Asset & Property Management

About

Owing a real estate asset is not anymore just an income generating strategy or a solution to an occupational problem. At a period in which real estate assets, either residential or commercial, tend to become deadweight for owner-occupiers, legacy landlords, family offices and lately lenders as well as NPL servicers due to enforced Debt-to-Asset swaps, conventional asset management strategies might not lead to commercially viable results. It requires specialists to identify suitable property management strategies based on market data and projections, but also to uncover all factors that shape the foundation of the asset owners objectives. The broader asset management process is based on a wide-ranging understanding of the investment cycle and a professional objective view of the market.
