For a restart of challenging buildings-
back to
Square One

Square One BV develops, invests, and advises in the revitalization of real estate with persistent high vacancy rates. Often working in partnership, right through to the operational phase. Our starting point is frequently a building with chronic vacancy or another substantial challenge. Because the concept is often novel and both the building and location are challenging, our long-term involvement—from the reset—is essential. Does a building need to go 'back to square one'? Then come to Square One!

We are continually seeking investment projects and would be pleased to discuss them with you.

1. Quickly Gain Insight into the Possibilities of a Challenging Building

We employ a systematic approach to quickly assess the potential of a (vacant) building. Our starting point revolves around the preferences of various business user groups, our future tenants. We have detailed insights into the building and location criteria of these groups. Specifically, these are office users in the small to medium-sized business sector who wish to lease on a flexible basis, including shared facilities. By aligning these preferences with the characteristics of the evaluated building, we can promptly determine its suitability for redevelopment for our potential partners and ourselves.

This restart requires a resolute and energetic team, and Square One provides this boost. Our approach, featuring short communication lines, 'a deal is a deal', 'why not today instead of tomorrow', and our ongoing commitment is highly appreciated by our partners. Our willingness to often provide financial backing earlier than other developers sends a strong signal to future users and project partners about our belief in the concept for the restart.

Want to know what we can achieve for your project?

We can quickly analyze whether an existing building is suitable for us for redevelopment. If we see opportunities for purchase or cooperation, we can then proceed to a proposal in a compact process of a few days, often without a financing contingency.
This is particularly true if it is suitable for our work or retail concept with the following profile:

A.

Offices (3,500-7,500 m2) with structural vacancy for redevelopment into a serviced office concept. Ideally, with the potential to add a wooden office on the plot.

B.

Plots suitable for the development of new wooden office buildings in university cities (4,000-10,000 m2 GFA).

Other features: Preferably with some remaining rental income, within a 10-minute walking distance from a public transport station (train) and/or highway in cities with at least 100,000 inhabitants.

Vacancy? No problem! In fact, vacancy is when things get really exciting with us! We are, of course, more than willing to provide further explanation in a personal conversation. Will you contact us?
