VOLUME 1 ISSUE 79

MSRED Students Get International Perspective
http://web.mit.edu/cre/education/intl-course_iap08...

When real estate developers build, they build communities. Thoughtfully, or simply by default, developers powerfully influence the way people interact.

But communities also powerfully determine how developers can build, and in different parts of the world, practices vary based on custom, government, geography, and wealth. What can these different practices teach the industry about the relationship between community and development?

MOODY'S/REAL COMMERCIAL PROPERTY INDEX (CPPI)
February Update
http://web.mit.edu/cre/research/credl/rca.html

The latest results of the Moodys/REAL CPPI show a decrease of 1.5% in December for the all properties national index. Among the national property types, the apartments sector showed the largest decline at 4.9% in the 4th quarter of 2007. Retail properties experienced a fall of 3.5% from the last quarter, whereas the drop for Office properties was modest at 0.4% for the same period. Industrial was the only property type to show an increase, albeit a small one (1%).
