Overview
Module aims and purpose
The module explores the real estate management process; it is evaluated from the perspective of both investors and public/corporate occupiers. The students will be able to apply qualitative and quantitative techniques to analyse the real estate management process and thus make a better judgement on investment and tenure opportunities. Underpinning the module is the application of practical tools and conceptual understanding of the real estate management business.Â
The module aims to provide students with an understanding of the role, responsibilities and skills required of the real estate manager. The management settings include both an investment and a corporate real estate portfolio. Students will therefore learn different qualitative and quantitative techniques to analyse investment but also tenure or occupancy opportunities. Furthermore, they will collate the techniques into various aspects of the real estate management process, critically evaluate them and understand their limitations. Students will also be able to distinguish between different concepts and underlying management processes in real estate and evaluate how the real estate trends in different parts of the world might impact future practices.Â
The module lead at the °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê¿ª½±¼Ç¼ Malaysia is Mr Kee Liang Chin.
