After checking a few expat‑focused agencies, we were still fairly clueless about how to make an offer, what price to aim for, and which home suited us within the area. Fortunately, a family member recommended J&B Makelaars through the South African expat groups, and we quickly got in touch with Bridgette and her team. From the very first contact, Bridgette offered incredible advice and support during the viewings and purchase, calming almost all of our fears about taking the leap in the Netherlands, even amid market turbulence.\n\nBeyond the smooth signing and notary stages, the two main reasons to choose J&B Makelaars are their bidding guidance and constant client support. At no point—from viewing to signing—did we feel, as young buyers, that our agent was merely in it for the fee. That level of dedication is rare for South Africans accustomed to the apathy and buyer side disregard common back home. Bridgette, Michelle, and the rest of the team supported us every step of the way, giving us confidence to close the deal while saving on bid amounts and other costs. Moreover, their mortgage broker referral was excellent.\n\nOverall, we wholeheartedly recommend J&B Makelaars. They have been a pivotal part of securing our lovely new home, and we’d gladly share more details with anyone interested in hearing about our wonderful experience.","2025-10-23T18:59:51.738+00:00",{"reviewer_name":261,"rating":113,"review_text":262,"review_date":263},"Charlene Du Preez","We recently bought a house with the help of J&B Makelaars, and we are truly grateful for the amazing support we received from Reinhard.

She handled the matter gracefully, allowing me to share my experience while genuinely listening—not just to reply, but to understand and rectify the issue.\n\nContrary to my initial assumption, she was not aware of what had happened and was appalled by my interaction with the agent. Fortunately, this agent is no longer with J&B Makelaars.\n\nI was also refunded a significant portion of the payment I made. I understand that some work was done by the agents that required payment, and I appreciate this kind gesture.\n\nI can honestly say I am pleased with how the situation was handled and with Bridgette’s transparency and honesty. A great company shows its character in how it responds to negative situations, and that deserves respect.\n\nI can confidently recommend J&B Makelaars.\n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\n\nOriginal review:\nExpensive mistake—avoid working with J&B Makelaars at all costs!\n\nFrom the beginning, they sent me irrelevant property listings. It quickly became clear they weren’t going to help me secure a property, and I found myself doing most of the work—sending them listings, following up on applications, and chasing updates on viewings.\n\nUltimately, the property I secured came through my neighbours, not J&B Makelaars, yet I was still charged €1,400. Given their minimal effort, this fee felt completely unjustified and unethical.\n\nThroughout the process, communication was poor, and the agent was unprofessional and disrespectful. He was forceful and repeatedly pressured me to commit to properties I didn’t want to commit to, even resorting to fearmongering tactics by saying I’d have nowhere to stay if I didn’t accept their suggestions.\n\nThe property owner was aware of this behaviour but never intervened. This lack of accountability for such unprofessional behaviour is unacceptable. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere for a more ethical and reliable agency.","2025-01-09T13:30:23.047+00:00",{"reviewer_name":271,"rating":113,"review_text":272,"review_date":273},"Layan Abdul Shakoor","A beyond fantastic experience with J&B in securing a rental contract prior to my arrival.
