Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Real estate has traditionally been a cornerstone of national wealth and a key asset that significantly influences the economy. As such, conceptualizing, measuring, and managing the value of real estate has always been crucial. Historically, real estate has been understood primarily as a physical entity—one comprising land, buildings, materials, and construction. As such, the risk analysis and financial management approaches used in real estate have been slow to adopt more traditional risk management frameworks, which have evolved in other sectors.
However, as the real estate sector transforms, its understanding and valuation have evolved as well. Moving from a focus on its physical utility, real estate is now being seen through various lenses, from its provision of services and activities to its increasingly virtual and abstract dimensions. This shift is fundamentally altering how real estate is integrated into economic models and strategies.
With these changes, the determinants of the value of real estate are evolving, affecting traditional measurement models and methods. This Special Issue will explore how these shifts in the conceptualization and value determinants of real estate create new risks for investors, developers, and financial managers. It will also focus on identifying these emerging risks and proposing conceptual, empirical, and methodological approaches to measuring and managing them.
We invite contributions that examine both the changing nature of real estate risks and the financial management strategies needed to address them. The papers in this Special Issue may present new conceptual frameworks, risk measurement models, and empirical studies that provide insights into how financial management in real estate can adapt to these evolving challenges. By addressing these pressing issues, this Special Issue seeks to advance the field and promote more resilient, future-proof strategies for managing real estate assets in a rapidly changing environment.
