RE Asset Management Resources & Books

Guys, I need some help.

Any resources (articles, case studies, frameworks) or books that you can recommend for Real Estate Asset Management?

In particular anything relating to "Asset Management" of the following: - *Development projects of all types (hotel, office, mixed use). - Hotels. - Other RE portfolios.

I'm not talking about general real estate finance books or general real estate deal making books, rather a specific resource for professional / institutional real estate asset managers.

  • I'm particularly interested in resources targeting the asset management / investor supervision of development projects as I might start to get involved in post acquisition aspects of deals that we are looking at (distressed and green field).

For any of you guys involved in asset management or who have studied the process as part of your Masters in RE, I would appreciate any tips on where to look to get up to speed.

feuerwerkIt is going to be a challenge finding specific materials which will give detailed insight as each deal will be different, specifically in the distressed/opportunistic realm.

Can you be more specific of what information you are looking for? I may be able to help.

Maybe a scenario would help:

  • Assume that we've taken control of a hotel and want to put a plan for development / expansion of the hotel.
  • What processes does one put in place for financial monitoring of the development, purchase of Fixtures, Fittings and Equipment and such? Is this a project management issue? Is it a management accounting issue?
  • What metrics do you use to monitor this? How do you make sure you don't get screwed by the guys doing the work and that the budget is followed?

I don't expect that there is a concise resource for this, but would love any practical insight.
