Real Estate Analysis: A Financial Toolkit presents economic and financial models, applications and insights, packaged as a toolkit for analysts and other participants in commercial and residential real estate markets. Participants in property markets - analysts, brokers, commentators as well as investors and tenants move seamlessly across a range of physical and financial markets. They employ models that illuminate market activity: the tools of supply and demand to explain rental trends and to forecast vacancy rates and construction cycles; forecasts of macro-economists foreshadow shoppers' spending behaviour in shopping malls and the growth in demand for office space; capital market arithmetic to apply discount and capitalisation rates. Currently these topics are scattered through textbooks. This book brings these tools together and situates them in a real estate market context.. Topics addressed include: The interaction of markets - capital, space and physical assets Debt, the cost of capital and investment hurdle rates Real options - valuing lease contracts and land values Risk - what counts, what doesn't (systemic and non-systemic risk) Discounted rates and capitalisation rates - interpreting spreads to sovereign bond yields Externalities - why do markets "fail"; what are the "solutions"?
