Book Development Involvement and Property Share Performance

Download or read book Development Involvement and Property Share Performance written by Dirk Brounen and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper concerns the dilemma whether regulators should preclude tax-exempt property investment companies from engaging in property development activities. We analyze the economic effects of combinations of property investment and property development by looking at the performance of an international set of property investment companies with varying degrees of involvement in property development. We study the five most important listed property markets in the world: the United States, Hong Kong, Australia, the United Kingdom, and France. We examine the extent to which property investment companies participate in development projects by dividing the books value of their development projects by total assets. These development ratios yield remarkable differences both within and across national samples, with national averages varying between 2.23% for the United States and 21.34% for our Hong Kong sample. Analysis of property share performance yields results that consistently indicate that the cluster of property companies most involved in development projects is associated with both the highest total return and the highest systematic risk. We also find a weak positive link between development involvement and the Jensen alpha of property shares. The statistical significance of this link varies by country, with strong results for Hong Kong and Australia and less compelling results for The United States, the United Kingdom and France. Besides analyzing the stock performance of the companies in our samples we also focus on their operational profitability. Again we consistently find both the highest and most volatile performance for companies actively participating in property development projects.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The twin processes of planning and property development are inextricably linked – it’s not possible to carry out a development strategy without an understanding of the planning process, and equally planners need to know how real estate developers do their job. This third edition of Urban Planning and Real Estate Development guides students through the procedural and practical aspects of developing land from the point of view of both planner and developer. The planning system is explained, from the increasing emphasis on spatial planning at a regional level down to the detailed perspective of the development control process and the specialist requirements of historic buildings and conservation areas. At the same time the authors explain the entire development process from inception through appraisal, valuation and financing to completion and disposal. This is an invaluable textbook for real estate and planning students, and helps to meet the requirements of the RICS and RTPI Assessment of Professional Competence.

This initiative aims at bringing together a number of leading researchers in the field for a short, intensive conference. The 2000 Symposium, which was hosted by Maastricht University in the Netherlands in June of that year, is the first in an annual series of such conferences, which will alternate between Maastricht University and Cambridge University.

Book Property Investment and Property Development Firm Performance Around IPO and Rights Offerings

Download or read book Property Investment and Property Development Firm Performance Around IPO and Rights Offerings written by Marcus Gerbich and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In contrast to the well documented underperformance of equity issuers, Property Investment firms undertaking IPOs and rights issues have performed indistinguishably from similar non-issuing firms. Property Development companies that issued equity over the same period performed significantly worse than non-issuing firms. The major difference between Property Development and Property Investment firms is that Property Investment firms hold portfolios of real estate assets and thus have more certain prices. The lower pricing uncertainty of Property Investment firms results in normal long-run performance. Tests of the cognitive bias hypothesis provide only weak support of this explanation, while size and book-market effects are unable to account for the performance of Property Investment and Development companies. The findings of underperformance for rights issues suggest hat timing equity issues to take advantage of new shareholders may not be linked to the existence of cognitive bias. Importantly for the international growth in securitised real estate markets no evidence is found suggesting equity issues of securitised real estate firms should be avoided.
