The forum will take place at Red Rock Casino Resort & Spa, Las Vegas, Nevada, October 14-16, 2010. The meeting will bring together esteemed industry thought leaders and service providers to a highly focused and interactive networking event. The summit includes presentations on infrastructure investing, real estate, distressed investing, hedge
funds and risk management.
“The performance of real estate investments is strongly related to the effectiveness of your operating partners,” Steve Sadler, Managing Director at Real Estate Value Advisors, said.
“What we have seen is lackluster operations all over the country exacerbating the value decline that was driven by the credit crunch, banking crisis and the overall economic slowdown. Institutional investors in real estate should fix the operating component of their properties. It requires them to spend more time on the operating elements, the blocking and the tackling of running a property. Unfortunately, third party administrators whether they are large national firms or smaller regional firms, do not necessarily have their interests aligned with the owners of the property.”
“Investors need to understand what is going on at the fundamental level; pay attention to implementing the processes and procedures to ensure the strategic and investment priorities of the owner are of paramount importance to the third party administrator. It boils down to realizing what you are trying to achieve at the investment level, and making certain there is an alignment of interest in the contract with the administrators.” Sadler said
