Property agency Cohalan Downing, founded in Cork city 45 years ago, has boosted its commercial property wing with the appointment of the vastly experienced chartered surveyors Margaret Kelleher and Edward Hanafin as directors.

Mr Hanafin and Ms Kelleher each had more than 30 years experience with national agency Lisney, serving as its Cork office directors, whilst Ms Kelleher had been chair of Lisney for the past four years; they departed that firm’s offices at 1 South Mall in a surprise exit in June of this year.

Confirmation of their new roles in Cohalan Downing now comes from managing director Brian Olden: “The strategic addition of Margaret and Edward to our senior leadership team further strengthens our commercial property division, which provides a comprehensive service offering across the Munster region. Their expertise and leadership will enhance our ability to meet the evolving needs of our diverse client base. Together with Rob Coughlan, director, they will continue to deliver the high standard of service and tailored commercial property advice that we are known for,” he commented.

Cohalan Downing was founded in 1979 by Maurice Cohalan and Malcolm Tyrrell in 1979, with John Downing who subsequently departed to establish his own practice.

MD Brian Olden added: “Both Margaret and Edward are highly experienced chartered surveyors and respected property professionals with comprehensive expertise across all sectors of the commercial property industry.

“Over the years, they have played pivotal roles in numerous high-profile commercial transactions and developments, consistently demonstrating their in-depth knowledge of the sector.”

Both are on the panel of Arbitrators and Independent Experts for the Society of Chartered Surveyors Ireland (SCSI) “a reflection of their credibility and professionalism in the field”.
