February 2016 Real Estate Market Update
This document provides a summary of housing market indicators and trends in February 2016. It includes data on existing home and new home sales, average days on market, mortgage rates, home prices, inventory levels, distressed sales, first-time buyers, home affordability, and mortgage availability. The overall message is that 2015 was a strong year for the housing market recovery, with existing home sales at the highest level since 2006 and other indicators also showing improvement from prior years. However, inventory remains low in many markets.
Annie Williams Real Estate Report - Dec 2015
- Housing affordability in California is expected to experience long-term issues due to high home prices, not enough homes being built, and rising rents making it difficult for many to save for a down payment.
- In many California markets, including the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California, the luxury home market remains active with Asian buyers continuing to fuel demand. However, overall home sales are down while prices continue rising.
- A lack of housing inventory is seen as a key factor sustaining high home prices in San Francisco, with the median home price rising 13% year-over-year and staying over $1 million for most of the past two years.
AnnieWilliams 2017 1st Quarter Report
The San Francisco real estate market was very slow in
January, picked up a bit in February, and then took off
in March. It appears that this upward trend will carry into the
second quarter of 2017. Already in the first couple weeks
of April we’re seeing an acceleration in activity.
05 tmire may_ca_2011
The housing market in Canada continues its relatively balanced trajectory with home sales stable and prices rising moderately. Economic growth forecasts were revised upwards and interest rates are expected to rise gradually. Overall the market is expected to remain balanced in the near future with opportunities for both home buyers and sellers.
This Month in Real Estate- U.S. Market: April 2011
The housing market continues to gradually improve without government support. While home prices and sales have declined compared to last year, inventory levels have returned to pre-tax credit levels. Low interest rates are encouraging buyers, but are expected to rise over 2012. Employment growth needs to continue for a full housing recovery, as jobs enable people to buy homes. Stimulus efforts will gradually wind down, but buyers still have favorable conditions in the market.
July 2013 Barrington Area Market Report
The real estate market in Barrington continued to show strong momentum in July. The median home sales price rose 14.9% year-over-year to $500,000, the highest point since 2011. The number of closed sales increased 66.7% compared to the previous July, reflecting record high activity. The market favored sellers in the lower price range below $345,000, where inventory was low at 4 months and sales prices rose 23% with market time dropping 55%. The middle price range from $549,900 to $849,899 saw higher inventory of 9 months and slower sales, favoring buyers. Overall inventory declined for the 4th straight month to a 7.6 month supply.
05 tmire may_us_2011
The document summarizes housing market trends in March 2011. It notes that home sales were up 3.7% from the previous month but down 6.3% from March 2010. Home prices rebounded 2.2% but remain below year-ago levels. Inventory levels remained stable compared to the previous month. Mortgage rates have remained stable around 4.8% and housing affordability continues at record levels. The document also provides updates on government incentives and topics for home buyers, sellers and owners such as staging a home for sale.
Rebgv stats-pkg-june-2019
Home sales and prices decreased in June 2019 across the Metro Vancouver housing market. Total home sales fell 14.4% from the previous June and 21.3% from May 2019, reaching the lowest level for June since 2000. Meanwhile, the supply of homes for sale increased 25.3% over the previous June and 1.9% over May, giving buyers the most selection in 5 years. As a result of the sales decline and rising supply, the MLS Home Price Index fell 9.6% from June 2018 and the composite benchmark price dropped below $1 million for the first time since May 2017.

Annie Williams Market Trends March-April 2015
As we’ve mentioned many times, inventory of single-family, re-sale homes, condos and rentals in San Francisco is very low. Fortunately, there are a slew of new buildings in
some stage of planning or construction. At last count, we identified 23 new condo projects around the city. There have been or will shortly be 2,498 new condo/loft units on the market. There are 141 more units in the proposal stage.
This should alleviate some of the pricing pressure in San Francisco.
CANADIAN HOME SALES ACTIVITY IMPROVES IN JUNE - 16 JULY 2018

Mortgage rates hit all-time lows according to Freddie Mac's weekly survey. The 30-year fixed rate fell to 4.15% and the 15-year fixed rate fell to 3.36%. These are the lowest rates since Freddie Mac began tracking in 1971. The drop came after the Federal Reserve announced it would keep short-term rates low for at least two more years due to the economy's slow recovery.

June 2013 Barrington Market Report
While home sale prices rose 8.3% in June continuing positive momentum from the spring, the trend is still early according to 12-month averages. The number of closed sales rose 47.6% to a five-year high of 94 homes. Market time to sell a home fell 31% to 159 days on average and homes are selling closer to their original list price, both signs of a strong, seller's market. Inventory continues to fall across all price ranges, especially for distressed properties, leading to bidding wars and homes going under contract within a week of listing. The report recommends that both buyers and sellers act now to take advantage of low interest rates and limited housing supply.

