Digitization is exceptionally useful when investing in real estate. Data are collected on the many hundreds of thousands of properties around the world concerning their year of construction, dimensions, level of sustainability, rental income and costs, transaction values, tenants, lease terms, distance to motorways and airports, et cetera. Our long history of real estate investments enables us to find the right data points in this sea of Big Data.

“Turning big data into investment decisions”
Jorrit Arissen

Every day, the Kempen Real Estate team collects 22.5 million relevant data points for 200,000 properties around the globe, processing these data in our data infrastructure into valuable investment information. The vast increase in available data helps us to make better assessments of the quality and risk of each real estate investment. This leads to better investment decisions and finally results in higher investment returns at lower risk for our clients.

“We apply a rigorous investment process with strong emphasis on balancing risks and returns”
Egbert Nijmeijer

Our team's continuous aim is to find those real estate investment opportunities that offer the optimal balance between risk and return. In analyzing risk our team will research the financial health and quality of worldwide available real estate companies. Important factors include the strength of balance sheet, the quality of the management, and the corporate governance and environmental impact of the company concerned. We exclude risks from our investment process that we cannot oversee such as regional differences in interest rates, currency movements and macro economic developments. We are a real estate specialist and all risk budget is assigned on the real estate itself. Based on the aggregate information, we will take a decision as a team on those investment opportunities that offer the best possible return against the lowest risk for our clients.

Kempen's Commentary

Last week, the US and China signed their ‘phase one’ trade deal. Even though the really difficult subjects will only be discussed in phase 2 (or perhaps even phase 3?), this is still a sign of relaxation between the two super powers. Moreover, the US no longer labels China as a ‘currency manipulator’. China has had that status since August last year. It must be said that the Chinese currency has risen sharply since then. The US deems it manipulation when a country pushes its currency downwards and not when this is done in an upward direction. A cheap currency strengthens the export position of a country, that’s why it’s considered as unfair competition.

Kempen Real Estate Update: Barbarians at the gates

A recurring and important question regarding all shapes and forms of prudent investing across all asset classes and instruments is “how do I get my money back?”. Whereas larger institutional investors may have the luxury of investing with nearly perpetual time horizons, for retail investors and institutional investors with stringent spending requirements (foundations, endowments, insurance etc..), this question is of the utmost importance as often they do not have this luxury option. With the recent suspension of trading at several UK open-ended retail property funds (also known as gating), and redemptions in one US ODCE fund, we explore this topic further and look into how investors can avoid being caught in gated property funds.
