Selling a commercial property in Nijmegen

Selling a commercial property in Nijmegen 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 Nijmegen 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 Nijmegen and the surrounding area with our own funds, without financing contingencies.

The commercial real estate market in Nijmegen

In Nijmegen, 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determine how quickly it is sold: easily accessible real estate on an established business park sells faster than outdated or non-marketable real estate on the edge of the market.

Nijmegen combines a university city with a solid industrial base along the Maas-Waal Canal and the Waal. Industrial space on established estates such as Bijsterhuizen and the canal ports remains scarce, while the city itself has little room for new industrial plots.

Due to Radboud University, the HAN and the student supply, the demand for room rental properties in Nijmegen is structurally high. Outdated offices and retail properties outside the core shopping area specifically require a buyer who calculates with redevelopment or sustainability in mind.

Our working area around Nijmegen includes Beuningen, Wijchen, Malden, Groesbeek, Elst, Arnhem. Is your property just outside these places? We will still consider it – the Arnhem-Nijmegen region and the Land van Maas en Waal fall within our purchasing area.

What is my commercial property in Nijmegen 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 Nijmegen 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 Nijmegen

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 Nijmegen	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.
