What are Real Estate, Rental and Leasing Services? |
|
|
The Real Estate and Rental and Leasing sector comprises establishments primarily engaged in renting, leasing, or otherwise allowing the use of tangible or intangible assets, and establishments providing related services.
The major portion of this sector comprises establishments that rent, lease, or otherwise allow the use of their own assets by others. The assets may be tangible, as is the case of real estate and equipment, or intangible, as is the case with patents and trademarks.
This sector also includes establishments primarily engaged in managing real estate for others, selling, renting and/or buying real estate for others, and appraising real estate. In addition, a substantial proportion of property management is self-performed by lessors.
The main components of this sector are the real estate lessors industries; equipment lessors industries (including motor vehicles, computers, and consumer goods); and lessors of non-financial intangible assets |

Trends & Challenges |
|
|
| Recent years have witnessed radical changes in the structure and style of the Real Estate and Construction industry worldwide, be it the dramatic increase in the number of business opportunities opening up the world over or a slew of legislative mandates. |
|
| Industry trends demand that the players become boundary-less, agile, intelligent, and transparent |
|
| Boundary-less |
| Increasing globalization has forced the Real Estate and Construction industries to become truly transnational. Often, large players partner with local businesses to expand the market, focus on individual projects and at the same time project a unified-solution-provider capability to their clients. |
|
| Agile |
| Market dynamism demands an agile business, which is able to spot a quick opportunity, make a deal and quickly set down-stream processes into action. With the uncertainty in global economic parameters such as interest rate, currency exchanges and capital availability, it is imperative that businesses have the ability to remain lean and agile. Coupled with the trend of globalization, it becomes extremely important for businesses to be able to share policies, opportunities and risks at far greater speeds than before. The smaller the strike team and greater its enablement, the better are the overall results for the business. |
|
| Intelligent |
| Considering the huge lead times, payback periods and life spans of projects related to this industry, businesses need to base their projections on economic modeling, involving a whole range of parameters. The ability to analyze the complex web of business drivers and to predict the risk-benefit scenarios requires sophisticated tools rather than pure gut-feel or industry-experience-based heuristic judgment. Further, the need to partner with multiple vendors, customers, and sometimes, even competitors in this industry, has necessitated far greater creativity in deal structuring, risk analysis and project management. |
|
| Transparent |
| Legislation and mandates on corporate governance are forcing businesses to become more transparent and also have the ability to expose information to law-regulation agencies. Lawmakers are also keeping pace with the fluidity of the market forces and continue to react by often changing policies in taxation, accounting, international trade,
etc. |
