Home.Made helped us land an awesome apartment in Amsterdam on a very tight timeline, and i was able to move in as soon as I arrived. There is no way we could have made the move to Amsterdam without their help.
Alejandro Varsky
Home.Made was just incredible and I could not have moved to the Netherlands without them. I was based in Zurich and they organized very professional video-views for me to see in covid times. But that wasn't all: since we arrived they have delivered tons of great tips and helped us set up services and utilities. I would totally recommend people to use their services. Their advice and knowledge has been invaluable to us.

Sherianne is determined to make your move as seamless as possible. She foresees the things that might make a move hard, and was able to help prioritise what needed to be sorted out when. On the day we landed, Sherianne was a lifesaver in shipping over simcards so we were connected where the internet had let us down. This service can really assist your transition. Thanks for being so understanding and supportive!
Paulina Kozuchowska
The Amsterdam housing market felt like an impossible challenge for us, and there were moments when we felt completely lost. But everything changed when we found Sherianne and Home.Made. From the very beginning, Sherianne took the time to understand us, our needs, and our dreams. Even during the most difficult moments, Sherianne was calm, reassuring and always found a way forward. Thanks to her dedication and care, we now have our dream home. We couldn't be more grateful for everything she's done and wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in search of a place to call home!

Sherianne at Home.Made took the time to understand my needs, and provided a stellar service. She provided the highest quality service, was quick to respond, provided expert advice and catered to my needs. If you want a no fuss, non stressful and exciting process .... then look no further! This really felt like a Home.Made touch!
