MRP

What MRP does

MRP Development B.V. is a privately held Dutch real estate developer and investor founded in 2013 and headquartered in Amsterdam. The company develops mixed-use, sustainable property across the Netherlands — combining residential, commercial, hospitality, parking, and community spaces — under a proprietary "Living Blue Zone" framework that applies scientific insights about longevity, health, and community into urban development. Its portfolio spans approximately 1,000,000 square meters, includes 20 active and completed projects, and is supported by €300 million in assets under management. MRP operates through four branded divisions: MRP Development (project development), MRP Investment (property investment), MRP Flex Offices (flexible workspace at WFC Amsterdam with tech-community partner TNW West), and MRP Parking (operating parking facilities such as Parking Nieuw West).

MRP generates revenue via four streams: one-time property sales (owner-occupied apartments and townhouses to individual buyers and investors), recurring rental income (long-term leases of residential units to housing corporations and institutional investors, and commercial space to tenants), development and advisory fees from consortium arrangements, and parking operations. Its customer mix spans affluent individual residential buyers (Mares The Hague, De Zuid), housing corporations (Portaal acquiring 130 social rental homes and committing 165 more in Cartesius Utrecht), institutional investors (CBRE Investment Management acting for ABP pension fund, which acquired 1,000 rental homes and 250 parking spaces in a January 2026 record transaction), and commercial tenants (Flynth, Jumbo). The company pursues partnerships with municipalities (Amsterdam, Utrecht, The Hague), co-developers (Ballast Nedam Development, VORM), and operating partners (Q-Park, P1, Four Energy, Bruynzeel Keukens, Rabobank) to execute large-scale area developments.

The business is increasingly differentiated by sustainability credentials (BREEAM, gasless buildings, renewable heating via long-term contracts with Four Energy) and by research-backed health and community outcomes validated through the RAAK-PRO grant-funded reflexive monitoring system in the Cartesius living lab. Cartesius Utrecht has been recognized internationally by the World Economic Forum (Davos 2026) and KPMG as a showcase for livable cities, and the company has begun international expansion via the MRP Greece subsidiary, converting the historic Xenia Hotel on Spetses into a five-star eco-resort. Leadership is closely held: Bart Meijer serves as CEO and owner, and Daniël van Dongen was appointed CFO effective June 1, 2026 to professionalize finance, governance, and risk across the Dutch operations and international subsidiaries.
