This video demonstrates our process for upgrading buildings with exceptional amenities, making them highly desirable for tenants. These improvements result in our buildings being fully occupied, with tenants ready to pay a significant premium for the enhanced experience. This trend highlights the future of office spaces, where quality and convenience are paramount. As more employees realize the disadvantages of remote work, they are choosing to return to the office environment. This shift underscores the importance of high-quality office spaces that cater to the needs and preferences of modern workers. #office #commercialRealEstate #premiumoffice #amenities #flighttoquality

Big news in the BostonRealEstate scene! Ashford Hospitality Trust just sold the 502-room Crowne Plaza hotel downtown for a cool $125m, a significant increase from their $89.5m purchase in 2011. What's more, $26.4m of the deal went towards property improvement. Wow! It's clear the price of Boston buildings is growing. But this deal raises an interesting question: Are we investing enough in property improvements for our existing assets? And is this something we often overlook in our strategy? 🤔 Upscale full-service hotels are Ashford's specialty. Yet, how much value is added through extensive renovations and upgrades? And can this strategy be applied to your portfolio? Maintaining value through property improvement is crucial, but easily neglected in the race for new acquisitions. Let's reflect on our current stance. Are we perhaps missing a trick in the BostonCondo and BostonHome markets? Reach out to me at the TurcoGroup, and let's delve deep into your real estate strategy. We'll identify potential blind spots and work towards maximizing your assets. Don't leave cash on the table. In a city like Boston, the devil is in the detail. #careers #BostonRealtor #MovemetoBoston

Serviced living is the cornerstone of operational real estate, and the focus on this area reflects intense investor interest. This year serviced living is the theme for The Operational Real Estate Festival which will be held on Thursday, June 27th, at The Pullman London St Pancras.

🏡 Exciting times in UK housing! Vistry's game-changing deal to build 1,750 homes for the private rental market shines a spotlight on innovative partnerships reshaping the future of living spaces.💡🤝 I'm awed by the sheer scale: £580m development value, with a strategic rollout across 36 sites, primarily in the South East. The dynamic partnership between Vistry, Blackstone Real Estate, and Regis, managed by Leaf Living, is a powerful collaboration driving this ambitious venture.🏗️🌳 This isn't just about homes; it's about communities. Vistry's distinctive approach, by pre-selling 65% of homes, isn't just smart—it's securing the pipeline, stabilizing the supply chain, and underpinning financial targets.📈🔐 With the first completions expected by June's end, the acceleration is tangible, setting the stage to tackle the UK's pressing housing shortage.🇬🇧🔨 Here's to partnerships propelling progress, to quality homes, and vibrant new communities.🌟🏘️ What are your thoughts on these partnerships shaping the future of housing? #HousingDevelopment #InnovationInConstruction #CommunityBuilding

Another successful AHICE conference has come and gone in Adelaide Oval earlier this month, and it was my pleasure to be a part of it! I had the opportunity to join 'The Money' panel with Rahul Parrab Adrian Archer (API, FRICS) Adil Moosa and Andrew Langsford, where we discussed money flow, investment trends that work in the increasing build cost environment. In the panel discussion, I shared a few financial feasibilities and project trends that stack up: - luxury hotel with branded residence component; - converting existing underperformed hotel/ motel into co-living product; - regional resort looking into modular/ pre-fabrication solution; - turn-key development and management platforms and glamping project. Investors are also increasingly looking into value-add components from acquiring existing assets and diversifying risks via accommodation real estate versus other forms of commercial real estate. Overall, it was a great discussion and an insightful event. #AHICE #hotelinvestment #commercialrealestate

Thank you to my wonderful panel for making moderating at the The Operational Real Estate Festival so enjoyable today (some feedback said it was the best session of the day - just saying ☺️). Honor Barratt, Jamie Harris, Stuart Henderson and Philip Lassman spent a good thirty minutes discussing Overlapping Opportunity. Key points were: 👉 hotels have been generating multiple streams of income for hundreds of years and diversifying from just bed nights but planning in other sectors such as PBSA prevents this. 👉 merging later living and student accommodation transcends simplified demographic segmentation. 👉 investors are increasingly spanning asset classes so is combining different operational real estate segments inevitable? 👉 does this approach challenge the simple competitor analysis when your competition could be literally any residential building? 👉 is marketing partly responsible for creating residential silos (thank you Honor Barratt for throwing that one back at me!) 👉 PBSA design and operational models aren’t geared up even for summer/short term lets effectively, never mind any further opportunities such as F&B or coworking to maximise otherwise underutilised spaces Thank you Andrew Sangster and Sarah Sangster for bringing people together from different parts of the operational real estate sector and creating a day of vibrant conversation. #realestate #pbsa #hospitality #btr #coliving #laterliving
