If you finance with a loan, you can increase the return on equity even further. 02 ### Minimal management burden Tenants are entrepreneurs who take care of maintenance themselves. No calls in the middle of the night, no minor repairs. You only bear the structural costs. 03 ### Structural tenant demand The need for affordable business premises for SMEs is growing steadily, ensuring stable occupancy rates whatever the economic climate. 04 ### Transparent cost structure Most running costs are contractually passed on to the tenant. You know in advance what you bear, with rarely a surprise. ## Two types of property, one clear winner for peace of mind Anyone who already invests in residential or commercial property knows the rhythm. Repairs that suddenly crop up. Tenants who call. Meetings that pile up. Dirk Stampaert invests in both segments and makes the distinction crystal clear: business property comes with significantly fewer worries. The tenant is a tradesperson or entrepreneur who rolls up their sleeves when something needs sorting. That changes everything about how you experience your role as owner. “ ## Peace of mind is not a by-product of this investment. It is one of the main reasons to choose it. Dirk Stampaert, Hexagon investor ## A stepping stone for entrepreneurs, an anchor for investors What sets Hexagon apart in the market is the dual logic behind every project. A business park is not just a product for investors, it is also an answer to a real need among small and medium-sized enterprises looking for affordable, functional space on their own scale. An electrician, a small logistics player or a start-up producer is looking for something else: a space that fits what they need now, in an accessible location within a professional environment. Hexagon's business parks respond to exactly that, which creates a stable foundation for the investor: demand is structural, not cyclical. ## What other entrepreneurs say [News - overview ](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news "News - overview") [![Henschel](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/22706/Henschel.webp)Read more Nieuws### Revive and Hexagon join forces again to redevelop the Henschel site in Wilrijk](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/revive-and-hexagon-join-forces-again-to-redevelop-the-henschel-site-in-wilrijk "Revive and Hexagon join forces again to redevelop the Henschel site in Wilrijk")[![Splitscreen activeren blog](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/Import-hxgn.be/Nieuws/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/34152/splitscreen-activeren-blog.webp)Read more Over Hexagon### There ís room for business, if we actually activate it](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/er-is-ruimte-om-te-ondernemen-als-we-ze-effectief-activeren-2 "There ís room for business, if we actually activate it")[![Een ervaren ontwikkelaar weet wanneer een dossier de moeite](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/Import-hxgn.be/Nieuws/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/29601/een-ervaren-ontwikkelaar-weet-wanneer-een-dossier-de-moeite.webp)Read more Blog### “An experienced developer knows when a deal is worth pursuing”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/een-ervaren-ontwikkelaar-weet-wanneer-een-dossier-de-moeite-waard-is "“An experienced developer knows when a deal is worth pursuing”")[![WEB BANNER BEDRIJVENCONTACTDAGEN B thumbnail](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39596/WEB-BANNER-BEDRIJVENCONTACTDAGEN_B-thumbnail_2026-10-20-135848_mnae.webp)Read more Over Hexagon### Visit Hexagon at the Bedrijvencontactdagen](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/bezoek-hexagon-op-de-bedrijvencontactdagen "Visit Hexagon at the Bedrijvencontactdagen")[![HEXAGON GHEERAERTS 6 X8 A6838 WEB](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39574/HEXAGON-GHEERAERTS-6X8A6838-WEB.webp)Read more Testimonial### “We deliberately chose a partner who shares the same sustainable vision”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/we-kozen-bewust-een-partner-die-dezelfde-duurzame-visie-deelt "“We deliberately chose a partner who shares the same sustainable vision”")[![HEXAGON 6 X8 A7932 WEB](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39599/HEXAGON-6X8A7932-WEB.webp)Read more Testimonial### “Here, everything comes together”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/hier-klopt-het-volledige-plaatje "“Here, everything comes together”")[![6 X8 A6666 HR](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39556/6X8A6666-HR.webp)Read more Testimonial### “Bedrijfsvastgoed biedt gemoedsrust aan investeerders en kansen aan kmo’s”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/bedrijfsvastgoed-biedt-gemoedsrust-aan-investeerders-en-kansen-aan-kmos "“Bedrijfsvastgoed biedt gemoedsrust aan investeerders en kansen aan kmo’s”")[![HEXAGON ACC 6 X8 A6065 WEB](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39613/HEXAGON-ACC-6X8A6065-WEB.webp)Read more Testimonial### “Convinced by Bazuin's inviting appeal”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/overtuigd-van-de-uitnodigende-uitstraling-van-bazuin "“Convinced by Bazuin's inviting appeal”")[![HEXAGON LENNY 6 X8 A6869 HR](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39622/HEXAGON-LENNY-6X8A6869-HR.webp)Read more Testimonial### “Hexagon always made us feel at ease”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/hexagon-gaf-ons-steeds-een-goed-gevoel "“Hexagon always made us feel at ease”")[![HEXAGON REVIVE 6 X8 A8256 WEB](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_810x540_crop_center-center_85_none/39631/HEXAGON-REVIVE-6X8A8256-WEB.webp)Read more Blog### “Twee Kranen will be an inspiring environment”](https://www.hxgn.be/en/news/twee-kranen-wordt-een-inspirerende-omgeving "“Twee Kranen will be an inspiring environment”") ## Location as the foundation Stampaert deliberately chose the Stuyf business park in Izegem, in the heart of West Flanders. The Kortrijk-Roeselare-Bruges axis is economically active and its central location attracts entrepreneurs from a wide area. That strategic choice is no coincidence: Hexagon selects locations based on economic dynamism and accessibility, not merely on the availability of land. A well-located unit on a lively business estate lets faster, retains tenants longer and holds its value better than a cheaper unit in an area where activity is stagnating. ## Our recent business premises [![Juta ju F 2](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/Import-hxgn.be/Projecten/Juta/_754x829_crop_center-center_85_none/30850/Juta-juF-2.webp)Read more Waregem### Juta business park On the site of a former jute factory in Waregem, the Juta business park is growing into a dynamic park with 25 SME units. - From € 313,875 - Floor areas up to 456 m² - 25 spaces](https://www.hxgn.be/en/projects/waregem/juta "Juta business park")[![Zidis Hexagon Bazuin 1](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_754x829_crop_center-center_85_none/26997/Zidis_Hexagon_Bazuin-1.webp)PHASE 2 STARTINGRead more Roeselare### Bazuin business park The abandoned factory site along the Brugsesteenweg in Roeselare is getting a new lease of life with sustainable, flexible SME units. - From € 118,500 - Floor areas up to 534 m² - 53 spaces](https://www.hxgn.be/en/projects/roeselare/bazuin "Bazuin business park")[![Zidis Hexagon Stuyf 14 Large](https://dllf5dp7t3bfm.cloudfront.net/transforms/_754x829_crop_center-center_85_none/25435/Zidis_Hexagon_Stuyf-14-Large_2026-10-13-093343_twoo.webp)Read more Evergem### Stuyf business park Inspiring SME units and storage halls for sale in Izegem: easy to reach and the ideal base for your growing business. - From € 245,920 - Floor areas up to 456 m² - 32 spaces](https://www.hxgn.be/en/projects/evergem/stuyf "Stuyf business park") ## What matters when choosing a unit? A floor that can handle heavy equipment, sufficient clear height and a solid electrical connection are not luxuries, they are the minimum requirements for a large group of potential tenants. Beyond the unit itself, the surroundings count too. Enough room to manoeuvre, a well-kept entrance and a professional look for the park as a whole all play a part. Tenants don't just choose a space, they also choose an address where they welcome their customers. ## The financial picture The gross yield for well-located units usually ranges between four and five per cent per year. If you finance with a loan, you can further increase that return on the equity you put in. VAT-registered investors can also recover the tax on the purchase price, which lowers the real entry cost. Whether buying through a company or privately is more tax-efficient deserves a separate conversation with an adviser. What is certain: the cost structure is transparent. Most running costs are contractually passed on to the tenant, and the owner only bears the structural costs. ## Hexagon as your partner throughout the process Stampaert described his collaboration with Hexagon in one word: enjoyable. Not because everything went perfectly smoothly, but because the team tackles challenges, is easy to reach and keeps its promises. For an investor entering this segment for the first time, that is no small detail. Hexagon builds functional and attractive business parks in carefully chosen locations in Flanders. Every project is founded on the same conviction: a good business park works for everyone, for the entrepreneur and for the investor looking for a solid, worry-free investment. ## Contact us [Find your space ](https://www.hxgn.be/en/units)
