JLL is the region’s top dealmaker by volume for 2015.

For the fifth year in a row, JLL has been named the top real estate investment advisory firm in Asia Pacific, based on the total value of sales completed, according to data from Real Capital Analytics (RCA).

RCA is an independent body that monitors global real estate transaction volumes. JLL has been ranked in first place since RCA began releasing data in 2011.

In 2015, the consultancy advised on investment deals worth US$16.6 billion, which corresponds to a 27.8 percent market share in the region.

JLL also took top spot in the hotel sector for the fifth year in a row, with a total of US$2.9 billion in hotel sales last year, representing a regional market share of 57 percent.

“2015 was a stellar year for real estate investment in Asia Pacific thanks to continuing demand from investors wanting to buy into the growth story in the region,” said Stuart Crow, Head of Asia Pacific Capital Markets, JLL.
