Since 1978, Tishman Speyer has acquired, built or developed over 325 projects totaling over 116 million square feet and more than 92,000 residential units, and a property portfolio in excess of US$50.2 billion in total value across the United States, Europe, Latin America and Asia. In that time, we have developed in-depth market knowledge as well as an extensive network of relationships that enable us to identify opportunities before they reach the market often positioning Tishman Speyer as the buyer of choice for those selling assets. This has resulted in a near-legendary ability to spot opportunities and create value for our tenants and our partners.

Application of Market Knowledge and Operational Experience
Tishman Speyer's long-standing presence in many markets, its extensive network of in-house leasing and property management professionals, and its ability to identify, in significant detail, opportunities for operational improvements and asset repositioning, give Tishman Speyer a competitive advantage in determining an asset's underlying value. Such knowledge and experience also reduces investment risk.

Thorough Due Diligence
Tishman Speyer's in-house professionals carefully manage each element of the due diligence process to increase the likelihood of the successful acquisition of an existing property or the development of a new property at an attractive price. The due diligence process includes:

  • Analysis of the supply and demand dynamics in the selected market or submarket
  • Thorough review of the existing or proposed financial structure of the property
  • Detailed review of building expense and analysis of potential operating cost savings
  • Market validation of leasing assumptions and identification of prospective new tenants
  • In-house management and coordination of environmental consultants, legal counsel and tax experts and other professionals both within and outside of our organization

Tishman Speyer's superior acquisition and development expertise is reflected in many of the world's great urban properties as well as in the company's current portfolio of assets. Among our better known properties are New York's Rockefeller Center, the Chrysler Center and the Peter Cooper Village/Stuyvesant Village residential complex in New York, Berlin's Sony Center, Frankfurt's Messeturm, London's Millbank Tower and Sao Paolo's Torre Norte.
