Engel & Völkers

We combine the capabilities of our highly competent team with our world-wide network under our master brand. Our strength is based on the in-depth training of our employees, on constantly updated information and on continuous knowledge transfer within our company. Whether you want to rent or let, buy or sell, invest or develop a project – whether it’s a matter of acquiring land or a turnkey property, renovation or new construction, apartment, mansion or holiday home – our portfolio is extensive and high class. Discretion as well as protecting the interests of our customers is a point of honour for us. Ultimately our brand’s success is also due to these values. Engel & Völkers firmly counts on innovation and co-operation, professionalism and reliability.

With over 590 franchise partners in 38 countries, Engel & Völkers is one of the leading franchisors for those interested in marketing premium properties in top locations. The recent results published by Franchise Direct of its 2010 Top 100 Global Franchises in all business sectors, placed Engel & Völkers 38th in the rankings, proving the brand's appeal. We are pleased to announce that our expansion plan now includes Southern African countries including Namibia, Botswana, Zambia and Mozambique. Currently, we are seeking qualified franchise partners to join our international network in prime locations.

Our unique, boutique-style shop concept, innovative IT strategy, international referral system, in-house lifestyle magazine and The Local Guide to Southern Africa Real Estate are just a few reasons why Engel & Völkers has become the real estate brand of choice amongst entrepreneurs.
