Why entrepreneurs and chains come to us
- We know the footfall, the neighbours and the rents in every shopping street in Knokke-Heist.
- Many properties come to us before they are online: let us know what you are looking for.
- We handle takeovers of fit-out and business goodwill, and we know the rules on hospitality businesses in the shopping centres.
- We can also arrange the insurance for your business (fire, operational liability, income protection).
Own commercial premises?
Is your shop or hospitality unit becoming vacant? We look for a tenant who suits the street and your property, draw up a commercial lease and follow up the letting. If you want to sell, we agree a realistic price together based on rental value and yield.
Frequently asked questions
How long does a commercial lease run?
In Belgium a commercial lease runs for at least nine years. In principle the tenant can terminate it at the end of each three-year period, giving six months' notice. We are happy to explain what that means for your situation.
Can I open a restaurant or bar in any commercial unit?
Not always. Sometimes a zoning plan or the building's deed of division imposes restrictions, and sometimes hospitality use is actually required. We state this for each property and look into it for you.
