25. What Should An Investor Do?
• Core funds, particularly newer vintage funds, will begin
to see more attractive pricing for acquisitions.
• Existing core assets will begin to see the benefit of
slowing development as we move into 2009-10.
• REITs in US, Europe and Asia take a beating during
2007-08. So, we are approaching the time for pension
funds, endowments, REITS, and other qualified investors
to rebalance/add to real estate positions.

for Berlin to acquire direct stakes in
German banks.
Instead, the German approach offers
€400Bn in guarantees for inter-bank loans
and another €80Bn for direct injections of
capital to restore weakened balance sheets
and purchase the toxic, illiquid assets.
