Joyce Ruijsbroek
I have been working in real estate for almost 25 years. For the first 12 years, I worked at a large estate agency as executive secretary for two appraisers. At two other brokerage offices, I had different roles but valuations were always part of it.
I have been working at Jacobus Recourt as Appraisals Coordinator for over three years now. My job is to make the entire valuation process run as smoothly as possible. With the best possible preparation of the files, I ensure that my colleagues can fully focus on the often complex valuations.
It is very satisfying when the whole process runs smoothly and both customers and colleagues are happy. There is hard work at Recourt but the good working atmosphere ensures that I never go to work reluctantly!
Jan-Willem Klerkx
Klerkx Brokerage
Working as an Estate Agent from 1990 and as an appraiser of Commercial Real Estate from 2000. If I had not started as an estate agent, I would have become a lawyer or a journalist.
Am working within Jacobus Recourt mainly as a valuer. The great thing about appraising is that many disciplines come together here, including the sustainable aspects (ESG) of real estate. In short, as an appraiser you hear a lot about the many aspects of real estate.
Also partly active as a real estate agent Commercial Real Estate to keep sufficient feeling with the transaction market. This benefits the quality of valuations.
I like to spend my free time reading, eating good food in good company and occasionally going on holidays where skiing, mountain hiking and city trips are my favourites.

After the Hogere Hotelschool in The Hague, I worked in the hotel industry for a while, worked at the ABN AMRO BANK as account manager business for SMEs and after a few years switched to real estate brokerage. For over 25 years I have been working at Jacobus Recourt in the position of business broker and since 2000 director/DGA/owner.
I was sworn in as an estate agent in 2000, to which my RICS membership has since been added.
My work mainly consists of renting and buying commercial real estate in the Haaglanden region. I am also a lecturer in business brokerage at the Academy for Real Estate and a board member of The Hague New Centre.
