The potential of real estate investment
Real Estate Expertise, how to exploit the potential of real estate investment
Quotidiano di Sicilia, 09/09/2017 We met Mr. Vincenzo Cavallaro, Founder and Owner of Real Estate Expertise, with the aim of having him explain the possibilities of real estate investment in our area.
Where did the idea come from or do you prefer the vision of Real Estate Expertise?
I have accumulated decades of experience in the banking sector first and then in the real estate sector, always in leading companies, I therefore wanted to combine the skills acquired and place myself in a market where I would have given my contribution. Today my company mainly deals with real estate disposals from investment funds, and in particular income properties leased to national tenants of proven solidity, as well as naturally carrying out the ordinary functions of a real estate agency.
How does your experience make your company different from others?
From the multinationals I worked for I acquired the need for a company policy: the internal rules make a normal company a structured company that profitably makes its know-how available to the customer. An approach to work of this type allows for a highly dynamic working model; furthermore we have unusual experience regarding those large, industrial, office and commercial properties, which are not usual for traditional agencies. The most disparate cases are challenges to be faced with effective problem solving and our business model allows us to be adaptable to the needs of the customer, but above all of their market.
What are income properties?
Income properties are a form of medium and long-term investment, which produces active and guaranteed profitability for the owner, not a short-term speculative investment. They are therefore alternative or integrative forms to normal forms of investment.
Who are the tenants of these properties?
They are companies in the telecommunications and energy sectors, banks, insurance companies, institutional brands; in any case high profile conductors.
Who is his interlocutor?
Referring to income properties, an entrepreneur or professional who wishes to diversify or protect the value of his assets, while simultaneously guaranteeing an income; you buy an income property also with the aim of capitalizing companies.
How much does this type of investment yield?
Normally we settle on an income value between 4.5% and 7.5%. For example, let's examine a property purchased for 500,000 euros, whose annual rent is 30,000 euros, this is a real case of profitability at 6% before taxes.
What are the conditions that make an income property an opportunity?
Certainly the solidity of the tenant and its positioning in the market as well as the corporate need to maintain the asset in question in the territory; the long-term rental duration; the tax impact on returns; the potential for conversion or redevelopment of the property itself, as well as the added value of the relevant land, from this perspective, entire buildings from heaven to earth are preferable. The advice of professionals with specific expertise helps to pay attention to all aspects of the case.
