ASK signs real estate industry stalwarts as Managing Partners

As part of their appointments, both will ultimately become equity partners in ASK, with their interests aligned to the long-term growth and success of the business. Their appointments bring additional expertise across real estate development and investment, origination and private capital to ASK’s established debt platform and will drive further growth in the lending business, broaden ASK’s investor base and all the business to selectively pursue equity opportunities.

Daniel Austin, CEO and co-founder of ASK Partners, said:

“Greg and Marc joining the leadership team is an important and exciting step in the next stage of ASK’s growth. They bring complementary experience across development, investment, origination and private capital, as well as longstanding relationships across the real estate market. Importantly, this is about building on what ASK already does well. We will continue to be highly selective and underwriting-led, but with a broader senior team, greater origination capability and more ways to deploy capital into attractive real estate opportunities.”
