Our team

Our team consists of specialized buying brokers and a strong back office, all passionate about brokerage. Meet our colleagues here!

Jordi Hoogendoorn – purchasing agent

Jordi is your real estate agent in Rotterdam! Jordi started in brokerage at the same time as Thomas. They have always been in good contact. After several years, Jordi made the switch to banking. He has worked at several banks, including as a mortgage broker. After several years, Jordi decides he wants to leave corporate business behind. He wanted to think with me, move quickly and be more responsible. His background as a real estate agent beckoned, so Jordi sought contact with Thomas again. Now Jordi is committed daily to helping people looking for a home in the Utrecht and Rotterdam area.

Thomas van Elteren

Thomas was born and raised in Lopik (near Utrecht). Growing up in a family of contractors, he was on the scaffolding from childhood. While studying architecture, management and brokerage, he was introduced to this beautiful profession. After college, Thomas worked in a real estate office for 6 years, getting all his degrees and learning the ropes. He still applies his knowledge of structural engineering daily in his work as a purchasing agent. In 2016, he founded Thomas the buying agent. What began as a one-man business is now a cozy growing team operating under Thomas’ name in the Utrecht and Rotterdam area.

Helga – office manager

Are you calling our office? Chances are you’ll get Helga on the phone! And fun news: she is always up for a chat or a good joke. Sitting still? No, get on with it! Helga plans the viewings, prepares the deeds of sale and in between also answers all kinds of questions from (potential) buyers and sellers. With her more than twelve years of experience in real estate brokerage, Helga has everything under control at our office in no time.

Moniek – office manager

Through her years of experience in brokerage, Moniek brings a mountain of knowledge with her. For years, she has been supporting brokers and helping clients along the way. The great thing about Moniek, besides cheerfulness and her tremendous customer focus, is that she is always thinking about how things can be done better and faster. She never sits still and always wants to improve. She is a real asset to our team and together with Helga she rocks the office and is a very nice first impression!

Moniek loves to move. She moved from Maarssen to ‘t Zand in Leidsche Rijn, then to Linschoten and finally Nieuwerbrug aan den Rijn of all places. So definitely a connection to Utrecht AND moving.
