Overall very positive
Paco has proven to be very reactive and for sure knowledgeable, guiding us through this complex process and hectic dutch housing market. We appreciated his support, calm and guidance. He followed us from house visit, providing us insight on market value, up to signature at the notary answering every single questions we had, coordinating with seller agent everything, with our financial advisor and supported us contract a notary.
We appreciated his help on the bidding offer and is support winning the bid, his insights and attention point on purchase agreement. We untrusted him with our project and he took the lead.
Very happy with this experience and would recommend. Without him it would have been a lot more difficult and stressful.
Thank you Paco.

Amazing experience!

I worked with Lisa van Meurs and had a truly great experience. Even though I approached Walter Living on very short notice, Lisa immediately prioritized my case and handled everything with impressive speed and professionalism.

She arranged the communication with the seller, coordinated the appraisal report, and set up the technical inspection extremely quickly, making the whole process feel effortless on my side. Everything was organized, clear, and moved forward without me ever needing to chase anything. It was a huge relief during what could have been a stressful moment.

You can tell Walter Living really understands the process and cares about supporting clients, not just completing tasks. Lisa made everything smooth, convenient, and reliable from start to finish.

Definitely recommend Walter Living (and Lisa!) if you’re looking for fast, proactive, and supportive guidance during your home-buying process :)

Do not hesitate to work with Walter!

Highly recommended ! The team is responsive, professional, offering a modern approach based on analysis of market data. Our agent Lisa was great, she guided us through each step of the process supporting us with advice. She helped us analyse pros and cons of each property, managed contacts with the seller’s agents to clarify all our questions and helped us decide how much to bid. Our second bid was successful, this saved us a lot of time and money considering the challenging market, especially for expats.

Great experience, super recommended!

This was a great experience! Paco was extremely supportive, and he made sure to be present in every step of the process. Being expats, buying an apartment was a daunting process, but we always felt supported till the day we moved to our new place. The offer was really competitive (we did win, even though someone else offered a higher bid). Every step was clearly explained to us, and we had all the video calls we needed to evacuate our questions. Thanks so much Paco and people from Walter Living!

The Best: Emmely van Grinsven

Emmely is simply the best! She is extremely patient with all the process, from the beginning until the end. She always have a way to motivate us to keep going, because buying a house is totally an overwhelming process. Still, she never stops making us believe that the dream is possible to achieve.
She is very transparent with everything, costs, service and a big plus is the 1000% attention she has with all the necessary steps to buy a property.
All I can do is to thank her for being the best, for being so nice, patient and understanding with all this tiring process. If you ever need assistance on acquiring a property in the Netherlands, doesn't matter if within Randstad or outside from it, simply choose the best, and I can assure that Emmely is simply the best in the country!

Walter Living is the way to go!

My wife and I recently had the pleasure of working with Walter Living, and I can't recommend them highly enough. As a data-centric agency focusing on analysis, negotiation, and advice, they exceeded my expectations in every aspect. Our experience was particularly outstanding thanks to Paco, the agent I dealt with directly.

Paco's professionalism and expertise made a significant impact on our journey. What impressed me the most was Paco's reliability. He consistently delivered on his promises, even taking the initiative to have discussions with my mortgage advisor to ensure everything ran smoothly. This level of commitment provided me with great confidence in his abilities and the outcomes we achieved.

Lastly, I firmly believe that the service they provided was worth every penny. The value derived from their expertise and the results they produced were impressive. If you're looking for an agent who is professional, friendly, reliable, and truly focused on data-driven results, Walter Living is the way to go!

Professional experts, useful tool

I had a great experience working with Walter living. First of all It’s very useful tool to find out what price is good for a property you want to buy. Also we had 2 sessions about 2 houses in Eindhoven with WL experts. The second house we won with the help of Hester. It was the second house we were bidding on, and we won it! We paid for bidding service, and I can definitely recommend it — Hester helped us not only with the bidding, but also with all the processes after winning a bid, giving some tips how to save some money on buyers costs.

For conclusion, Walter Living experts are really professional and responsible. Highly recommend their services!

Walter Living was a breeze

Walter Living was a breeze in the process of looking for and buying a house. The fact we could get their valuation on the houses we were interested in (and immediately see if we could afford them or not in this overbidding market) was super helpful! Saved us a lot of unfruitful visits.
Seeing as well data of neighborhoods and past sales was great to adapt our expectations!
We did 5 bids, which I think it's quite standard and every time the bidding process was very calm, quick and we felt prepared, always calling our advisor to discuss and align a winning strategy :)
We worked with Paco and Emmely, both great to work with! In the end we won a bid with Emmely and she walked us through the whole process brilliantly, always there to support, coordinate and ensure everything went well.
It was a pleasure!

We started our house search with Walter…

We started our house search with Walter Living, and honestly, we couldnt have asked for a better experience. Within just three weeks, we won the bid on our first house in the Netherlands. We still can't believe how smoothly everything went

We purchased full package from them and our walterliving expert, Paco, was absolutely fantastic. He responded to every email quickly and kept everything organized, which really put our minds at ease. When buying a house in a new country, there are so many unknowns, but Paco made the whole process feel manageable. What really impressed us was how Walterliving and our mortgage advisor worked together. At one point, we were even traveling outside Europe, and they handled everything on our behalf without missing a beat. We went into this thinking it would be incredibly stressful and complicated, but it turned out to be surprisingly straightforward.

I'd highly recommend Walter Living and specifically Paco. He made what could have been an overwhelming experience actually enjoyable.

Walter Living is a great tool when you are looking to buy a place.
