Simon Burgess, Managing Director at Bedell Fund
Services attended a round table event hosted by Private Funds
Management ("pfm") to discuss the evolving landscape
regarding real estate investing and ongoing administration.
The event highlighted a number of key developments in recent years,
such as the onslaught of new and evolving regulation and tax
regimes. Also discussed were the options for real estate asset
managers to align themselves with relevant third party experts
covering legal, tax and administration to ensure that investment
structures are compliant and to enable the manager to focus on what
they do best, maximising returns.
It is safe to say that running a real estate investment
fund/structure is not as straight forward as it used to be, with
managers stating that they'd prefer to concentrate on
acquisitions, managing the assets and returning income and capital
to their investors. That said, London real estate is booming, and
with many managers and investors diversifying their investments in
to major European cities, the outlook for European real estate
looks positive.
