What is your property worth?
Ten questions about your building and you will see an indicative market value and rental value. Calculated from regional rent levels and initial yields — the same method a valuer uses, without the site visit.

How we calculate
- Market rent per m², corrected for age, clear height, docks and energy label
- Capitalisation factor derived from the initial yield in your region
- Land and depreciated rebuilding cost as the floor
- A range as the answer, not false precision
Background
How the value of a commercial property is built up
Commercial property is not valued like a house. What sets the figure is not what the neighbours are asking, but the rent the building can command and the return an investor requires on it.
- Market rental value. What the property would fetch per year on market terms — even if you occupy it yourself. Expressed per square metre, separately for warehouse and office space.
- Capitalisation factor. The rental value times a factor, the inverse of the gross initial yield. The more secure the income and the better the location, the higher the factor and therefore the value.
- Land and rebuilding cost. On older buildings with generous plots the land is sometimes worth more than the structure. That value is the floor under any calculation.
- Corrections. Age, clear height, number of loading docks, energy label and condition move the rental value by tens of per cent.
01
What the tool does
A fast, honest range based on regional benchmarks and your input. Enough to know whether a sale, a refinancing or a sale-and-leaseback is worth investigating.
02
What it does not do
No inspection, no land registry, no soil survey, no tenant analysis. A bank or a buyer will not accept this figure — that needs a substantiated valuation.

Frequently asked
About calculating value
How is the value of a commercial property calculated?
By capitalising the rent: the annual market rental value times a capitalisation factor. That factor follows from the gross initial yield investors require in that region and for that type of building. Location, age, quality and the security of the income determine the factor; the land value forms the floor.
What is a warehouse worth per square metre?
For modern logistics property in the Netherlands capital values run roughly between € 900 and € 1,800 per square metre, depending on region, clear height, age and energy label. Older buildings in secondary locations sit well below that. The tool works that figure out for your building instead of showing an average.
Is this calculation a valuation?
No. It is an automated indication based on regional benchmarks and your own input, without an inspection. A figure a bank, buyer or accountant will accept requires an inspection and substantiation. We produce those for you — and the first conversation is free.
Why a range rather than one figure?
Because a single figure is false precision. Without having seen the building, a margin of just over ten per cent is more honest than an exact number that then fails to hold up at the bank.
