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!

As an interior design couple, selling your very first, jointly renovated apartment is a slightly different story than the average. Emotion and commitment were paramount, and Maxime and Tristan were therefore quite discerning in their choice of real estate agent. A pleasant and professional introduction to Isabeau was a given: "From the very first moment, the information and expertise were excellent, and afterward, the feedback on appointments was very thorough and punctual. We really appreciated the phone call after each viewing. You put a lot of effort into decorating and preparing for a viewing, so it's a real treat when the real estate agent handles it accordingly."

It seemed like an impossible quest: a two-bedroom apartment with a small garden in Amsterdam. From the very beginning, we'd always preferred Amsterdam Noord. We'd been searching for our first home for quite some time when a friend connected us with Susan. We hit it off right from the start.

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.
