Engel & Völkers: a strong brand a diverse company profile.
The Engel & Völkers success story began in 1977 in Hamburg with the brokerage of premium residential properties. Today, our strong brand is represented by a globally renowned and continually growing company that offers a comprehensive range of services for any property-related requirement.
The Commercial division, which was founded in 1988, specialises in the brokerage of commercial real estate – multi-purpose apartment and office blocks, business premises, industrial and retail space, hotels and investment properties – and has commercial offices in Europe, South Africa, South America and the Middle East.
The Yachting division has supplemented the extensive service portfolio of the Engel & Völkers Group since 2007. It not only includes the brokerage of high-end yachts and chartering, but also the management of new builds and renovations.
The new corporate division Engel & Völkers Aviation was launched in 2015, focussing on the global brokerage of corporate and private aircraft – from chartering to purchase, and from small propeller aircraft to superjets for transatlantic flights.
