Six years ago, during a working visit to Amsterdam, he fell in love with the city, and that romance continued happily when he moved here two years later. After years of successful business here, he was able to leave renting behind and buy something. Not only for himself, but certainly also for his cat, Gijsje. And that they are now the owners of something beautiful and wonderful is partly, if not primarily, due to Heather's expert advice and her timely intervention when a wrong choice threatened to be made. With a caring and steady hand, they were guided through everything, a financial disaster was averted, and all other obstacles were overcome. Thank you, Heather!

It was a short but intense search, with our Heather, for a house with a garden in a nice neighborhood, including a dog park just around the corner. And with this "opportunity," visit number four, it was bingo. Garden! Park! Neighborhood! And a tree!
They were guided through every detail regarding the possibilities and permission to thoroughly renovate the house, and she also helped them with all aspects of financing, the right approach to selling the old place, and, last but not least, maintaining peace of mind. And now that the renovation is underway, Charlotte and Ian look back fondly on all that wonderful support, Heather's helping hand from start to finish.

Chantal had done her due diligence and hadn't approached us lightly. When we arrived, well-prepared, the choice for her was clear and a logical one. During the sales support period, she experienced our firm as steadfast, decisive, and a strong communicator as a team. On top of that, Isabeau's compelling passion for staging and image was precisely the extra effort that made everything a success. Now, Chantal is continuing her adventurous life elsewhere, but looks back on this period with satisfaction and gratitude.

Working with Carla van den Brink Real Estate Agents feels familiar and natural. Like us, they are true Amsterdam entrepreneurs, with a heart for the city and its people. Our family has been connected to Amsterdam for generations. In 1970, we opened Arnold Cornelis pastry shop on Van Baerlestraat, and later on Elandsgracht as well. Since then, we have welcomed Amsterdammers to moments of celebration in various stages of life. This is also what has connected Carla van den Brink to Amsterdammers since 1979. Both are family businesses with the same passion for craftsmanship, personal attention, and connecting generations. Leny Cornelis sold her house with the Carla van den Brink team. We were also able to count on them when finding a new home for Linda and Maaik. Linda's daughter, Esmée, now lives on Van Baerlestraat again. Thus, the circle of generations in Amsterdam is complete. For us, Carla van den Brink Real Estate Agents is more than just a real estate agency. They know the city inside and out and think along with you at every stage of life, in a way that truly suits Amsterdam.
