Real Estate:
Euromoney Institutional Investor PLC
Book October 2004
The fifth edition of International Real Estate Finance features articles from leading Real Estate associations such as EPRA, INREV, the International Bar Association and the Asian Development Bank. The yearbook contains a series of specialist articles focusing on major real estate issues, such as REITs, legal perspectives, advances in e-registration for real estate issues, property funds and listed real estate. There are individual country and regional reviews looking at Austria, Asia, Finland, France, Italy, Norway, Poland, Sweden, the UK and US.
"One of the criticisms levelled at property in terms of its suitability for large scale investment is that of “illiquidity”. Property as such (leaving aside presently other forms of property interests such as REIT’s and PIF’s), they say, cannot be bought and sold as quickly as other forms of investment such as stocks and shares. However, property does have other attractions as an investment vehicle as recent comparative market returns have shown.
Growing use by lawyers (and others involved in property) of electronic communications and IT has already had a major impact in expediting the process of property sale and purchase and will, in my view, continue to grow as the property world gets more comfortable with its use."
Diana Benjamin, Co-Chair of the Real Estate Law Committee, The International Bar Association
