throughout the homebuying process, she expertly guided us through viewings, assessing properties, and ultimately making an offer and closing. As first time homebuyers who are also expats, we had many questions and Lisette was always happy and willing to answer. We especially appreciated her quick communication. We also felt she always had our best interests at heart and were never pressured to make offers that didn’t make sense for us.

In the end, our first offer was accepted after a little back and forth with the seller and we CLOSED on the perfect starter home for us in just under 7 weeks from our initial meeting with Lisette. This is even in spite of a hiccup with our mortgage provider, which she also navigated as a true professional. For what it’s worth, our home also assessed for higher than we paid, so having the instant equity made us feel we scored a great deal.

We are still in disbelief that she was able to make this home purchase happen so quickly and are so grateful for her expertise guiding us along the way. Highly recommend!

The communication went very smoothly

The communication went very smoothly. A WhatsApp group was created with the real estate agent, where my girlfriend and I are both members. Together, we discussed various houses and went through the entire process. No question was too much, no viewing was too much. Tasks we had were already completed, or there had already been thought about them, and that was immediately explained. Wilfred Hemme is a proactive real estate agent who takes you through the entire process. He thinks along with you, advises you, and also honestly tells you whether something is wise or not. Yes, it’s a lot of money, but it’s really worth every penny.

What an amazing experience!

On behalf of my parents Sjon and Dinie van den Bosch.
Our experience with Wilfred Hemme is nothing short of fantastic. Very expert and personal tailor-made advice. Always time for a call and always time to come by in person for an autograph or just to explain something in Jip&Janneke language😉. If you want personal and honest advice with a human touch, then Hemme Van Tilburg Makelaars & Appraisers is the right place for you. Wilfred thanks for all the good care, we wouldn’t have made it without you. We will meet in Meppel. Greetings from Zwolle Sjon and Dinie van den Bosch.
