Book Description
This textbook serves as a guide to real estate students and educators on the various property innovations and digital technologies that continue to shape the property industry. The advancement of PropTech in the last few decades has led to significant changes in real estate systems, operations, and practice, and this new textbook provides insight on the past, present, and future of PropTech innovations that have spread across the value chain of real estate through planning, development, management, finance, investment, operations, and transactions. The textbook approaches this subject from the real estate components, asset classes, and submarkets and links them to the associated innovations and digital technologies. It concludes by reviewing the role of education, innovation, skill development, and professionalism as major elements of the future of real estate operations and practice. This book’s unique contributions are in putting the “property” element at the forefront and then illustrating how technology can enhance the various areas of real estate; the focus on how the different innovations and technologies can enhance the economic, environmental, social, and physical efficiency of real estate; and its coverage of some non‐technological innovations like flexible working and more practical areas of real estate innovation such as skills, employability, creativity, and education. It contains 21 case studies and 29 case summaries, which can serve as practice exercises for students. This book will be useful to students in helping them build a knowledge base and understanding of innovation and digital technologies in the industry. Real estate educators can use the textbook as a guide to incorporate real estate innovation and digital technologies into their current teaching and also to develop their real estate curricula through PropTech‐related modules and courses where necessary. It will also be valuable to real estate researchers in search of the theoretical and conceptual linkages, as well as industry practitioners who seek insight into the current and future potential of digital technologies and their applications to real estate operations and practice.

REAL ESTATE
Author: Prabhu TL
Publisher: NestFame Creations Pvt Ltd.
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 109
Book Description
Property, land, buildings, air rights above the land, and subsurface rights below the land are all examples of real estate. Real, or tangible, property is referred to by this phrase. Real estate also refers to the production, purchase, and sale of property as a business word. It has an impact on the US economy because it is a key generator of economic growth. Owners of real estate were formerly denied voting privileges under the United States Constitution. Real Estate Definition and Examples Real estate, often known as "real property," is formally defined as land plus any other physical improvement that may be built on or placed on it. The enhancement could be a new structure or a new road. A septic system, for example, is an example of anything that has been placed into the ground. It is said that land with any of these constructions has been "improved." When it doesn't have them, it's considered "enhanced." Your home, as well as any vacant land you may own, is real estate. A skyscraper in New York City or an area of undeveloped desert land that can't be built on are both examples of real estate. What Makes Real Estate Work? Because real estate does not just exist, it has several sides. It has the ability to progress from unimproved to better. It is available for purchase or sale. It could be owned by the government, a corporation, or a private individual. However, certain elements can have a direct impact on the economy, such as consistent land improvement and the individuals and companies that allow ownership transfers. Building of New Structures The construction of new homes is a crucial category. Construction of single-family homes, townhouses, and condominiums are all included. The National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) publishes data on home sales and prices on a monthly basis. New house sales statistics are a leading economic indicator. For new properties sold, it takes four months to establish a pattern. The NAHB also keeps track of new home starts, or the number of new home construction projects that have broken ground. Agents of Real Estate Individuals, businesses, and investors use real estate brokers to buy and sell homes. Typically, the industry is separated into specialisations. Through the Multiple Listing Service or their professional contacts, sellers or listing agents assist in the search for purchasers. They price your home using "comparables," or "comps," which are listings of recently sold properties that are similar to yours. They may assist you in sprucing up your home so that it appeals to potential purchasers. They aid in discussions with the buyer or the buyer's agent in order to obtain the best price. For the home buyer, buyer's agents provide similar services. They are familiar with the local market and can locate a property that satisfies your most stringent requirements. They also "do comps," which is the practise of comparing costs. This enables them to direct you to places that are cost-effective. Buyers' agents represent you in negotiations, bringing up reasons why the seller should accept a lower offer. They can assist you with the legal aspects of the transaction, such as title searches, inspections, and financing. REALTORS are real estate agents that desire to improve their professionalism.

Transforming Japanese Business
Author: Anshuman Khare
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811503273
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 274
Book Description
This book explores how the business transformation taking place in Japan is influenced by the digital revolution. Its chapters present approaches and examples from sectors commonly understood to be visible arenas of digital transformation—3D printing and mobility, for instance—as well as some from not-so-obvious sectors, such as retail, services, and fintech. Business today is facing unprecedented change especially due to the adoption of new, digital technologies, with a noticeable transformation of manufacturing and services. The changes have been brought by advanced robotics, the emergence of artificial intelligence, and digital networks that are growing in size and capability as the number of connected devices explodes. In addition, there are advanced manufacturing and collaborative connected platforms, including machine-to-machine communications. Adoption of digital technology has caused process disruptions in both the manufacturing and services sectors and led to new business models and new products. While examining the preparedness of the Japanese economy to embrace these changes, the book explores the impact of digitally influenced changes on some selected sectors from a Japanese perspective. It paints a big picture in explaining how a previously manufacturing-centric, successful economy adopts change to retain and rebuild success in the global environment. Japan as a whole is embracing, yet also avoiding—innovating but also restricting—various forms of digitalization of life and work. The book, with its 17 chapters, is a collaborative effort of individuals contributing diverse points of view as technologists, academics, and managers.
