About
Geoff McCabe is a Capital Markets Associate Partner at Cushman & Wakefield, based in the firm's Barcelona office. He focuses on the Living sector across Spain, advising clients on capital deployment, investment strategy, and transactional execution in one of Europe's most dynamic residential and build-to-rent markets.
Geoff brings a structured, analytical approach to capital markets advisory, underpinned by his qualification as a Member of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (MRICS). His professional grounding in valuation principles, investment fundamentals, and market analysis gives him a rigorous foundation for advising on complex Living sector transactions, where understanding both asset-level dynamics and broader capital flows is essential to strong client outcomes.
His advisory work centres on the intersection of institutional capital and residential real estate, a segment that has attracted significant investor attention across Iberia in recent years. He works with clients navigating the full transaction cycle, from identifying opportunities and structuring acquisitions through to portfolio-level strategic advice, drawing on Cushman & Wakefield's Capital Markets platform to connect clients with relevant capital sources and market intelligence.
Geoff is based in Barcelona but is frequently in Madrid, giving him direct exposure to Spain's primary investment market and the broader Iberian capital markets landscape. This positioning allows him to engage closely with both domestic and cross-border investors active in the region, providing on-the-ground market perspective that complements the firm's wider European network. His specialism spans the full breadth of the Living asset class, from build-to-rent and multifamily to student housing and other forms of institutionally managed residential real estate. With capital continuing to target the segment across Spain, this depth of focus positions him to advise clients seeking exposure to one of the market's most competitive and capital-intensive sectors.