The very first book I read that started me on the path to become a real estate investor, was Rich Dad, Poor Dad. In that book, Robert Kiyosaki uses an analogy on how wealth is built.
Think about wealth as water and your finances are a bucket holding that water. Most people have one tap filling that bucket - their job. But they’ve got lots of holes in that bucket - bills, car payments, their mortgage, and **TAXES**. To build wealth, you’ve got to turn on as many taps as possible and close as many holes in your bucket as possible.
Improper tax planning can be one of the largest drains on your real estate investments, so join us on March 20th and lean how to pay less tax! We’ll be covering topics like:
Corporations - When should I incorporate? Should I buy in a corporation? Taxes on corporations? Active vs passive income? Business corps - using profits to invest?
Estate Planning - How do I pass my assets down to the next generation?
Taxation Best Practices - What is building depreciation and why is it important? What is eligible for interest deductibility? How do I deduct the interest of my HELOC?
It’s essential to understand these things even if you only have one property. If you’ve already accumulated a few properties, it’s even more important to correct any mistakes you’ve made. Bad planning can completely kill some investment business cases, home flipping for example, so come learn how to do things right with one of the best in the industry!

FNB Estate Agents Survey_Buy-to-Let
The FNB Estate Agents Survey shows that buy-to-let home buying has stabilized at lower levels compared to previous years. While buy-to-let demand makes up a smaller percentage of total home sales nationally, demand has recovered somewhat in coastal regions like Cape Town and Durban. Investment property owners appear to be weathering current market conditions of low rental inflation and slow capital growth by holding onto their properties rather than selling.
investment palm beach county-3
This document summarizes a real estate investment program in Palm Beach County, Florida. The program allows investors to purchase single-family homes in desirable neighborhoods that are then leased to qualified tenants. Investors benefit from rental income, tax advantages, and potential capital gains when properties are sold. A property management company handles all aspects of the investment, including identifying properties, financing, maintenance, and tenant screening. Strong demand for rental properties in the area has led to high occupancy rates and rental price increases in recent years, while home values have appreciated an average of 11% annually over the past five years.
Buoyed by stronger economy, California housing market accelerates in March as...
California's housing market continued to strengthen in March, with both home sales and prices increasing from the previous month and year. Existing home sales rose 6.3% annually to 391,680 units. The median home price jumped 9.2% from February to $468,550, the highest in seven months. Inventory remained tight, with months of supply falling to 3.8 from 5 months in February. Stronger economic conditions and job growth are contributing to the accelerating housing market.
Tips for Successful Real Estate Investment
While most real estate investment advisors always stress the importance of location, there several other factors also come into play when considering investing in property. Some of these include understanding the risks and seeking professional guidance. Below are several other factors that ensure your real estate investment is successful.
To succeed in the property investment sector, you need to know and understand your local real estate market more than the macro-dynamics of the national picture. The micro factors at work in your specific markets, such as property trends and prices, will influence the performance of your real estate investment. To succeed in property investing, a good rule of thumb is to avoid very hot markets. Location matters; you should focus on high population density areas that are still growing yet with access to basic amenities such as shopping malls and nearby transport hubs.
Gather as much information about real estate investing and development as possible. Across the country, there are many real estate investing (REI) groups. Find REIs with topics and people that interest you. Ideally, look for groups that mentor and educate you rather than those pitching products. Join and participate in one or several.
Your investment vehicle matters. With a real estate investment trust (REIT), you can own a piece of real estate without being involved in its day-to-day management. REITs are investment companies that buy commercial property such as apartment blocks, hotels, office buildings, and retail spaces like shopping malls. REITs generally pay high dividends and are a good retirement investment option. With REITs, you have the option of reinvesting dividends to boost your investment further.
A good way of earning profit is to invest in unfinished projects. This investment strategy allows you to own real estate at extremely low rates. After the construction is complete, you can resell the property for large returns. Although this investment approach comes with an element of risk, doing your research on the firm behind the construction can mitigate some of the risk elements.
Another good option is to look for distressed sellers and acquire their property. Because the seller needs money quickly, such properties are usually sold for rates below their fair market value. This approach is superior to targeting foreclosure auctions. If possible, look for distressed sellers who are yet to place their properties on the market.
You may want to consider house flipping. In this investment method, you invest in a home that requires some repairs or minor renovations as it's likely to be underpriced. Undertake the inexpensive repairs or renovations. Once complete, resell the property for a profit.
Investing in real estate is considered a business by the government. Consequently, you stand to benefit from several tax deductions on expenses associated with maintaining and managing a property.
A Succinct Description of Shelter Asset Management
Shelter Asset Management is a company located in Los Angeles, California. This company is a part of Drewco Family Holding of Companies, a group of companies specializing in constructing and managing buildings. The management established Shelter Asset Management with six employees to find and create investment opportunities in the real estate industry.
