Allsop has appointed Richard Brooke from Cushman & Wakefield as a partner to lead its commercial investment activity in the north of England.
Brooke will be based in the firm’s Leeds office and report to Jeremy Hodgson, head of Allsop’s national investment team.
Before joining Allsop, Brooke led C&W’s Yorkshire and North East investment team, covering a broad range of commercial property sectors. He has acted for clients including Abrdn, Hines, Europa Capital and Leeds City Council.
Recent career highlights include advising London & Scottish Property Investment Management on the off-market acquisition of three office buildings in Yorkshire for a combined value of around £26m; facilitating the sale of a prime multi-let industrial scheme for £29.3m on behalf of Leeds City Council; and the acquisition of a 200,000 sq ft distribution facility in Wakefield for £20m on behalf of Hines.
At Allsop, Brooke will focus on a mix of asset classes including office, logistics, mixed-use and assets with potential for a change of use, while working closely with Allsop’s specialist residential transactional and living markets department.
