Where exactly is Malden?
Malden is the largest village of the municipality of Heumen, and the town hall is here. It is first mentioned in a deed from 1247, and the Malderburcht castle was probably built around 1270, though it was gone by the fourteenth century. In 1769 the lordship of Malden was sold to the city of Nijmegen. Some central buildings, among them the Antonius Abtkerk and the town hall, follow the Bossche School style, a sober brick architecture you will not see in every Dutch village.
To the north lies Heumensoord, a forest of mostly conifers that separates Malden from the southern edge of Nijmegen. It belongs to the municipality of Heumen and is a place for walking and cycling right behind the houses. A gliding airfield sits in the woods south of it. For many buyers this is the point: a village with woods on the doorstep, while Radboud University and the hospitals in Nijmegen-Zuid are on the other side of the forest.
Neighbourhoods and villages
MaldenMolenhoekHeumenOverasseltNederasselt
Municipality of Heumen. Our office is at Bijsterhuizen in Wijchen.
How do the canal and the main roads shape the village?
The Maas-Waalkanaal, opened in 1927, runs between Malden and the village of Heumen and links the Maas with the Waal near Weurt. The Maldensebrug carries the road from Malden towards Blankenberg. The municipality is crossed by the A73 and by the N271 and N844, so you reach Nijmegen, Wijchen or the A73 towards Venlo by car without going through the city.
Molenhoek is a special case. A small part of it lies in Heumen and the rest in Mook en Middelaar, which is in the province of Limburg. If you buy there, check which municipality your address falls under, because that is where you pay local taxes and apply for permits.
Which villages around Malden are worth a look?
Heumen lies between the Maas and the canal and keeps a small village scale. Overasselt joined the municipality in 1980 and, with Nederasselt, sits further west towards the Maas, with more farmland and space. Buyers who want a garden and quiet streets often compare these villages with Malden itself. Each village has its own small market, and a house in one is not automatically worth the same as a similar house a few kilometres away, which is why we look at sales village by village.
Who works for whom when you buy in Malden?
The agent named in the listing is the seller's agent and represents the seller. That agent will answer your questions, but cannot advise you on what to offer. If you want that kind of help, you hire your own buying agent ("aankoopmakelaar"), who views the house with you, judges the price and negotiates.
Keep in mind that a verbal yes on the price is not the end of it. A purchase of a home only becomes binding once the agreement is in writing and signed. As a private buyer you then have at least three days of cooling-off period ("bedenktijd"), in which you can still withdraw without giving a reason.
What does 365 Makelaars do for you in Malden?
From Wijchen we are close to the whole of Heumen. If you sell, we begin with a free valuation based on recent sales in your own village, because a house in Overasselt does not compete with one near the centre of Malden. We take care of the photos, the floor plan and the listing on Funda, and we run the viewings, also in the evening and at weekends. Our selling fee is 1.5% of the sale price.
If you buy, our buying agent works only for you. We check the house, the listing information and the asking price, and we negotiate with the seller's agent. You hear the fee upfront. Everything can be discussed in English, and you can reach your agent by WhatsApp on any day of the year.

Questions about real estate agent Malden
Do you work in the whole municipality of Heumen?
Yes. Besides Malden we sell and buy homes in Molenhoek, Heumen, Overasselt and Nederasselt. For the part of Molenhoek in Limburg we are also available, as it lies right next to Malden.
Can viewings in Malden take place at the weekend?
Yes. We plan viewings in the evening and at weekends as well, so buyers who work full time can still come and look. As a seller you agree with us which moments suit you, and we show the house.
Does a home in Malden need an energy label before it is sold?
Yes. A seller must have a valid energy label for the home. It runs from A++++ to G and tells buyers how efficient the house is. If you do not have one yet, we tell you how to arrange it before the listing goes online.
Can I arrange a mortgage through you for a house in Malden?
We do not give mortgage advice. For that you can go to KFD Woonadvies, which shares our building on the Bijsterhuizen in Wijchen. We can put you in touch so you know your budget before you start looking.
