Brockhoff Makelaars

What Brockhoff Makelaars does

Brockhoff Makelaars is a privately held Dutch real estate brokerage founded in 1976 and headquartered in Amstelveen. The firm describes itself as the long-standing market leader in Amstelveen and surrounding areas, and operates as a subsidiary of the Vivantus group, a national network of 39 real estate brokerage offices across the Netherlands. Brockhoff runs two physical offices in Amstelveen — one for residential brokerage and one dedicated to new construction — and serves individual home buyers, sellers, renters, new-build buyers, and a smaller segment of commercial property clients.

The company operates as a full-service, multi-line brokerage. Core offerings include woningmakelaardij (residential sales), verhuurmakelaardij (rental brokerage), nieuwbouwmakelaars (new construction), and bedrijfsmakelaars (commercial property). Adjacent financial services are bundled in-house: hypotheken (mortgage advisory for starters, movers, and refinancing), verzekeringen (personal and business insurance), and woningtaxaties (property valuations). Supporting digital tools include a website-based property listing platform with CRM functionality, online appointment booking, a free property search service (Gratis Zoekservice), a client portal (Mijn Brockhoff 24/7 / Relatiedossier), and syndication to Funda, the dominant Dutch property portal. The firm holds NVM and MVA professional memberships and an "Erkend Financieel Adviseur" designation.

Brockhoff's revenue model is traditional brokerage commission on completed transactions, with no disclosed pricing or fee schedule. Go-to-market is sales-led: customers originate via website inquiries, phone calls, walk-ins at the two offices, and open-house events, with Funda and the Vivantus network providing broader funnel reach. The firm competes on local market expertise, 50-year brand presence, and one-stop service breadth rather than on technology differentiation.
