We are writing this letter to recommend Sharon from Swanevelde for her exceptional support as a real estate buying agent during our recent home search in The Hague. As an international relocating family, we were looking for a long-term home in a new country, a new city, and a housing market we did not fully understand. From the very beginning, Sharon proved to be the ideal partner to guide us through this important and unfamiliar process.
We first met Sharon when she was showing a property we happened to be visiting. Her transparency, honest approach, and deep knowledge of the local market immediately stood out. She communicated with us clearly in excellent English, which made every step straightforward and reassuring. We also appreciated the excellent price–quality ratio of Swanevelde’s services, and the impression—quickly confirmed—that Sharon combined honesty, proactivity, responsiveness, and very strong negotiation and analytical skills.
From the moment we engaged with her, Sharon took full ownership of the process. Over the course of about two months, she helped us filter suitable properties, organised and attended every visit, and consistently warned us about red flags or potential pitfalls that we would not have noticed ourselves. Her evaluations were always thorough. She compared WOZ values, examined past purchase prices and market indexation, assessed renovation quality, and estimated potential costs and risks. This level of due diligence allowed us to make well-informed decisions at every stage.
Sharon also played a key role in leading negotiations. Her guidance was instrumental in helping us secure the house we wanted together with favourable conditions. She supported us through the technical inspection, advised us on notary selection, and was even present during the property valuation for the mortgage. Throughout the entire process, she demonstrated patience, clarity, and a genuine commitment to our best interests.
Thanks to Sharon’s expertise and dedication, we not only found the right home, but we also avoided risks, saved money, and moved much faster than we expected. For anyone searching for a property in The Hague—also international families or anyone unfamiliar with the Dutch housing market—I cannot recommend her highly enough. Working with Sharon was an extremely positive experience, and we are sincerely grateful for everything she has done for us.
Sincerely,
Alejandra and Tomas
