Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What You Should Know AboutThis 2014 Report• Unique perspective. This report is different from other property management reports because it reflects input from independent owners and property managers, rather than full-service corporate housing companies. • Open participation. Our survey was open to anyone who owned or managed a furnished monthly residential rental in 2014 – not just to CHBO users. Our goal is to get a good snapshot of the independent corporate housing segment, so you can learn from relevant trends and be successful.• New terminology. Historically, we've referred to this market segment as the “by owner” segment. Because our survey gathers input from property managers who oversee individually owned real estate, as well as property owners, we've changed our terminology to the “independent corporate housing real estate” segment.

This book was released on 2014-01-13 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After a wild year in corporate housing in 2012 – complete with corporate housing mergers, new regulations on vacation rentals, and an uncertain economic climate – 2013 proved to be a fairly stable year in the corporate housing industry and the residential rental world. We hope it was a successful year for you.As you turn your attention to 2014, we're excited to share the 2013 “By Owner” Corporate Housing Annual Report. In the following pages, you'll find a summary and analysis of the results from our annual “By Owner” Corporate Housing Survey – now in its fifth year. In the pages to follow, you'll be able to draw upon the latest data, as well as comparisons and trends from recent years, to ensure 2014 is your most profitable year yet. What Makes This Report Different The “By Owner” Annual Report is different than other property management annual reports. It reflects findings from individual property owners of furnished monthly rentals, rather than from full-service, corporate housing companies. This report is designed to help individual owners, like you, learn from relevant trends in your marketplace and achieve greater success. If you took the time to complete our 2013 “By Owner” Survey, I thank you for your insight and candor. Once again, we had hundreds of people respond to our survey questions. The survey was made available to any person who owned or managed a furnished monthly residential rental in 2013 – not just to property owners who market their properties through the CHBO website.Outlook and Profitability• Outlook for 2014. 36% of respondents predict that 2014 will be better and more profitable than 2013 – similar to responses in 2012. Only 6.3% of respondents believe that 2014 will be less profitable, down from the 10% who had this outlook in 2012. • Profitability. 91% of respondents report that their properties were profitable or breakeven in 2013. Overall, this response has been nearly identical over the last three years.• Investment Real Estate Trends. For the fourth year in a row, there are more “Yes, I plan on buying more real estate” responses (45%) than “No, I'm done with real estate” responses (15%). The biggest variation in this question has been the steady 11% decrease in the “No, I'm done with real estate” responses since 2010.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About This 2015 Report * This report is different from other property management reports because it reflects input from independent owners and property managers, rather than full-service corporate housing companies. * Our survey was open to anyone who owned or managed a furnished, monthly residential rental in 2015 - not just to CHBO users. Our goal is to get the best snapshot of the independent corporate housing segment, so you can learn from relevant trends and be more successful. As you'll see in the coming pages, there continues to be a strong need for professional corporate housing real estate rentals from independent property owners and managers like you. And personally, I believe the clients who need this type of lodging are very different from those who want a shared rental or an extended stay hotel. Think about the difference between buying a new car from a dealership versus buying a used car from an individual. These are transactions for two types of customers with very different needs. Likewise, a relocating professional who has a high paying, high pressured job and needs to relocate his or her family of five to a new city is looking for corporate housing from a professional. That professional may be an experienced corporate housing business or a private owner who understands all the expectations of a business traveler as outlined in the Corporate Housing Providers Association and "The CHBO Corporate Housing Handbook." You're filling an essential need!

