I am Carla van der Linde. I live in Zwolle with my husband, but I’m originally from sunny South Africa. I moved to the Netherlands in 2023 and have been enjoying the Dutch life ever since. I am my happiest outdoors and try to spend as much time outside as possible, whether it is by cycling, hiking or enjoying a picnic. I am obsessed with sunsets and dog cuddles. I’ve been working in the financial compliance industry since 2018. What I enjoy most is analysing people’s situations and finding the best solutions for their needs. Buying a home in a new country can feel overwhelming. I’ve recently been there myself. As a fellow expat, I know what it’s like to deal with unfamiliar rules, new systems, and endless questions. That is exactly when I realized how passionate I am about helping fellow expats navigate through their mortgage journey. My goal is simple: to provide clear, honest guidance so you can choose a mortgage that truly works for you.
