About

Thom Bode is a Associate Director in the Capital Markets team at Cushman & Wakefield, based in Amsterdam. He focuses on investment advisory across the Dutch commercial real estate market, supporting clients with the acquisition, disposal, and structuring of real estate assets. He operates within one of the firm's most active Capital Markets practices in Continental Europe, advising a broad range of domestic and international investors.

Thom has started his career at the valuation & advisory department as Senior Valuer and developed his career building expertise in the Dutch real estate market across multiple asset classes. In 2021 he transfered to the capital markets team. His experience covers the full transaction cycle, from initial market analysis and asset positioning through to deal execution and post-transaction support. This breadth of involvement allows him to provide clients with well-informed, commercially grounded advice at every stage of an investment process.

His advisory approach combines detailed market knowledge with a strong focus on client outcomes. He works to identify opportunities that align with clients' investment strategies, whether they are seeking to deploy capital, optimise existing portfolios, or navigate changing market conditions. His understanding of pricing dynamics, investor sentiment, and asset fundamentals in the Netherlands enables him to offer clear and considered guidance in a market that continues to attract significant cross-border interest.

Geographically, Thom's focus spans the entire Netherlands. While Amsterdam serves as his official base and primary market, he is active across the country on a daily basis, advising clients and working on transactions in all major logistics and industrial hubs throughout the Netherlands. He is well-positioned to advise clients on both core urban assets and broader Dutch market opportunities, drawing on the firm's extensive local presence and research capabilities.

His sector coverage within Capital Markets spans primarily Industrial real estate. He works with a range of investor profiles, from institutional funds to private equity and family office capital, helping each navigate the specific dynamics of the Netherlands investment market.