A core part of its objectives is to provide value to its clients through its hard-working employees and professional management. The company also has experience in using budgets to reposition and develop apartments on a small and large scale.
Shelter Asset Management engages in different real estate investments, including Single Purpose Investment Vehicles, Joint Ventures, Managed Accounts, and private REITs. Single-purpose investment vehicles and joint ventures are appropriate mechanisms for investors to pull funds together to invest in a portfolio and maximize profit while reducing risk.
Moreover, the company also manages portfolios and investment accounts using its managed accounts feature. This feature gives the investor the freedom to invest and the expertise of investment consultants to make a profit. If the investor is looking to trade in real estate companies not shared on the national stock exchange, Shelter Asset Management provides private REITs for this exact purpose. The company also provides insight through its consultants on investments with an optimal capital structure, showing a high level of equity and a low level of debt.
To achieve success as an investor, it is important that one selects real estate with great care. Shelter Asset Management, while investing in real estate, focuses on rental yields, affordability, capital appreciation, and value-added strategies with proven efficacy in the industry.
Rental yield refers to the difference between acquiring the property and the profit derived from rent. However, before a property is purchased, it must be affordable while having the potential to produce substantial capital appreciation, which is the difference between an investment's cost price and selling price.
These concepts are value-added strategies through which investors try to boost profit by collecting unnoticed property in developing areas and investing in them early. Value-added investments are active real estate investments that are likely to produce higher returns than core investments that require little to no analysis or maintenance, such as simply leasing out a building.
The process of acquiring real estate investments by Shelter Asset Management generally begins with a market analysis of the property. The company makes competitive offers after analyzing a property's value estimate. The research includes the age, size, architecture, location of the building, and whether it is in good condition.
Next, the company underwrites the building; Shelter Asset Management considers the property's value and assesses risk to ensure the property is worth the investment.

This document summarizes a real estate investment program in Palm Beach County, Florida. The program allows investors to purchase single-family homes in desirable neighborhoods that are then leased to qualified tenants. Investors benefit from rental income, tax advantages, and potential capital gains when properties are sold. A property management company handles all aspects of the investment, including identifying properties, financing, maintenance, and tenant screening. Strong demand for rental properties in the area has led to high occupancy rates and rental price increases in recent years, while home values have appreciated an average of 11% annually over the past five years.

Tips for Successful Real Estate Investment
While most real estate investment advisors always stress the importance of location, there several other factors also come into play when considering investing in property. Some of these include understanding the risks and seeking professional guidance. Below are several other factors that ensure your real estate investment is successful.
To succeed in the property investment sector, you need to know and understand your local real estate market more than the macro-dynamics of the national picture. The micro factors at work in your specific markets, such as property trends and prices, will influence the performance of your real estate investment. To succeed in property investing, a good rule of thumb is to avoid very hot markets. Location matters; you should focus on high population density areas that are still growing yet with access to basic amenities such as shopping malls and nearby transport hubs.
Gather as much information about real estate investing and development as possible. Across the country, there are many real estate investing (REI) groups. Find REIs with topics and people that interest you. Ideally, look for groups that mentor and educate you rather than those pitching products. Join and participate in one or several.
Your investment vehicle matters. With a real estate investment trust (REIT), you can own a piece of real estate without being involved in its day-to-day management. REITs are investment companies that buy commercial property such as apartment blocks, hotels, office buildings, and retail spaces like shopping malls. REITs generally pay high dividends and are a good retirement investment option. With REITs, you have the option of reinvesting dividends to boost your investment further.
A good way of earning profit is to invest in unfinished projects. This investment strategy allows you to own real estate at extremely low rates. After the construction is complete, you can resell the property for large returns. Although this investment approach comes with an element of risk, doing your research on the firm behind the construction can mitigate some of the risk elements.
Another good option is to look for distressed sellers and acquire their property. Because the seller needs money quickly, such properties are usually sold for rates below their fair market value. This approach is superior to targeting foreclosure auctions. If possible, look for distressed sellers who are yet to place their properties on the market.
You may want to consider house flipping. In this investment method, you invest in a home that requires some repairs or minor renovations as it's likely to be underpriced. Undertake the inexpensive repairs or renovations. Once complete, resell the property for a profit.
Investing in real estate is considered a business by the government. Consequently, you stand to benefit from several tax deductions on expenses associated with maintaining and managing a property.
A Succinct Description of Shelter Asset Management
Shelter Asset Management is a company located in Los Angeles, California. This company is a part of Drewco Family Holding of Companies, a group of companies specializing in constructing and managing buildings. The management established Shelter Asset Management with six employees to find and create investment opportunities in the real estate industry.
A core part of its objectives is to provide value to its clients through its hard-working employees and professional management. The company also has experience in using budgets to reposition and develop apartments on a small and large scale.
