Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook serves as a guide to real estate students and educators on the various property innovations and digital technologies that continue to shape the property industry. The advancement of PropTech in the last few decades has led to significant changes in real estate systems, operations, and practice, and this new textbook provides insight on the past, present, and future of PropTech innovations that have spread across the value chain of real estate through planning, development, management, finance, investment, operations, and transactions. The textbook approaches this subject from the real estate components, asset classes, and submarkets and links them to the associated innovations and digital technologies. It concludes by reviewing the role of education, innovation, skill development, and professionalism as major elements of the future of real estate operations and practice. This book’s unique contributions are in putting the “property” element at the forefront and then illustrating how technology can enhance the various areas of real estate; the focus on how the different innovations and technologies can enhance the economic, environmental, social, and physical efficiency of real estate; and its coverage of some non‐technological innovations like flexible working and more practical areas of real estate innovation such as skills, employability, creativity, and education. It contains 21 case studies and 29 case summaries, which can serve as practice exercises for students. This book will be useful to students in helping them build a knowledge base and understanding of innovation and digital technologies in the industry. Real estate educators can use the textbook as a guide to incorporate real estate innovation and digital technologies into their current teaching and also to develop their real estate curricula through PropTech‐related modules and courses where necessary. It will also be valuable to real estate researchers in search of the theoretical and conceptual linkages, as well as industry practitioners who seek insight into the current and future potential of digital technologies and their applications to real estate operations and practice.

Book excerpt: Note: This is the full colour print version of the book.'Technology will change real estate and however you react to it, you must understand what is going on. This book will help you to do just that.' Dan Hughes, CEO Liquid REI (formerly of RICS).#PropTech: a guide to how property technology is changing how we live, work and invest, is the second title to be published by Richard W J Brown, a.k.a. The Property Voice, following the successful publication of Property Investor Toolkit a few years ago.#PropTech was initially inspired from personal curiosity after Richard started to observe an emerging and growing trend in his industry. The advent of new technologies in other industry sectors, such as e-commerce, financial services, application development and mobile communications started to crossover into the real estate property sector. The real estate property sector is often seen as slow-moving; however, some clear influences are starting to bring about change at a more rapid pace now more than ever. There is a push and pull effect. The push comes from the need for more housing, skills shortages and limited resources generally. The pull comes from homeowners, tenants, developers and investors who want to be more productive, profitable and transfer their experiences elsewhere into their property interests.#PropTech is written by a property investor, homeowner and occasional Airbnb guest with a broad audience in mind. If you are involved with or have an interest in the real estate property sector, either personally as a landlord, homeowner or industry professionally, then this book will have something in it for you!Here are the main chapter headings from within the book:*Construction Technology (ConTech)*Smart Homes & The Internet of Things*Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Tools and Apps*Audio-visual Advances*The Sharing Economy*Financial Technology (FinTech)*Cryptocurrency and The Blockchain*Education Technology (EdTech)*The Big Picture Smart Cities, & MegatrendsPause for a moment and consider that in 2018, when this book was written Rightmove, will have its 18th Birthday, the iPhone is only 10 years old, Airbnb is just 9 years old and Purplebricks is still pre-school at 4 years old. To help put this into context, now we have the likes of Facebook and Google building homes and communities, robot bricklayers and 3D printers that can cut housebuilding from months to just days, 20 million Alexa devices sold allowing people to literally speak commands to their homes, all under the backdrop of a massive growth in Big Data, with 90% of all the world's data ever created coming in the past two years alone! Breakthrough technologies, such as the Internet of Things, Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence are already starting to generate useful applications and will continue to do so. PropTech, is a huge subject area that is going to change property investment, development and indeed our wider lives in myriad ways. There will certainly be some bumps along the way but, PropTech has the potential to create huge opportunity for homeowners, investors and developers alike. However, as with the Internet revolution, there will be winners and losers, and often the first one through the door is the one that gets shot!So, please join me, along with the insights of no less than seventeen PropTech founders, academics, influencers and all-round-know-their-stuff 'subject matter experts', as we lift the lid on what is sure to be a significant area of growth and change for real estate property in the not so distant future. For sure, one thing is for certain...change is coming, whether we like it or not! So, it is probably better to at least be aware of the changes that PropTech is likely to bring, then at least we can prepare, profit or protect as appropriate.You can see more about Richard's work and industry contribution as The Property Voice at www.thepropertyvoice.net.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An examination of the future of our workspaces and how the pandemic will continue to shape how and where we work. In the era of WFH, hybrid working and flexible hours, going to the office is no longer what it used to be. Many businesses and organizations, as well as the entire commercial real estate sector, are struggling to address their new workplace dilemmas in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. With the rise of diverse working practices and new technological innovations, the traditional office space no longer serves the needs of the workforce. And with increasing numbers of staff now comfortable with a degree of working from home, how can companies assess their longer-term workspace needs? This new follow-up edition of Where Is My Office?, fully revised and updated to reflect the true impact of the pandemic on the workplace, highlights some of the bold new frameworks and practical considerations for business leaders, workplace practitioners and those involved in commercial real estate as they navigate the complex post-pandemic working landscape. Authors Chris Kane and Eugenia Anastassiou draw upon their extensive knowledge and experience to investigate the new-found significance of innovative corporate real estate thinking in modern workplaces. Where is My Office?: The Post-Pandemic Edition is a must-read for any business leader or senior manager looking to revitalize their workplace in a post-pandemic environment, and to develop a greater understanding of the beneficial impacts that creative workplace strategies that harness the relationship between people, place, technology, and the environment can have upon their organization's success.

Book excerpt: Technology is revolutionizing the way real estate is designed, operated, and valued. It is democratizing access to capital and information, changing the way tenants use space, and eroding the power of regulation. Billions of dollars are funding these new real estate technologies and operating models. Value is shifting away from the assets themselves toward those who understand the needs of specific end-users and can use technology to deliver comprehensive, on-demand solutions. With all of these developments, there is an urgent need for a resource that helps industry practitioners think differently about their investment, customers, and competition. Rethinking Real Estate answers that call. It explores the impact of technology on all asset types — from retail projects, through lodging and residential properties, to office buildings and industrial facilities. Based on the author’s two decades of experience working across four continents alongside the world’s leading real estate investors, as well as hundreds of conversations with start-up founders and venture capitalists, this book provides practitioners with key insights, methodologies, and practical strategies to identify risks, take advantage of emerging opportunities, evaluate new competitors, and transform their organization, project, venture, or career. Whether you are an investor, developer, operator, broker, lender, facility manager, designer, planner, or technology entrepreneur, this book will help you navigate the exciting period ahead.
