Investment Management Team Completed Transactions Exceeding CZK 1 Billion in Six Months

“We tailor our services to the specific needs of our clients, for whom real estate is an investment tool,” says team leader Jiří Hamouz. “We offer comprehensive services for property owners—we will ensure that the transaction runs smoothly and that optimal conditions are attained. For investors, we provide our expertise in creating portfolios and securing purchases of suitable assets,” he adds.

The team focuses on a complete range of investment properties, but its main emphasis is on apartment buildings. “In the first half of the year, we successfully completed a challenging transaction in Prague that has been a long-standing challenge for the market—the sale of an ideal co-ownership share in a historic 16th-century building located directly on the Royal Route, on Malostranské Square. In Brno, we completed the sale of a unique family asset consisting of five apartment buildings,” continues Hamouz.  

In addition to trophy properties, such as an apartment building in Prague’s Old Town, the team offers a range of other unique investment properties. “We’re seeing a strong demand among qualified investors for apartment buildings and hotels, particularly in Prague, Brno, and regional cities. Interesting projects with a good yield potential are therefore being absorbed by the market very quickly. One example is our recent transaction, which involved an apartment building with small-sized apartments and non-residential units in Strašnice that we completed in just a few months,” relates Hamouz.

The investment management team welcomed three new colleagues this summer. Until recently, Lenka Tichá was Svoboda & Williams’ project manager for residential projects. Her business education—an MBA from the University of Economics in Prague with a major in real estate development and property valuation—will be put to good use in the investment management team. Dominik Poláček is a graduate of the University of Economics. He previously worked as an auditor for one of the Big Four accounting firms and as a financial controller for an investment company. Administrative support will now be provided by Sára Kubrichtová, a student of psychology. 

“The core team consists of seven professionals who work closely with Svoboda & Williams’ eight sales teams led by senior real estate agents,” concludes Jiří Hamouz.
