Real Estate & Development
Places built to matter for a century.
Overview
Develop, hold, operate
Blanco Estates develops and holds property the way the group approaches every business: buy well, build carefully, keep for generations. Established in 2021, the division has assembled a €3.2 billion gross asset value portfolio spanning 2.1 million m² of mixed-use, office and industrial space.
We are developers who stay. Rather than sell on completion, we retain and manage what we build — which changes every decision, from the thickness of a facade to the species planted in a courtyard. Over 90% of our completed space is certified LEED Gold or better.

Mixed-use urban districts
Our signature format: walkable quarters combining residential, workspace, retail and public realm, master-planned in-house and delivered in phases over seven to ten years.
Prime commercial offices
A 380,000 m² office portfolio in Madrid, Lisbon and Dubai leased to banking, legal and technology tenants on a weighted-average lease term of 8.4 years.
Industrial & logistics parks
Purpose-built distribution estates adjacent to our own port and rail infrastructure — a deliberate synergy with Blanco Logistics that keeps the parks at near-full occupancy.
