Frequently asked questions
Who runs Tishman Speyer Properties?
Jerry I. Speyer serves as Chairman and Co-CEO alongside his son Rob Speyer, who is President and Co-CEO. Rob Speyer assumed the President role in 2009, marking a structured succession plan (per public record). The firm remains privately controlled by the Speyer and Tishman families.
How does Tishman Speyer source investment opportunities?
The firm uses a combination of direct development, acquisitions from third parties, and public-private partnerships. Its global office network provides local market intelligence. The firm also has a venture capital arm, Tishman Speyer Ventures, which invests in real estate technology and identifies emerging trends (per the firm's communications).
Does Tishman Speyer act purely as a real estate owner, or does it manage external capital?
Tishman Speyer manages capital on behalf of institutional investors and family offices through separate accounts and commingled funds. Its credit platform, Tishman Speyer Credit Partners, raises external capital for private credit strategies. The firm also has joint ventures with pension funds and sovereign wealth funds (per public record).
What is Tishman Speyer's approach to debt and credit?
It operates a dedicated credit platform, Tishman Speyer Credit Partners, which provides senior and mezzanine debt, bridge loans, and preferred equity for real estate transactions. In 2024, the firm closed a $3 billion follow-on fund for this strategy, reflecting growing demand for real estate private credit (per Bloomberg, 2024).
What sectors of real estate does Tishman Speyer target?
The firm invests across office, residential (multifamily and for-sale), retail, industrial/logistics, and life sciences. It has also expanded into data centers and mixed-use urban development. Sector preferences vary by market cycle, but the firm maintains a diversified portfolio globally.
How is the firm governed in terms of succession?
Jerry Speyer, now in his 80s, gradually transferred leadership to his son Rob Speyer over a period of more than a decade. Rob was named President in 2009 and Co-CEO alongside his father. The firm's ownership is held through family trusts, with no public market listing (per public record).
Where does the underlying wealth of Tishman Speyer come from?
The firm was established by Jerry Speyer (a son of a real estate broker) and Robert Tishman (from the Tishman family, which had built a construction and real estate company). The families' capital was reinvested over decades. While the exact net worth of the families is not public, the firm's large portfolio provides the economic base (per public record).
