Property portfolio expert joins housing team
Bevan Brittan has expanded its housing team with the addition of property portfolio specialist Rebecca Gibson. She joins as a legal director based in London and will work nationally across the firm’s client base.
Rebecca joins from Trowers & Hamlins, and brings expertise in property portfolio acquisitions, sales and swaps. In her career of more than two decades, she has worked for a large number of registered providers in the portfolio transactions and stock swap market, on over 80 transactions acting on both the seller and acquirer side, and advised at a senior level on large portfolio transactions and stock swaps.
She also works on property sales, acquisitions and development projects including affordable housing projects, extra care schemes, care homes and key worker and student accommodation.
Louise Leaver, partner and joint head of the housing team at Bevan Brittan, said: ‘Rebecca is a renowned and experienced expert in this field and enhances even further the experience we have in the team. This positions us exceptionally well to provide this highly specialised advice to a growing range of clients.’
As well as Rebecca’s arrival, the team is also celebrating the recruitment of two new experienced housing finance and portfolio paralegals, Ezi Omoduemuke and Samia Mohamed.
