Making a local impact with global real estate knowledge

No city is as vibrant as Amsterdam. From the Zuidas to the historic city center: transformation and development opportunities continue to arise. Our Amsterdam experts are happy to help you take advantage of these opportunities.

As the capital and business center of the Netherlands, Amsterdam has a dynamic and versatile real estate market. Thanks to its great tourist attraction, its international character and the idiosyncratic Amsterdam mentality, the city never stands still. Just like our 680 colleagues at our head office. From here we serve the whole of Mokum: from Sloterdijk to Schiphol and from the Jordaan to Zuidoost. Each district has its own charm and areas of interest, and therefore deserves tailor-made real estate solutions. Fortunately, our team in the capital knows every canal, street and alley. This way you always receive appropriate advice from local experts, whatever the real estate question.

Internationally attractive office market

No office market is as attractive as the Amsterdam one. On a global level it is a small city, but one with a fantastic reputation. It is an interesting location for organizations from home and abroad. Moreover, they not only fall for the international allure of the Zuidas, but they spread throughout Amsterdam: from tech and boutique offices on the canals to creative start-ups and scale-ups in the surrounding neighborhoods.

Wherever you settle: you can get there in no time by public transport, car or bicycle - and Schiphol is also just around the corner. International partners are never far away. Versatile, easily accessible and continuously developing: that makes our office market unique. Combined with the proximity of universities and colleges, these are the ingredients to attract new talent. Selling, renovating or renting office space? Our experts are happy to give you appropriate advice.

A city like Amsterdam attracts investors from all over the world. Armed with local knowledge and up-to-date data, we give each party tailored advice.

Rethinking the housing market

The housing shortage is palpable, especially in Amsterdam. That is why we are constantly looking for effective ways to reduce the pressure. Not an easy task: rising construction costs, interest rates and initial yields not only make construction more expensive, but also less profitable. To keep the market moving, we sit down with developers and investors in residential real estate.

Together we shape our vision of the future of the city and determine how we can organize it as smartly as possible. With new construction, but also with transformation projects - this is how we give existing buildings a new function. Moreover, we see that living and working are increasingly intertwined. This argues for multifunctional buildings and neighborhoods: lively places where both destinations come together.

Hotel real estate more popular than ever

Another important sector is the hotel market – the largest in the Netherlands. After a deep dip during the corona pandemic, almost all hotels now have high occupancy rates again. Room rates are also historically high. This makes the Amsterdam hotel market one of the most sought-after hotel investment markets in Europe. Due to the hotel stop to limit tourism, supply is lagging behind while demand is only increasing.

Our advisors know better than anyone how the market works and which objects are or will become available. By assisting customers during transformation and sustainability processes, they help optimize existing real estate and bring more balance to the market.

Our projects

The attractive mix of locations and buildings makes the Amsterdam real estate market unique. Add to that the good accessibility and the available talent, and you have an ideal business climate.

From offices to hotels and from residential towers to retail spaces: whatever sector or party we are dealing with, thanks to smart data use and an integrated approach we always make a world of difference. Our Amsterdam advisors at the head office know exactly what you need to get the best out of your real estate. Below you can see what this looks like in practice.

The table is filled with several books, some of which are placed in front of her, while others are scattered around the table. In addition to the books, there are a few chairs in the scene, one near the woman and another further away. A handbag can be seen placed on the floor near the woman, and a clock is mounted on the wall above her. The scene gives off a sense of a busy work environment.

Head Office CBRE Netherlands

Now that our new headquarters is up and running, we have started a new chapter. In a former garage in Amsterdam’s Schinkel district, we are bringing innovation to life and giving entrepreneurship every opportunity to flourish. Welcome to The Core.

Projects from the region

A modern interior resembling a café or restaurant. The main color is green, with green tables and chairs in a sleek, minimalist design. The floor appears to be covered with terracotta tiles. On the wall, a woodland scene with trees and leaves is depicted, giving the interior a calm and natural atmosphere. Natural light enters the space, and the lighting appears soft and subdued. There are no people or food visible, but the presence of tables and chairs indicates an eating establishment. The overall feel of the image is calm, modern, and stylish.
