Expectations and Considerations for 2024 To say that the high-end market has seen a dramatic growth over the last few years is probably an understatement. The recognition of its impact and undeniable influence, through emerging trends and architectural innovations, on the broader real estate landscape has been equally significant. As we step into 2024, the luxury market now stands at another fascinating juncture. This sector, known for its resilience and capacity to set trends, experienced a notable positive shift towards the end of 2023. After a period of stagnation driven by economic uncertainties, the market saw a resurgence in activity, marking a pivotal moment for affluent investors and luxury property enthusiasts. The initial three quarters of 2023 were characterized by a cautious approach from both buyers and sellers, largely attributed to the unpredictable economic climate. Concerns over inflation, fluctuating interest rates, and the overall economic outlook led to a slowdown in transactions. However, the landscape began to shift in the last quarter of the year. As indicators of economic stabilization became more apparent, confidence returned to the luxury real estate market. This confidence was mirrored in increased inventory levels and a subsequent rise in sales, surpassing figures from the same period in 2022. A Market Still Evolving Early statistics from January 2024, based on the 155 markets researched by The Institute, suggest that this positive trend is not only continuing but has the potential to accelerate, particularly in the single-family luxury market. Indicators point to a robust spring market that could potentially outperform the previous year. In the luxury single-family market not only are all the data parameters stronger compared to January 2022, but there is also a trending upwards compared to December 2023. Both the overall inventory level and new listings entering the market grew 15.9% and 25.4% respectively compared to NORTH AMERICAN LUXURY REVIEW January 2023. Compared to December 2023, inventory grew 2% but more importantly, new listings by a staggering 88.9%. As a result, the single-family market saw an 18.4% increase in sales during January 2024 compared to January 2023, and the median sold price increased by 1.6%.

'The best way to sum up the luxury real estate market during 2023 might be that it remained "unapologetically resilient", despite a slower year in the overall sales volume compared to 2022. Purchasing a luxury home also retained its appeal with high demand from affluent buyers still looking to realize their desire to buy a new residence. Equally they recognized that the investment opportunity remained, albeit over the longer term.

Luxury Market Report NorthAmerica DEC'23

Lynne Watanabe-MacFarlane

The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing has analyzed a number of metrics — including sales prices, sales volumes, number of sales, sales-price-to-list-price ratios, days on market and price-per-square-foot – to provide you a comprehensive North American Luxury Market report. Additionally, we have further examined all of the individual luxury markets to provide both an overview and an in-depth analysis - including, where data is sufficient, a breakdown by luxury single-family homes and luxury attached homes. The Glimmer of Change Grows Brighter Last month, we reported a glimmer of hope as the luxury market, for the first time in 2023, witnessed an increase in the number of sold properties and new inventory entering the market compared to the same month in 2022. This encouraging trend continues this month. The Numbers are Up Compared to November 2022, the number of sales last month rose 5.1% for single-family homes and 13.7% for attached homes. This is not the only growth statistic that could show the start, albeit a slow one, of a market comeback. The number of new listings entering the market last month also increased compared to November 2022, by 21.1% for single-family homes and 29.3% for attached properties. The rise in new inventory entering the market is equally significant as it shows a growing confidence by sellers compared to last year. Lack of new inventory has been one of the most significant challenges to the growth of sales during most of 2023, as it created a roadblock for opportunity. This was especially significant in a market where buyers had become highly specific in their property specification preferences. Get Ready for 2024 the Right Way During this unconventional market, we highly recommend working with a luxury property specialist to gain insights into what is truly happening in your local marketplace. The art of selling and buying in this market needs a critical and analytical approach.