Shelter Asset Management engages in different real estate investments, including Single Purpose Investment Vehicles, Joint Ventures, Managed Accounts, and private REITs. Single-purpose investment vehicles and joint ventures are appropriate mechanisms for investors to pull funds together to invest in a portfolio and maximize profit while reducing risk.
Moreover, the company also manages portfolios and investment accounts using its managed accounts feature. This feature gives the investor the freedom to invest and the expertise of investment consultants to make a profit. If the investor is looking to trade in real estate companies not shared on the national stock exchange, Shelter Asset Management provides private REITs for this exact purpose. The company also provides insight through its consultants on investments with an optimal capital structure, showing a high level of equity and a low level of debt.
To achieve success as an investor, it is important that one selects real estate with great care. Shelter Asset Management, while investing in real estate, focuses on rental yields, affordability, capital appreciation, and value-added strategies with proven efficacy in the industry.
Rental yield refers to the difference between acquiring the property and the profit derived from rent. However, before a property is purchased, it must be affordable while having the potential to produce substantial capital appreciation, which is the difference between an investment's cost price and selling price.
These concepts are value-added strategies through which investors try to boost profit by collecting unnoticed property in developing areas and investing in them early. Value-added investments are active real estate investments that are likely to produce higher returns than core investments that require little to no analysis or maintenance, such as simply leasing out a building.
The process of acquiring real estate investments by Shelter Asset Management generally begins with a market analysis of the property. The company makes competitive offers after analyzing a property's value estimate. The research includes the age, size, architecture, location of the building, and whether it is in good condition.
Next, the company underwrites the building; Shelter Asset Management considers the property's value and assesses risk to ensure the property is worth the investment.
Benefits and Types of Real Estate Investment Trust
A real estate investment trust is a type of mutual fund that pools money from private individuals for the sole purpose of investments. It is a public corporation that controls the management and finance of valuable assets to generate revenue. In real estate investment trusts, private individuals buy shares of valuable assets that continually generate revenue without acquiring and managing them.
This type of investment provides shareholders with a steady source of income, although the returns might come in small amounts; however, unlike all other real estate firms that purchase assets to resell, a real estate investment trust purchases and grows assets to gain more value over time as part of their business portfolio.
Some REITs are available to be publicly traded on stock exchanges, which grants them liquidity similar to bonds and stocks compared to other physical assets. These companies acquire apartment buildings, cell towers, office buildings, residences, hotels, and loans.
With real estate investment trust, individual investors have the opportunity and freedom to own properties in different ways. Direct individual investment, real estate partnerships, and investment trusts are all viable options for anyone to decide to invest.
There are certain REITs that companies register with the SEC and list on stock exchanges. At the same time, some do have SEC registrations, but companies do not list them on the stock exchanges. The type of REITs not available to be publicly traded yet registered with the SEC is public non-listed REITs.
Many types of REITs are available for shareholders to invest in. The first type will be an equity real estate investment trust. An equity real estate investment trust is a type of REIT that invests in the real estate business. It focuses mainly on properties, as rent is created primarily by leasing workspaces, storage, and hotels, and companies deliver it to shareholders as dividends. Many real estate investment firms have corporations make them available for public trading as disguised as equity REITs that run properties that generate income.
Another real estate investment trust type will be the mortgage real estate investment trust. This investment trust focuses on acquiring originating mortgages and mortgage-backed securities and generating revenue from the investments' accumulated interest. Mortgages, as well as lending money to property owners and purchasing existing mortgage-backed securities, produce revenue.
As earlier established, there are non-listed real estate investment trusts registered with the national stock exchange commission that companies do not list on stock exchanges. These types of investment funds can not be easily liquified.
Before you invest in real estate investment trusts, it is essential to conduct enough research on the types to find the one best suitable for you. You should find out if the company has such investment publicly listed or not.
Essential Factors to Consider When Investing in Real Estate
Real estate refers to any land or property that includes natural or manufactured improvements such as buildings, roads, trees, and utility systems. These improvements add to the quality of the property over time, increasing its market value. Therefore, real estate is a great investment option, as the increased property value ensures a lower amount of investment risk. However, IronStone Building Company, a subset of Drewlo holdings, provides buyers with exceptional properties at reasonable prices, and they maintain transparency throughout the acquisition process.
Real estate is an excellent way to earn extra income and diversify investment portfolios, but investors must consider fundamental aspects when investing in real estate. These factors determine what type of property best suits an investor's needs.
An essential factor to consider when investing in property is location. Proximity to amenities such as markets, highways, and transportation systems, plays a significant role in a property's valuation and tax. IronStone Communities offer plenty of recreational and leisure opportunities and are close to transportation routes, shops, diners, schools, and parks. Still, investors should assess the property's proximity to their place of work, schools for children, or their favorite recreational activities. They could also research how the area could develop in the nearest future and if those developments would still be within their needs. Investors also have to be aware of the area's rules to avoid penalties.
