INTRODUCTION
This GLOMACS Real Estate Economics and Valuation training course is designed to enable delegates to understand how to create value in the largest asset class in the world. It combines two vital sets of skills for real estate professionals. First, attendees grasp the lessons learned from the application of economics to real estate: how cities are created and grow, land is zoned and utilized through planning, infrastructure, and buildings, and how value is created by real estate actors as a result.
And second, attendees learn to value most typical forms of real estate using a variety of techniques and methods, using the same methods as a chartered surveyor and with examples drawn from real practice. The focus is on properties and market conditions in the Middle East, both existing property and new development, but with plenty of international examples, including land, properties with development potential, and different classes of property, including villas, apartments, offices, retail, hotels, warehouses, and specialized property.
This Real Estate Economics and Valuation training course will highlight:
- Understand how real estate economics works to create value from land to completed developments and cities
