The growing team, based in London and Manchester, will deliver strategic real estate solutions to secured lenders and corporate borrowers throughout the lending lifecycle, including under stressed and distressed scenarios.

Before joining KR8, James Liddiment was a Managing Director within the restructuring division of a global financial services company, establishing a UK real estate restructuring offering alongside KR8 colleagues Paul Greenhalgh and Annika Kisby, where they completed LPA receivership appointments and real estate-focused administrations.

James Liddiment, Managing Director, KR8 Advisory Real Estate, commented: “I’m thrilled by the opportunity to work again with a team which has achieved great success and built tremendous client relationships through providing excellent client service as trusted real estate advisers. We are at a critical point in the market, which is experiencing significant levels of stress. Therefore, I’m looking forward to reconnecting with clients to support them in protecting and maximising their positions.”

Michael Cauter, Group CEO of K3, commented: “I’m delighted to welcome James to KR8 Advisory, which has made rapid strides since being launched at the start of this year. Along with the Group as a whole, KR8 is swiftly expanding and ideally positioned to accelerate the success it has delivered so far.”
