The Slovak office of the real estate services company CBRE - which specialises in the commercial real estate market - has taken on a new key reinforcement for its professional team: Anthony Selman, who is also the Head of Investment Properties for Central and Eastern Europe.
CBRE sees strong investment potential in Slovakia that has yet to be sufficiently exploited, which will change with the arrival of this leading expert. “Statistics show that compared to other V4 countries, the Slovak commercial real estate market remains under invested. We see significant liquidity growth on the market, which may reach three- to four-times current levels. That's why we’re engaging an industry leader with over 17 years’ relevant experience,“ says Tomáš Hegedűš, CBRE’s CEO for Slovakia. He adds that the new head will be responsible for bringing new capital to Slovakia and looking after key CBRE clients.
As well as the new position at CBRE Slovakia, Anthony Selman will continue to be the Head of Investment Properties for CEE. Prior to working with CBRE, he led brokerage teams with Cushman & Wakefield in South America, London, Moscow, and Warsaw.
“We see a significant opportunity in Bratislava. In Slovakia we have one of the most successful CBRE branches in Europe, as well as some of the regions most succesful developers and investors. Slovakia is the natural centre of CEE, close to Prague Vienna and Budapest, and the parallel management of local and multinational teams will bring significant synergy for our clients. As Bratislava and Bucharest will continue to see a significant increase in liquidity on the real estate market, we naturally want to be there and help build the most diverse and transparent investment market," explains Anthony Selman.
The commercial real estate sector has been very successful in recent years, and has literally changed the panorama of the capital city and regions. “Clients are increasingly demanding and sophisticated, Slovak financial capital has long since transcended our country’s border, and international investors have returned. The best services can only be provided by those companies that can attract the top talent. These are also the main differentiators on market,“ concludes Tomáš Hegedűš.
