Planning, Public Policy and Property Markets

Michael White

The focus of this book is on how public policy – and especially the planning system – both shapes and reflects the essential characteristics of land and property markets. It challenges the common misconceptions that property markets operate in isolation from public policy and that planning permission is the only significant form of state intervention in the market. Planning, Public Policy & Property Markets contends that effective state-market relations in land and property are critical to a prosperous economy and a robust democracy, especially at a time when development aims to be sustainable and environmental protection needs to be matched by urban and rural regeneration. The book thus reflects an increased realisation among academics and practitioners of the importance of theoretical integration and ‘joined-up’ policy-making. Its rounded perspective addresses a significant weakness in the academic literature and will encourage broader debate and a more pluralist agenda for property research. Prominent contributors present important new research on different market sectors and policy arenas, including regeneration and renewal, housing growth, housing planning, transport and economic competitiveness, while the editors specifically draw out more general lessons on the dynamic nature of the state/property market relationship in a modern economy. This book will encourage all those involved in property research who strive for theoretical and practical connectivity to demonstrate that, just as property market operations cannot be analysed without understanding state processes, policy decisions cannot be taken without an appreciation of how the market operates.

Housing and Welfare in Southern Europe

Thomas Maloutas

The growing literature on comparative European housing policy has played a major part in developing our understanding of the way housing in provided in different countries, and in the way the interaction between the stat, market and civil society is conceptualized. However, much of this analysis is rooted without question in the welfare states of northern Europe – there has been almost no research published in English on the provision of housing in southern Europe. Such research as exists deals with specific feature of housing policy, invariably in a single country. There is probably a better understanding of the housing systems of the former communist countries than those of southern Europe.

Economics, Real Estate and the Supply of Land

Группа авторов

The book draws together the economic literature relating to the supply of land for development. The standard view appears to be that the owners of land have no interest other than to allow their land to be used for the activity which would yield the highest income. But in reality this is not so and the book's aim is to demonstrate this, to set out the reasons and to show the economic effects of the fact that landowners have other motives. The book covers the supply of land for urban development and shows how land has characteristics which differentiate it from other factors of production which will also affect its supply for some uses, e.g. land is fixed in location and its price and value are inseparable from where it is. New light is cast on the market for land (by concentrating on the supply side), and on land use planning (by taking an economic viewpoint).

Long Property

Daniel Gold

STOP! This is <i>not</i> a get rich quick scheme.<br /><br />
If you’re looking to double your money in six months, or if you want ten properties in ten weeks, then you may as well stop reading now. <br /><br /> Successful homebuyers and property investors understand that property is a long-term investment. They follow proven systems for buying assets that will appreciate in value, and they set up loan structures sensibly and correctly to support this. <br /><br /> Strategic investors have plans. They set goals like:<br /> – I want to own my home outright (with no debt); and<br /> – I want to retire with $120,000 per annum passive income from investments<br /> <br /><br /> Then they work with a team of specialists (finance brokers, buyers advocates, accountants, solicitors) to make educated decisions, and to execute accordingly. <br /><br /> In LONG PROPERTY, top finance broker Daniel Gold sets out a strategic wealth plan towards home ownership and retirement. It’s the exact opposite to what (unfortunately) dominates the residential property and finance industries – no plan, no strategy – just getting a cheap interest rate, and buying sub-optimal properties. <br /><br /> In this educational new book you will discover:<br /> – Why the outlook for well located residential property in Australia is remarkably positive<br /> – How your retirement objectives can be met via a strategic long-term investment journey<br /> – How to navigate today’s banking system and utilise advanced finance structures for wealth creation<br /> – How strategic investors use the ‘GLOW’ model to buy the tiny percentage of properties (maybe 2%) actually worth buying, and how they don’t overpay – case studies included; and<br /> – How working with specialists could easily save you or make you hundreds of thousands of dollars <br /><br /> LONG PROPERTY is the book you wish you read in your 20's. It will help you know where you’re heading, so you can start making smarter property and finance decisions today. <br /><br /> DANIEL GOLD is a leading finance broker specialising in residential real estate.

Conveyancing Victoria 2020-21

Simon Libbis

Welcome to your 2020-21 edition of Conveyancing Victoria – The Ultimate Guide.<br />There has been a lot going on in the world of conveyancing since the last edition. Electronic settlement and lodgment are now the norm. The Sale of Land Act is still being amended and interpreted by the Supreme Court. Practitioners have a greater responsibility for the calculation and collection of state and federal taxes. We have a new contract of sale. These are among the developments covered in this edition.<br />The pace of change shows no sign of letting up. It is more important than ever to keep up to date with legislation, cases and processes.<br />One of the great pleasures of authoring this book is the opportunity to continue working with my good friend Louis de Vries of Hybrid Publishers. I doubt that I could keep doing this without his encouragement, support and occasional gentle cajoling. Hopefully we will continue in this vein for years to come.<br />The Law Institute bookshop sells a lot of these books. I am always grateful for the feedback and advice provided by Owen Hyde, who manages the bookshop. He gets an &quot;honourable mention&quot;.<br />– Simon Libbis, February 2020

Shaky Ground

Bethany McLean

In a way, the situation is ironic: housing was at the root of the financial crisis, and six years after the meltdown, housing finance is still the greatest unsolved issue. The U.S. housing market is roughly $10 trillion, making it one of the largest segments of the bond market. Roughly 70 percent of the American population has a mortgage, and for most people, the mortgage is the most important financial instrument in their lives. But until the financial crisis, few people knew the essential role that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac play in their mortgages. Given the $188 billion government bailout of the two firms &#151; the most expensive bailout in history &#151; the politics surrounding housing are worse than they've ever been, and the two gigantic firms sit in limbo. Best-selling investigative journalist Bethany McLean, the coauthor of The Smartest Guys in the Room and All the Devils Are Here, explains why the situation is dangerous and unsustainable, and proposes a few solutions &#151; from the perfect, but politically unfeasible to the doable, but ugly.

The Due Diligence Process Plan Handbook for Commercial Real Estate Investments

Brian Hennessey

This handbook was created to save investors time and money, create additional value and to avoid the potential pitfalls in purchasing commercial real estate, as well as give an overview of the due diligence process. If you&#39;re an investor looking to buy a triplex, an industrial building or a shopping center; a property/asset manager helping a client to purchase properties or a real estate broker looking to add to your knowledge base to help clients to invest, this information will be invaluable. It is written in a concise pragmatic fashion as a real due diligence tool and is not intended as a voluminous textbook of information on the subject. It is based upon over 28 years of experience in the commercial real estate business and acquiring over 9 million square feet of office properties, from private and institutional owners. The information it contains is applicable to all commercial real estate investments. The fundamentals remain the same whether you&#39;re buying apartment rental units, shopping centers or skyscrapers. We need reminding as much as we need learning. There are many different aspects of an investment that require investigation. You need a reference tool to help you to remember the questions to ask, the places and problems to look for, and where to uncover the various potential trip wires and booby traps that can possibly cause you issues, as well as money, after you purchase the property. That&#39;s why I originally wrote this reference book for my own benefit. There are just too many things to remember off the top of your head. I still refer to it regularly.
