Reviews of Housing Services in Eindhoven
Rented a house from them for over 2 years. When we notified them we were leaving, they came to do a pre-inspection and final inspection. After that, we didnt hear from them for a month. We asked them what would happen about the deposit. They started charging us for all kinds that wasn’t mentioned in either reports and even things that were already visible on the check in report! Still didn’t receive our €3000 deposit back from them. Stay away!
Don’t rent from these cowboys
Unfortunately, despite all the warnings, reviews and news articles (Program Kassa) I made the mistake of renting an apartment through Stoit Group. It already started extremely badly with the delivery of the apartment: non-working central heating boiler, very dirty (attached photos), broken blinds and non-working ventilation system. Following that, Stoit also sent an unjustified invoice for mediation fees (€1,200), which I refused to pay. Stoit also did not adhere to the legal deadline of 14 days for refunding the deposit. This took over 7 weeks(!). You only receive the deposit after they make an illegal deduction for damages. In my case it was for lime scale (which is not seen as a damage by law) and an invoice where everything is redacted. In short; be warned about, Stoit is known for it and the Municipality of Eindhoven is aware of it!
Our experience with Amber was very positive. She is professional and responsive in communication. Highly recommended.
As already posted in several google reviews about how Goeth Vastgoed tries to unfairly swallow all or major portion of tenant's security deposit, I am one another victim of Goeth Vastgoed. I am an expat and completely agree to one of the reviews posted in google reviews about Goeth Vastgoed Eindhoven: “Foreign tenants are vulnerable in the Netherlands but this agency has a reputation for not returning deposits”. They deducted 876 euros (cleaning of 8.5 hours for 257 euros and full apartment repaint of 589 euros) from my security deposit of 1278 euros. I was also never given any time to fix any issues that they found in their inspection. I lived in the apartment for 12 months and I cleaned the apartment myself before moving out (except kitchen chimney cover). I had asked them for their cleaning services before which they had mentioned as hourly service only and never mentioned about anything such as ‘final cleaning for 8.5 hours’. I later cleaned the house myself and informed them on email on the day of leaving itself that even if they would need to do any extra cleaning it won’t be for more than 1 hour of cleaning which was proven by their inspection pictures also but they somehow spent 8 and half hours in cleaning the ‘already cleaned’ apartment and charged me 257 euros for the same. Also, regarding full repaint of whole apartment, the post-inspection pictures shows just three spots on three walls where a repaint was needed but they decided to repaint whole apartment and charged 589 euros on me. This is a scam that this agency plays to snatch the security deposit away from foreign tenants. I repeatedly kept asking them for the reasons behind the need to 1> clean the apartment for 8.5 hours after I already cleaned it, and 2> repaint the ‘whole’ apartment. They sent back pictures that they took during post inspection and “none” of the pictures showed either 1> any need to clean for 8.5 hours(instead of atmost 1 hour), or 2> the need to repaint the whole apartment. They sent me the invoice of whole-apartment repaint but that also does not prove the need to repaint the whole apartment instead of fixing those 3 spots. Please run away from this agency if you want to save your hard earned money from getting snatched away unfairly.
By far the WORST HOUSING EXPERIENCE I ever had in my life !! The house was in really poor conditions and there were mice everywhere in the kitchen, sometimes even coming in my room. As you can see from the attached pictures, it was full of mouse feces nearby the microwave in the kitchen, even after cleaning. Once I collected so many mouse feces in the hall that I could start making statistics on it....Irony apart, no one should live in such a way, especially in the Netherlands. The room itself was fair, although it was often cold and not well isolated for sound. The agency took advantage of the fact that I couldn't visit the place and posted only photos of the room, not of the disgusting kitchen and bathroom that were coming with. I kept complaining, but the situation remained basically the same for the whole duration of the 6-months contract that I could not interrupt, even on those poor conditions. I strongly recommend not to trust this agency, even more if you are an expat since it will be an awful first experience. Feel free to contact me for any extra details.
Had a great experience with this company. Daan was very helpful and my room is really nice. I would recommend My Housing to others!
I was very suprised by the service of this company. Daan really made me feel welcome when I just moved to the Netherlands! He answered all my questions very patiently. Lovely house as well!!
