Rebirth Development

What Rebirth Development does

Rebirth Development B.V. is a privately held, boutique real estate development company headquartered at Parkstraat 183 in The Hague, Netherlands, operating as part of the YOUNG group of companies. The company was effectively established in March 2021 when Managing Partner Nanne Veenstra took over the development activities, team, and project pipeline of The Young Venture Group (founded 2015 by Wim de Jong, who remains as shareholder and advisor). Its core business is acquiring underutilized or distressed real estate — frequently via off-market transactions with owners seeking swift exits — and orchestrating its transformation into residential, commercial, or mixed-use developments, then selling either completed projects or development positions to institutional buyers (e.g., BPD Bouwfonds/Rabobank) or directly to end-buyers. Project work spans The Hague, Rijswijk, Naaldwijk, Waddinxveen, and Scheveningen in the Netherlands and, since 2025, Curaçao via a wholly-owned subsidiary developing the Baia Vista Residence (150-200 homes across multiple phases) and Sami Verde (~40 homes) resort projects.

The company's operating model is asset-light and partnership-driven: rather than maintaining in-house construction capacity, Rebirth assembles specialist teams per project — architects (Zecc Architecten, Zeinstra Verbeek Architects), brand partners (Brickx Communicatie), brokers (Cushman & Wakefield), joint-venture partners (BPS Real Estate for Havenkwartier), and municipal/government counterparts (Municipality of Rijswijk). Its technology footprint is conventional — a professional website, project-specific microsites (baiavista.com, samiverde.com), and standard social channels — with no proprietary software, AI/ML capabilities, or patents disclosed. Revenue is generated one-time per project through development margin and property appreciation, recognized at sale or delivery milestones; key historical exits include Central Parkstraat (69 studios, delivered Jan 2021), Hotel De Unie (sold to Municipality of Waddinxveen, 2022), Aquarius Hotel position (sold 2023), Loosduinse Hoofdstraat 315 (sold to healthcare institution, 2023), Havenplein (sold 2023), Fahrenheitstraat 434-B (sold 2022), and De Waterman (sold to BPD Bouwfonds Dec 2024, site delivered Apr 2026). Customer mix spans institutional developers, municipalities, private investors, healthcare institutions, and — most recently with the Curaçao expansion — international end-buyers purchasing primary residences or vacation properties.

• Ballast Nedam Development: Diversified Dutch construction and development company with residential development arm. Comparable in residential project delivery but vastly larger, listed entity with full construction integration.
• BPD Bouwfonds Gebiedsontwikkeling: One of the Netherlands' largest area developers, part of Rabobank.
