Both firms aim to generate value collaboratively by expanding international reach, exchanging market intelligence, as well as advisory and brokerage services. This partnership will facilitate real estate opportunities in the UK and Southeast Asia for their investors and clients, and  serves to expand Edmund Tie’s presence in the UK.