Daan van MyHousing hanteert een zeer professionele benadering wanneer het gaat om de verhuur van mijn appartementen. Hij is doortastend, flexibel en inventief, waardoor ik gerust mijn beheer in zijn handen laat.
Daan zorgt ervoor dat mijn studentenhuis altijd volledig bezet is!
Vijf sterren dubbel en dwars verdiend! :)
Best company for good quality housings!
Door de snelle en goede service kwamen al heel snel het juiste huis tegen wat ik zocht. Aanrader
Daan of MyHousing did a fantastic job helping me move to Eindhoven ! His customer service meets the highest standards and I would definately recommend him and his company to others!
Mijn persoonlijke voorkeuren wat betreft wonen werden door MyHousing goed omgezet naar een prachtige woning. Complimenten.
Everything done as it is supposed to be done! Great company.
Dear Angela, we are surprised with your comment especially since we did not hear from you before. Please contact our agency, so we can try to solve the issue. Thank you in advance for your feedback HousingXL Eindhoven.
When you want to pay a lot of money for having a room, perfect! THe agency fee (for doing what?) amounts a one month rent plux taxes. And .. when there's something wrong in your room or the house, they don't like to fix it, sorry: they don't want to pay for it, like old pipes that flood or a weekend without electricity (sorry) and so on. When you leave, you don't get back your deposit within the 4 weeks! They want you tot forget it. The people at the office treat you disrespectful. They constantly have other excuses not to pay back the deposit.
As a student I came in Eindhoven for a internship and use Rostvast services to find a student room. With there help I was able to simply arrange an housing arrangement by mail and have just to sign my contract on arrival. They were kind and open on any questions. I cut out just one star because of the lack of an English version of the contract and that i couldn't get my first choice because of the website not always up-to-date so contact by mail is needed to see if an housing is really available. Everything else was just fine.
When I first moved to Eindhoven, I had a very bad experience with a different housing agency. I needed to change housing very quickly and Daan did an amazing job of making that possible. He was flexible in scheduling my viewing time and stayed open late to let me sign my contract after normal working hours. The room I found through Daan was in excellent condition and I had a great stay there. Whenever there were any small issues in the house, Daan was always willing to find a way to help. He takes the time to get to know the the tenants he works with, and you can tell he really cares about making your stay good. I would definitely recommend MyHousing to anyone moving to Eindhoven.
The staffs look down foreigner.
Just moved to an apartment on July 1st 2015 through rots vast, still in a discovery phase what's in and what's not... will give a feedback after a week.
Thanks Rots-Vast Eindhoven for helping me find an apartment. I was new to the city and you guys (special mention Bianca) went out of the way to first provide me with a list of options and then pick me and drop me back at the office for the viewings. Great work and thanks for the fantastic support.
We found our home easily with the help of Rost-Vast. It's quick and efficient. They also have office located in downtown Eindhoven. Very convinient. Bianca helped us and she is really friendly. Their service is strongly recommended.
From me and my team. Thanks for your know how and understanding.
Thanks for helping us. Good service!
Friendly, reliable and fast processes. Definitely recommendable. Remark: Better coordination with Philips for students is necessary regarding the brokerage fee. Hence, 4 stars.
Rost-Vast helped me to find the perfect place two times already. The team is super nice and helpul. Thank you Rost-Vast.
Rots-Vast really helped me to find the ideal houe in an ideal location. Very student friendly and helping staff ..
Me and my boyfriend started renting an apartment through My Housing in October and we are very happy with the service of My Housing. Daan helped us finding a nice apartment and was very friendly. Also during our stay the last months he is very helpful and we have very good contact with My Housing. We recommend it to everyone looking for a nice house with a good price and good service!
Quick response, friendly people at the agency. Good agency to reach out to for housing related queries.
It was very nice experience to interact with the people at Rots-Vast Groep Eindhoven. The whole process took less than 1 hour and every thing was very smooth. Would recomend this to my friends and collegues.
I had a very good experience with Rots Vast in getting the apartment. You guys rock. Thanks Emmy for all the help
Thank you for your help during our house searching. You were very active and efficient. You don't hesitate to plan visits late in the evening. Thanks you
We werden snel en adequaat geholpen, binnen een dag de bezichtigingen, heel prettig en professioneel personeel.
