Many countries of latinamerica are looking at the european investors only like people with money, they usually don’t understand that the investos want to reproduce the money not to give them.

Some companies in Brazil are working with a great focus to European Investors but this companies are a little part in an ocean of new entrepreneurs in Real Estate. This companies are working very good with the european investor because they know that the prices must to be good, there is an important possibility to analize annual yield (between a 5% and a 7%) and a possible success exit with at least a 15% percent in 2 years.

These companies are the companies that in 10 years are going to be really big industrial groups with and expansive movement to the rest of the latinamerican countries.

ADVANTAGES of Real Estate Investment

In addition to the investment performance and portfolio diversification benefits available from investing in REITs, REITs offer several advantages not found in companies across other industries. These benefits are part of the reason why REITs have become increasingly popular with investors over the past decade:

Predictable Revenue Stream

REITs’ reliable income is derived from, rents paid to the owners of commercial properties, whose tenants often sign leases for long periods of time, or interest payments from the financing of those properties. In addition, the companies’ ownership of tangible assets with established values tends to reduce risk.

Earnings Transparency

Most REITs operate along a straightforward and easily understandable business model: By increasing property occupancy rates and rents, higher levels of income may be produced. When reporting financial results, REITs, like other public companies, must report earnings per share based on net income as defined by generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP).

Another way year-to-year financial progress can be gauged is by comparing levels of Funds From Operations (FFO). FFO, the industry’s supplemental performance measure, differs mainly from net income by excluding depreciation and amortization of real estate assets and gains and losses from most property sales.

Given the broad range of real estate property sectors and business lines, there also are a number of additional earnings metrics, which are used by REITs in order to provide   investors with a greater level of insight into their performance.

REIT Investing In Spain 2008

Many factors affect the value of a REIT’s share price beginning with the earnings tied to oftentimes predictable and growing streams of rental revenue and a price-earnings multiple assigned by the marketplace. Today Spain offers to REIT,  prices for rental assets way below 2007. It is market consensus that the market adjustment will give today investor an interesting returns. There is an increasing demand on rentals. REITS are the ideal vehicles to invest in residential to rent. As simple as it may seen, when undervalued assets are bought, REIT´s valuation by NAV improve and many REIT analysts look at net asset value (NAV) as a reference point for the valuation of a company. NAV equals the estimated market value of a REIT’s total assets minus the value of all liabilities.

When divided by the number of common shares outstanding, the net asset value per share is viewed by some as a useful guideline for determining the appropriate level of share price. Thus, the value of a REIT’s shares may be based on the value of its tangible real estate holdings.

After the market in Spain say “no” to continue working with the banks like lenders, working on the way of the “promoter lend”, where they was financing a 100% of the RE promotion and subrrogating the lend like a mortgage to the final buyer.

Is possible that after the crisis this way don`t continue living because anyone could promote, and for large projects the Real Estate Funds could be a very good alternative always that work like a perfect complement to the bank lend, in Spain banks can lend between a 50% and a 80% of the project and the rest of financing must be done with the company funds or Real Estate Funds that support the project.

This funds like to invest in projects that are going to be development in several years, so for them is a good way to manage their cashflow in order to the funds they receive annually.

Real Estate Funds have a variable that define their work philosophy that is call “voracity” of the fund, if they are very dinamic they have a high voracity, this means a great interest to invest the money they receive from their investors quickly and focusing in a project line.

Is possible that the specialization from now in advance do that Real Estate Funds or Real Estate Hedge Funds begin to arise like a new investment movement and hundred of these Hedge could be defining working for short term periods or to invest in a few of projects, having a fund live not more of 5 years.

Real Estate companies with a lot of prople working will have to reduce cost using IT and Internet with more flexibility that the rest of companies.

In Spain there are companies with big estructural costs that do that the company have a ballast. Little companies working with less costs are faster working and are thinking only in operations, not in how to reduce costs laying off staff.

Internet offer to companies the possibility of expand quicker, working in a distribuited map and contribute with a better service to property holders and investors, working with their sell or invest interests in order to the goal of the company, this means, focus on the operations and having a very good rotate operational.

One of the things that Zentrica have been improving is the possibility to offer to our investors information like if they where working with a big bank or an investment bank, information about how the investment vehicles we do are having their movements, expectations and profits for investors and shareholders of the vehicle company.

Our main focus markets are Europe and Latinamerican markets and in these markets you have to be very informed about the general situation, mainly in Latinamerican, like with the Politic situation to move quickly interest or to desinvest having profits is its necessary. Countries like Venezuela for many people y very secure and for a lot of people is a very dangerous market, we know several Real Estate investors selling all the properties they have there a.s.a.p and re-investing in Spain, mainly Madrid and Barcelona and doing this in products like little buildings in the center of these cities.
