Recognition
Recognized by the Institutions We Serve
Awards, honors, and partnerships — from government institutions, royal-office organizations, and the developers Cresco represents.
I built Cresco in Dubai — one of the most competitive real estate markets in the world. We earned our place deal by deal: AED 6.8B+ in closed transactions, 2,580+ deals, and partnerships with more than 31 developers.
But the more international our clients became, the clearer the gap became. Capital doesn't stay in one market anymore. A family in Dubai wants a home in Los Angeles. An American investor wants yield in Dubai. A GCC family wants London for the long term. And almost nobody serves all sides of that movement well.
So we stopped thinking like a brokerage and started building like an institution: brokerage, advisory, intelligence, media, capital, and education — one ecosystem, three markets, one standard.
That's Cresco Global. And we're just getting started.

The deepest market on earth rewards patience and position. California and Florida remain the first doors global capital walks through.
The next decade belongs to investors who treat the world as one portfolio — and to the firms built to serve them that way.
