...Indiabulls Real Estate Ltd. “Focus is the single most important virtue that will lead us to our goals.” Sameer Gehlaut, Chairman, Indiabulls Real Estate Ltd (2007) If the essence of the Indiabulls story were to be communicated in one word, the word would be “focus”. Indiabulls began its journey as an online brokerage start-up in the year 2000, and within a span of mere 10 years it has become India’s largest retail brokerage firm, and one of the largest non-banking financial institutions in India. The group has achieved unparalleled growth – successfully venturing into real estate business, and power sector as well. Incorporated as the real estate arm of Indiabulls Financial Services Ltd (IBFSL), and demerged in 2006, Indiabulls Real Estate Ltd (IREL) has been involved in project development and construction, project management, investment advisory and other allied services in the real estate space. Indiabulls Power, incorporated in 2007 as a 100% owned of subsidiary of IREL, was also soon demerged keeping in line IBREL’s strategy of demerging its non-core businesses in order to remain focused. One rationale behind the step was that all companies need to be independent in order to attain focus and to ensure that one balance sheet does not, in any manner, affect the other. The second reason was that the firm did not want to expose their real estate shareholders to project execution risks of the power sector. The third rationale was that power business would eventually be...

...OB 5602 – Organizational Design Team Case Analysis Jones Lang LaSalle: Reorganizing around the Customer (2005) February 26, 2013 Team 5 Ravi Dawar James Sowers Joe Reinberg The Reorganization in Late 2000 From 1995 to 2005, the U.S. commercial real estate sector had undergone one of the most significant transformations of its history. Globalization led many American companies to seek out firms that could serve their real estate needs both internationally and locally in a consistent and comprehensive manner. They called these firms “integrated, global service providers”. Technological innovation also made the world a smaller place for real estate firms as sharing of information was made easier thanks to the advent of the internet and because of this, physical presence was no longer necessary. This led to a fierce competition between the global and local real estate firms. To differentiate their services, real estate firms started offering bundled service offerings, in which the same firm would perform all the key real estate operations such as leases, management, and construction. Jones Lang LaSalle (JLL) did not have a stronghold in the regional geographies and was not able to compete with the local boutique firms because of missing synergies between its three core business units: The Tenant Representation Group (TRG), Corporate Property Services (CPS), and Project & Development Services (PDS). These three units worked separately...

As in the real estate industry, service delivery is complicated by the presence of the customer at the point of service production.

Problem Statement Greater marketing and professionalism is now a requirement in the real estate industry, as is the service provided to procure a successful sale and or purchase.

...Determine the opportunities and challenges facing housing lenders and real-estate agents across ethnic subcultures. Lenders and real-estate agents face different opportunities and challenges among the African American and Hispanics in regards to the housing market. African Americans make up one of the major ethnic subcultures, representing 13 percent of the American population, where on average, are younger than the white population, have less education, and lower household incomes. “One-third of black households earn $50,000 or more and nearly 10 percent earn $100,000 or more” (Hawkins). African Americans are segmented as market leaders or market followers. Within those are generational differences which pose challenges when it comes to marketing because they don’t follow the stereotypical images that they have been subjected to. Many are “driving growth in income and purchase power through education and professional achievement. African Americans represent $799 billion in buying power, which is expected to grow by some 34 percent through 2011” (Hawkins). This fact gives lenders and real estate agents opportunity to implement specific marketing tactics. Internet usage among African Americans is on the rise, allowing marketers to leverage online-based advertising for example. Hispanics represent another major ethnic subculture and have diverse nationalities including people of Cuban, Mexican, Puerto Rican, South/Central America or any other Spanish ethnicity. “The Hispanic...

...A well looked after home is a sought after home. Give it a Paint Job A quick and fairly inexpensive way to grab the eye of any potential buyer is to give your house a fresh coat of paint. A newly painted home not only shows a buyer that you take care of your home, but it also allows a buyer to cross that job off their to do list. A new coat of paint goes a long way in the real estate world. If you do not want to repaint your entire house, then focus your attention on your home’s accent areas. These include the trim around windows and doors, the door itself or shutters. Before painting, it is a good idea to look at a few different colour schemes to find one that compliments the exterior of your home. Doors and Shutters One way to add another layer to any of your exterior windows is to add shutters. Shutters will instantly make your windows look larger and are a great way to break up an otherwise bland exterior wall. Make sure to choose a colour that strikes contrast with the colour of your home to really grab...

...The Process of Foreclosure Tabatha Prentice BUSN 121: Real Estate Practice Proffers: Steve Kipuros Foreclosure Process Intoduction Foreclosure is a process where a homeowner forfeits there rights to a property because they have failed to pay the mortgage. In some cases a bank may allow the property owner to sell their home via a short sale. If the bank will not grant a short sale the property will go to auction where it will either be sold or becomes bank owned. The word foreclosure has become a very dirty word, but it doesn’t just happen overnight it is a lengthy process. There are five major steps involved in all states missed payments, public notice, pre-foreclosure, auction, and post-foreclosure. Missed Payments The length of which it can take a bank to foreclose on a property can vary by state. Normally it will take at least three missed payments, but can take up to five before the foreclosure process will begin. There are programs out there available for homeowners to help them keep this process from ever being started that include everything from mortgage modification to government assisted programs. For most homeowners foreclosure has almost become of choice mostly related to the decrease in home values we are seeing more and more people who are house poor. Public Notice After a number of payments have been failed to be made the lender will seek out the County Recorder to issue a public notice. This notice can be called many different things depending...

...Chapter 4 we discussed how one can apply these models using real life and also synthetic (simulated) data. While realizing the limitations of the data used to apply these models, we discussed and developed an SDSS in Real Estate using GIS in Chapter 5. The purpose of this Chapter is to discuss the methods and techniques for updating the values of the parameters involved in the models from time to time using the data collected in SDSS. This is important since the real life is not static and ever changing and the future is highly uncertain and all the decisions that are made today are for the future. Accordingly, it is required that the decisions made today must be robust so as to be able to meet the challenges of the future turbulences to the extent possible as desired by the decision maker. 6.1. Parameters to Be Estimated There are various classes of factors that are relevant for real estate management and these have been classified in Chapter 5. The process by which all these factors affect the price of a particular real estate property can be very complex. Nevertheless one is required to forecast the price of a property from time to time. If one assumes that the actual price of a property ultimately reflects the combination of all these factors then one can consider prices of a property as the resultant time series process. As we have seen in Chapter 4, the hybrid model for forecasting price of a particular real estate property describes this process very well. However, one...
