Former furniture manufacturer and current property investor Dirk Stampaert bought two SME units in the Stuyf business park in order to let them. On the one hand to benefit from the attractive return on business property, on the other to offer SMEs tailor-made business space: “In a business park like Stuyf, companies find a great stepping stone to a strong future,” says Dirk Stampaert.

How did you come across Hexagon and the Stuyf business park?
“Hexagon was recommended to me by a professional partner. After a first meeting with Hexagon, the purchase of a first and then a second SME unit at Stuyf soon followed. Throughout the entire process, Hexagon excelled as a reliable partner. The team knows its business, is always approachable, tackles challenges straight away, keeps in touch smoothly and honours its agreements. In short: it was a pleasure working together!”
You're from Kruisem in East Flanders. What motivated you to invest in a business park in Izegem?
“Stuyf caught my attention because it lies in the heart of West Flanders. People in this province love to work and work hard. The Kortrijk-Roeselare-Bruges axis is an important lifeline. What's more, the central location of this business park drives greater demand for the SME units.”
With SME units, we give start-ups and small self-employed businesses the chance to find business space that suits them.
Dirk Stampaert, investor
What drives you to invest in business property?
“Through our family holding companies, we invest in residential and commercial property. Both types have their own specific advantages and are still rising in value. But where commercial property such as an SME unit has the edge is that it takes up less of your time. That is partly why we have recently turned our attention more towards SME property.
Letting business property involves less effort in terms of repairs, maintenance and meetings. What's more, you're letting to professionals, who are quicker to roll up their sleeves themselves when something needs fixing. With residential property, you have to take action yourself more often and more quickly. So besides the return on business property, a solid future and peace of mind are important drivers.”
Business parks also offer opportunities for the local economy. Is that an extra motivation as an investor?
“Absolutely. With SME units like those in the Stuyf business park, we give start-ups and small self-employed businesses the chance to find business space that suits them. After all, not every company needs up to 2,500 m2. With these SME units, entrepreneurs from the Roeselare region find local and affordable bases for their activities. It's a great stepping stone to a strong future for their business.”
