ABOUT US
What CRE Insider is
The cities being rebuilt around us deserve to be understood, not just reported. The people rebuilding them deserve to be seen, not just quoted. The money moving through them deserves to be explained, not mystified.
Who CRE Insider is for
We write for two readers.
One is already in the room deploying capital, sitting on investment committees, managing portfolios. They know the language. They want curation, authority, and genuine editorial judgement from someone who understands their world.
The other has built serious wealth outside this industry as an entrepreneur, an athlete, a business owner and knows that commercial real estate is one of the most powerful asset classes in the world. They want a way in. Not jargon. Not a sales pitch. A trusted guide who knows the people and understands the opportunity.
Inside Cities
Inside Cities is our documentary series about the evolution of British cities told by the investors, developers, and property professionals actively shaping them.
Inside Cities is produced by CRE Creative and published on CRE Insider. If you want to feature in the series or co-produce an episode, get in touch with Rico directly.

Rico Naylor
Founder / Editor
I grew up in Manchester looking up at office buildings convinced they weren't for people like me. I became a chartered surveyor anyway. Joined JLL, earned my MRICS chartership, and got inside the industry.
Once inside, I noticed the same problem from both sides. The people shaping commercial real estate were invisible. And the people who wanted to understand it had no credible way in.
CRE Insider is the editorial platform I built to close that gap.
CRE Creative is the content studio I built for the organisations who need their story told properly.
Inside Cities is where both come together: a documentary series about the evolution of British cities, produced by CRE Creative and published on CRE Insider.

Josh Newton
Head of Creative / Digital
I lead the creative and digital output at CRE Insider, from web development and design to the visual content that brings the brand to life. Coming from outside the commercial real estate world gives me a fresh perspective on how the industry can look and feel online.
After completing a full-time coding course, I’ve focused on blending clean, functional design with bold creative to help CRE Insider stand out on every screen.
