Global Trends
Globalisation
• Shift of activity between and within regions
• Growing number of consumers in emerging economies/changing consumer
tastes
• Increasingly global labour and talent markets
• Increasing constraints on the supply and usage of natural resources
• Shifting industry structures / emerging forms of corporate organization
• Geopolitical instability
• Increasing sophistication of capital markets
• But also increasing Hysteria!
• SARS,
• Terrorism
• Swine flu
• Ash cloud…..
8
Global Trends
Tertiarisation of Jobs
• Growth of public sector - decrease of jobs in primary sector and on traditional
industries, increase in the service sector and also in sectors related to the
knowledge economy
Employment trends
• In 2015 around 30% of all jobs need high skills and 50% medium qualifications.
The demand for low qualifications will fall from a third in 1996 to around 20%.
• Skill needs will grow in every occupation
• Sectors identified as potential creators of work in the future are: aerospace,
audiovisual industry, aviation, banks and insurance companies, defence,
ecological economy, information technology, pharmaceutical, safety, media,
transports, tourism and travels.
• And Real Estate?
9
Global Trends
Demographics
• World population in 2015 will be 7.2 billion, up from 6.1 billion in the year 2000
• 2007: more then 50% of global population are city dweller
• Combination of population growth, migration and urbanisation will foster instability
• Declining birth rates and aging in advanced countries will leave significant shortfalls in
the size and capacity of the work force (iPad kills sex)
• Demand for qualified workers (quality vs. quantity)
• Brain drain
• In some developing countries same trends will combine to expand the size of the
working population and reduce the youth bulge – increasing the potential for economic
growth and political stability
• But how to benefit from the best ager?
10
Global Trends
Information Society
• Development of technologies empower
consumers and communities (online
connectivity)
• Adoption of increasingly scientific and
data-driven management techniques
• Increasing availability of knowledge and
the ability to exploit it
• Faster pace of technological innovation
• Dissolution of space or necessity of
centralization, access to IUK
technologies
11
Explosion of Information
Dramatic Reduction of Half-Life
“The limits of my language mean
the limits of my world”
Ludwig Wittgenstein, Engineer and Philosopher
• Between 2000 and 2008 there was more data
produced than it has been in the last 40.000
years
• Quadruplicating of data between 2005 and
2008

The weekend edition of the New York Times
contained more information than a human
being has taken in a hundred years ago
during his entire life!

Overstraining and Burn-out
suffering
Employee
Lower influence on schedule of
job history
• The working environment is getting more complex. Employees have to manage their career much
more on their own initiative than before.
• A fluid and rapidly changing business market means that employees need regular training: soft
skills like adaptability, communication, and emotional intelligence are becoming more important,
particularly when working across cultures.

Real Estate Market Research
Definition and General Objective
• Real Estate Market Research is
defined to be the systematic and
efficient surveying and analyses of
real estate and property markets (of
all kind of property) plus their
conditions and factors of influence.
This includes i.a. the collection,
weighting and valuation of information
about the real estate market (letting
and investment market), which are
directly or indirectly related to the
property by applying scientific
methods.
• Aim is security of capital investment,
plans or visions by figures
respectively forecasts.
21
Real Estate Research – the eternal data provider?
Quantity = Quality ?
• Nowadays a dozen companies report more or less often about the real estate
markets of an international city
• Increasing relevance of research as a strategic competitive factor – not solely a
vehicle for PR, but also in particular as a consulting tool
• But: Has the quality increased by broadening the basis?
Current potential reasons for shortness of quality
• Insufficient coverage because of lacking resources or market penetration
• Secrecy, protection of confidence at contract closing
• Information as „good“ – development of strategic value for the one who is
informed
• No global consistent definitions and criteria for data collection
• No global consistent differentiation of market areas
• Pressure-group policy / “improvement of data“
22
Real Estate Corporate Research
• Our survey shows that employees of European Real Estate companies “waste” an
average of 67 minutes a day with searching for information on markets.
• The lack of information might result in wrong decisions in the companies concerned.
• Useful information are the most important competitive factor at the market and thereby
the most valuable asset of a successful company.
• About two thirds employ fewer than 5 researchers per 100 employees. Only
companies that operate in the field of real estate market research have more than
50% of research employees.
• Nearly all surveyed companies are
doing market and location analyses
and data procurement/ analyses.
Almost equally important are market
forecasts - their importance and that of
office market reports will probably grow
in the future.
• It is mainly the quantitative methods
that will gain priority.
23
Current Situation of Real Estate Research Training
Field of Research (case of Germany)
114 real estate study programs (e.g. for real estate management, real estate
economics, facility management, real estate appraisal, urban and regional planning,
real estate and housing industry) are offered at 45 universities and at 22 technical
colleges plus 4 other institutions in Germany
BUT
No Standardised Training for Researchers
• No defined requirements for job access
• Most researchers access companies by internships
• In Germany approx. 2/3 of all researchers are either geographers or business
economists
• Approx. only 10% have participated in further training
• Reason for lacking job profile: fledgling discipline being first introduced by British
companies at the end of the 1980s (U.S. and UK have defined job profile of real estate
analyst resp. property analyst)
24
Long-term Objective
Establishment of an Independent Study Program for Real Estate Market Research
• Research / consulting employment is favoured fourth place by real estate students
after project development, asset and property management and appraisal
• In Germany the position of a real estate researcher is considered to be at entry-level,
most move to another real estate field after 2 or 3 years of professional experience
• Changing market conditions challenge researchers to adapt from a generalist to a
specialist view
Increasing demand of an independent study program
for real estate market research !
