Four former managers of Cromwell Property Group and Valad Europe, which was acquired by Cromwell, have reunited to form a pan-European real estate investment management firm focused on the industrial, office and infrastructure sectors.
MC Property has been set up by Mark McLaughlin, former European managing director of Cromwell; Rob Cotterell, former head of investment for Europe and head of U.K.; Wouter Zwetsloot, former head of real estate Europe and head of Benelux; and their former colleague, Martin Hanratty, who was a fund manager at Valad Europe (acquired by Cromwell in 2015) and, latterly, property director of Bizspace. Each partner has more than 20 years’ experience working in the European real estate market with partners such as Blackstone, Cerberus, Goldman Sachs and Carlyle.
McLaughlin and Zwetsloot will be based in the Netherlands, and Cotterell and Hanratty will be based in the United Kingdom. They will work with Thomas Heidelberger, their operating part
