This podcast episode introduces commercial real estate as an asset class, outlining its categories like office and retail. It discusses advantages and disadvantages of real estate, including inflation hedging and illiquidity, and categorizes real estate equity styles as core, value-added, and opportunistic. The text then covers real estate development, viewing it through a real options lens, and explains valuation approaches such as comparable sales and income approaches, including cap rates and discount rate estimation. Finally, it examines alternative real estate investment vehicles like private and public funds, including REITs, crowdfunded real estate and introduces real estate indices and the concept of smoothed return series due to illiquidity.