Another essential factor to consider is the investment purpose. Some investors buy property to provide shelter for themselves and their families. Others buy property for industrial purposes. Others buy property to lease out to other people and make money from rent, while others could buy to resell in the long term. It is essential to know the investor's plan for the property to know what type of property to purchase.
Getting the estimated value of a property is another important factor when investing in a property. Property valuation helps determine investment aspects such as taxation and insurance. There are three ways to specify it: comparing the recent sales of properties with similar characteristics, deducting the cost of depreciation from the cost of the land and construction, and the income approach where expected cash inflow for rental properties is measured. Ironclad Pricing, an exclusive IronStone feature, ensures investors get the best value for their new homes. Ironclad Pricing includes quality standard home upgrades and finishes upfront at their core prices at no extra cost.
Knowing how much an investor is willing to spend is another important factor in real estate investment. A budget narrows down available properties, and this works hand in hand with the investment purpose and property valuation. For instance, buying a property to resell might cost more, as the investor might have to renovate the property before selling again.
Benefits of Investing in Condominiums
Condominiums, or condos, offer several benefits as an investment property. Condos are generally more cost effective than single-family homes, with average costs in 2021 of $300,400 for condos versus $347,400 for homes. Condo owners pay monthly association fees that cover most maintenance costs, keeping maintenance expenses low. Condos also have amenities like parks, gyms, and common spaces that can make them attractive rental properties. Additionally, condos are located in strategic, urban areas and provide a secure housing option with locked entrances and neighborly surveillance of units. However, condo associations set individual rules around renovations, business use, and other regulations that can impact investment costs.
Important Considerations when Buying a Condo
A condo, short for condominium, is an individual residential unit within a larger building, similar to an apartment building. What this means is that you share ownership of the building with other individuals or families who also own a unit. A lot of people prefer condos because of the lower cost of maintenance. However, It is important to understand that buying a condo is pretty different from buying a single-family home, so there are important considerations you must take into account before purchasing.
The most important thing to consider when buying a condo is your lifestyle. You must be sure that living in a condo will fit your way of living. It would be best if you weighed the pros and cons before making any financial commitments. For example, suppose you’re the type that takes your privacy very seriously, then buying a condo might not be a good decision. Unlike free-standing single-family homes, you may have several neighbors very close to your condo. If you cannot imagine having someone living so close to you, condos aren’t suitable for your lifestyle.
However, if you’re the type that likes to live nearby city centers, have on-site laundry services, enjoy residential amenities like swimming pools gyms, and want to avoid frequent home maintenance and repairs, then you can consider purchasing a condo. In addition, If you’ve ever lived comfortably in an apartment building, you should have no problem with condos, as they are even much better.
After considering the essential factors highlighted above and ultimately deciding to move ahead with hunting for a condo, consider hiring a realtor who has an impressive track record in buying and selling condos. Such realtors have years of experience in all essential aspects of condos. For example, they can help you explain condo association documents which are very important.
Also, most condominium communities require members to sign additional contracts to the sale contract before sealing the purchase. These contracts explicitly state that you understand and agree to the stipulated community policies.
Experienced agents are usually familiar with these situations as they’ve been through them countless times. They will guide you through the process and ensure you don’t miss any important clauses in the document. Also, it is probable that experienced agents know a lot of condos in your city, so they know which ones are faulty or are not up to standard and the suitable ones.
However, no matter how experienced and honest your agent might be, you must check out the community yourself to get firsthand experience. Visit the neighborhood at different times and chat with some residents, asking them about things that concern you the most, like security and social amenities.
In addition to hiring a realtor, consider your mortgage options. It is best to look for condos that have Federal Housing Administration (FHA) approval.
Things to Consider Before Renting an Apartment
Moving into a new apartment can be very satisfying, especially when it's potentially a step up from the current one. However, looking for the ideal apartment can be tasking and frustrating as people may have to check out several places in many different locations. Even when it seems like they may have found the ideal place, some fundamental problems associated with the apartment may not be detected easily.
One of the most important things to look out for is the neighborhood of the apartment. Before making financial commitments, it is vital to move around the neighborhood to see its functionality firsthand. There are various facets of an area that individuals must assess to ensure they match their expectations.
One of these facets is security, as a neighborhood might seem safe but isn't. However, people can use crime reporting websites like CrimeReports, The National Sex Offender Public Website, NeighborhoodScout, City Profile Reports, and Family Watchdog. These platforms usually provide unbiased crime reporting across many neighborhoods.
Another facet of the neighborhood worth considering is community hygiene. People must pay attention to little details like trash around the area and the level of care neighbors show to their surroundings. It is also essential to watch out for the hygiene of next-door neighbors, as people can easily be affected by their neighbor's lousy hygiene manifestation like rodent problems.
