Selling a commercial property in Den Bosch
Selling a commercial property in Den Bosch can be done in three ways: via a commercial property agent on the open market, privately to the sitting tenant or user, or directly to a fixed buyer such as Pandverkoop.nl. Through the open market, a sale in Den Bosch usually takes months and you pay commission; with a direct sale, you receive an offer within 24 hours and usually complete at the notary within a few weeks. We purchase in Den Bosch and the surrounding area with our own funds, without financing contingencies.
The commercial real estate market in Den Bosch
In Den Bosch, location and the marketability of the property primarily determine how quickly it is sold: easily accessible real estate on an established business park sells faster than outdated or non-marketable real estate on the edge of the market.
's-Hertogenbosch is located at the intersection of the A2 and the A59 and therefore has a broad real estate market: logistics and industry on the west side, offices around the station and the Paleiskwartier, and a strong city centre with one of the most visited shopping areas in Brabant.
Office buildings outside the station zone more often have a sustainability or transformation challenge, while small-scale business units in Empel, Maaspoort and De Brand are actually scarce. For sellers, this means: the type of property determines how quickly a serious buyer is at the table more strongly than the city.
Our working area around Den Bosch includes Rosmalen, Vught, Sint-Michielsgestel, Heusden, Oss, Waalwijk. Is your property just outside these places? We will still consider it – the North-East Brabant region around 's-Hertogenbosch is part of our working area.

What is my commercial property in Den Bosch worth?
The value of commercial real estate follows from the rental flow and the yield that buyers demand: annual rent divided by the gross initial yield (BAR). With €60,000 annual rent and a required yield of 8%, you arrive at approximately €750,000; if a buyer demands a 9.5% yield, the same property drops to approximately €632,000.
For a vacant property that you use yourself, buyers calculate with the market rent that the property in Den Bosch could yield, minus the costs to make it lettable again. Overdue maintenance, a low energy label and a short remaining lease term depress the price; a long lease agreement with a solid tenant pushes it up.
- Location and accessibility (arterial roads, parking, loading and unloading)
- Rental income, remaining term and quality of the tenant
- Year of construction, maintenance status, roof, installations and asbestos
- Energy label and the sustainability task (offices at least label C)
- Zoning in the environmental plan and the possibilities for rezoning
- Surface area, clear height, plot depth, and expansion space
Sales routes compared for sellers in Den Bosch
Selling directly provides speed and certainty; a commercial estate agent provides maximum exposure but costs commission and time. Which route yields more net depends on how marketable your property is and how much of a hurry you are in.
| Route | Lead time | Seller's costs | Strongest point |
|---|---|---|---|
| Directly to Pandverkoop.nl | 2 – 6 weeks | No commission | Speed and certainty |
| Commercial estate agent in Den Bosch | 6 – 12 months | 1 – 2% commission | Maximum exposure |
| Private sale to the tenant | 1 – 3 months | None to low | Known party |
| Auction | 6 – 10 weeks | Auction costs | Certain date, lower price |
Only the deed of delivery at the notary is legally required. Engaging an estate agent is not – you may sell your commercial property in the Netherlands directly to a buyer.

Frequently asked questions
Do you buy office buildings in the Paleiskwartier or along the A2?
Yes. We purchase office buildings in 's-Hertogenbosch, even if there is vacancy or if the energy label does not yet meet the Label C requirement. We transparently include the expected investment in the offer.
Does this also apply to properties in Rosmalen, Vught or Oss?
Yes. Our region around Den Bosch runs from Vught and Sint-Michielsgestel to Rosmalen, Empel, Heusden, and Oss. If your property is just outside this area, please register it anyway – we assess each address individually.
Do you also buy vacant properties in Den Bosch?
Yes. We purchase both rented and vacant properties in Den Bosch. In the case of vacancy, we look at the market rent the property can generate and the costs to make it rentable or reusable again.
Do I pay estate agency fees or commission?
No. We buy directly from you, without the intervention of an estate agent. You pay no commission. The usual buyer's costs are at our expense; only any deed of discharge upon repayment of your mortgage will be for your account.
How quickly can completion take place in Den Bosch?
Usually within two to six weeks after agreement. If you need a specific delivery date, for example in connection with a business relocation or a tax deadline, we will plan the delivery accordingly.
Is the offer without obligation?
Yes. The offer is free and without obligation. You can reject it without costs or obligations; we will not contact you again if you indicate so.
