Investment management

Real estate as an investment asset

Real estate has always been considered as one of the investment strategies. Although the real estate market is a complex market and is affected by financial crises; It is still considered one of the popular methods of investment and sometimes it is even considered a competitor to the stock market. Especially when it comes to dividing the investment portfolio in different markets; The real estate market is always an option on the table. Investing in real estate is faced with challenges that most of the times require expert staff to deal with them. Property is at risk of damage, deteriorates over time, and often goes through a more complicated process to buy and sell than in other markets. Real estate investment managers must help identify and exploit opportunities at the property level. Real estate managers are not only responsible for asset allocation, risk management and transactions, but are also responsible for dealing directly with the land and the structures on it. This is the same role that Dovan Iranian plays as a development consultant in the investment discussion, relying on her experience and knowledge.

Real estate portfolio management

Diversification is as important in real estate investments as in traditional capital market investments. Great investors build portfolios that consist of different types of properties. They also make sure that their assets span different markets. This simply illustrates the role of portfolio management in real estate.

Portfolio management involves the allocation and selection of assets by development professionals. Various factors such as purchase price, maintenance costs, possible repairs, maintenance costs and, if possible, future sales price should be considered when selecting properties for a portfolio. An important thing to note about real estate portfolios is that most of the asset management process takes place after portfolio selection.

Real estate portfolio managers provide value to clients by ensuring the most efficient use of investor capital, and by keeping clients informed through superior performance metrics and even cash flow forecasting.

Investment selection strategies

As a real estate portfolio manager, Dovan Iranian performs asset allocation and asset selection not by understanding market dynamics and companies in specific industries, but by being an expert in real estate principles. Portfolio managers study local areas and different commercial uses of land: Office, industrial, hotel, retail, and single and multi-family residential. To beat the market, ensure diversification and generate risk-adjusted returns, real estate portfolio managers must bet on regional or local real estate markets and, in the case of multi-asset portfolios, the right asset mix.

For this reason, many fund managers focus on specific regions or types of real estate. Some larger real estate asset managers organize their senior staff and support personnel by region or land use. The rationale for organizing in this way is to ensure that market opportunities can be identified and then translated into the correct asset selection and asset origination.

Asset Management

Property management in the real estate industry refers to a system that monitors or maintains valuable property belonging to a person or group. Asset management is a systematic process that includes implementation, maintenance, upgrading, sales, etc. This service is defined within the development management services of Dovan Iranian Company, however, it is sometimes defined separately for other projects as well.

Investment management projects

Asset managers in the real estate industry tend to specialize in specific types of properties, areas, or operations. A very large role of an asset manager includes market research, data analysis and revenue forecasting. For example, rental and lease agreements should be structured to attract tenants, provide flexibility, reduce vacancies, and limit exposure to liability. Resources should be strategically allocated, under-managed resources will negatively impact portfolio value. In many cases, the asset manager chooses a property manager. An asset manager specializes in financial matters, while a property manager specializes in asset performance. This relationship is an important part of real estate investing, much like the way a board of directors should work closely with a company’s CEO or CEO. This functional division was defined for the first time in Iran’s real estate industry by Dovan Iranian:

Asset Management

Most investors look for experienced real estate asset managers because investing in this industry requires full-time energy and time. Below is a list of the main duties of this professional:

  • Ensuring the maximization of portfolio returns
  • Hiring key personnel including property managers
  • Cooperation with managers and leasing consultants
  • Management of cash flow from assets in the portfolio
  • Negotiating contracts
  • Communication with investors and customers

The overall goal of asset management is to maximize asset value and investment returns. This means cutting costs where possible, finding the most stable and highest revenue sources, and reducing liability and risk, among other things.

In a sense, asset managers are entrepreneurs. Many decisions made in real estate asset management, such as negotiations, approvals, and lease analysis, require risk prediction and forecasting. Managers who make the best entrepreneurial decisions with financial capital are usually rewarded with higher profits and larger portfolios. As it can be seen, many services in the field of investment management are provided in the process of contracts of development solutions in Devan Iranian company.

The real estate asset management function consists of asset-level professionals who add value to fund managers by implementing asset-level strategies. Specialists are experts in regional market principles or specific types of real estate and are responsible for optimizing the value of the assets under their management. In addition to providing portfolio management with information on local prospects and facilitating transactions, the asset manager is responsible for performance at the asset level.

In addition to approving budgets and performing cost management, property managers increase their value by managing rent in one or more properties. Although it may seem like a black and white matter, leasing is a complex operation that inevitably determines the value of the asset and the portfolio. Leasing success is achieved not only by finding and executing the highest possible lease opportunities at each property, but also by implementing a leasing program that aligns with the portfolio strategy while maintaining the best relationships with existing tenants. .

Leasing is a highly negotiated process that can involve making decisions against the tenant’s needs in order to optimize the value of the property. For example, for properties that are up for sale, rent may be suspended during the sale period to allow new owners to consider potentially higher rental rates. This can lead to higher projected property values ​​and therefore higher sales offers.

During periods of rising rental rates, long-term leases may be locked in for income-oriented properties, while for strategies focused on capital appreciation, leases may be shortened to take advantage of expected higher rates in the future. An asset manager’s ability to conduct an appropriate tenant mix, implement a leasing strategy that aligns cash flows with portfolio needs, and manage capital and operating expenses can significantly impact the overall value of the portfolio.

Since investment management is a very general and broad concept, in this article we tried to use the specialized terms of real estate. In this industry, the main concepts are categorized under the titles of portfolio management and asset management in international literature. The real estate industry has become a very complex and specialized industry in which profitability requires knowledge and expertise.