Another vital factor to consider when renting an apartment is the landlord. The type of landlord can determine how a tenant fares in an apartment. Having the wrong landlord with bad landlord-tenant ethics and unfairness may subject a person to a terrible tenancy experience and lead to frequent litigations. However, people can prevent such scenarios by being proactive, like arranging a meeting with the landlord, as talking over the phone may not suffice.
By meeting with the landlord and having an extensive discussion, prospective tenants can assess their personalities to determine if they are on the same page. They must also use the opportunity to clarify issues that may cause problems or misunderstandings with the landlord or property manager.
Also, people must consider the phone reception inside the apartment. Smartphones have become a crucial part of virtually every adult person's daily life. People rely on it for several vital things every day, so it is a significant problem if people cannot properly utilize their phones inside an apartment due to bad reception. To avoid this problem, prospective tenants must use their phones to make calls and access the internet to ensure the reception is standard when they enter an apartment. It is also essential they do this reception trial from different apartment areas.
Lastly, individuals must look out for basic apartment amenities. When people check out different apartments, they must ensure the available amenities satisfy their expectations. There are several amenities that an apartment
Qualities of a Good Asset Manager
Every business, irrespective of the industry they operate in, uses assets that further and facilitate the company's goals. These assets could be financial assets like capital, building the business runs out of, or digital assets like patents and intellectual property. Assets can not promote and contribute to the progress of the business without a capable asset manager at the helm of their operations. Every company needs a professional asset manager with the proper knowledge of their various asset classes.
An innovative and quality asset manager should have the ability to make reasoned decisions. This means they must possess good experience conducting feasibility studies while also putting together reports on whether refurbishment or disposal of individual assets is a good option and recommending acquisition if needed. It is also essential to focus on individual assets and determine their impact on the financial and operational performance of the entire portfolio.
Any good asset manager must possess excellent reporting skills. This is because asset managers are expected to report to the fund managers or clients the operational and financial status of the whole portfolio. This also concerns any individual assets that are managed.
Most employers keep an eye out for prospective employees that possess prior knowledge of asset management when hiring. However, it is pretty unpopular to see individuals with no previous knowledge of asset management get accepted for the role of an asset manager in a company. Whether gained through client-side roles or consultancy, it is crucial to have experience in this field. An excellent way to gain experience would be to start with property management. This can equip any prospective asset manager with the fundamentals they might need to progress in the industry.
Becoming a successful asset manager involves mastering asset valuation. Performing an asset valuation can be quite tasking and can be as much of an art as technical. This is because an asset's value can only be estimated from future cash flows, which is difficult to predict and subject to hundreds of variables.
Various Types of Asset Management
Over the years, asset management has become a huge sector in the United States. According to PWC, globally, asset managers managed $110 trillion worth of assets in 2020. This is a substantial 40 percent increase compared to what was applied in 2015. Asset managers are primarily saddled with making investment decisions, managing risks, and creating wealth.
Asset managers often manage corporations, governments, the wealthy, and corporate investors. While some asset managers might work individually, some are employed by asset-management companies, banks, and other financial institutions. Asset management can be broadly divided into infrastructure management, enterprise asset management, financial asset management, and public asset management.
Financial assets are one of the most managed assets. Financial asset management involves the management of client investment accounts and investment funds. Mutual funds, bonds, and cash are examples of financial investment. In managing financial assets, the asset manager gets the client acquainted with the risk involved with owning a particular financial asset. They assess the various financial assets the client must deposit while helping them chart a path to their financial goals.
Similarly, asset managers also manage digital assets. Digital asset refers to materials or contents that can be stored digitally. Today, examples of digital assets have taken a broader form. Photos, documents, videos, and blog posts are considered digital assets.
The Pros of Hiring a Real Estate Consultant
A real estate consultant, otherwise known as a real estate advisor, specializes in sharing informed advice and opinion with clients who intend to purchase or make other kinds of investments in real estate. Real estate consultants often deal with clients who intend to invest in real estate commercially. Hence, they rarely deal with people who invest in real estate for domestic purposes.
To be a professional real estate consultant, one must be licensed and sometimes earn a Counselors of Real Estate (CRE) designation. Real estate consultants often function as back-end experts who conduct detailed research or guide their clients through real estate investment decisions. Their advice usually entails a broader scope, as they focus on the overall success of investment decisions rather than assessing them in isolation.
Types of Multi-Asset Funds
A multi-asset fund, also known as a multiple-asset or multi-asset class, is an assortment of investments with comparable characteristics governed by the same rules and regulations. A multi-asset investor's portfolio could include a combination of bonds, cash, and real estate, whereas a single-class investor might only have stocks.
There are different kinds of multi-asset funds, one of them is hedge funds. Hedge funds invest in both traditional and alternative asset classes, taking a multi-asset class strategy to invest. Investors in hedge funds are given the option to choose from various multi-asset class investments; the main benefit of these investments is that they diversify an investor's portfolio.
