With European and American investment companies as well as private investors and global occupiers already present in the area, we are pleased to have found a partner who can maintain the highest standards of professional real estate advice.”

Sebastian Scheufele, Managing Partner, Modesta Real Estate, says: "In Savills, we have found a strong partner whose professional values and visions directly correspond to those of our company. The association with Savills will give us the opportunity to share our extensive experience of the Central and Eastern European commercial real estate markets while further expanding our international networks and expertise.”
