What Strijbosch Thunnissen Makelaars does

Strijbosch Thunnissen Makelaars (operating commercially as ST Makelaars) is a privately held, full-service real estate brokerage headquartered in Nijmegen, Netherlands, registered under ST Holding B.V. Founded in 1934 and taken over by current lead Makelaar/Taxateur Harry van Loon in 1996, the firm operates three offices across the Nijmegen region — the main Nijmegen headquarters on St. Canisiussingel, a branch in Lent/Nijmegen Noord, and an Arnhem office established in 2006 — and self-identifies as the undisputed regional market leader in both residential and commercial brokerage.

The firm's product surface spans residential brokerage (buying, selling, renting, letting, buyer's-agent representation, and exclusive-listing services via the Dynamis network), commercial brokerage (offices, retail, industrial, investment property), certified property valuations conducted by RICS MRICS, NRVT-registered, and NWWI-validated appraisers, ongoing property management with tenant portals, and new-construction marketing. Core technology is conventional brokerage infrastructure: an owned website with property listings, online appointment scheduling, the Brixxonline MijnAccount tenant portal, a free property search-request system, and parallel listing on Funda. Notable proprietary elements are limited to process and relationship assets rather than software IP.

Revenue mechanics rest on three streams: transaction-based commissions on residential and commercial sales, lettings and rentals (rates not publicly disclosed and quoted per engagement); professional services fees from certified appraisals; and recurring managed-services revenue from property and tenant management. Go-to-market is enterprise field sales in style — office-based, appointment-driven, augmented by community starter seminars co-hosted with ASN Bank and an independent financial advisor, quarterly thought-leadership market reports, and digital lead capture through website, newsletter, and Funda. Customers are individuals and SMEs (residential buyers/sellers, tenants, landlords, commercial tenants, investors) plus occasional institutional counterparties (e.g., government entit

Direct peers

• Makelaarsland: Makelaarsland is one of the largest Dutch online real estate brokerages, offering flat-fee brokerage for residential property sales. Directly comparable to ST Makelaars in that both broker residential property for sellers and buyers in the Netherlands, though competing on a low-cost/digital versus full-service/local-expertise axis.

Others
