Savills Liberty Street Asset Management

Our asset management services are provided by Savills Liberty Street Asset Management (SLSAM), a privately held joint venture between Savills LLC and Silverpeak Real Estate Partners. SLSAM offers clients an established platform with a turn-key solution for world-class, institutional quality asset management. The venture brings together Silverpeak’s extensive background in institutional investment and asset management with Savills’ global reach in investment advisory and capital markets.

Silverpeak principals enjoy a longstanding partnership with each other, having served in a variety of senior positions within a large global investment bank prior to the formation of Silverpeak. Silverpeak’s managing partners have worked together for more than 20 years, overseeing the origination, investment and management of over $350 billion of commercial real estate debt and equity transactions. In addition, the group created a pre-eminent global real estate private equity business in 2001 that subsequently raised three opportunistic equity funds and two mezzanine debt funds comprising nearly $9 billion in limited partner commitments. For more than a decade, Silverpeak’s founding principals and senior staff invested on a fiduciary basis on behalf of institutional investors, developing proven investment management and reporting processes.
