Max Birkin

Acquisition Manager @ URECO Property

About

Real estate professional with experience across residential acquisitions, development analysis, and market research, supported by an MSc in Real Estate Finance at Henley Business School. My background spans site sourcing, feasibility analysis, and acquisitions across residential development projects. I have a particular interest in Living sectors, including residential, single-family housing, BTR and hospitality-led real estate, with a growing focus on how institutional capital and operational platforms are shaping the future of housing and real assets across the UK and Europe. Alongside my professional experience, I hold a First Class degree in English Literature, which has strengthened my written communication and analytical skills, and I enjoy combining commercial analysis with relationship management, market insight, and real-world project delivery.
