HTL Property has nabbed CBRE senior director Scott Callow to lead the company’s expansion into Victoria and related southern states.
Callow most recently worked with CBRE’s Victorian hotels capital markets investment and brokerage team, and brings more than 30 years of industry experience.
“We are absolutely delighted to announce Scott’s appointment, and in doing so the continuation of our very deliberate national rollout strategy,” said HTL property managing director, Andrew Jolliffe.
“Scott, having been at the forefront of multiple landmark hospitality transactions of both accommodation and traditional hotels in nature; and respectively across Victoria, South Australia and Tasmania, is beyond parallel when it comes to the high regard in which he is held within the asset class and its constituents,” Jolliffe commented.
Callow has sold a wide range of hotel, pub and tourism assets including 5-star, budget and serviced apartments, and has acted for private family offices and institutional clients alike.
Among his key deals negotiated with the $338 million transaction of Parliament Square in Hobart, the $142 million sale of the Aitken Hill Conference Centre in Melbourne’s northern suburb of Craigieburn, and the $170 million transaction of the Novotel and Ibis Melbourne Central.
“The opportunity to join such an entrepreneurial group of best in breed agents excites me, and I look forward to working alongside the team nationally to effect outstanding wealth creation opportunities for HTL clients,” Callow said.
HTL Property’s national accommodation director, Andrew Jackson said the agency has a “strong pipeline of assets to sell in Victoria, Tasmania and South Australia”.
