Underwriting Commercial Real Estate in a Dynamic Market

Case Studies

Beschreibung

A recurrent theme in Underwriting Commercial Real Estate in a Dynamic Market is that good thinking and good underwriting go together. This stands in contrast with "getting an answer" or even worse "reverse engineering" - getting to a solution by assuming that current trends in market pricing is best. The cases in Underwriting Commercial Real Estate in a Dynamic Market will force readers to recognize that there is no single answer, but rather a range of answers that will depend on numerous perspectives. And, in order to make valuation decisions, they will have to undertake a rich conversation about what constitutes a good trade-off and what does not. Cases can be structured for use with introductory material as well as advanced topics.

Rezensionen

"In this book Professor Redfearn has compiled a great teaching aid and complement to real estate finance and investments textbooks. The cases in this book are rich and vivid examples that take students into the nuts and bolts of the real world of real estate investing replete with the heterogeneity and complexity of the intersection of buildings, locations, cities, stakeholders, decision makers, and decisions. They provide a great framework for the Socratic teaching of fundamental principles and tools in a manner that stimulates students to think creatively, rigorously, and independently. I heartily endorse it. - David M. Geltner, MIT

I have already incorporated several into my course outlines." - David Ling,University of Florida

"Real estate itself isn't all that complicated. The relationships and deal structuring can be. Successful real estate professionals are those who can see through apparent complexity and recognize the underlying basics at work. I know several of the deals in this book, and the principals who made the right choices were those who could think well about their fundamentals and develop the conviction to act. This book will help students and professionals do both. - Wilbur Smith, President/Founder, Greenlaw Partners
