What the buyer is looking for
The municipality has a large real estate portfolio, including buildings and plots of land (hereinafter referred to as real estate), which is used to achieve social objectives in areas such as culture, welfare, sports and education: social objectives. The Real Estate Organisation Utrecht (hereinafter: VGU) is the owner of this property on behalf of the municipality. As a result of, among other things, changes, redevelopment, sale or changed policy deployment, municipal real estate may be temporarily vacant. That is why the municipality considers it important that the property is managed safely, while also taking into account the minimisation of management costs. The municipality also considers it important that the property is used socially, unless that is not possible. €400.000,- over 4 years.

This procedure allows 68 days between publication and deadline — typical in this country is 48 (median of 2,911 procedures). Much more generous than usual — time for a thorough bid rather than a quick one.
