Meierijstad Makelaardij

What Meierijstad Makelaardij does

Meierijstad Makelaardij is a privately held Dutch regional real estate brokerage headquartered in Schijndel, North Brabant, serving the Meierijstad region through two physical offices (Schijndel and Veghel). The firm provides full-service residential brokerage including sales, rentals, new-build (nieuwbouw) intermediation, and valuation services, alongside commercial real estate brokerage (BOG — bedrijfsonroerendgoed) for small and mid-sized business clients. Complementary mortgage advisory is delivered through a sister entity, Meierijstad Hypotheken, allowing the firm to capture the financing leg of each transaction.

The company operates with approximately 5–9 employees structured as three NVM-licensed brokers, three administrative staff, one rental administrator, and one financial advisor. Operational technology is built on Realworks for back-office transaction management, with listing distribution and lead acquisition driven by Funda (the dominant Dutch property portal). Valuations are issued under the NWWI/Taxateurs Unie framework, providing certified appraisal output required by lenders. The firm markets itself under the "De Makelaar van Hier" (the local broker) positioning and holds a 9.2/10 Funda rating and a 4/5 Google rating.

Revenue is generated through transaction-based commissions on residential sales and rentals, BOG commercial mandates, valuation fees, and referral/commission splits from the in-house mortgage advisory arm. Customer composition is entirely long-tail: individual buyers, sellers, tenants, and small local businesses in the Meierijstad catchment. The firm has no disclosed institutional clients, recurring SaaS revenue, or third-party capital; the business is founder-/partner-owned and self-funded.

Scale indicators2 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Eigen Huis Makelaars: Eigen Huis Makelaars is a national NVM-affiliated brokerage network connected to the Vereniging Eigen Huis consumer brand. Overlaps with Meierijstad on full-service residential sales and buyer/seller representation, with broader geographic reach.

Others

• Realworks: Realworks is the Dutch real estate software platform powering Meierijstad's website listings. Comparable as the technology/infrastructure partner enabling property inventory management and listing syndication.
