Ans de Wijn Bedrijfshuisvesting B.V.

What Ans de Wijn Bedrijfshuisvesting B.V. does

Ans de Wijn Bedrijfshuisvesting B.V. is a privately held commercial real estate brokerage firm headquartered at Herculesplein 353 in Utrecht, Netherlands, founded on 1 December 1991 by Ans de Wijn. The firm specializes in intermediating office and industrial real estate transactions for both landlords (verhuurders) and tenants (huurders), and advises institutional and private investors (beleggers) on the acquisition and disposition of investment properties across the Netherlands, with deep roots in the Greater Utrecht / Midden-Nederland region. Its service offering spans four pillars: rental intermediation and lease renegotiation (aanhuur), leasing (verhuur), investment advisory (beleggingen), and organizational housing consultancy (consultancy) for clients facing expansion, contraction, centralization, or decentralization. The firm's go-to-market is relationship-driven direct advisory, with senior brokers and NVM/MRE-certified professionals managing the full transaction lifecycle from market analysis and viewings through negotiation and contract finalization; the firm also operates as a co-broker alongside global majors such as JLL and CBRE on larger mandates.

The business operates on a transaction-fee revenue model, earning success-based commissions on completed rental and investment deals; no subscription, recurring, or platform-based revenue streams are disclosed. Distribution combines direct in-house advisory with listings on the NVM Business and FundainBusiness aggregator platforms and a dedicated iOS/Android mobile app that enables digital property browsing and viewing scheduling. Marketing is primarily digital and content-led through the corporate website, a semi-annual housing special publication, an email newsletter, and active LinkedIn and Instagram channels used for transaction announcements and social proof.

The technology stack is conventional for a brokerage: no proprietary platform, API, or data product is offered, and the firm does not employ AI, ML, or analytics tools internally beyond standard property-listing workflows. The company has approximately 9-10 employees including founders, real estate advisors, a coordinator, and team assistants, and is family-owned, with Flip van Overhagen MRE holding 100% ownership since 2017 and founder Ans de Wijn remaining active as a broker and registered appraiser. Customer logos span government (Rijksvastgoedbedrijf/Defensie, Koninklijke Nederlandse Jagersvereniging), financial services (Van Lanschot Kempen), technology (Strict Holding, Shark Town), enterprise (Zelesta), nonprofit (CLBPS), and institutional landlords (LUNEE, POG, Aroundtown, Commercial Real Estate Management), and the firm is ranked #1 in Utrecht and #4 in the Netherlands by NVM Business.