Another type of multi-asset fund investment is target-date funds. Target-date funds are mutual funds that are designed to increase assets over a predetermined period. These funds are structured to meet an investor's financial needs at a future period, thus the phrase "target date." Most investors utilize a target-date fund to plan for their retirement. Also, investors preparing for an item of future expenditure are more likely to use target-date funds.
Target-risk funds are another kind of multi-asset fund. A target-risk fund is a type of investment fund that holds a diversified mix of stocks, bonds, and other investments to achieve a particular risk profile. A target-risk fund manager is in charge of supervising all of the securities held by the fund to ensure that the degree of risk does not exceed or fall below the fund's target-risk exposure.
Target-risk funds allow investors to modify their risk tolerance at any time during their lives. When investors are younger, they often desire greater risk or volatility, but they aim to limit their risk exposure as they become older and closer to retirement.
Risk tolerance funds are another type of multi-asset fund. Many mutual fund providers offer multi-asset class funds tailored to the client's risk tolerance. For example, a larger equity allocation would be found in aggressive funds, while a higher allocation to safer assets would be found in conservative funds.
A personal portfolio is another kind of multi-asset fund. One of the most fundamental ideas in investing and finance is the portfolio. Depending on the context, it can have a range of meanings. A portfolio is a collection of assets owned by one person or institution, such as stocks and bonds, real estate, or even cryptocurrencies. If a person has enough money, they could become their own asset manager and establish a multi-class portfolio.
Another type of multi-asset fund is income funds. To provide regular income to investors, income funds involve investment in high dividend-paying equities, government securities, certificates of deposits, corporate bonds, money market instruments, and debentures.
Income funds are a good option for investors who desire a steady and predictable income. This type of fund has a lower risk of defaulting. A
Types of Asset Managers
An asset manager is a financial expert who manages money and securities on behalf of a client to increase the value of the assets. Asset managers trade, manage and invest assets such as cash, bonds, equities, precious metals, commodities, and real estate for their clients.
They advise their customers on asset acquisitions and monitor, negotiate, and implement asset value and revenue-increasing strategies. There are various types of asset managers, including registered investment advisors (RIAs), financial advisors, robo-advisors, and wealth managers.
A registered financial advisor (RIA) is an individual or a corporation that provides investment advice and portfolio management to high-net-worth individuals. RIAs have a fiduciary duty to their clients, which implies they have a moral commitment to provide financial advice that is always in their customers’ best interests. RIAs must also file with either the State Securities Administrator or the Securities and Exchange Commission. A registered financial advisor is a financial expert who consults and advises on a person’s or company’s finances. Financial advisers can assist people and businesses in achieving their financial objectives faster by advising them on how to build money, save expenditures, and erase debts.
A financial advisor may help an individual save more money and create wealth. They can accomplish this by putting together an investment portfolio that is well matched to the client’s risk tolerance. Some clients are more prepared to take on risks if the possibility of a higher payout outweighs the possibility of losing money.
On the other hand, more risk-averse clients may prefer a lower-risk portfolio, even if it entails fewer returns. Determining a person’s risk attitude can be challenging since a person’s risk attitude is influenced by various things. To have a thorough picture of their client, a financial counselor may inquire about their age, income, indebtedness, and savings.
Financial advisors can give a second, unbiased perspective on corporate growth programs in the case of businesses. For example, if a firm is considering expanding its operations by establishing a new factory, financial consultants can assist in determining the project’s viability on their own.
Robo-advisors are online services that provide automated, algorithm-driven financial advice with little human intervention. They use an online survey to collect information from clients about their financial situation and future goals and then use that knowledge to make suggestions and invest client money automatically.
A stockbroker, also known as an investment broker, is a certified professional who may purchase and sell stocks on behalf of other investors. Stockbrokers are often hired by a brokerage or a broker-dealer and are regulated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Stockbrokers operate on commission, and their fee is generally a proportion of the trade’s value.
Essential Stages of Construction Project Management
Construction project management is an essential aspect of building development. It turns any construction idea or vision into a reality, irrespective of the scope, size, or time frame. Proper project management and following essential steps can give an exciting building experience. Building the ideal construction project involves following some crucial steps to execute a successful construction project.
The planning and design phase involves the conception of the project before any concrete building designs are even made. This is the part of construction project management where the location of the proposed building is determined and also if it meets the standards of the proper jurisdictional authorities. After doing this, it is important to employ an architect who can check the feasibility of the project and if it aligns with the primary objectives of the building. When all these are done, the project manager, owner, and architect collaborate to put the owner's idea on paper. This includes the schematic design and outlines of the objectives of the building. After the engineer and architect complete the building design, the final contact documents for the building are put together. Individuals willing to place bids to work on the project can use these documents.
