We used WalterLiving to inform our bidding decisions for an apartment in Amsterdam and could not be any happier with the results we obtained!

Hi Stephen, Thank you so much for the opportunity to provide feedback about Walter Living, and especially about Lisa. To be honest, I have been looking forward to this moment for quite some time. Our journey started around July or August 2025 when we began searching for a home. Although I know Amstelveen quite well, I had very little understanding of the local housing market. Over the course of our search, Lisa became my go to person. She was practically on my WhatsApp speed dial because I was constantly asking questions, seeking advice, and looking for reassurance. We submitted many bids, lost many bids, and even went through a particularly disappointing situation early on when we thought we had secured a house, only to lose it afterwards. Throughout it all, Lisa was incredibly supportive. She was patient, calm, knowledgeable, and always willing to help. Looking back, I think there were moments where I might have lost patience myself, but she never did. One thing I especially appreciated was that we did not really know what we wanted at the start. We thought we were looking for one type of home, but over time our priorities changed. Despite all the changes, questions, and uncertainty, Lisa remained understanding and supportive. She even talked me out of overspending on more than one occasion, which I truly appreciated. In fact, after the purchase was completed, I almost missed our regular conversations because we had been in touch so often throughout the process. Walter Living was a great fit for us. The experience was educational as well as practical. Even though this was already my third home purchase in the Netherlands, I learned a tremendous amount. What made the difference was Lisa’s approach. She never made me feel inexperienced or uninformed. Instead, she treated me as a peer and involved me in the process every step of the way. I would wholeheartedly recommend Walter Living, particularly to expats who are trying to navigate the Dutch housing market. Having someone like Lisa in your corner makes a huge difference. Thank you again, and please pass on my sincere appreciation to Lisa. She was absolutely fantastic!

I used Walter to buy two different properties in 2022 and 2026, both without a real estate agent. It does a great job in pulling data that is either not really available or available only behind a paywall, organizing that data and providing great insights to understand the market dynamics. While there are still nuances of the housing market, Walter does a great job in empowering buyers by removing information asymmetry that favors sellers and real estate agents. I always recommend Walter to friends that are going through the same process.

great online makelaar with numerical insights

For a (relatively) minimal investment we were able to get an accurate bid price. Bonus: seeing all the house for sale/sold in the neighbourhood also gave us inspiration ideas for our house as we could quickly find the relevant Funda ads.
