About
A broker who knows Abu Dhabi block by block.
I focus exclusively on commercial property in the capital — offices and industrial space. Clients come to me for straight advice, deep local data and the persistence to get deals over the line.

I'm Anthony Garisto, a commercial real estate broker at JLL in Abu Dhabi. I work on offices and industrial space for companies setting up, expanding or relocating in the capital, and for owners letting or selling them.
To date that has meant 374,067 sq ft (34,752 sqm) of space leased, with a combined contract value of AED 236M ($64M USD).
My approach is simple: understand the business first, then find the space or tenant that actually fits — and negotiate on the terms that matter, not just headline rent.

Off the clock
I'm from Canada and I still play ice hockey — currently with the Dubai Mighty Camels in the EIHL. Off the ice, I'm usually out on my motorcycle.