Luxury Home Market Report - North America Nov 2023

Lynne Watanabe-MacFarlane

Opportunity Knocks The biggest impacts are more likely to be felt at the local market level and will depend on the current demand profile of their buyers against ongoing supply. So, expect to hear some conflicting analysis because all markets are not equal and results from a North American perspective could look very different at the grassroots level. While there will be much debate about how things will play out over the next year, like all markets, there is always an opportunity for those who are ready. There are niches in every market: whether moving to a location that affords a better cost of living, recognizing luxury pockets or property types that are next in the demand cycle, or simply biding one’s time in anticipation of finding a property that is below market value. Regardless of an affluent buyer’s financial profile, there is still significant confidence in the luxury real estate market and a belief in the stability of owning property. Even if some buyers previously dropped out of the real estate game due to fatigue, frustration, or even hesitation during 2023, in 2024 they may be primed to return as inventory levels improve. We highly recommend working with a luxury property specialist during this unconventional market to ascertain what is truly happening in your local marketplace. The art of selling and buying in this market needs a critical and analytical approach; understanding the realities and setting expectations accordingly will ensure that goals are achieved.

guide to luxury real estate market data and trends for North America. Produced monthly by The Institute for Luxury Home Marketing, this report provides an in-depth look at the top residential markets across the United States and Canada. Within the individual markets, you will find established luxury benchmark prices and detailed survey of luxury active and sold properties designed to showcase current market status and recent trends. The national report illustrates a compilation of the top North American markets to review overall standards and trends. Understanding the New Reality of 2023 In this month’s report, we take a step back in time to understand why the luxury real market has truly changed, how this new reality for buyers and sellers was created, and why it needs to be appreciated. Using 2019 as our benchmark year, a year that saw a steady and more typical sales cycle but one that also showed a growing confidence in the purchase of luxury homes as the year progressed. Growth was driven by demand as buyers saw financial potential due to strong stability within the luxury real estate market. Inventory availability in 2019 was not considered to be a factor in preventing sales, as most markets typically saw a significantly greater number of homes for sale than potential buyers. It’s interesting to note that prior to the pandemic it was rare for the luxury real estate market not to be more favorable to buyers, and equally, expectations were that homes would take much longer to sell than those in the traditional market. As we all know, and it has been well documented, this all changed with the onset of the Covid-19 pandemic and the surge in demand for luxury properties. Demand outstripped supply at a dramatic and voracious level so that even the rapid change of the market in April 2022, which saw an influx of new listings, proved to be too little, given the uptake in sales during May and June of the same year. Like 2019, in 2023 there has been a return of confidence in the purchase of homes, month over month sales volumes have increased, after the market faltered in the last four months of 2022. However, this is where the similarities end, as while demand is still important, the new reality is the status of the luxury real estate market is now clearly correlated to the level of available inventory. Comparing inventory data in 2023 shows the average level of total listings per month is still approximately 40% below levels in 2019. NORTH AMERICAN LUXURY REVIEW The data also clearly shows that it is not just the depleted level of inventory that is holding back sales, but as we can see from the charts below, it is the actual number of new listings entering the market each month that must also be directly correlated to sales activity – if the level of new inventory increases, so does the number of sold properties for the month, and vice versa.

