New homes and improved living conditions on the way in Næstved following the sale of two prominent properties

Two properties at Ringstedgade 11 and 13 in the heart of Næstved have been sold. At the end of 2025, the purchase agreement for number 11 was signed, and just under six months later, the purchase agreement for the neighbouring property at number 13 was also finalised. The buyer of the properties is Estate Invest, which has been developing and investing in properties throughout Denmark since 1989.

Peter Nielsen, director and owner of Estate Invest, says: “We have now been working on number 11 for six months and have converted the empty office space into attractive homes. We are set to undertake the same project at number 13 – only on a larger scale. We expect to be able to convert the existing floor space in the two properties, creating a total of up to 25 new homes in one of the best locations in the centre of Næstved.”

“In addition, we will ensure better conditions for the ground-floor retailers, and we have currently let three shops facing Ringstedgade, so that new life can be breathed into the high street. At the same time, an extension to a ground-floor restaurant is in the pipeline, so we are delighted to be able to contribute to the positive development that Næstved is currently experiencing,” says Peter Nielsen.

Portfolio restructuring

The seller of the properties is Velliv, which has owned the two properties on Ringstedgade in Næstved since 2001 and 2013. Rasmus Ruhnau, Senior Investment Manager at Velliv, says:

“At Velliv, we are constantly adapting our property portfolio, and now it is Næstved’s turn. The reason we are selling the two fine properties at Ringstedgade 11 and 13 in Næstved is that we are currently looking towards larger assets and wish to reduce the geographical spread of our properties. It has been a slightly longer sales process, but it has gone very well. The collaboration with Martin Andersen from EDC Erhverv Poul Erik Bech in Næstved has been excellent, and generally we have a good working relationship with EDC Erhverv across the country.”

Iconic properties in Næstved

Martin Andersen, partner at EDC Erhverv Poul Erik Bech Næstved, who brokered the sale, says: “Both properties are prominent landmarks in the heart of Næstved. Number 13 is known, among other things, for being the home of the local daily newspaper, formerly Næstved Tidende and now Sjællandske Medier, ever since the property was built in 1898, and still houses their Næstved editorial office today.”

“We are delighted to have helped Velliv sell the properties, and we welcome the investment in new homes in the central part of Næstved, where demand for housing is high. The improved transport links reduce travel time to Copenhagen, among other places, making the town more attractive to commuters. At the same time, investment is being made in both educational institutions and business-promoting initiatives, which create a strong foundation for the town’s future development. Congratulations to both parties on the deal,” says Martin Andersen.
