Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook serves as a guide to real estate students and educators on the various property innovations and digital technologies that continue to shape the property industry. The advancement of PropTech in the last few decades has led to significant changes in real estate systems, operations, and practice, and this new textbook provides insight on the past, present, and future of PropTech innovations that have spread across the value chain of real estate through planning, development, management, finance, investment, operations, and transactions. The textbook approaches this subject from the real estate components, asset classes, and submarkets and links them to the associated innovations and digital technologies. It concludes by reviewing the role of education, innovation, skill development, and professionalism as major elements of the future of real estate operations and practice. This book’s unique contributions are in putting the “property” element at the forefront and then illustrating how technology can enhance the various areas of real estate; the focus on how the different innovations and technologies can enhance the economic, environmental, social, and physical efficiency of real estate; and its coverage of some non‐technological innovations like flexible working and more practical areas of real estate innovation such as skills, employability, creativity, and education. It contains 21 case studies and 29 case summaries, which can serve as practice exercises for students. This book will be useful to students in helping them build a knowledge base and understanding of innovation and digital technologies in the industry. Real estate educators can use the textbook as a guide to incorporate real estate innovation and digital technologies into their current teaching and also to develop their real estate curricula through PropTech‐related modules and courses where necessary. It will also be valuable to real estate researchers in search of the theoretical and conceptual linkages, as well as industry practitioners who seek insight into the current and future potential of digital technologies and their applications to real estate operations and practice.

Download or read book REAL ESTATE written by Prabhu TL and published by NestFame Creations Pvt Ltd.. This book was released on with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Property, land, buildings, air rights above the land, and subsurface rights below the land are all examples of real estate. Real, or tangible, property is referred to by this phrase. Real estate also refers to the production, purchase, and sale of property as a business word. It has an impact on the US economy because it is a key generator of economic growth. Owners of real estate were formerly denied voting privileges under the United States Constitution. Real Estate Definition and Examples Real estate, often known as "real property," is formally defined as land plus any other physical improvement that may be built on or placed on it. The enhancement could be a new structure or a new road. A septic system, for example, is an example of anything that has been placed into the ground. It is said that land with any of these constructions has been "improved." When it doesn't have them, it's considered "enhanced." Your home, as well as any vacant land you may own, is real estate. A skyscraper in New York City or an area of undeveloped desert land that can't be built on are both examples of real estate. What Makes Real Estate Work? Because real estate does not just exist, it has several sides. It has the ability to progress from unimproved to better. It is available for purchase or sale. It could be owned by the government, a corporation, or a private individual. However, certain elements can have a direct impact on the economy, such as consistent land improvement and the individuals and companies that allow ownership transfers. Building of New Structures The construction of new homes is a crucial category. Construction of single-family homes, townhouses, and condominiums are all included. The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) publishes data on home sales and prices on a monthly basis. New house sales statistics are a leading economic indicator. For new properties sold, it takes four months to establish a pattern. The NAHB also keeps track of new home starts, or the number of new home construction projects that have broken ground. Agents of Real Estate Individuals, businesses, and investors use real estate brokers to buy and sell homes. Typically, the industry is separated into specialisations. Through the Multiple Listing Service or their professional contacts, sellers or listing agents assist in the search for purchasers. They price your home using "comparables," or "comps," which are listings of recently sold properties that are similar to yours. They may assist you in sprucing up your home so that it appeals to potential purchasers. They aid in discussions with the buyer or the buyer's agent in order to obtain the best price. For the home buyer, buyer's agents provide similar services. They are familiar with the local market and can locate a property that satisfies your most stringent requirements. They also "do comps," which is the practise of comparing costs. This enables them to direct you to places that are cost-effective. Buyers' agents represent you in negotiations, bringing up reasons why the seller should accept a lower offer. They can assist you with the legal aspects of the transaction, such as title searches, inspections, and financing. REALTORS are real estate agents that desire to improve their professionalism.

Book excerpt: Note: This is the full colour print version of the book.'Technology will change real estate and however you react to it, you must understand what is going on. This book will help you to do just that.' Dan Hughes, CEO Liquid REI (formerly of RICS).#PropTech: a guide to how property technology is changing how we live, work and invest, is the second title to be published by Richard W J Brown, a.k.a. The Property Voice, following the successful publication of Property Investor Toolkit a few years ago.#PropTech was initially inspired from personal curiosity after Richard started to observe an emerging and growing trend in his industry. The advent of new technologies in other industry sectors, such as e-commerce, financial services, application development and mobile communications started to crossover into the real estate property sector. The real estate property sector is often seen as slow-moving; however, some clear influences are starting to bring about change at a more rapid pace now more than ever. There is a push and pull effect. The push comes from the need for more housing, skills shortages and limited resources generally. The pull comes from homeowners, tenants, developers and investors who want to be more productive, profitable and transfer their experiences elsewhere into their property interests.#PropTech is written by a property investor, homeowner and occasional Airbnb guest with a broad audience in mind. If you are involved with or have an interest in the real estate property sector, either personally as a landlord, homeowner or industry professionally, then this book will have something in it for you!Here are the main chapter headings from within the book:*Construction Technology (ConTech)*Smart Homes & The Internet of Things*Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Tools and Apps*Audio-visual Advances*The Sharing Economy*Financial Technology (FinTech)*Cryptocurrency and The Blockchain*Education Technology (EdTech)*The Big Picture Smart Cities, & MegatrendsPause for a moment and consider that in 2018, when this book was written Rightmove, will have its 18th Birthday, the iPhone is only 10 years old, Airbnb is just 9 years old and Purplebricks is still pre-school at 4 years old. To help put this into context, now we have the likes of Facebook and Google building homes and communities, robot bricklayers and 3D printers that can cut housebuilding from months to just days, 20 million Alexa devices sold allowing people to literally speak commands to their homes, all under the backdrop of a massive growth in Big Data, with 90% of all the world's data ever created coming in the past two years alone! Breakthrough technologies, such as the Internet of Things, Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence are already starting to generate useful applications and will continue to do so. PropTech, is a huge subject area that is going to change property investment, development and indeed our wider lives in myriad ways. There will certainly be some bumps along the way but, PropTech has the potential to create huge opportunity for homeowners, investors and developers alike. However, as with the Internet revolution, there will be winners and losers, and often the first one through the door is the one that gets shot!So, please join me, along with the insights of no less than seventeen PropTech founders, academics, influencers and all-round-know-their-stuff 'subject matter experts', as we lift the lid on what is sure to be a significant area of growth and change for real estate property in the not so distant future. For sure, one thing is for certain...change is coming, whether we like it or not! So, it is probably better to at least be aware of the changes that PropTech is likely to bring, then at least we can prepare, profit or protect as appropriate.You can see more about Richard's work and industry contribution as The Property Voice at www.thepropertyvoice.net.