The Fundamental Roles of a Property Manager
Suppose an individual purchases a property and doesn't have the time, knowledge, or experience to manage it daily. In that case, they hire a property manager to handle the business activities. Simply put, the job of a property manager involves becoming an intermediary between the property owner and the tenant and taking on the responsibility of the property's maintenance, operations, and administration. The duties of a property manager often depend on the rate at which they are paid, the type of property they manage, and the terms of the agreed management contract.
The primary job of a property manager is to handle the daily activities of a unit of real estate. They are required to have a working knowledge of the laws and regulations of the industry of the property they are managing, whether it is residential or industrial housing. Overseeing the maintenance, rent collection, budgets, and rental property records is their primary objective as they work per the property owner's goals. It is also essential that they familiarize themselves with the state and federal laws that govern dealing with tenants, including screening tenants to handling security deposits, conducting evictions, and terminating leases.
How Luxury Apartments Impact Housing Costs
Luxury might be subjective and might mean different things to different people. However, according to Apartmentguide, luxury apartments are big and spacious apartments with state-of-the-art appliances, luxurious amenities, and in a high-brow environment. Contrary to this definition, not all luxury apartments are in prime or high-income environments and neighborhoods, as some are majorly in low-income areas. Luxury apartments often impact the neighborhoods in which they are located.
Why Use a Family-Owned Real Estate Company?
Selling and purchasing real estate properties can be a tedious and strenuous activity. Fortunately, real estate companies ease the execution process of real estate transactions. While getting a good real estate company will ascertain a smooth sale or acquisition of properties, the uphill task is to find a company that will deliver the superior quality of service you desire. That is why many property buyers and sellers prefer using a family-owned company because it comes with some unique features.
Ideal companies should make a client feel calm and confident by showcasing the element of reliability within all its business operations. For instance, they should deliver progress reports to help clients understand what is happening. You can learn much about a family-owned company's stability based on its accomplishments over the years it has been in operation.
Tips When Searching for Your Next Home
Shopping for a new home is a strenuous activity, and you can use all the help you can get to ensure you get the ideal home. Luckily, you don’t have to start from scratch in your quest for a new home. The most common mistake that people make when selecting a place to call their home is the failure to take ample time to analyze and understand what they truly want.
The contemporary world is primarily influenced by social and mainstream media, making people want things simply because others have them. Imagine purchasing that mansion mainly because you have noticed your friends on social media prefer villas, only to find out later that it is not what you needed in the first place. A bigger house is not necessarily better. For that reason, assess the number of your occupants and select a house with just enough rooms to ensure your next home will be comfortable for everyone. Note down the aspects you would want your home to have based on your personality and the utility you genuinely desire to gain from your new home.
Factors to Consider in Asset Management
Factors to Consider in Asset Management outlines key considerations for effective asset management. It discusses forming a dedicated asset management team, setting clear goals to guide the process, conducting gradual asset assessments, implementing data integrity protocols, identifying asset lifecycles and depreciation rates, and automating asset management through software. The document emphasizes the importance of strategic asset management for business success and ensuring required quality levels and regulatory compliance for organizational assets.
Walt Disney Concert Hall and Legislation Revitalizes Downtown LA
Based in Los Angeles, California, Shelter Asset Management (SAM) is a real estate advisory and consultancy firm founded in 2008. Its expertise involves devising and implementing the construction of single-family, subdivision, multi-family, and mixed used buildings. Among its projects, the firm has produced concept developments for mid-rise and high-rise buildings in the reinvigorated downtown LA area.
Once neglected downtown LA has been revitalized since the opening of the Walt Disney Concert Hall. When the venue opened its doors in 2003, it quickly became a downtown landmark. The shavings of silver waves that form the building sits next to a leafy parking lot, which has come to be a meeting point or a place where office workers congregate for lunch or a quick break. Meanwhile, the ground-level theater hosts groundbreaking performances.
Ironstone’s Cali at Hyde Park Meadows Offers Modern Mid-Sized Homes

- 2. Introduction An accomplished real estate investment professional, Stuart Hansen has extensive experience in maintaining client partnerships with international investors from Japan, China, and other countries in Asia. As the vice president of Marquee Asset Management, Stuart Hansen is responsible for setting up the firm’s operations in California as well as facilitating US real estate investments of its Asian partners from Japan and China. The Mid-Year California Housing Market Forecast report released by the California Association of Realtors (CAR) revealed that the total seasonally adjusted annualized rate (SAAR) reached 389,690 units in June 2019, which is 4.2 percent lower than the sales figure of the previous month.
- 3. Housing Market June’s sales figure has fallen below the 400,000-benchmark and has been there for 10 months out of the last 12. Meanwhile, the median price of single-family homes increased slightly from $611,190 in May 2019 to $611,420 in June 2019. According to Jared Martin, the president of CAR, the rise in home prices and low interest rates have resulted in a decrease in mortgage payments over the last four months. At this rate, homebuyers have the opportunity to save money on their current homes or consider purchasing more expensive properties for the same monthly mortgage payments.
