Understanding Real Estate Companies

Asset managers practitioners responsible for managing the asset life cycle do not always have the opportunity working on all the life cycle phases. This is specially true for most real estate asset managers, if they work with Real Estate Investment Trusts (RIETs) they are likely to deal with some O&M, compliance, valuation, and acquisitions. However, for those practitioners working with Real Estate Developers the challenges are quite different..

When it comes to Real Estate Developers, it is not even abbreviated like (REDS) for example. Maybe there is no common agreement on abbreviation as REDS may have many inclinations; however, REDVs is used by some and it is perhaps more appropriate. Apparently the business model is not uniform across REDVs either, there hundreds of business models that companies operate under. The good part is that the steps towards building a business model are the same as it involves planning and investment calculation.

As investment is mentioned, what about the Real Estate Investment companies (REICs or REIGs), what do they do  and how RIETs, REDVs compare in their investment style. REIGs have similar activities to RIETs without restrictions on how revenues are generated. REIGs buy, sell, rent, maintain and manage properties.