Luxury Trends for the Summer As we head into summer, what trends are set to define this season’s must-haves, and are there any surprises? Smart technology and wellness amenities are certainly top favorites of the affluent homeowner, but today’s buyer is also looking for the home that will fulfil their lifestyle decisions – this more than just the style of the home and/or its location, it is the experience offered by the property that will likely set it apart. This experience tends to encompass not only unique and spectacular features within the home and its grounds but also the property’s location and surrounding amenities. Affluent buyers’ expectations have shifted, becoming honed by the need to find a sense of purpose for their chosen property and its location as well the opportunity to still add their personal identity and style. Despite lingering uncertainty outside the luxury real estate market, the steadiness of prices, sales, and inventory levels have resulted in a consistent increase in the demand for luxury properties during the first five months of 2023. The number of luxury properties sold has risen month over month since the start of 2023, aside from January, which did see a downturn in sales. Despite the slight plateau in April, May’s figures saw a 33% increase in sales for single-family homes compared to April and attached properties sales were 26% higher. This has been assisted by the increased level of new inventory entering the market, up 22% compared to April 2022 for single-family homes and 14% for attached homes – putting inventory levels back on par with levels seen in May 2022. While an increase in new inventory has resulted in a greater number of sales, the significant difference in percentage increase of sales versus new inventory proves that the demand for luxury properties continues, enabling the market to remain strong. - Strength and Comfort - There is a focus on permanence in all aspects of the luxury real estate market with quick fads a trend of the past; expect to see quality, endurability, and sustainability as the key determinants in the building, design, and refurbishment of homes for the remainder of the year. Nature is being embraced, creating a more natural feel through layering, texturing, sustainability processes. Color neutrality with warmer palettes, and Artisan and artistic features are being blended into old and new designs to create soothing, comfortable, yet unique environments. These elements will be at the forefront of this season’s design palette, and technology will be implemented to provide efficiency but, more specifically, to create spaces and features that offer a sense of ambient wellness. Color and Texture Return The cool greys, sharp blacks, and clean or pure whites are taking a back seat as earthy greens, soft yellows, deep reds, and gentle pinks, used for accents and contrast, are blended with more warm neutral palettes creating richer dimensions to rooms. Warm greys, creams, and browns

Luxury Markets in Demand As demand returns, we review several markets in the U.S. and Canada that experienced significant growth in March. Much has been written recently about the popularity of lower priced luxury markets, especially in the Midwest, so we wondered, with the uptick in sales during March, if this trend was still holding true…or if another shift is occurring. East Bay, California Taking the number one spot is not a Midwest market, but East Bay in California, where the median luxury sold price averaged close to $1.5 million during the first quarter of 2023. Not only did this market see a huge increase in demand during the pandemic, but once again it is drawing buyers to its highly diversified communities and seems set for a strong spring market.

Why Japan? Tokyo Real Estate Market in a Nutshell!

Lynne Watanabe-MacFarlane

1. The Japanese economy is expected to see the highest growth in 2023 among G7 countries, with inflation and interest rates remaining low. This has led to a weak yen, making Tokyo real estate an attractive investment opportunity. 2. Tokyo real estate prices have been on an upward trend overall, recovering from the 1990s economic slump, with central areas within a 10km radius of the CBD considered a safe investment. 3. The document recommends buying older but cheaply priced apartments in downtown and prime areas of Tokyo, expecting capital appreciation as prices rise moderately. Specific investment properties are presented as examples.

The housing market across the MLSListings region slowed significantly in 2022 due to high prices, rising interest rates, and economic uncertainty. Home prices declined in most areas compared to last year, with the largest drops in San Mateo County. Housing sales and new listings also fell substantially, causing inventory levels and months of supply to rise slightly. However, the market remains relatively tight. Prices are expected to decline modestly further before stabilizing in late 2023 as interest rates potentially decrease.

CAKE: Sharing Slices of Confidential Data on Blockchain

Claudio Di Ciccio

Presented at the CAiSE 2024 Forum, Intelligent Information Systems, June 6th, Limassol, Cyprus. Synopsis: Cooperative information systems typically involve various entities in a collaborative process within a distributed environment. Blockchain technology offers a mechanism for automating such processes, even when only partial trust exists among participants. The data stored on the blockchain is replicated across all nodes in the network, ensuring accessibility to all participants. While this aspect facilitates traceability, integrity, and persistence, it poses challenges for adopting public blockchains in enterprise settings due to confidentiality issues. In this paper, we present a software tool named Control Access via Key Encryption (CAKE), designed to ensure data confidentiality in scenarios involving public blockchains. After outlining its core components and functionalities, we showcase the application of CAKE in the context of a real-world cyber-security project within the logistics domain.

Artificial Intelligence for XMLDevelopment

Octavian Nadolu

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject. We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup. Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved. The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring. The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise. By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.
