In addition to sourcing attractive real estate projects, the office’s main activities will also include networking with international investors and potential project partners who are seeking access to the European real estate market via London.

‘We are here to stay as London is going to be one of Coros’ core markets over the next decade. The opening of our new office is thus an important step in Coros’ internationalisation and growth strategy. We want to expand our international business and our local presence in Europe’s most important real estate markets. As an international financial centre and emerging tech hub combined with its heritage of culture, arts and education, London is highly complementary to our key markets Berlin, Munich, and Paris,’ said Leonhard Sachsenhauser, founding partner at Coros. ‘Despite Brexit, the city remains one of the continent's most important real estate markets with exciting real estate projects and is a gateway for international investors. Our office gives us greater access to an international network of key decision-makers and some of the greatest experts in the real estate and finance industry, as well as an incredibly promising pool of junior talent.’

‘In the area of sustainability, for example, the UK is pursuing some of the most forward-thinking regulatory frameworks to manage carbon emissions in the commercial real estate sector. We are therefore convinced that London will play an important role in discussions regarding sustainable real estate and will set the pace for developments in that area across Europe moving forward,’ said Philipp Horsthemke, founding partner at Coros.
