Overview
Key facts
In the first half of London School of Economics and Political Science's Real Estate Economics and Finance course, we will cover the productive and consumption advantages of urban areas and location patterns within cities. We will see how these help determine demand for residential and commercial real estate, as well as looking at differences in supply for different types of properties. We will also discuss the impact of policy, with a special focus on taxation and urban planning.
Equipped with this framework, the second half of the course will explore how demand and supply for space determine real estate asset prices and how to measure them. We will then discuss how those measures can be used to value commercial real estate, as well as other techniques for valuation, focusing on cash-flow analysis. From there, we will explore how those valuations, financial leverage, and portfolio considerations are used to make real estate investment decisions. Finally, we will investigate the drivers of real estate cycles and emerging market trends to study their implications for investment outcomes.Programme Structure