It was a nice experience with the company. Joyce was really helpful to show teh house on Saturday and make all arrangements necesssary. Cheers, Vijay
I was reffered to by a work collegue who had found an apartment through them within a few weeks. I had just moved over from Ireland for work and was new to the city and its surrounding areas. I found the company very helpful and was very understanding to our needs and what we required from an apartment. we were put with one employee and i found that more personal and was able to answer all the questions we had about living here,
The company was very helpful and efficient in find an apartment to suit my needs. I had an apartment within a day and moved in within a week. The staff were professional and helpful.
The staff is responsive, reliable and very helpful. I would definitely recommend to contact Rots-Vast if you are searching for your new home.
My experience with Rots-Vast is good. I have been settled by Rots-Vast Eindhoven, Breda and The Hague for work. They work very professional for expats and are very helpfull in searching the right accomodation.
Rots-Vast is the only office in Eindhoven where you can also visit after working hours and saturdays. This is good for expats in the region. Good service and enough Rental houses and apartments.
Dear Tenant, I am really surprised with this comment. Please contact our office and we can try to solve your problem. For now I don't have an address or name. Thanks. Rots-Vast Eindhoven.
I had a really bad experience with this agency, they provided me a room in a really messy and awful appartment, and they took a very high agency fee also the room price was really bad, they didnt show me the way to the appartment just gave me the key and once they had the money that was it. I wouldnt recommend it to anyone.
I rent my room from MyHousing company. When I was looking for a room to rent in Eindhoven Daan was very helpful and attentive. He sent me some pictures of the room before I visited the house. Daan is very professional and has friendly approach. I'm very pleased with the service the company provides and I always recommend it to all my friends.
Ik huur mijn studio al een tijdje via My Housing en zit hier nog steeds goed op mijn plek. Daan luisterde naar mijn wensen als huurder en zocht daar een gepaste woonruimte bij. Hij is flexibel, betrokken en doet 'net dat beetje extra moeite' voor zijn huurders/ pandeigenaren. Waar andere verhuurbedrijven stoppen, gaat Daan nog een stapje verder en dat is de kracht van My Housing. Ik ben zeer tevreden met deze service en zou iedereen My Housing aanraden!
Daan found me an apartment in August. During that time I was in Greece. Daan was able to help us with everything through internet. I trusted him from the first moment as he always behave as a professional. He helped me with so many things. Even more than I could ever expect. I highly recommend Daan for services associated with finding a nice place to live
Ik heb onlangs een nieuw appartement gevonden via Daan en ben erg tevreden hierover. Ondanks dat de verhuurder in Engeland woont, heeft Daan alles redelijk spoedig weten te regelen. Hij denkt graag mee en ik vond het ook erg fijn dat hij ook op de vroege avond beschikbaar is, zodat je geen vrij hoeft te pakken van je werk. Dit zie je toch niet veel bij ander makelaars.
Daan rented out our apartment twice by now. Although his company is relatively new he managed to perform like he is in business for many years. He advises in the best interest for renters and home owners. He is honest and points out improvements that can be maid. This advise results in satisfied renters and reliable candidates for home owners. He does his paperwork right, doesn’t make false promises and the promises he does make he will live up to. Daan is a professional with a personal approach. I can strongly recommend his services!
Ik huur al twee jaar via Daan Kuil en ben momenteel met zijn hulp op zoek naar een nieuwe woning. Zijn flexibiliteit en persoonlijke benadering waardeer ik enorm. Daan weet van mij als klant wat ik wil, en houdt me heel goed op de hoogte van nieuwe woningen. Hij denkt echt met zijn klanten mee en is nooit te beroerd om een stapje extra te zetten of een omweggetje te maken om zijn klanten optimale service te bezorgen. En nee, daar betaal je dus niet eens het driedubbele bedrag voor!
Ik ken Daan al een tijd persoonlijk. Zijn persoonlijkheid brengt hij over naar zijn bedrijf My Housing. Altijd vriendelijk en geïnteresseerd in zijn klanten. Moet je overdag werken en heb je 'savonds pas tijd om een appartement te bezichtingen? Geen probleem bij My Housing. En dat is nou nét dat extra beetje service!
