04-02-2015

US-based investor WP Carey entered into a build-to-suit transaction for Rabobank from Dutch developer OVG. The transaction is one of the largest single asset investment transaction of the past months.

The new 25,000 m2 building will be located at Rabobank's current Eindhoven headquarters' site and is expected to be completed in 2017. The building has been designed to realise an attractive and flexible working environment for 1,500 Rabobank employees. The floors of the building are divisible into independent units, so that multi-tenanting is possible in the future.

NautaDutilh's team consisted of David van Dijk, Kees Koetsier, Frank Spraakman, Niels Hagelstein, Carola Houpst, Daan Jacobs and Tim Grundmeijer.
