real estate with heart, vision, and purpose.
Who we are
Newly born from the union of Cobelpro and Tribeca — two entities with over 30 years of expertise in real estate — Wanaka Partners is a fully integrated real estate partner that dares to think differently, act responsibly, and design ideas with purpose. For us, real estate isn’t just about assets or structures. It’s about shaping lives, inspiring, and creating meaningful places that connect people, ideas, and communities.
Our vision & mission
At Wanaka Partners, we redefine real estate by creating meaningful places that inspire, connect communities, and balance sustainability with innovation. We envision a world where real estate goes beyond structures — real estate with heart, vision, and purpose, crafting spaces that truly matter.
Our mission is to unlock the full potential of real estate through integrated services and responsible practices. By connecting people, ideas, and opportunities, we aim to deliver lasting value for investors, tenants, and communities. With a strong commitment to sustainability, innovation, and the power of collaboration, we shape spaces that serve today’s needs and prepare for tomorrow.
What we do
Real Estate Management
We take a proactive and innovative approach to unlock the hidden potential of commercial real estate, ensuring properties adapt to meet future needs while achieving long-term value for our clients, their users, and the wider community.
Capital Solutions
We provide tailored and creative solutions for complex European real estate transactions across all asset classes. Focusing on opportunities beyond the reach of large investment banks and regional lenders, we offer a forward-thinking, investor-centric approach.
Fund Management
We offer alternative investment fund management services for a diverse range of funds investing in real estate across Europe. Key services include portfolio and risk management, as well as fund administration, all designed to ensure transparency and risk-adjusted returns.
The story behind our name
Our name, drawn from Wanaka — a serene lake and town in New Zealand — symbolises the balance we strive to achieve in our work. Wanaka’s blend of tranquil water, forest, and mountains serves as a reminder of how natural balance inspires lasting harmony. For us, it reflects the ecosystems we aim to create: spaces where modern living, working, and being coexist meaningfully, deeply connected to their surroundings.
Our values
Commitment
Innovation
Impact
Resilience
Trust
Respect
Commitment is how we show up every day. We push boundaries, refine our craft, and invest in the knowledge, tools, and infrastructure that make a real difference. But above all, we are committed to our people; creating a culture where our team can grow, perform, challenge ideas, and feel heard. We build relationships rooted in trust, care, and respect. In every decision we make, in every project we take on, we stay true to who we are: driven, responsible, and always looking ahead.
Innovation is at the heart of everything we do. We challenge conventional thinking, push boundaries, and craft fresh solutions - both in how we redefine real estate and how we collaborate as a team. By encouraging curiosity and welcoming new perspectives, we create solutions that inspire, connect, and leave a lasting impact. We look beyond the present, creating solutions, strategies, and spaces that anticipate future needs and remain relevant and meaningful for years to come. With a bold mindset and an openness to new ideas, we challenge assumptions and seek new possibilities. This mindset drives our team, inspiring proactive thinking, continuous learning, and the confidence to shape the future rather than wait for it.
We consider real estate as a powerful tool for shaping a better future. Through our sustainable practices, we create spaces that contribute to the wellbeing of communities, drive the evolution of neighbourhoods, and actively reduce real estate’s environmental impact. Guided by purpose, our approach is our way of leaving a positive, lasting mark — a contribution for today and tomorrow. Moreover, we approach every project and partnership with purpose and longevity in mind. Every decision we make reflects our commitment to creating meaningful, lasting impact for investors, tenants, communities, and our own team.
Resilience means growing stronger through change and facing challenges with confidence. By integrating sustainability and adaptability into everything we do, we ensure our projects grow with purpose, meeting today’s needs while creating opportunities for the future. As a team, we embrace challenges, support each other, and turn obstacles into opportunities for growth.
Trust defines how we work and who we are. By acting with integrity and staying true to our commitments and values, we build strong, lasting partnerships. More than just a service provider, we are a dedicated and reliable partner, deeply invested in the success of everyone we collaborate with.
Respect guides how we work, create, and connect. It means valuing the people, places, and possibilities we work with. From the ecosystems we nurture to the solutions we deliver, we value the connections that create harmony and elevate every experience with us.
