Competence, exclusivity, and passion are the company’s core values, forming the foundation of all its activities. These values represent a quality promise to clients: they will receive the same first-class and comprehensive Engel & Völkers service no matter where they are. Intensive training programs at the company’s own Real Estate Academy and a high level of quality assurance that governs systematic and structured service delivery are key factors driving Engel & Völkers Group’s success.
The company has a long history that began in Hamburg, Germany. The foundations of Engel & Völkers were laid when Dirk C. Engel established Engel & Cie in December 1977. As the exclusive representative of an American brokerage firm, he sold real estate to German investors in central Hamburg. A few years later, Dirk C. Engel and Christian Völkers decided to open a brokerage office in Hamburg’s suburbs along the Elbe River. Their first business premises were in a villa on the historic Elbchaussee boulevard, whose façade remains an integral part of the brand’s iconic logo.
The two founders continued to develop the real estate business, transforming the industry from the ground up. By implementing a franchise system, introducing innovative marketing concepts, and continuously entering internationally in-demand first and second home markets, Engel & Völkers transcended standard brokerage practices and evolved into a globally successful luxury brand.
Today, Engel & Völkers offers innovative solutions for the traditional real estate sector. Through its digital tools and IT products, the company sets new standards for implementing smart solutions in real estate brokerage operations and delivering outstanding services covering all aspects of real estate.
Engel & Völkers boasts a unique global network with over 1,000 offices (a combination of company-owned enterprises and franchise partners) spanning five continents.
