As part of its ongoing development strategy to widen its coverage of international markets, Primonial REIM has created a new entity, Primonial REIM Spain. Its office located in Madrid is now the seventh office for the Primonial REIM’s real estate platform, with teams already present in France, Germany, Italy, Luxembourg, UK and Singapore.

Felipe Pe´rez Agusti´n will be responsible for sourcing new real estate investments opportunities, and overseeing the Spanish current assets portfolio which represents more than €700 mln, divided in different asset class (residential, healthcare, education, hotels).

Furthermore, he will be in charge of raising equity from Spanish institutional investors for Primonial REIM’s pan European funds, by capitalising the real estate platform synergies.

Additionally, he will continue to establish local strategic partnerships and strengthen those Primonial REIM already has, such as the Joint Venture maintained with Grupo Lar since 2020 for the development of a residential platform with 5 000 'Build-to-Rent' units in Spain. Grupo Lar is a major Spanish property developer specialized in all real estate sectors.

He began his career in 2013 as a Technical Asset manager in the infrastructure department of Quironsalud Group. In 2015, he joined Savills, as technical manager to manage a portfolio of commercial and hotel assets. He was in charge of developing the healthcare department of Savills dedicated to the acquisition of healthcare facilities and advising operators and specialized investors.
