Cross-quadrant asset allocation: very modern portfolio theory applied to real estate
Article Abstract:
Commercial real estate investment has evolved from mere property acquisition to the art of investing in basic real estate market trends by using different instruments. Real estate investment vehicles are typically classified into four quadrants, namely, private equity, private debt, public equity and public debt. A suggested strategy for structuring information about each quadrant will make it possible to develop a highly detailed and specific cross-quadrant asset allocation model that will allow investors to better assess their entire real estate portfolios.

Opportunistic investing: making money in today's markets
Article Abstract:
The concept of investing opportunistically in real estate emerged in the early 1990s amid economic turmoil. The series of financial crises worldwide in the late 1990s has considerably shaken not only the investment sector of the real estate market but also the entire market itself. However, opportunities have arisen from the ensuing volatility and instability, and a number of suggestions may direct investors to where they might earn strong, risk-adjusted returns in the existing marketplace.
