realdata: New Article... "For Real Estate Investors: A Lesson in Clarity" - 09/14/11 04:55 PM
Recently, I was conducting the last class in my course on real estate investment analysis that I teach in Columbia’s MSRED program.  I had assigned my 55 students a series of case studies (much like those in my book, Mastering Real Estate Investment) and told them to build financial pro forms and discuss the reasoning behind their analyses. After reading and commenting on all those analyses, I felt there was one overarching theme on which I wanted to focus my final remarks to the troops: The theme was “clarity.”
Trying to reduce a course to a single word might seem unrealistic … (0 comments)

Is it better to invest in residential property or commercial? I hear this question fairly often, and it should come as no surprise that there isn’t a one-word answer. You’ll arrive at your best choice – the one that maximizes your chances for success – by working through a decision process that includes some “global” issues, some local, and some that are entirely personal.I've written an article on the subject entitled Investing in Real Estate: Should You Buy Residential or Commercial Property? where I try to list out many of the pros and cons. I hope you find it helpful.