Download or read book Critical Mapping for Municipalist Mobilization written by Aruri, Natasha and published by Berlin Universities Publishing. This book was released on 2024-07-31 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: CMMM is a project that accompanied and was oriented by the priorities of municipalist activists in Belgrade, Berlin, and Barcelona. Spanning over 3.5 years from 2019 to 2023, it captured and supported the efforts of the Ministry of Space collective, AKS Gemeinwohl, Häuser Bewegen GIMA eG., Kollektiv Raumstation, and Observatori DESC to change the political paradigms shaping the contemporary housing emergency in the three cities. Coordinated by K LAB (TU Berlin) and supported by the Robert Bosch Stiftung, the CMMM team employed various formats of critical mapping to display the legislations, policies, events, hierarchies, as well as the main actors and factors that are shaping the housing crisis. Next to selected examples of how critical mapping has been applied by peers and artists in the three cities, this book scripts the process through which our team created three interactive maps “How (un)affordable is housing in Belgrade?”, “Who buys Berlin?”, and “Stop Evictions!” for Barcelona, which can be explored on the project’s website: cmmm.eu. CMMM‘s outputs intend to support existing and future municipalist activists and collectives pushing to create policy alternatives that integrate the “housing as a right” principle. We hope that our work inspires activists and engaged professionals to employ critical mapping in their endeavors to inform and nudge public opinion, towards advancing demands for justice in the urban and beyond. CMMM ist ein Projekt, das die Prioritäten von städtischen bzw. nachbarschaftlichen Aktivisten in Belgrad, Berlin und Barcelona begleitet und sich an ihnen orientiert. Es erstreckte sich über dreieinhalb Jahre von 2019 bis 2023 und erfasste und unterstützte die Bemühungen von Ministry of Space collective, AKS Gemeinwohl, Häuser Bewegen GIMA eG, Kollektiv Raumstation und Observatori DESC, die politischen Paradigmen, die den Wohnungsnotstand in den drei Städten prägen, durch verschiedene Formate der kritischen Kartierung zu verändern. Unter der Koordination des LABOR K (TU Berlin) und mit Hilfe eines Stipendiums der Robert Bosch Stiftung haben wir Gesetze, Politiken, Ereignisse, Hierarchien und einige der wichtigsten Akteure und Faktoren, die die Wohnsituation prägen, kartiert. Darüber hinaus enthält dieses Buch ausgewählte Beispiele dafür, wie kritisches Mapping in den drei Städten angewandt wurde, und es beschreibt, wie unser Team die drei interaktiven Karten "How (un)affordable is housing in Belgrade?", "Who buys Berlin?" und "Stop Evictions!" für Barcelona erstellt hat, die auf der Projektwebsite cmmm.eu eingesehen werden können. Durch die verschiedenen CMMM-Materialien in diesem Buch und auf der Projektwebsite stellen wir Informationen zur Verfügung, um heutige und künftige Bewegungen und Kollektive die darauf drängen, politische Alternativen zu schaffen, und die das Prinzip “Recht auf Wohnen" in politische Programme zu integrieren versuchen, zu unterstützen. Zudem hoffen wir, Aktivist*innen, engagierte Fachleute, Wissenschaftler*innen und andere dazu zu inspirieren mit Hilfe von kritischem Mapping die öffentliche Meinung und die allgemeine Wahrnehmung zu beeinflussen, und den Diskurs zu beflügeln um Forderungen nach Gerechtigkeit in der Stadt und darüber hinaus voranzutreiben.

Download or read book The Shriver Report written by Maria Shriver and published by Rosetta Books. This book was released on 2014-01-11 with total page 685 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Facts, figures, and essays on women and poverty by Barbara Ehrenreich, Kirsten Gillibrand, LeBron James, and other high-profile contributors. Fifty years after President Lyndon B. Johnson called for a War on Poverty and enlisted Sargent Shriver to oversee it, the most important social issue of our day is once again the dire economic straits of millions of Americans. One in three live in poverty or teeter on the brink—and seventy million are women and the children who depend on them. The fragile economic status of millions of American women is the shameful secret of the modern era—yet these women are also our greatest hope for change, and our nation’s greatest undervalued asset. The Shriver Report: A Woman’s Nation Pushes Back from the Brink asks—and answers—big questions. Why are millions of women financially vulnerable when others have made such great progress? Why are millions of women struggling to make ends meet even though they are hard at work? What is it about our nation—government, business, family, and even women themselves—that drives women to the financial brink? And what is at stake? To forge a path forward, this book brings together a power-packed roster of big thinkers and talented contributors, in a volume that combines academic research, personal reflections, authentic photojournalism, groundbreaking poll results, and insights from frontline workers; political, religious, and business leaders; and major celebrities—all focused on a single issue of national importance: women and the economy. “A startling wake-up call for policymakers and anyone hoping to survive a culture that siphons wealth upward to a very powerful few.” —Booklist Contributors include: Carol Gilligan, PhD * Barbara Ehrenreich * Beyoncé Knowles-Carter * LeBron James * Anne-Marie Slaughter * Kirsten Gillibrand * Hillary Rodham Clinton * Tory Burch * Sister Joan Chittister * Arne Duncan * Kathleen Sibelius * Howard Schultz * and more!

Download or read book Irrational Exuberance written by Robert J. Shiller and published by Broadway. This book was released on 2001 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a new Afterword on the current state of the stock market, the ongoing debate over the "new economy," and the larger implications of "irrational exuberance." In this controversial, hard-hitting account of today's explosive market, Robert J. Shiller, a leading expert on market volatility, evokes Alan Greenspan's infamous 1996 reference, "irrational exuberance," to explain the alternately soaring and declining stock market. Shiller's unconventional yet persuasive argument credits an unprecedented confluence of events with driving stocks to uncharted heights, and he analyzes the structural, cultural, and psychological factors behind these levels of growth not reflected in any other sector of the economy. Now more relevant than ever, this analysis is both chilling and convincing-a must-read for the individual investor, the policy maker, and the investment professional.
