Sandra Zambrana Cortez

Ms. Sandra Zambrana Cortez took on the leadership of a renowned yacht club on Lake Starnberg at a young age. As her career progressed, she opted for a strategic realignment and transitioned into the real estate valuation industry. In this field, she contributed to the preparation of valuation reports for developed and undeveloped land, as well as property-equivalent rights, both domestically and internationally.

Her primary focus was on the appraisal of office properties, retail assets, logistics facilities, hotels, and residential buildings. The expertise she has acquired in real estate, project management, database administration, and administrative processes serves as a solid foundation for her diverse responsibilities in surety management within the real estate and construction sectors.

Beyond her professional endeavors, Sandra Zambrana Cortez is a devoted family person who values spending time with friends. She also has a deep passion for cooking and enjoys immersing herself in nature.
