Welcome to J&B Makelaars

Moving home is about far more than buying or renting a property. It is about starting a new chapter, building a future and making one of the biggest financial decisions you may ever make.

Whether you are relocating from abroad, purchasing your first home, investing in property or preparing to sell, navigating the Dutch property market can feel exciting, overwhelming and, at times, uncertain.

At J&B Makelaars, we are here to make that journey simpler.

As a registered Dutch real estate agency and proud member of Vastgoed Nederland, we combine professional expertise with genuine personal support. With more than 10 years of experience helping expats and over 20 years of Dutch real estate expertise, we guide our clients with honesty, clarity and care from their first enquiry through to collecting the keys.

Our goal is simple: to help you make informed decisions and move forward with confidence.

Who We Are

Every client and every property journey is unique.

Some clients are relocating for a new career. Others are moving their family to the Netherlands, investing for the future or selling a home they've loved for many years.

Whatever your circumstances, having the right professional by your side makes all the difference.

At J&B Makelaars, real estate is not simply one of our services—it is our profession. We combine extensive knowledge of the Dutch property market with first-hand experience supporting international clients, giving us a unique understanding of both the practical and personal aspects of moving home.

From negotiations and legal procedures to working with mortgage advisers, surveyors, valuers and notaries, we coordinate every stage of the process while ensuring you always understand what comes next.

We believe that informed clients make confident decisions, which is why we communicate clearly, explain everything in plain English and always put your interests first.
