We had a great experience with Walter Living, especially thanks to Emmely, our buying agent. She was professional, responsive, and very attentive throughout the entire process. Emmely took the time to understand our needs, explained everything clearly, and made the whole experience smooth and stress-free. We really appreciated her support and would highly recommend working with her

We bought our dream apartment with the help of Walter Living and Emmely! The process was extremely smooth, and Walter Living’s data platform is very easy to use and immensely helpful to get essential transparency on the housing market. On top of that, Emmely was super responsive, supportive, and very knowledgeable, particularly about the market in Amsterdam. Since it was our first purchase and we are both expats, our many questions were answered with a lot of patience and clarity. We always appreciated hearing Emmely's honest opinion and advice on how to proceed with our next steps. We could almost feel that she was just as excited about the process as us, but she took us by the hand to make sure every decision was well thought through. In the end, we saved a lot of money because of her expertise. Thank you again for all your support, we are extremely grateful and happy with our new home! ❤️ Plus: Big shout out also to Paco, who covered while Emmely was out and did a just as amazin

I’m really glad that I chose Walter Living, and that the expert who guided us was Emmely. She was super helpful and always friendly. We saved money during the bidding thanks to her recommendations. She was always available and explained everything that worried us. I’ve already recommended them to our friends and will recommend them to anyone interested in this kind of service.

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 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!

I had an excellent experience working with Emmely. She supported me throughout the entire bidding process — coordinating with the selling agent, advising on bidding strategy, and ultimately helping me secure the property successfully. After the purchase, she proactively negotiated with the seller to fix all the issues found during the house inspection, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. She also guided me step by step through everything — from the house inspection and notary process to arranging internet, electricity, and the final inspection before moving in. Her communication was always clear, fast, and professional. I truly felt taken care of at every step. Highly recommended!
