ABOUT US

MF LAW & TAX FIRM and MFRE S.r.l.  were created by Paolo Magnaschi, lawyer, who had the aspiration to build a "boutique" real estate firm capable of providing Clients with a highly specialized advisory service, complete, accurate and precise, for the management of their real estate portfolio in Italy. The aim,   therefore, is to ensure the stability of the yields, to improve and maximize value   (where possible)   and,      overall, to make the investments successful.

 

In the Italian market, there is an intense competition, amongst the more popular national and international service providers to assist and accompany the Client through the various stages of the extraordinary activities, and often the ordinary management of an asset is neglected (wrongly considering it as the “poor" activity).

 

Our belief, instead, is that this activity should be considered the most important and strategic one, as it is the main reason of the investment for the Client: if the asset or corporate vehicle does not guarantee the forecasted returns (and more importantly, already paid, in terms of market capitalization) the investment becomes highly problematic.

 

This gap is not filled by the different management companies currently present in the Italian market, which usually guarantees an accurate rent collection exclusively in the context of a non-conflictual relationship with the tenants.

 

It  is in this context, thanks to the trust granted to us by some of   the most important players in the international market such as BMO Global Asset Management, LaSalle Investment Management, Catalyst Capital, Cordea Savills, Henderson, ADIA, ING, Pradera, Schroders, AEW Europe, P3 Logistic Parks as well as other Italian operators, that we have been able to implement our  business  model  and  our  management  strategy  providing  the supervision of specialized professionals such as managers, lawyers, and  engineers.  This is the added value of our activity.

 

The results have been evaluated by these investors extremely satisfactory, as is demonstrated by the gradual increase in the number of assets under management or under advisory at MF Law & Tax Firm and MF Real Estate Advisory.  The success and appreciation of the work carried out has also allowed us to diversify our Clients, by acquiring the management and advisory of various retail assets, ranging from shopping centers, retail parks, factory outlets, to warehouses, offices, up to the residential sectorCurrently, the company has more than € 800 million assets under management.
