Participant Capital, a leading South Florida private equity real estate investment firm, with over US$2.5B in projects under development, has announced today the promotion of Andres Valdivieso to Director of Global Distribution. With over 15 years of experience in international real estate sales and team management of seasoned distributors and real estate international brokers, Andres will focus on strengthening relationships with strategic partners and expanding the firm’s global distribution capabilities.
Participant Capital currently runs over 40 distributors operating throughout Latin America, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East. Its investment portfolio continues to expand with new world-class developments in South Florida and beyond.
“As we bolster our global presence and seize new opportunities of untapped markets, our focus is to bring uniquely positioned real estate assets to all of the investors worldwide – individuals and smaller institutions – that have historically lacked access to leading alternative investments,” said Claudio Izquierdo, Chief Operating Officer. “I believe Andres, with the support of our highly dedicated team, will allow us to drive growth in key distribution channels and deliver our products with high-quality deal execution, transparency, and accuracy.”
Prior to Participant Capital, Andres Valdivieso worked with Fortune International Group, where he was recognized as a top real estate producer for three consecutive years. In 2012, Andres moved to New York City to manage the exclusive sales for a luxury condo-hotel. He was once again named a top-producing executive in the region for his efforts in coaching a team of real estate sales associates and international real estate brokers to provide high-quality client service.
“I am excited to be part of Participant Capital and contribute to the firm’s international expansion,” said Andres Valdivieso. “Our experienced distribution team, decades of expertise in real estate development and local market knowledge, give us an exceptional advantage in terms of sourcing new opportunities to diversify an investment portfolio in a strong currency.”
