Unpacking ULI’s Report with Lisette Van Dorn
In the trailer for this season I mentioned the report ULI released at MIPIM in partnership with The Instant Group titled:
Bridging the Occupier-Landlord Gap for The Future of Workspace
Lisette Van Doorn, Chief Exec of ULI Europe (Urban Land Institute) joins me for Episode 1 this season to dive into the details of this report.

I’ve been saying for several years there is a growing gap between supply and demand in the office sector.
So reading this report over dinner my first night in Cannes to prep for this MIPIM episode was exciting for me!
In this episode Lisette explains why there is a growing gap between supply and demand for office real estate…and what steps supply needs to make to prevent assets from losing value.
We unpack the ULI-Instant report and uncover the hurdles real estate companies face:
Lisette talks about what office customers expect today and which office assets may soon lose value. And of course my second favorite topic comes up as we challenge existing valuation methodologies.
Do current valuations represent the actual value of buildings?
On that note, check out this week's Tweet by my friend Dror Poleg.
Lisette goes on to make the case for the office real estate industry to work collaboratively to evolve, leading us to learn about ULI’s C-change initiative and how you can get involved.
Register for ULI's Europe Conference in Madrid, Spain 5-8 June (I'll see you there!)

Value Bombs:
"In this uneasy juxtaposition of the shorthand, long-term challenges in real estate the environmental, social and governance ESG agenda has become the unifying thread that links everyone, regardless of sector." - Caleb
"Your tenant is critically looking at whether he wants to stay in the building, not just from demand, but is the space laid out right? The location does it have access to public transport, but also the energy efficiency part and therefore what the tenant pays in total of occupancy costs is hugely important". - Lisette
"The office is there to stay. But that doesn't mean that the office stock we have now responds to that." - Lisette
"What you've seen in the past two decades is real estate has become a full fledged investment class. And sometimes we seem to forget that real estate is also our infrastructure." - Lisette

"CapEx is not a cost. CapEx ensures that your building stays liquid and you have a rental income, and that is not fully understood at the moment." - Lisette
"It is a cost, but in the end it helps us to retain the long-term value of our buildings." - Lisette

1 年To Lisette Van Doorn 's point about valuation models, I've come to believe that every spreadsheet must have an underlying story to justify its existence. Without a story, it's too likely that someone will fall victim to spreadsheet blindness based on either a misinterpretation of the numbers or a misguided belief that the numbers represent the entire picture. I read an article by a former business school dean where he discussed this phenomenon, describing newly minted MBAs who acted as though everything was quantifiable and everything their spreadsheets told them was gospel. I don't think reputations and relationships (i.e. brands) are quantifiable. Nor do I believe valuation spreadsheets that include space as a service can be properly understood and interpreted without understanding the reputations and relationships at play. Story first. Then numbers. Not the other way around.
