AFIRE is the association for international real estate investors focused on commercial property in the United States.
关于我们
For more than 30 years, AFIRE has been the essential thought leadership forum for international investors focused on the US property markets. Three decades of relevance is a significant and laudable achievement for any organization, but maturation comes with challenges as well. The inertia of old habits, for one thing; and the existential discomfort of change, for another. Age is not a license to blindly repeat old formulas, nor is it an excuse to reject all that has worked in the past. Whether we like it or not, the world (and our industry) is changing. The certainty of old habits will always eventually reveal itself to be an illusion, and as many of us have learned the hard way, that revelation often occurs after damage has been done. In the last 30 years, the nature of thought leadership itself has also changed. At one time, only certain kinds of experts were allowed to introduce perspectives or ideas to the general discourse. But as our lives have become more integrated with our professions, and media (especially digital media) has become decentralized and open to all, thought leadership is now a shared responsibility. As Microsoft’s former director of business insights Daniel Rasmus puts it, “Thought leadership should be an entry point to a relationship.” But how new is shared thought leadership, really? Before the 20th Century, when passive acceptance of “experts’” ideas were the rule, thought leadership was more of a group activity. There’s no coincidence that Plato’s ideas come to us in the form of dialogues rather than eloquent lectures. True understanding is revealed through relationships. Shared thought leadership, therefore, is essential to AFIRE’s mission: to help us all become Better Investors, Better Leaders, and Better Global Citizens.

What do commercial real estate investors need to understand about artificial intelligence? How is AI changing real estate today? And what’s the future of AI in real estate? AFIRE interviewed three experts on the subject and compiled a summary video designed to educate real estate executives and their teams. “I believe real estate investors are underestimating two main things about the impact of AI on the industry,” says Matias Recchia, Co-Founder and CEO of Keyway, going on to say that the technology will create much more efficiency, and liquidity, than people realize. “The reason you need artificial intelligence in commercial real estate is to allow for a new level of efficiency in interacting with the software,” says David Franklin, Principal, CRE & AI, Yardi. “It’s almost like the advent of the mouse…. It opened up the world to a whole new set of possibilities.” “So much of the data that exists within commercial real estate is very unstructured,” says Drew Conway, Head of Data Science, Private Investments, Two Sigma. “Lease documents… offering memorandums… PDF files that are not connected or structured in any way. A lot of the technology that exists today… can really consume that data and produce structure very, very quickly… And some of that is already happening.” Register today for the next AFIRE Event here: https://lnkd.in/gqChSYfg AFIRE POV interviews sum up how the industry’s experts are feeling about the most important topics in commercial real estate investing. Established in 1988, the Association of Foreign Investors in Real Estate (AFIRE) is the association for international real estate investors focused on commercial property in the United States. AFIRE currently welcomes more than 180 member organizations from 25 countries with approximately $3 trillion AUM in the US.

In our latest multifamily asset class update, our panel makes the case that the asset class forecast features “mixed current conditions but momentum mounting.” Some of that momentum comes from niche markets, such as student housing, seniors’ housing, active adult and single-family rentals. And while the sector as a whole is experiencing a cyclic slowdown, fundamentals will stabilize and market health will return in the 5-10 year time frame. “[If] you invest earlier in recoveries, you tend to do better," says Sabrina Unger, Managing Director, Research and Strategy, American Realty Advisors. “And I think that’s going to hold true in multifamily when we look back on this period.” Unger’s pick for one prime investment opportunity? She suggests investors buy below replacement costs now, make the sort of value-added renovations that today’s renters desire, and offer units at rates that are just below those of the brand-new class-A multifamily properties.? Also featuring perspectives from: ? stephen benjamin, Managing Partner & CEO, The Dermot Company, LP Company ?

Seeking diverting reading material? Try the Summit Journal guide to AI and commercial real estate, which provides a useful synopsis on the ways machine learning will impact the industry. While AI's effects in #CRE remain nascent, article authors Daniel Carr and Andrew Peng, and Wayne Teo, suggest that #AI will enhance operations along two distinct verticals: In-Asset (by improving property performance) and Out-of-Asset (by enhancing deal ecosystem workflows). "Early adopters," they write, "can position themselves at a competitive advantage, which can lead to outsized returns for investors."

APAC operators preparing for an explosion in AI uptake have embarked on a huge buildout of data center infrastructure, observe the CapitaLand team of Michelle Lee, Eugene S. and Wayne Teo in the latest AFIRE Summit Journal. As a result, they write that network providers and technology multinationals are now churning out ever-larger new facilities to accommodate expanding data storage and processing infrastructure. Together, these factors are creating new opportunities for early-stage commercial real estate investment in what remains an emerging regional asset class.
