Tobias Evans, Founding Partner and Chief Investment Officer at Blue Noble LLP.

Blue Noble was founded in 2017 by a team of experienced real estate professionals from HSBC Alternative Investments - During their tenure with HSBC, the team transacted in and managed over $5 billion of real estate assets across the US, Europe and Asia.

Blue Noble offers specialist real estate investment management, through club deals, segregated accounts and funds on a global basis. Toby’s role here is focused on delivering bespoke investment opportunities, strategic business development, managing existing client relationships, and sourcing new capital.

Toby started his career at Knight frank, having graduated from both the university of Bristol, having studied Mechanical engineering and Cass Business school where he picked up his MA in Property Valuation and Law.

I sat down with Toby to discuss a broad range of subjects which covered some of the following topics:

What is the difference between a single and multi-family office?

Dealing with HNWI as clients

Challenges setting up a business

What is marriage value

Getting comparable evidence as a first mover

How he got into real estate

Opportunities in the market

Naming the business

Oh, and one last question - who are the People, what Property, and in which Place would Toby invest should he have £500m of capital at his disposal.

Catch the full episode which will be live on Spotify, Apple and Youtube from Thursday this week.
