The Real Estate Markets • A Market is a mechanism for exchange of goods and services between owners • There are two markets for real estate • Space Market • Market for the usage of real property • Pay rental rates for usage • Asset Investment Market • For Ownership of the physical asset (land and built facilities)
The Space Market • On the supply side Property Owners • On the demand side Tenants/users of space • The Space Market deals with Physical Assets Therefore: • Highly segmented market • By location • Office Space in New York much higher than Columbus • By Property Type • Office vs retail vs housing vs land
The Asset Market • Market of Investors buying and selling properties • The Asset Market deals with Financial Capital • Much more a function of Money flows over time • Less segmented • Values are based upon risk and return equally across Locations and property types. • Values Based upon CAP Rates
Capitalization Rates • Three Main Determinants of Cap Rates • Opportunity Cost of Capital • How much can your money earn in other investments like stocks and bonds. • Cap Rates move with Interest Rates • Growth Expectations • Where is the property in its Life Cycle • Is the location a growing or declining area • Investors willing to pay more for growth prospects • Risk • Higher Risk Lower price (higher CAP rate)
Property Value Price of Property = Expected Annual Cash Flow CAP Rate As Cap rate goes up Price goes down. As Cap rate goes Down Price goes up