Download or read book Transforming Japanese Business written by Anshuman Khare and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-12-06 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explores how the business transformation taking place in Japan is influenced by the digital revolution. Its chapters present approaches and examples from sectors commonly understood to be visible arenas of digital transformation—3D printing and mobility, for instance—as well as some from not-so-obvious sectors, such as retail, services, and fintech. Business today is facing unprecedented change especially due to the adoption of new, digital technologies, with a noticeable transformation of manufacturing and services. The changes have been brought by advanced robotics, the emergence of artificial intelligence, and digital networks that are growing in size and capability as the number of connected devices explodes. In addition, there are advanced manufacturing and collaborative connected platforms, including machine-to-machine communications. Adoption of digital technology has caused process disruptions in both the manufacturing and services sectors and led to new business models and new products. While examining the preparedness of the Japanese economy to embrace these changes, the book explores the impact of digitally influenced changes on some selected sectors from a Japanese perspective. It paints a big picture in explaining how a previously manufacturing-centric, successful economy adopts change to retain and rebuild success in the global environment. Japan as a whole is embracing, yet also avoiding—innovating but also restricting—various forms of digitalization of life and work. The book, with its 17 chapters, is a collaborative effort of individuals contributing diverse points of view as technologists, academics, and managers.

Download or read book Icebergs Zombies and the Ultra Thin written by Matthew Soules and published by Chronicle Books. This book was released on 2021-05-04 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Soules's excellent book makes sense of the capitalist forces we all feel but cannot always name... Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin arms architects and the general public with an essential understanding of how capitalism makes property. Required reading for those who think tomorrow can be different from today."— Jack Self, coeditor of Real Estates: Life Without Debt In Icebergs, Zombies, and the Ultra Thin, Matthew Soules issues an indictment of how finance capitalism dramatically alters not only architectural forms but also the very nature of our cities and societies. We rarely consider architecture to be an important factor in contemporary economic and political debates, yet sparsely occupied ultra-thin "pencil towers" develop in our cities, functioning as speculative wealth storage for the superrich, and cavernous "iceberg" homes extend architectural assets many stories below street level. Meanwhile, communities around the globe are blighted by zombie and ghost urbanism, marked by unoccupied neighborhoods and abandoned housing developments. Learn how the use of architecture as an investment tool has accelerated in recent years, heightening inequality and contributing to worldwide financial instability: • See how investment imperatives shape what and how we build, changing the very structure of our communities • Delve into high-profile projects, like the luxury apartments of architect Rafael Viñoly's 432 Park Avenue • Understand the convergence of technology, finance, and spirituality, which together are configuring the financialized walls within which we eat, sleep, and work Includes dozens of photos and drawings of architectural phenomena that have changed the way we live. Essential reading for anyone interested in architecture, design, economics, and understanding the way our world is formed.

Download or read book When Housing Markets Meet Shadow Banking Bubbles Mortgages Securitization And Fintech written by Rose Neng Lai and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2024-03-06 with total page 362 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contends that the housing markets and shadow banking have been involved in a kind of 'dance' over the last two decades. It traces this dance to be between the roles of mortgage markets since the 1980s in both the US and China and the developments of securitization and 'shadow banks.' It gives side-by-side comparisons between the two and suggests that house price dynamics have been similar, but also quite different. Both had booms. The US had a bubble that burst around 2007 — after prices became quite high relative to rents and then crashed. However, Chinese housing markets, which had a similar run-up, did not have a burst bubble. Rather, the rising property values appear to have been from space becoming more valuable as reflected in rent growth. In the US, prices chased prices; in China, prices chased rents.Mortgage markets were more complicated, beginning with the securitization in the US, and the rise of shadow banks that both led and followed. The US used shadow banks to hold pieces of securitization deals and funded them with deposit-like debt. These pieces were fragile and their collapse caused 'silent runs,' which were instrumental in the ensuing crash. China's shadow banks were more like traditional intermediaries, unattached to securitization. Their liabilities were mostly not short-term, as was the case with US shadow banks. So, runs were not a problem, but getting the market to work efficiently was.The markets have evolved. And while the music has changed, the dance is not over.
