The history of the RdB Group
A success story with tradition and future
The RdB Real Estate Germany head office is located at Tenderweg 2 in Essen
The RdB Group is an investment company that was established in the mid-1980s. The founder, Rolf de Boer, is still the chief executive and sole shareholder.

In line with the developments in the real estate sector at that time, in the early years only new buildings were built, mainly company buildings to let. With the fall of the wall between East and West Germany, most activities were transferred to Germany. During the 90s in particular, heavy investments were made in Berlin - a still growing and very interesting capital city.

Our head office is located in Essen (Germany) with additional offices in Meppel (Netherlands) and Pozen (Poland). Employees at three locations are available to answer all your questions and concerns.
