Raymond de Mooij

The real estate market is facing so many challenges that the word “transition” hardly does justice: housing shortages, an uncertain rental market, hybrid working, retail bankruptcies, and sustainability efforts. Entrepreneurs who need to navigate these complexities while staying on top of existing and evolving legislation require a legal specialist by their side.

Raymond de Mooij is a highly experienced real estate and tenancy lawyer whose passion for his profession is matched by his deep knowledge of the Dutch market. He assists his clients with real estate transactions, disputes about rent, service costs, rent adjustments, latent defects, and the drafting and reviewing of purchase agreements and lease contracts. Raymond has extensive litigation experience. A case only goes to court if absolutely necessary, and with his experience, Raymond knows exactly when that is, allowing you to decide on the right strategy, together, in advance.

Raymond’s clients, with whom he has often worked with for many years, include real estate entrepreneurs, project developers, housing associations, and retail companies. Within our Real Estate & Tenancy section, he closely collaborates with specialists in the field of construction law, homeowners’ association law, and administrative law. Clients describe Raymond as “to the point,” an “experienced problem solver,” and a “skilled litigator.” Helping his clients achieve the best outcomes for their businesses is what gives Raymond the boundless energy that defines him as both a professional and a person.

Raymond continues to witness this same dedication at GMW advocaten, the firm he co-founded in 1989: the ongoing ambition to deliver the highest quality, the attention to people, and the joy of working hard to find the best solutions. The fact that these values remain at the core of GMW advocaten after more than 35 years is a significant source of inspiration for Raymond.
